"Hey, what's that middle-aged comedian who spent his whole career making fun of politicians up to now?...oh."
Thank you!
"the least democratic branch" feels like a self-own.
THAT IS NOT CHEATING! THANK YOU! UNAPOLOGETIC SHOUTING!
Thank you! I was doing a lot of despairing, and it felt like this was a thing to do that wasn't that.
Also, he's fat now. It's for a thing. The specific thing being hypertensive heart disease.
all these universities kept axing medieval history departments as if they thought tyrants beefing with the Pope was going to stop being relevant

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:

1990: 25%

Just a couple of days left to pledge on this bad boy. Those stretch goals are lookin gooood
So sorry to hear that.

I also think one of the most important functions of in-person education with peers is that seeing other people get excited and curious about something makes it more acceptable for you to get excited and curious about something. Learning is social, and smart people make each other smarter
Eyewitness video from the scene of today's ICE shooting in California appears to (you guessed it) contradict officials' claims that the man "weaponized" his vehicle. The car is reversing and the agents appear to be well clear of it.
I am not one of those who believes that history repeats, but consider the following from Herodotus: the Oracle at Delphi told the fabulously wealthy King Croesus that if he invaded Persia he would "destroy a great empire." Croesus invaded and lost--the empire he destroyed was his own.
Also, the Synod of Whitby would like a word...
Remarkable that the agricultural inheritance tax changes which will affect less than 200 estates a year gets a long news report but insane changes to self-employed tax reporting which will burden millions with massive extra bureaucracy is completely ignored.
Impeachment is not some special exception from normal politics where you shouldn't say it unless you already have the votes in hand. You go out and plainly advocate what you think should be done, and attack those who refuse to do it, just like on anything else.
