The reflecting pool fiasco has taken another crazy turn with the drunk prosecutor decided to drop the case right before happy hour on Friday night. This is after Trump made a huge deal about vandalism which like most things he said was a lie.

Democrats have a near impossible purity test when it comes to vetting their own candidates. Troy Jackson who has always come across as a lame soccer dad caught having used an anonymous account to troll people which i think is a perfect scandal as it shows he's not afraid to mix it up and actually has a personality

As Trump goes from one chaotic terrible decision to another, he's starting to finally see his numbers drop. This might be the end of a 10 year swoon as the nations is ready to dump him like a bad taco. You do see less yard signs, less outwardly undivided love and less defense of his policy. Maybe America has started to come to its senses. Then again, probably not

Trump wants to rename Penn Station after himself which is one of those awful ideas he always seems to come up with. Penn is kind of a dump, so it does fit the bill although Moynihan station is amazing. I'm not willing to do him the honor if they improve Pen. but do think that we should call Port Authority after him because that place is everything Trump is.

FIFA is already in the running as the most corrupt sports entity in the world but now they want to add Jarred Kusher's family to make sure the IOC doesn't stand a chance. There is nothing those Trump's won't try to capitalize on and this is just another example of something they will inevitably ruin. Just leave futball alone, you scoundrels

I've gone 180 on the daylight savings thing. As a guy who gets up at 5am every morning to run, the idea of it being even darker when I'm running in the dead of winter sounds awful. The idea of going to work and waiting on a. Buss in pitch black sounds depressing and the idea of having the sun rise when I'm already at my desk sounds like torture. So I'm back to saying I'm all in for daylight savings.

The fact we can't even agree on the casualties in Iran tells you we've lost the narrative. We know Trump doesn't like soldiers who get captured or who die, so this can't be a good sign. When he's comparing it to Vietnam and Iraq, what he doesn't recognize is that he's comparing it to the two biggest embarrassments for our country, even if you hope to paint today positively. But we don't care as long as he can tell somebody that we won.

Trump ordering signs outside of the Smithsonian to tell people that slavery wasn't that bad. I don't think anybody sees that sign and walks into the museum and thinks seriously about that sign but the idea that tourist will see that sign and think what they assume it means for all Americans. I am so ready to not be embarrassed by my country again

LeBron ending up in Philadelphia wasn't a total surprise as it certainly offers him a landing spot on a team that came with the most talent. This is a contract with $8mlllion hit so they add talent at the cost of a role player. If he's ready to be the third option on a team and somehow take them to the promised land, the entire world would think differently of him. He's never not been about Team LeBron, so this will show if he's ready to be LeBron on a team

Having just watched The Odyssey, it got me to thinking that as silly as it sounds that these guys were all following the divine teachings of Apollo and Poseidon and why they worshipped certain seasons and objects. It all sounds crazy but honestly how much more crazy is that then a child born from the Virgin who was walking around the levant making random miracles, a burning bush on some mountain taking to an old man or some random 72 virgins waiting for me on the other side I'm to the point where all of this seems equal in their level of fantasy. Maybe next time I'm asked for my religion and I tell them I worship at the temple of Zeus

Nearly two decades ago we all waited with bated breath for The Decision but now it's as if nobody cares. Maybe we're just past LeBron, maybe as a Knick fan it just doesn't move the needle or maybe it's just time to go away. We know he can still play but holding the NBA hostage for these stupid made for TV things turns you from a media darling to a villain for the 2nd or 3rd time. Just go away.

Here I was planning on having a picnic in the New Jersey Transit bathroom but I find out that both paper towels and cups are strictly forbidden. I'm not sure how they enforce this unless somebody pays me down to make sure that's not a Dixie cup in my pants and not sure what they would do if I was caught. Maybe they'd take away my bus pass or make me stand on the bus for a hour into midtown through the Lincoln Tunnel during rush hour

We've lost two servicemen, we've had dozens other injured, we've lost our standing in the world and soon we are going to lose our FIFA peace prize because the price of gas is going to spike. We are down to a bare minimum in our reserves and every time we get these interruptions I feel like we are just about to blow up our economy. But the good news is we have those Epstein files deep and buried.

Trump staying on the stage after the conclusion of the World Cup is exactly what you'd expect out of an elderly uncle going through Alzheimer's who is lost and confused when he shows up somewhere But his action is more megalomaniacal than pure cognitive decline as he needs everything to revolve around him. God forbid he lets the champs have a moment without him stomping all over their moment with his mismatched jacket and pants after he soiled his first pair and his orange complexion but I guess this is what you deserve as the FIFA world peace winner.

Watching the 3rd place game today felt like watching the NBA all start game. No defense, unlimited scoring and the best player in the world just going crazy and although fun, there just isn't a good reason to have this game as it makes a mockery of the game and skews the stats for the tournament but you can also just get off my lawn

I was anti iceberg lettuce before it was a thing. Mostly because it's got zero nutritional value and tastes like sponge water but more recently try because I won't want to be sitting on the can blowing liquid from my five hole. The world is coming around and now everybody is complaining that they are pissing out of the asses

It's time for Trump to slap some big tariffs onto Canada for all of this wildfire smoke. I walked out of my office and felt like I walked into the back of the plane in 1985. My eyes burned, my throat burned and my nose burned, although maybe this is a good training session in anticipation of my trip to aching

House democrats are finally starting to sound humane after finally starting to push back on Israel. Say what you will, there is no justification to what Israel has done to the Palestinians over the last fe years even if you start only on October 7th. This isn't just Gaza, this is the West Bank and the forgotten Golan Heights. This isn't political, this isn't national and this isn't about security, this is genocidal atrocities committed by a state that we fund.

I am at the point where I don't think anything in politics matters. When Kindsey Graham died, he wasn't replaced by the most capable person but instead by his sister who we assume is likely just as awful as him. She has no qualifications, no political experience and will now stand for seat she didn't run for and the people of South Carolina didn't ask her to take. It's due time that we call a snap election when one of these dinosaurs croaks.

We're at that part of the story when discussing an ICE killing of an unarmed person in broad daylight, it's not unreasonable for somebody to ask "which one are you talking about?" We have become a country which shoots its own citizens for protesting for human rights. We are a country which worships a depraved human as its leader and we are a country where corruption is so rampant that it's just a shrug moment. If we lived anywhere else with that murders row of awfulness, you'd want to get the heck out of dodge.
