two women are working in a kitchen with a sign above them that says kitchen
Alt: Lucy and Ethel are frantically trying to keep up with boxing the candies on a conveyor belt but they are coming too fast so they start eating them.

We’ve collectively forgotten more Trump scandals in the past eight years than we remember. It’s like Lucy in the candy factory; no matter how hard we try to keep up, they came too fast.

It's a bit of a bummer that the story today has been "look at this absolute doofus of a senator" and not "Jack Smith once again credibly accuses the president of many serious crimes"
A phenomenal moment in the Senate.
Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta.
Smith denies it.
Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury.
Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland.
WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED

I’m a 55 year old, out of shape woman, with fibro and long covid and I could do around 65% of these activities 🙄
So basically an elaborate field day for kids.
How many millions do we think Trump pocketed from this Patriot Games scam?

Can't think of a thing that will radicalize a generation faster than "you've gotta let that old man in the corner over there see what's inside those pants before you play Kindergarten volleyball."
An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play

So if I order #OliveGarden from GrubHub, does the driver have to show his ID at the restaurant? Do I have to show my ID to the driver? What if I order it for an underaged babysitter? Can Scalise explain further? 🤔

I hope our leaders are cognizant of the fact that Iran is clearly forcing these deployments to Israel on purpose.
Going after Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan depletes interceptors that were being used to protect Israel.
Now our assets are moving to a less-defended Israel. 🙃
