- Trump paid Stormy Daniels $130,000 to spank him. Kamala did it for free.
- Watch: the “dogs and cats in Ohio” urban legend was the project of a liberal stealth guerilla who sent letters and made calls to the offices of JD Vance planting the fake story. Of course, that’s not true but it’s a totally feasible manipulation of the VP nominee.
- Kamala Harris walked onto that stage calm, prepared and confident. Trump was disheveled, unprepped, and typically angry. It’s indicative of how seriously they would take the job they’re applying for.
- At this point, Trump’s campaign doesn’t plan to win the election; . What they assumed was a sure win is now increasingly looking like a likely loss, and the fact that they never put a significant ground game in many states will be their downfall. But that’s what you get when you put your pop singer daughter-in-law in charge of the Party.
- The post-debate MAGA spin was upended by Trump showing up in the spin room. But the ongoing denial about how poorly Trump did demonstrates how fragile Trump’s ego is: no one dares tell him he isn’t perfect for fear of
- Maybe the debate coaching team of Laura Loomer, Tulsi Gabbard and Matt Gaetz wasn’t chosen well.
- With Loomer taking her place next to Trump, Alina Habba now knows what Marla Maples felt like.
- That Taylor Swift woman, she’s got a way with words, which could swing an election.
- Because they’ll never be given a post requiring Senate confirmation, watch out for the authors of the 2025 Project sneaking into government slots with Congressional offices or judges’ clerkships. They will do anything they can to destroy government from within.
- Harris immediately proposing a second debate was genius. Trump can’t win: if he debates, he gets beaten again; if he refuses, he looks scared. At every turn, Harris is outplaying Trump.
- Knock wood that we’ll never find out, but if Trump ever gets the power again, he’ll pardon Hannibal Lector. I’d bet on it.
- While Clarence Thomas, in his originalist viewpoint, says “arms” can’t be regulated, the Constitution says nothing about bullets, because bullets hadn’t been invented yet. So it’s completely constitutional to tax the fuck out of bullets and make 2nd Amendment proponents go back to musket balls, as the Founders originally envisioned. Maybe parents would hide them from their kids then.
- Outside of Elwood Edwards, the voice of “You’ve got mail!” for AOL, no phrase is so linked to a voice as iconically as James Earl Jones’s “I am your father!” and “This is CNN.”
- Republicans’ true motive is hilariously transparent with their new report on responsibility for the flawed withdrawal from Afghanistan laying a surprising amount of responsibility on the Vice President, because the VP has so much authority in military decisions. Sheesh.
- No one is shocked that so many rightwing media figures are financed by Russia. The C-level influencers and podcasters are so bad, they’re not commercially viable without sugar daddy donors.
- The first time I ever had Cincinnati chili, a friend in college made a pot and the rest of us thought he fucked up the recipe. Years later, while in Cincinnati, I realized he hadn’t. It’s not a chili so much as it’s a sauce, with a unique taste that stretches the definition of chili.
- I gotta be honest: it’s very difficult being random this week.
