It was a big weekend!

There was a big football game (and a cultural history of the league), which Joe Biden somehow won, plus just a hint at the collapse of the post-war global order! And I mean, like, the whole thing.

That was a lot for Greg Dworkin to round up, but it wasn’t all about the weekend. There’s a very special special election coming too, for the seat briefly occupied by George Santos. Or whatever his name was.

There was, of course, more fallout over the Hur report. Or whatever you’d call that thing.

Speaking of Hur, people are grumbling again about how, somehow, only Republicans are allowed to be special counsels. Bending over backwards to be “fair” just doesn’t seem… fair anymore. I mean, what’s an insurrectionist gotta do to get arrested in this town?

TFG’s fascist xenophobia continues unabated, further driving his party’s meltdown. Did you know the Gop hasn’t been in this much disarray since the 80s? Things are so crazy, the Congress might even pass a bill!
