Foul on the Play: Trump Pays for Political Ad With Tax Dollars (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Like many of you, I like to spend a leisurely Sunday afternoon watching football. Carolina Panthers football, specifically. It’s a time to let go of whatever unfathomable bullshit Trump has spewed all week long. I treasure this routine. I look forward to it.

There’s a Special Place in Hell … (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Trump Just Wants to be a Wedding Planner … So, Let Him (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey, I’ve got an idea! Let’s just go ahead and tough it out with J.D. (“Just a dick”) Vance for a couple of years and free Trump to become what he has always wanted to be: a wedding and events planner.Sure, it’s a little unusual for an 80-year-old to start a new career but it should be obvious by now to even the most dunderheaded MAGA disciple that Trump is only happy when planning splashy events and discussing venues. Can’t you picture him futzing with the florals and zhuzhing the place setting
