The most confusing thing about the Matt Schlapp assault story is the phrase, "pummel my crotch at length". Did he actually punch it, or use karate? I mean, that is literally assaulting that crotch.
Moral of the story: never let Schlapp near your "staff". He will pummel it. At length!
Turns out TX Gov. Greg Abbott's little border stunt turned up zero drugs & arrested zero immigrants, but cost Texas taxpayers $4.2 billion. WHY DO VOTERS LET HIM GET AWAY WITH THIS HORSESHIT?
McCarthy's speech shows that he is incapable of learning the lesson of a disappointing midterm, brutal Speakership election, and now attempting to govern with razor thin margins consisting of barely sentient howler monkeys.
He will.

If you're in the military or in Putin's inner circle, you've got to be thinking about a coup as self-preservation at this point. Either that or staying on ground floors.
The birther crowd is awfully quiet about their guy George Santos. Could it be that among his many, many lies that it will turn out that he was never qualified to run for the office to which he was elected?
Christmas can be a tough time for many. A special Merry Christmas to anyone out there who is depressed or lonely. I've been there. You do matter to someone. May you find the connection you need in this world, or the contentment you need in being alone in this moment. Better times are ahead. Peace to you.

#Comedy which veers into #Science & #Religion, & lambasts US #Politics is prevalent now, but I still prefer Tim's take so often.
“…if the intention of progressives [is] to progress forward into a future of more empathy & understanding for more & more people, it cannot be… that the primary mechanism by which we're going to make that progress is the suppression of empathy & understanding for anyone who doesn't align with our beliefs.”
