This was a good one. Sorry some people left. Honestly there are just so many newsletters and it gets overwhelming. You’re one of my current faves tho so I’m not going anywhere
A CNN pundit already made a big deal about the IVF/IUI “controversy,” saying that the campaign should “clean up this mess.” CNN created the mess. Let them clean it up. Trash.
I totally agree with your criticism of Trump for focusing on women's appearance, attractiveness and other physical attributes. I also agree with your calling out Walz for buying into the divisive practice of differentiating "us" from "them" based on geography, education, etc. But for similar reasons, I take issue with your occasional swipe at Trump's personal appearance, weight, "manboobs," and, to a lesser extent, his orangeness. These features are not what make him dangerous and despicable; there is plenty to criticize and even ridicule without gratuitous body- shaming. Just my opinion....
We really do need a sarcastic font. Besides, I don't think I have to agree with everything you say to subscribe to your reporting. I've always been impressed with your ability to chase down significant details of events as a good reporter should. Keep at it.
"Never got more cancellations than yesterday! I think some now-ex-Newsfuckers may have thought the headline indicated I actually consider Pres. Joe Biden’s departure from the race a coup. I do not. The headline — Coup Victim Gets Prime Speaking Slot — was sarcastic."
I totally loved your article of Uncle Joe being a coup victim. What was there not to love? The more you guys disect and unfuck Trump’s gibberish, the better.
In their defense, (a) I’m guessing and (b) my satire isn’t always clearly satire at first blush. Especially considering what some people say seriously!
Also people are so freaked out about finally getting rid of maga that they go lock step.
To your point that doing so actually hurts the democracy we’re trying to preserve. Old story but bears repeating, especially when people don’t want to hear it.
I read two of these lines out loud to Dok and Shy as we all sit here in our airbnb stanning the DNC in Chicago, and they laughed appropriately. They were very good lines.
Despite reports he’s still pissed at and hasn’t spoken with Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and other Democratic leaders who urged him to drop his campaign, Biden said he harbors no ill will and would gladly tell that to Pelosi in a dark alley sometime when she least expects it.
and now I have to go back to the main story again to find the other one, so we'll see how that ends up.
The report determines that Biden chatted on occasion with Hunter’s and James’s business partners and prospects…without mentioning the aforementioned business. The report also alleges that Hunter and James profited from business deals that never would have happened if their last name were, say, Kushner. Wait. Bad example.

Thank you, Lisa!

"the only bounce Trump has managed to achieve comes from his manboobs when he hops from his golf cart." 😂😂😂😂 Another great essay! Thanks!

Sorry to hear some folks unsubbed because satire. Funny, that’s precisely why I subscribe. Emphasis on the funny. Keep up the good work, JL.

It seems dumb, but perhaps provide sarcasm translations/indicators?
I appreciate your precision. I wish I had a job with money to give you.
If only I could write headlines in Snark Font Sans...

Wow, thank you! I can think of no better source of praise than Wonkette! You are too generous, but… but… what were the lines?!! 🤣
