After FL was hit by Hurricane Ian, they rebuilt a bridge to pine Island in 3 days. The Palisades fire was in January and Bass is celebrating the completion of 1 house that actually started the permitting process before the fires. Insane.
In a functioning city this would be announced not with pride but with shame.

Trump's ballroom being completed before burned down houses in California is going to be a hell of a Vance/Rubio talking point in 2028.

The story of Soviet-Nazi conflict in WW2 is a story of two gangbangers robbing their neighbors together, and then falling out over the loot.
'Russia' was not our "true ally" in WWII. The USSR launched WWII alongside Hitler, then was SHOCKED when Hitler betrayed them, then parasitically fed off US lendlease to massively expand their empire and renew their war with the West that they launched alongside Hitler.

Lot of problems with this message coming from this, uh, particular messenger, but also a fun opportunity to remind you that the "gender pay gap" in America is entirely due to married men crushing it. Everyone else is basically equal.
In many Western countries today, women are paid less than men for doing the same work. That’s how they are today, which is totally unjust.

This time eight years ago Durbin could have gotten statutory DACA in exchange for real wall money. He didn’t want to.
The Dream Act will never happen, and it's Dick Durbin's fault. Cheering on Joe Biden destroying the legal immigration system by prioritizing illegals and opening the border, there won't be political will for something like this in Dick's lifetime. Stupid games, stupid prizes.

The Tennessee results continued a trend of big swings toward Democrats compared to the last presidential results. But the party might have left an opportunity on the table.

it’s completely unsurprising that a doomer climate take was wrong but I’ll confess a mild surprise that someone admitted it just this once
"In April 2024, the prestigious journal Nature released a study finding that climate change would cause far more economic damage by the end of the century than previous estimates had suggested... On Wednesday, Nature retracted it." https://t.co/GfekOq1rLE

If frogs could fly, they wouldn’t bump their asses when they jump.
If Democrats match last night’s Tennessee House special-election swing nationwide, they’d be on track for roughly 250 seats.
