Republicans have controlled Florida for 28 years. Yet, ads I’ve seen for republicans running for local or statewide office have focused on how expensive Florida is and claimed that they can lower the cost of living. So why aren’t they doing it already?
Do they really think voters are that stupid?

Somebody in the room needs the institutional authority to say:
“Mr. President… what the fuck is wrong with you?”
Apparently that position wasn’t included in the staffing plan.

I remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs.
We lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives.
Now, two unvaccinated people have died from measles.
What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

"Compared to day 1 of school last year, about 15,100 fewer students were enrolled in a traditional, district-run [Florida] public school to start this school year."
I'm not surprised. Who wants their kids to suffer daily indoctrination courtesy of DeSantis?

Preston Harp: I'd say since she was, like, 16, she's had an obsession with, um, gosh, how do I explain this? Um, she's written letters to other presidents, let me put it that way.

Preston Harp: Bush, obviously, during the Iraq war.

JUST IN: Two U.S. service members were killed after Iran attacked a military base in Jordan overnight. Another remains missing in action, and four were injured.
Since Trump launched the war with Iran nearly five months ago, 16 U.S. service members have been killed and 430 have been wounded.

Isn't it weird that this week a currently sitting president had to pay a woman MILLIONS of dollars for *raping* (and defaming) her—and the media has forgotten all about it?
There was a time that this would have been the ONLY story—until the rapist was driving from office.

FIFA has banned England defender Jarell Quansah for two matches over his red card against Mexico.
I guess we get the Prime Minister, the King, the Lord Mayor of London and Liz Truss to call them up to overturn it.
That’s how it works now, right?

No, Laura. It’s not “Antifa.” It was Patriot Front, a white nationalist organization. They covered their faces because they’re cowards who don’t want to be identified. We’ve been saying for over a year that ICE officers shouldn’t be allowed to wear masks either. They are cowards also.
