HMM:

It's really tempting to applaud that.

I'd rather have 84,000 US troops already forward deployed in Europistan, for when we need them there.

#RIGGED: New York Times Puts Elise Stefanik Third on Best Sellers List Despite Sales Data Showing She Had Top-Selling Title: The Times has not reviewed or covered Stefanik’s book, ‘Poisoned Ivies,’ as New York Republican accuses outlet of refusing to ‘acknowledge the crisis of antisemitism.’

THE HERO WASHINGTON DESERVES, NOT THE ONE IT NEEDS:

You can literally smoke crack, get caught in an FBI sting, go to prison, commit tax fraud, be a stalker, make racist remarks, and turn your city into a crime-infested hellhole, and Democrats *will still* build a statue of you. https://t.co/Ufv039c5Fh

CHRIS MURPHY IS A CLOWN, BUT A NASTY AND DANGEROUS ONE:

He's accusing others of anti-free speech…while threatening to destroy companies with government power for saying things he doesn't like.

Perfect. Just perfect. https://t.co/QDp5wqQsmp

FROM JEFF DUNTEMANN:  Whale Meat.

#CommissionEarned

Two 700-year-old witches in modern-day Chicago must confront a demand from the community of whales living in Earth’s oceans, that the witches’ unborn son join with them in their effort to heal the broken soul of humankind–with death the outcome should the child fail. Homeless, hungry, and mostly without hope, Yonnie and Mara find help in some unlikely places, including a young mathematics student struggling with calculus, and an alcoholic bum who is much more than he seems.
