The Felon in Chief said, "I’m sure Biden didn’t have any idea that it was taking place, and somebody was using an autopen to sign off and to give pardons."

Biden literally went on TV and explained why he was preemptively pardoning people, but he "didn't have any idea" about it? Get the fuck out of here.

"Since the start of this current bird flu in 2021, egg production has only fallen by 3.5%. But even that picture is misleading, because American egg consumption has dropped over the same period by 7.5%."

"Several photos of an Army Corps of Engineers dredging project in California were marked for deletion, apparently because a local engineer in the photo had the last name Gay. And a photo of Army Corps biologists was on the list, seemingly because it mentioned they were recording data about fish – including their weight, size, hatchery and gender."

Grading scholarship essays, I get to see a lot of unusual spellings for human given names. Could we maybe stop slapping the letter Y into every name? It's not edgy, it's just confusing. You're sentencing your child to a lifetime of spelling their name aloud.

The Supreme Court held that an officer must themself be subject to Senate confirmation unless they are “directed and supervised” by someone else who was themself confirmed by the Senate. In other words, the Senate cannot be cut out entirely.

How the fuck is this our country right now?
