LOL. This has "Sound of Freedom" written all over it. I'd love to see the "packed" movie houses it's supposedly playing to - I have little doubt they're still mostly empty and appear full only because wealthier MAGAs are buying tickets in bulk, just as happened with Sound of Freedom, where there...
Yep. The reviews section for Melania on Rotten Tomatoes is something - I don't think I've ever seen a movie with only a 6% fresh rating from critics and a whopping 98% fresh rating from "average people" (MAGAs or AI) who claimed to have seen the movie. Most of the 98% fresh reviews read like...
I think the issue this time is that the storm really won't last all that long in many places - starts after midnight and will be finished by 6 PM tomorrow for the most part. Add in the dry spots they're expecting and we're probably going to see the widest variation in snow totals from a storm...
A total joke. I love how she claims that she's just "repositioning" CBS News for the "21st Century" when it's clear from that list that all she's really doing is sucking up to Trump 2.0 and completely abandoning any journalistic standards the network had left and simply turning it into highly...
Yep. $75 mil is peanuts for somebody like Bezos to bribe the Trumps and get favorable treatment for his dealings with the government. And meanwhile he's letting the WaPo just die on the vine. Trump is clearly the ringleader of this epic disaster, but guys like Bezos also share a large part of...
As with nearly everything else related to the presidency, Trump has turned weekly cabinet meetings into a pathetic farce and endless stream of bullshit, egomania, and pure vanity. All his cabinet officials do at these meetings is compete to see who can kiss his ass in the most embarrassing and...
Not a fan of Reagan today, but as a young man straight from my parent's Republican home I did cast my first vote for president for him back in 1984. I will say that Reagan in his prime could give a helluva speech, and the Challenger speech that afternoon was one of his best. I still remember it...
No doubt. And given how much Trumpers generally hate one another, once there's blood in the water they all turn into sharks trying to devour one another and be the last shark swimming next to Daddy Shark Trump. I would imagine that any halfway competent reporter is going to have a field day in...
That's how I've always felt. The 2000 season (Guthridge's final season) was really hit-or-miss in the regular season, UNC was just 9-7 in conference play (18-12 total) and barely made the tournament, not unlike last year. Yet they went on a fantastic NCAA Tourney run and made the Final Four, so...
That could be said of a good many MAGA leaders and "influencers." No doubt some are simply grifters and con artists, but I think a good many are also seriously disturbed people who should be undergoing regular psychiatric treatment instead of actually running government agencies or serving in or...
True, but even during the football season I don't think the debate was as widespread or drew the same level of interest as the arguments over Hubert have. I do think there is a certain apathy about the football program (because of its longstanding mediocrity) that doesn't exist about the...
It's easy to tell which sport at UNC is dominant and gains the most interest. With Hubert there is a passionate debate about whether he is the right coach for the school and whether he should be let go at the end of the year, with Belichick most fans (not all, but most) have already accepted...
Diversity is as American as apple pie, and has been from the country's founding. Even among the white population there has always been diversity in national and religious origins (and nativist opposition to immigration, such as against Irish Catholics in the mid-1800s). And the nativist...
Their behavior and actions right after shooting these people - or seeing a fellow ICE agent shoot someone - gives them away. Calling them bitches just seconds after they were shot, laughing after a shooting, threatening people that they'll get the same treatment if they don't stop chanting or...
