    Founders Sing is back with another AI musical parody of Trump's habit of snoozing during his trials. Life can be hell when you can't get any Adderall or out on the golf course. I just hope he wakes up in time for the reading of the verdict and the sentencing.

  • Peter Meijer Ends Senate Bid in Michigan
    Political Wire, Friday - 04/26/2024 - 10:02 PM

    Former Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI) is dropping his bid for Michigan’s open Senate seat, CNN reports.

    In the early morning, one can hear the birds perched on trees around the Gaza Solidarity Encampment at Columbia University. Farther off, there are sounds of protest and counterprotest. But inside the camp itself—technically the second camp after the New York Police Department cleared out the first and caused even more national attention to focus on this campus lawn—the resistance is often quieter if steady: a community formed to call for ceasefire, divestment, and the end to war. This is a village built overnight.

    Crooks and Liars, Friday - 04/26/2024 - 02:53 PM

    Republicans sure have changed, huh? As if Talking Point USA's Charlie Kirk wasn't bad enough, he somehow decided to bring Curtis Yarvin, an anti-democratic blogger, on as his guest.
