Anybody have the over under on how many times Krystal will say “blah blah blah“ or “etc. etc.“? This could also make a good drinking game.

These segments were scheduled a few days ago but were postponed due to Trump's actions in Venezuela. Enjoy some late extra content starting with Emily going deep on Ryan's socialist past, career in journalism, and the infamous time he got in a fist fight with Jesse Watters.

Thought I would share these 'valentine's day' cards that the white house posted on their site. Even my very republican parents were disgusted.
Did anyone else get ads during the YouTube video? Did YouTube implement their broke boy money grab scheme again
If there’s a permanent bureaucratic layer that actually keeps the country running, a one-party system wouldn’t be stable. Half the population would always feel locked out, and that kind of pressure builds instability. So instead, you get two dominant parties that split along a pretty basic human divide. One side leans toward openness, redistribution, collective responsibility. The other leans toward order, hierarchy, and distrust of rapid change.
Both sides fight hard over culture and identity because that keeps their base emotionally invested. That’s the visible battle. But the deeper economic and administrative structure keeps moving regardless of which party is in office. The policies that threaten entrenched power rarely survive. The ones that protect it often do.
So the power alternates, the rhetoric changes, people feel like everything is shifting, but the underlying machinery doesn’t move nearly as much as it looks like it does.
