Your regular reminder that the Electoral College was not designed to do what you think it does, and it does neither what it was designed to do nor what you think it does. It is a game-able, democracy distorting appendix and there is no legitimate defense of it.

It’s more than this. The Thomas bribery scandal is the biggest corruption scandal in the history of the United States. Bigger than Teapot Dome, bigger than Watergate. It is huge because Thomas has legalized bribery while taking bribes.

There is one certainty in all of this: there are more lavish gifts, more lavish trips that he continues to hide, knowing that it is illegal to do so. Clarence Thomas has competition, but is the clear gold medal winner as the most corrupt justice ever

Tim Walz taught his high school students so well about geography and data analysis that they correctly predicted the Rwandan genocide a year before it happened.🤯

Every article about Red Lobster filing for bankruptcy is "ha ha endless shrimp, what did they think would happen" and then buried ten paragraphs down is the usual:

The following year, Darden sold Red Lobster to Golden Gate Capital, a private equity firm, for $2.1 billion. To help fund the deal, Red Lobster spun off its real estate assets in a transaction known as a sale leaseback agreement. Red Lobster had long owned its own real estate but would now be paying rent to lease its restaurants.
