Slouching into the year.
So after all the SEC whining about not having more teams in the CFB playoffs, they have exactly ONE team left in the semi-finals. And that team, Texas, just joined SEC in July 2024 AND needed 2 OTS to beat Arizona State.
Don’t look now… but the San Antonio Spurs are growing up before our eyes. And turning into a pretty d*mn basketball team. (Just upset the Denver Nuggets.)

Many MAGA lost their minds when after Caitlin Clark was named Athlete of the Year by Time Magazine, she acknowledged how she and the WNBA owe so much to black women. And now SI picks Simone Biles as Sportsperson of the Year? Fasten your seatbelts…

The New Orleans terrorist’s ex-wife had a restraining order against him. But he still was able to get guns, because, Texas. Yes, most people were killed by his truck. But some people, including cops, were shot.
Seems like this should be a bigger part of story. Or are we just too inured to gun violence?

If the domestic terrorist attack in New Orleans should teach us anything, it’s that we really need an FBI director and other cabinet members focused on public service. Not focused on petty revenge on behalf of Dear Leader.

Newly elected Senator Adam Schiff has been given a position on the Senate Judiciary Committee. It’s a good thing. Even without the bonus of making MAGA heads explode.
Senator Mike Lee tweeted “who else wishes we could swear in Trump tomorrow?”
By the musical Annie standards, sure. Remember “Tomorrow, tomorrow, there’s always tomorrow ..it’s ALWAYS a day away.”
Ahead of today’s Speaker vote Mike Johnson- said with a straight face: “I don’t make deals with anyone. There’s no quid pro quo here. I don’t do anything in exchange for a vote.” Right, I only do everything Orange Jesus tells me to do.
If you dont remember all this drama when Nancy Pelosi was Speaker. It’s because there WASN’T all this drama when Nancy Pelosi was speaker. Madame Speaker could count votes. And she could govern.

DonOld can’t even get his petty angry insults right while he’s throwing a narcissistic and angry tantrum over the flags for Jimmy Carter in DC.
It’s half-staff. He said ‘half-mast’ – that refers to a ship.
His cognition is sinking faster than the Titanic.

Incoming Ohio Senator & multi-millionaire car dealer Bernie Moreno held event after his swearing in at DC’s Museum of the Bible. Leaving aside separation of church & state, the same Moreno supporting tax cuts for rich & cutting SNAP for the poor. Another who waves the bible without reading it.
Ohio, you could have kept Sherrod Brown. You got rid of a man of the people and replaced him with a man of the billionaires.

Ann Telnaes, a Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist for The Washington Post, quit, saying it was the first time she’s been censored because of who she satirized.
When Ann gets another job, taking the money saved from canceling my Wash Post subscription might go for a subscription to wherever she ends up.
