His death made me realize that I miss the times when he was the most hated person involved in US politics.

This title should only ever fall on Mitt Romney.
Another dead war criminal, you love to see it.
Shame he didn't die for the right reasons, though.

How is this legal? I see the governor is using a state code to do such but seems like basically offering a state's Nat Guard as a merc force.

Willis Johnson doesn’t live in the state but says he backs Gov. Kristi Noem, a potential presidential candidate who has called migration a “national security crisis.”

Not to mention South Dakota is a solid 930 miles from the border
And a civilian footing the bill for military activation/intervention?

Would love to see if Congress could poll higher than hamas.
My rabbit made some tunnels in my backyard. Theoretically it's happening there too!!
Mix a little bit of info with a whole bunch of assumptions = FACTS
Those damn leporidaephiles.
Those “never heard of them” percentages are cracking me up
Cops? Never heard of 'em.
more people have heard about Facebook than the police....sounds about right.

Everybody scream it with me: "TERM LIMITS"
only democrats can likely hold the presidency for 16 years and yet republicans install 3 SCOTUS positions
That list is mildly depressing.
MIldly!?!?!?
Forgot/missed this story when it came out quite astounding.

Sackler Family Empire Poised To Win Immunity From Opioid Lawsuits
Heard that the two liberal judges who most recently did strategic retirements were both Republican appointees. Both retired in obama's first term. RBG and Breyer are Dem (Clinton) appointees, both angrily resisted timing their retirement and "politicising the court".
Even though they deviated from their party ideology, it seems the republicans at least understood the politics of the court, while dems seem to have a head-in-sand attitude to it.
8% of americans have never heard of the EU? I refuse to believe that.
I bet at least 20% of my country folk have no idea New Hampshire is a state, so 8% is low.
That's probably low imo.
I expect a good percentage of them were thinking of Christopher Robin’s mate EOR when they said they knew what it was.
It very frequently is not so much “never heard of it” as it is “I’ve forgotten it is a thing that I was taught about”.

is there *anything* that cannot readily be turned into culture war?
Actually that is easily believable.
That number is probably equal or quite close to the number of Americans who think that Europe is a country.
I dont know how two giga cnuts like Cheney and Rumsfeld managed to be coexist in close spaces . Pure luck spacetime didn't tie itself into a knot.
Or maybe it did.
Or maybe it did.
They take too long to die. It's almost as if hate is keeping them alive.

My “favorite” part of that is Santorum saying “they want to do will of the people, feck that”
Hard to believe he was on the CNN payroll for so long.
Forever my favorite Santorum fact:
Urban Dictionary: Santorum
santorum
1) The frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex.
2) Anything resembling this.
1) We like doing it in the bathtub so we can just wash away the santorum afterward.
2)A bartender came up with a drink called the Santorumshot, brown and frothy in appearance and deeeeelish.
