This is exactly right. The Onion quietly left Twitter a month ago and... our weekly subscribers went up. It's because we're doing well here, on Instagram and on YouTube.

As a business, being on Twitter is somewhere between useless or detrimental, unless you're selling boner pills.

Fuck ICE.
Abolish ICE.
Prosecute ICE.

If you have a problem with that, unfollow me, stop coming to my shows and STOP calling yourself a Christian.

GOP Adds β€˜ICE Kills Everyone’ Pillar To 2026 Platform WASHINGTONβ€”Adopting a new set of national policy positions ahead of this year’s midterms, top GOP leaders released an updated party platform Tuesday to introduce their official β€œICE kills everyone” ag...

β€œIn our continuing fight to make America great again, it is vital we maintain Republican control of the government so we can ensure the extrajudicial killing of all U.S. citizens at the hands of ICE officers,” said Republican National Committee chair Joe Gruters

KO'ing everyone's 401k the week they started bragging about murdering citizens in the street on camera is the behavior of people who are on actual drugs. Not metaphorically, it's the behavior of people with underlying mental illness on uppers and steroids who are starting to feel cornered.

Maduro's not a good guy, agreed. But neither is Putin, and Trump rolled out the red fucking carpet for him. It's not about dope, it's about oil (which kinda IS dope).
Just when you think Trump has hit the gutter, he bounces lower.

From Russia With Love is such a funny movie. The Training School for Evil Henchmen is something that bond parodies wished they could do, but they can't, because they already did it as part of a real bond film

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

I don’t think I have it in me to be a rich person. For >$40k I’d feel compelled to learn an actual skill like juggling or glass eating. Klein better be able to shoot a crossbow with his butt or something.

The orange felon says the Epstein Files are a β€œDemocratic Hoax” and yet he still felt it necessary to doctor documents and hide evidence whilst redacting everything that would be damaging to him.

That’s called GUILTY AF.

Don't need to imagine, Sinatra had something to say about multicultural liberal democracies 🧡

Article 22 is a jewelry company that repurposes Vietnam War shrapnel and battlefield debris. A portion of their profits goes to the Mine Advisory Group, which works to remove landmines still left in Laos (they've removed more than 300k mines!). I like the company's "Shard" necklace collection.

We’re going to build a high-speed rail network that will connect millions of Canadians, build our economy, and create thousands of high-paying careers.
