Remember the dunking-kid meme from a couple of years ago? Little kid runs up to his tiny basketball hoop, dunks the ball, turns around to flex and holler. Meanwhile he doesn’t see that the whole backboard is wobbling and about to collapse on his head. When it does, he looks confused.
Congrats, New York Times! And Politico. And CNN. You’re all the Dunking Kids. You keep throwing down on the Trump administration. The backboard of truth keeps falling on your head. The rest of us laugh.
The New York Times just issued its most spectacular correction since my personal favorite, from Nov. 7, 2012: “An earlier version of this article misspelled the singer’s surname in a number of places. He is Bruce Springsteen, not Springstein.”
This Sunday’s correction cut the legs out from under its big Saturday scoop about a supposed new sex scandal about Brett Kavanaugh involving a woman who supposedly had Kavanaugh’s penis shoved into her hand when they were both at Yale. The Times’ gobsmacking correction noted that in the book from which its Saturday report was derived, “the female student declined to be interviewed and friends say that she does not recall the incident. That information has been added to the article.”
Backboard of truth meets skull.

My favorite is that Trump stole pancakes and put them in his pocket.. Still not sure if this was as a kid or as an adult in a business suit.
If you want to see people who have truly lost their minds just watch some of today’s Lewendowski hearing.
Not watching but your take seems to be at odds with other posts today.
most comments I’ve read here say that he’s kicking their asses ...
No, I had to look it up:
Same here. Never saw it before.
“Gif”...not ‘meme’.
anyone else think it is odd, that various Democrat presidential candidates, all on Sunday, as this story was just breaking, all called for the resignation/impeachment of Kavanaugh? While they don’t let facts get in their way, were they tipped off, that the Times had what they thought would be an explosive bombshell about Kavanaugh?
It seems as if this hand grenade of a story exploded in the Democrats and Times faces. But that’s another story.
Thanks to FR for refusing to place this in Breaking News.
We shouldn’t laugh at a child being hurt-—
although it was Beto O’Rourke. He’s not as smart today-—lost brain cells by smoking dope.
"Once the pin is pulled, Mister Hand Grenade is not your friend". Ask any soldier.
It's rather boring, I hope we're not paying these guys to waste time like this.
I just checked the DUmp and they are disgusted with Nadler.......pretty funny.
You would think that after pleading for years that they are not Fake News, they would be sure to get their stories right. But when it comes to attacking Trump, or his appointees, they just can’t help themselves.
How true. Once you pull the pin, an explosion will happen. These reporters and political operatives have been burned a time or two by their own explosions, haven’t they?
The thrill of victory...
The agony of da feet (or da head)!! Hehehe..
Nahhh. It's ok to laugh. It's what normal guys do. The saving grace of gettin to be an older guy is that ya know it's comin when the young bucks are doin the same schtoopit stuff we did years ago. So we can enjoy the show.. d;^)
