There is a 7 foot tall guy behind Rishi Sunak who likely ran for office just to be able to hold a printed out L behind him during his concession speech.

BREAKING: Reform Party leader Nigel Farage wins seat in UK parliament

Turned on the Argentina-Ecuador Copa América match, but did not pay attention to which network. It was Fox and hearing English announcers, had a visceral reaction. Changed that right quick. Always watch fútbol on Univision or Telemundo. ¡En Español es mucho mejor!

Was out in the yard and the heavy explosions are starting up. Wonder if it’s going to be as bad as New Years Eve night was with gunfire. Staying away from windows tonight as usual.

Something’s going on. About a half dozen police cars just sped by lights/sirens on.

Did the LAPD blow up another neighborhood this week? Just wondering.

Just as the Founding Fathers intended. God Bless America!

Wow, real banana republic stuff. I'm glad our presidents can launder money and associate criminally without worrying about this kind of thing.

Labour’s campaign was extremely cautious, and given past defeats I understand why. But now the UK center-left has a huge majority in a system with many fewer choke points than in the U.S. Let’s hope they’re ready to govern like the dominant party they now are

Progressives slowly taking Wisconsin back. Fuck Scott Walker. [He was Bruce Rauner’s hero and wanted to turn Illinois into Wisconsin South. Thank god for Mike Madigan, unironically.]

Wow. Hope they don’t fuck it up!

JUST IN: Labour heading toward a landslide victory in the UK. This is their return to power, for the first time since 2010. National exit poll, released moments ago, shows them above 400 seats. The ruling conservatives projected at 131, which would be their lowest since WWII.
