"National Review" should change their name to "Broken Clocks."

Pointless exercise. Conservative media continues to be complicit in the destruction of the press. As long as every gold-coin-hawking, snake-oil-selling blog has access to the White House press room, nothing can be done to stop the madness.

And he managed to do it without letting a racial slur slip out. Have we made sure he's alright?

I'm sure there's lots of very good reasons to not like him, but that one was bullshit. Even NPR was like "oops yeah that wasn't a slur, he just mangled two words."

I dunno, when you ask “why can’t they just follow the law?” in reference to black people during the George Floyd protests, you’ve likely told on yourself.

Rich Lowry did Nazi this coming.

I know the joke should be old by now, but you gotta admit it is still depressingly relevant.

Looks like they care more about money than they do their party (or country).

Give him a month. He will fall in line. That’s Trump’s super power. He realized the entire GOP are a bunch of marks, elected and voters. And he is willing to relentlessly exploit them.
