Vance on Talarico: "A guy that age who was so obsessed and focused on transgender children, I don't know about you, but I never want to see that guy's web browser history. It's not a good place."
I remember learning in kindergarten that HOMES was a useful acronym for remembering the five great lakes.
A bit on the nose to change it to SHAME, isn't it?

To any Hungarians annoyed that Americans are placing the credit for your momentous victory on the shoulders of our stunningly repellent little weasel of a VP: you are correct to feel that way, I'm sorry, we just want to seize any available oppurtunity to humiliate him specificially
Gov. Pritzker: "I know the Republicans say Democrats aren't patriotic. We're more patriotic. We believe in this country more than they do. They're tearing down the laws. They're operating in an unconstitutional fashion. They elected somebody who is ruining our democracy."
