And she was an entrepreneur who made - wait for it - biblical fucking sleepwear!
Sheโ€™s worse.

This is not a joke. This is actually the reflecting Pool in Washington DC today. Donald Trump wasted $10 million of our money on this. No wonder why he bankrupted multiple casinos.

Instead of discussing how Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire, we should talk about how he killed hundreds of thousands of people through his dismantling of food and medical aid to poor countries currentaffairs.org/news/how-โ€ฆ

The video captures a deeply emotional climax from the classic film "An Affair to Remember" (1957), portraying a tearful reunion and a moving emotional turning point between the two lead characters, played by legendary actors Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr.

Today, Elon Musk, a trillionaire, pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500. If we end that absurdity and lift the cap on taxable income, we can make Social Security solvent for 75 years and expand benefits by $2,400. My Social Security bill does that.

The final line of SOME LIKE IT HOT (1959) was originally a placeholder. Billy Wilder & writer planned to replace it with something better, but never found anything they liked more. It ended up becoming one of the most famous closing lines in cinema.

"This Sunday nightโ€™s UFC spectacle on the South Lawn...captures something about this moment in our history. It's vulgar, violent, commercial, grandiose, tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, itโ€™s Donald Trump." open.substack.com/pub/thebulโ€ฆ

RT @caslernoel: Trump left the White House around noon on Friday; he is just now returning, we have been paying for a geriatric drug addictโ€ฆ

For years CNN propagandist Jake Tapper spent his days attacking President Bidenโ€™s mental capacity and his age and now heโ€™s attacking First Lady Jill Biden, but heโ€™ll never attack the orange felonโ€™s treasonous crimes nor his old age nor his racist lunacy. Jake is a disgrace.

I also watched all 4 eps in one sitting. #loverafa
I'm not usually one to watch an entire series in one sitting, but when I learned that Netflix had released a four-part series on @RafaelNadal, I simply had to do so because (1) I am a fan of tennis and its history, and (2) I so admire his tenacity and talent. What I learned from this series is that Nadal competed not just against his opponents, but against his own body and his unconquerable will to compete for competition's sake. Against all of these opponents, seen and unseen, he chose to fight until the bitter, bitter end. He said that his will to persist against his adversities earned him an extra 10-12 Grand Slam championships, and those championships vaulted him to the very top rungs of the GOAT conversation. His accolades would have been amazing in and of themselves had he achieved them while completely healthy, but for him to do so while in chronic pain is something that is beyond description. All he wanted to do was to find out what his absolute limit was, and, in the end, he earned the satisfaction of getting that answer. Because of that, he was able to retire with a clear mind and with the peace that comes with ultimate finality. Nadal is an athlete to be admired, and the effects of his legacy will be felt for as long as time exists. I'm glad I spent the last several hours learning more about this great champion, and I recommend that you should do so as well. Enjoy!

While openly gay and married to a man, Scott Bessent refuses to mention Pride Month or Trump's campaign against LGBTQ people. When it comes to identity politics, Bessent identifies as a rich white man and his flag is a $250 bill with Trump's face on it

Jake Tapper is going after Jill Biden because Jake Tapper is a pussy who will happily attack a woman while being too afraid to criticize Trump. Jake is a bitch.

It would be kinda cool if they made the removal of his name from The Kennedy Center a live tv event with Stephen Colbert hosting it.

A message to all sane Republicans: He pardoned 1,600 violent criminals. You said nothing. He bulldozed the East Wing. You said nothing. He interfered with the release of the Epstein files. You said nothing. He took over the Kennedy Center and renamed it after himself. You said nothing. He accepted a $400 million airplane as a personal gift. You said nothing. He threatened Canada, Cuba, Denmark, Greenland, Venezuela, Colombia, and Brazil. You said nothing. He tariffed just about everyone but Russia, causing inflation and instability worldwide. You said nothing. He attacked a nation during mediated negotiations. You said nothing. His ill-conceived war killed 175 children on day one. You said nothing. He alienated and insulted our allies. You said nothing. His ICE Army terrorized and murdered U.S. citizens. You said nothing. He committed murder on the high seas. You said nothing. He co-opted the Justice Department and directed it to prosecute his political enemies. You said nothing. Itโ€™s time to start talking.
