Yes, you’ve identified the real crux of the issue. All Americans have great trust and respect for the IRS, and Mr Littlejohn’s actions might erode some fraction of some fraction of that undeserved trust and respect. Oh, the humanity.
Old, large, cranky. Gotta go to the bathroom.
Also, that picture isn’t me.

We disagree? I see no disagreement.
Repeating “but were they a drag queen” in our little echo chambers is surely cathartic
Full stop. It’s cathartic, does no harm, adds a momentary smile to my otherwise dreary, humdrum, frustrating life. Bring on the drag queens, please!
We must always always always vote for the turd in every election, for if the turd doesn’t win we’ll be stuck with turd plus vomit.
This is piffle.
Without evidence to the contrary, I generally assume people are competent in their jobs. As even the article mentions, there’s a chain of command and work at the Defense Department went along just fine without Lloyd Austin for a few days.
Another “negotiated settlement” and a payment that sounds impressive — ooh, $47,000,000 — but won’t amount to a day’s business for a giant hospital network. Why no prosecutions? Why no prison time?
Praise for a super-villain.

I will try to hold back too many profanities, but it’s seriously FUCKED UP that anyone but this woman and her doctor know that she’s pregnant, with a doomed fetus, and needs an abortion, and it’s FUCKED UP that anyone gets to overrule her decision, and it’s FUCKED UP that she has to flee the state during an obviously traumatic time, and it’s FUCKED UP that the FUCKERS will vilify her now, hell maybe even prosecute her, and it’s FUCKED UP that making a difficult time much more difficult is “good politics” in the state of Texas, which, by the way, is an utterly FUCKED UP place.
Oooh, we’re winning friends and influencing people…
Heck of a sweetheart deal, for treason.
Like Trump, Santos never told the truth about anything, but remember that a majority of Republicans in the House, 112 of 222, voted not to expel him.
Just the headline is reason enough not to click.
Israel is fighting for its life.
What hogwash. As if Hamas presents an actual threat to Israel’s existence?
But we can’t hear the climate alarm, over all the cacophony of all the other climate alarms we’re busily ignoring.
Exactly.
Whatever the fines and judgments, even if he’s found guilty of crimes in other trials, Donald Trump cannot be imprisoned. He will die of old age or a McDonald’s-fueled heart attack, but he’ll die rich, in a comfortable mansion, having never known punishment.
It sucks, sure, but pretending otherwise is just that — pretending.
The Beeb is a big operation, with genuine humans reporting and editing 24/7/365. Things will always slip by. I appreciated the policy, is all.
BBC being the only outlet to avoid using the loaded term ‘terrorist’ was solid journalism, so of course that had to go.
That said, Hamas certainly is a terrorist group by any sane definition, and so’s the Israel Defense Forces.
Also (sorry, but old guy here) the nozzle sometimes unexpectedly sprays sideways. It’s no worry if you’re sitting down, but if you’re standing up you might’ve just wet your pants… or the pants of the unlucky schmoe at the neighboring urinal.
