The Onion has agreed to a new deal to take over Infowars The Onion says it has a new deal to take over conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' Infowars media company. If approved, the satirical news website could turn Infowars into a parody of itself.

He’s a piece of shit and needed to be silenced long ago

The Inside Story of Five Days That Remade the Supreme Court

Wow. The NYT has obtained internal memos that show the birth of the shadow docket.

When you read about how the justices responded to Obama’s use of executive power, compare it to how they’ve responded recently, when there’s a lunatic in the Oval Office.

Odd, I’m pretty comfortable with who I am and what I’ve done and do, but I’m so damn angry with everything. It’s as if a selfish minority just continue to kill everything that is nice.

Take care

Black and white night photograph of a lone figure entering the Oak Park CTA Blue Line station. The illuminated vestibule glows against the surrounding darkness, with turnstiles and station signage visible behind the subject, who is caught mid-stride in slight motion blur.

Man in a rust beanie sits absorbed in a book on a granite ledge, warm golden light on his face. Behind him, bold red geometric forms of a Calder stabile slash across the frame against a dark glass building.

#Orban stayed so long because:

He rewrote election rules.
He dominated the media.
Used state resources to reward loyal regions.
His base always turned out.
Opposition stayed split for years.
Nationalist messaging resonated with many voters.
Elections were free but not fully fair.

Sound familiar?

My bet is the Orbán is in the US (most likely Florida) by May 1st

Blockading a blockade is the work of a pure stable genius like no one has ever seen before. Only Donald Trump could have thought of this.

It's like, "You think you can shoot at us? Well, we'll show you—we'll shoot ourselves!!"

We should all have tears in our eyes.
