- Do I really have to explain why Kate McKinnon is a bigger loss to SNL than Pete Freaking Davidson???
- I will say this again — if Sanders is the nominee in the fall, and you don’t vote for him, the second Trump term is on you, not him and not his supporters and not the Democratic Party.
- Dear Headline Writers: Mnuchin is not “declining a request.” He’s breaking the law.
- Jon Stewart has gotten conspicuously angry in public twice. The first time, he got Crossfire cancelled. The second time, he got this bill passed. He's already contributed more to American politics than Newt Gingrich has in 30 years.
- If Ted Cruz were an ordinary dude, and he did a Mexico roundtrip in less than 17 hours, the DEA would be waiting on his lawn when he got home.
- So does half your political party, Ace.You’ve got this, Mr. President. 👊
- I am not kidding. We need UN election observers in Georgia...the state, not the country.
- I’m coming to the conclusion that William Barr’s summary of the Mueller Report was not made in good faith.
- I have never underrated a public figure the way I underrated Joe Biden in 2020.
- 13 people got shot in Milwaukee last night. 10 people shot to death in a Buffalo supermarket today. THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN IN OTHER COUNTRIES
- Just as the Republican Party sets out to whitewash American history in our schools, here comes Ken Burns with a bucket of cold water. Well done.
- Let us be clear. The hiring of Steve Bannon as a WH policy adviser is exactly the same as hiring David Duke. Please don't normalize this.
- A reminder that, when JFK made the commitment to go to the moon, the top tax rate was 91 percent. When Apollo 11 landed, it was 77 percent. Now we “can’t afford” to pay for anything.
