Veep was the most accurate show about American politics.
According to a new report from active-duty and retired FBI agents, there was a bit of an issue when Patel arrived at Provo in the aftermath of the Kirk assassination: he would not leave the plane without an FBI raid jacket. They found a female special agents' jacket for him. But

People always be like, "Why are you libertarian?" And people like Pete Hegseth help me explain why: because we are governed by immoral egomaniacs who have the maturity of a sixth grader. Why would I want them to have *more* power?

Also: It is a MYTH that the golden age for homeownership was in the 1950s. A higher percentage of people own homes *today.* And the ones in the ‘50s were often small, janky & without air conditioning. The best time to be alive is today.

A depressing number of people seem to genuinely believe that the world has robbed them of marriage, kids, etc. when those things are still very much available to those who want them. “They” didn’t take anything from you. Get off your ass and ASK SOMEONE ON A DATE

No one took this from you, actually. I receive approximately 16 photos like this as Christmas cards every year. You can still get married, have kids & take a photo by a fence. If you think otherwise, then you are a resentful snowflake whose brain has been ravaged by the internet.

I started at Reason when I was 11 because we practice what we preach when it comes to relaxing child labor laws. Thank you for your attention to this matter

AI agents aren’t hype anymore. They can manage your inbox, prep your meetings, and even take actions in your browser. @Altimor (CEO of Lindy AI) showed us how he uses agents every day to run his work life. This is the future of productivity.

The only reason Habba was not born in Iraq is because the U.S. allowed her parents to come & escape persecution. She rose to a powerful government position, which is a true American success story. "America is America because we protect our own" is just crazy coming from her.

Just amazing. If Alina Habba really believed what she says about immigration, she should move to Iraq, the country her parents left shortly before she was born. Do people not think about their families before speaking like this?
Habba: There were individuals that were saying that this should be a safe harbor, a safe haven. Why? America is America because we protect our own.

Marco Rubio thanked Trump the other day for always putting "God first." It's one thing to support someone for their policies. But stop pretending that Trump, Hegseth et al. are upstanding examples of Christian family values. No one with critical thinking skills can buy that.

Pete Hegseth got divorced from his first wife after admitting to 5 affairs. He has since been married to two other women & has acknowledged more infidelity, including while his third wife was pregnant. Not sure he should be the poster boy for the party of family values.

I’m so tired of this dishonest framing. Once again: This “dying veteran” is a multimillionaire who founded 1-800-FLOWERS. He sold Katy Perry his house, regretted it & then spent years trying to keep her from her property. The Post is doing his crisis PR, and it’s absurd.

It really is a bit wild to think that Elon Musk has defined himself as a defender of the First Amendment. If you’re arguing that people should go to prison for using the word “fascist,” then you do not care about free speech. It doesn’t just apply to content you vibe with.

This argument that much of the right is going with—that calling a something “fascist” is tantamount to murder—is no better than the progressive urge to call everything racist or sexist or whatever. It just shuts down conversation and tells me you can’t engage on the merits.

When you see someone make this argument, all they’ve told you is that they aren’t capable of making one. There’s nothing more breathless than accusing people of homicide for the crime of disagreeing with you. Elon needs to stop pretending he cares about free speech.
Falsely labeling non-violent people as “fascist” or “Nazi” should be treated as incitement to murder

No you’re not entitled to a house in your dream city, vacations, or excess money to spend on gifts This mindset is the result of growing up in the luxury of a Western country without any understanding of how modern comfort is created: through hard work and smart choices
I don’t think it’s controversial to say that anyone who works 40 hours a week should have enough money to buy a house, go on a holiday each year, afford Christmas presents and be able to turn the heating on.

I’m a bit stunned by the bad logic I keep seeing from smart people. “One migrant did something bad so all migrants are bad” is not an argument. It wouldn’t fly if applied to all men, or all Christians, or whoever. It is the way an elementary schooler thinks.
