With the crew being forced to resort to "collapsible contingency urinals", NASA Director Jared Isaacman could not help thinking that Chipotle was a poor choice. "We may have screwed the pooch on this one," sighed Isaacman. "The meal all being wrapped into one aluminum container, it just sucked us in. We probably should have known better. I mean, it is Chipotle. I may have been drunk when I made that call."...

@mtracey Benny Johnson says Bondi's fatal flaw was not being in tune enough with the online GOP "base," which is "obsessed with the Epstein Files," and demanding to know that "we're not paying taxes to pedophiles." Something tells me the next AG won't be able to satisfy this angst, either

Barack Obama loves lecturing us about ‘democracy’ and ‘voter suppression’ — except when it’s his own ugly library handing out grand-opening tickets. Then suddenly, citizenship matters. What is the attribute that stands out most to you when it comes to Barack? Narcissist? Sure. A generally pompous jackwagon? Definitely. Dork? Quite often. But somewhere on anybody's list, the word "hypocrite" is sure to show up. Whether it's top 5 or top 10 for his most obvious traits is the only question. So, imagine my surprise when I took a gander at the requirements for a contest to win two tickets to...
