John Kelly Is Telling Everyone Who Will Listen That Trump Wanted Generals Like Hitler Had |
I don't know how I feel about John Kelly's unburdening of his malleable conscience to The Atlantic and The New York Times. Part of me thinks, Look, pal, you were his chief of staff. I mean, he took the gig, and he must've realized within two hours that he was dealing with a swamp monster of the worst kind. It's a little late to warn us about it now that it has already eaten Osaka. Yet I also am grateful that he has given permission to the more timid members of my profession to use the F-word freely in relation to El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago. He is a fascist. He was a fascist. He will forever be a fascist. Per omnia saecula saeculorum. His fascism is a uniquely American kind, but it is fascism nonetheless. |

Get this: A writer for Tiger Beat on the Potomac thinks prosecutors should strike a deal with Trump to get him to accept the 2024 election results. Ms. Glover has spent a lot of time warning people to avoid contributing to the former president*'s campaign on the sensible grounds that nobody knows where the money is going. Good for her. Welcome to the Big Tent—which is, please God, merely a temporary shelter. Please leave your bag here on the table so we can make sure you're not smuggling in any really bad ideas. |

I can think of 787 million reasons Republicans ought to be very careful about badmouthing Dominion voting machines just because El Caudillo del Mar-a-Lago wants them to do so. Look, dipshits (thanks, Governor Coach Tim, for bringing down that barrier), as it has already demonstrated, Dominion has some really good lawyers, and it knows how to use them. Be advised. |

Come along with us now as we explore the distant frontiers of ratf*cking. Out there are many new and exotic species of rats that need f*cking, and there are brave humans out there willing to take on the job. Many of them live and work in Russia, and they must be exhausted by now, cramping up in both legs and in dire need of a smoke and a moist towelette. Inventing a falsehood about Tim Walz's past and then catapulting it into the American mainstream media is the kind of ratf*cking that gets you a spread in the Christmas issue of Cyber Dudes. |

Semi-seriously, I'm not sure why everybody is making a big deal about this McDonald's stunt. It was fake? Color me not astonished. It's an example of what a veteran pol once told me about campaigning: Sooner or later, no matter how smart you are, or how brilliant your strategy is, you have to pet the pig. This was petting the pig, not dissimilar to flipping pancakes in New Hampshire or wolfing down corn dogs at the Iowa State Fair. |

Periods are normal, but kids pointing them out in their sketches is something else. Australian woman Penny Rohleder shared a photo of her son's drawing on the Facebook page of blogger Constance Hall on Jul. 25, which well, says it all. SEE ALSO: James Corden tests out gymnastics class for his son and is instantly showed up by children "I don't know whether to be proud or embarrassed that my 5 year old son knows this," Rohleder wrote. "Julian drew a family portrait. I said 'What's that red bit on me?' And he replied, real casual, 'That's your period.'" Well, at least he knows. To give further context, Rohleder revealed she had pulmonary embolism in October 2016, and was put on blood thinning treatment which makes her periods "very, very bad," she explained to the Daily Mail .

British rider Chris Froome launched one of his blistering mountain attacks to win the Criterium du Dauphine race for the second time, clinching the eighth stage to take the yellow jersey. from Articles | Mail Online http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/othersports/article-3123660/Chris-Froome-sends-strong-message-rivals-storms-win-Criterium-du-Dauphine-second-time.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490
For centuries , humans have used fish oils, orally or topically, to treat a wide array of ailments, from aches and pains to rickets and gout. The popularity of this supplement has shifted over the years, as have its primary uses. But over the past couple of decades, the hype around fish oil has arguably reached an all-time high. According to National Institutes of Health statistics , in 2012, at least 18.8 million Americans used about $1.3 billion dollars worth of fish oil, making it the third most widely used supplement in the nation. (Sales reportedly flattened out at about that level around 2013.) Today, many use it because they believe it will broadly help their heart health , but others hold that fish oil can help with renal health, bone, and joint conditions, cognitive functions and mental wellness, and any number of other conditions. But is fish oil really as good for you as millions of Americans believe it is? Who should be taking it and when? We dove into the research and
