Crazy how the KKK calls its leader the Grand Wizard. Are you a hate group or LARPers, make up your mind already.

I just voted - for the tenth time - for Congressman Hakeem Jeffries to be the next Speaker of the House.

Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit, the sex trafficker from Florida just voted for the sex offender from Florida.

President Emmanuel Macron pledged to provide AMX-10 RC armored vehicles in a phone call with President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine.

Also on Wednesday, Mr. Biden confirmed, in response to a reporter’s question, that the United States was considering sending Bradley vehicles, which would broaden the array of weapons being provided to Ukraine.

Another day, another humiliation for Kevin McCarthy and the GOP as the chaos caucus continues to block his election as Speaker of the House.

And as if you needed another reason to break out the popcorn, now Trump is trying to get in on the act and failing miserably to move the needle for McCarthy.

In fact, chaos agent Matt Gaetz just clapped back at Trump using one of his own well-worn lines against him. 😂

I mean can we just look at seriously. This Republican Party cannot even sort themselves out to run the House and people would vote for these jokers to run the country again. It’s full of fools, frauds and total fuckery fopdoodles.

I have a new op-ed out in The Daily Beast about why Kevin McCarthy is losing the speaker vote so badly, and although I'm a little harsh on him (okay, pretty harsh), I don't think I'm wrong.

Went out in the rain to photograph this pair of rock-hopping crystal wyverns!

Has anyone tried turning the House of Representatives off and then back on?

Holy shit 🚨
Mike Flynn protests way too much that he doesn’t know what QAnon or “Q” is and then admits “it’s a damn good psyop.”

I have been saying this for two and a half years. Thanks Q.
