The Frankish Reich

Stay loyal to the Babylon Bee! Their Pope material never gets old.

That voice. Amazing. You could hear all of America in that voice. The high lonesome country, the Delta blues, the Cuban rhythm ... that's what we mean when we use the genre "Americana."

Like all successful professional comedians, Kimmel is at his best when he's responding to the heckler in the audience - in this case, Trump spouting off at him on social media.

Of course people die from complications of vaccines. We know that. We also know that more people die from the disease than from the vaccine. There's a word for people who can't keep these two thoughts in their head at the same time ... When I was a kid there was a stupid debate about seat belt laws. Opponents of those laws always used to say that sometimes seatbelts actually kill you; one person will be "thrown clear" in a head-on collision while the person in the next seat will be trapped inside a burning wreck because he had a seatbelt on. Yeah, once in a blue moon that did happen. So what? Stupid.

/ / / / / / / / Gotta love how our resident "Virologist" continues to defend the dumbest thing an American president has ever said, basically "they wipe down surfaces and the germs are all gone; why can't we wipe down our lungs too?" In other words: Yes, I said something stupid, but only to be funny. No one laughed. Not delivered with a smile or even a smirk, but rather with the affect of the moron who thinks he's the smartest man in the room. We all know what happened. Stop trying to rehabilitate the old fool.

All the inside consultants understand that if the midterms were to be held now, the Democrats would regain control over the House. I don't know why our political parties are so stupid. Trump got 49.81 percent of the popular vote a year ago against the weakest Democratic ticket ever. And then they acted like they had some kind of resounding mandate. And Biden won in 2020 by acting like a normal centrist and then proceeded to govern like an old school tax-and-spend wokist. It's not too late, but I don't see the Republicans changing tack until they take a whuppin next November.

Pretty sure JD Vance is planning to run on this

I win!

https://nypost.com/2025/12/08/sports/world-cup-pride-match-will-be-iran-vs-egypt/ I can think of no more appropriate matchup. They'll both have to try to lose on purpose lest they be awarded some kind of Rainbow Cup.

Losing narrative control typically precedes losing other kinds of control.

And he's white! Wow, JD Hill, I feel honored that I share his race!

I am deeply concerned.

And Jared doesn't even need to blow into a straw over a blob of watercolors to get that kind of money.

"Hey AI, make me a picture of a ripped gay Pope"

Translation: fewer immigrants makes our voters seem smarter. What a win for Mississippi.

Thank you, Mr. President, for making insurance national rather than statewide, as you promised us in a debate in 2015.

Your turn to be the Master of the Vibecession, Donny.

A big shout out to Big Blitz for not giving up the wee small hours Narrative Control without an epic fight. Your efforts have not gone unnoticed. Keep fighting the stupid fight!

Yeah, that's the weird thing. Good defense and a good run game and even Brett Rypien - who is a pretty bad backup after all - might steal you a couple wins. Having said that: it gives me a reason to watch the Colts. The older I get, the more I appreciate stories like this.

I think folks are misunderestimating the number of 34 year old grandparents out there.

Jailhouse rock

Retracted the story? Yeah, weeks after Kash Patel himself said they were barking up the wrong tree. And you waited until well after that before you changed the title of your libelous thread.

Because the Alt Media got this soooo right when it fingered a female soccer player from the Capitol Police. Yeah, take your win, Bongino Boy!

Is Wax Charlie gonna reemerge like JFK Jr? Where's his Vincent Fusca doppleganger?

FIFA must have cheated for Trump! Paraguay? The winner of Slovakia, Romania, Kosovo? (I do think Turkey was in there). https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/soccer/worldcup/2025/12/05/usmnt-world-cup-draw-group-d-fifa-2026/87623232007/
