Hey @TheCoffeeBean, you really need to bring back the dark chocolate flavor. I’m sure some analyst somewhere decided it wasn’t profitable enough, but maximizing profits isn’t everything.
When your politics want the economy to be bad, and your information bubble says the economy is bad, but the data keeps showing the economy isn’t bad, you could consider the possibility that wishful thinking is distorting your analysis. Or you could declare that reality isn’t real
We've seen recent articles about the high number of CIA informants being killed. Can we talk more about how this attitude of Trump and his GOP enablers, dismissing the danger of leaving these documents lying around, is creating the environment that is getting real people killed?
Byron York on Fox News speculates that Trump may have held on to classified documents simply because "he really liked momentos" and "souvenirs"

Israelis concerned documents Trump took when he left office could compromise their security. Just another reminder to those who argued Trump was the most pro-Israeli president -- ever. He wasn't.nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…
Helpful new statement from the National Archives and Records Administration debunking some of the copious documents-related nonsense from Trump and allies. Two examples: archives.gov/press/press-re…
Trump is like someone learned about what was fancy by watching Dallas, Knots Landing, and Days of Our Lives. Then because of mental illness, he never evolved from that. Then because of syphilis his brain rotted from the inside. Then he designed a golf club in Florida.
Obviously the bathroom chandelier is an incredibly powerful object here, but I'd also like to highlight the smaller secondary toilet chandelier as the real star of this show
I know @StephenAtHome is too classy to comment on Licht's management of CNN, but I sure wonder how disappointed he is in his old producer.
"Licht continues to stand by the concept of the town hall, telling people both inside and outside of CNN that history will look kindly on the network’s decision to interview Trump in front of cheering supporters in a live town hall format." cnbc.com/2023/05/16/cnn…
When you’re a star, CNN let’s you do it.
"If you were to pay me is there any way the media can find out where it came from and how much?" —Brett Favre
Favre: I got to spend a little time with Tucker and much like yourself. Just a genuine good guy.. I got the impression of what you see is what you get and that’s important so I’m for the good guys
In case you needed more evidence that Justice Thomas is immoral: he also made up insulting stories about his sister and her family to fit his ignorant narrative.
Your periodic reminder that Clarence Thomas used to smear his own sister as a shiftless, welfare-dependent layabout in speeches to his Heritage Foundation pals, and when reporters tracked her down, his story turned out to be extremely fake greensboro.com/thomas-sister-…
American Taliban
Abusing the machinery of the state to impose Christianity on every child in Texas is not religious freedom—it's a gross violation of religious freedom. When you tear down the wall of separation between church and state, you trample the religious freedom of us all.
Just the Taliban by another name.
I’ve not heard the goals of Christian nationalism stated so plainly. If you are a Christian who hears this and recoils, someone of a different or no faith, understand, this is the reality of the ideology attempting to take over school boards, cities, states, and the country.
Imagine the freakout if another network said “We need to win this race” while referring to a Democrat. Fox personalities speak like that every single day and that’s not even including the misinformation, disinformation, misleading stories and conspiracy theories pushed on Fox.
Can we get a @KevinMKruse ruling on the accuracy of Ramaswamy's history, please?
according to the NYT this interview that Don Lemon conducted last week with Vivek Ramaswamy played a role in his firing. Note co-host Poppy Harlow sitting silently while Lemon goes after Vivek.
Giant tax prep companies (looking at you, TurboTax) line their pockets by lobbying to keep tax filing an expensive hassle, even though the IRS already has a bunch of the data it needs from filers. But it doesn’t have to be this way:
Hey @Lobosjrgaming ran across the mosquito repellent ad on my timeline. Is this why we can’t get progress on Elden Bros? I hope they didn’t have any nonalcoholic beer around the shoot. fb.watch/jFzr1gVpj5/?mi…
