In case you missed it, the England fans at the world cup are enthusiastically chanting:

"He's fat, with piles
He's in the Epstein files
Trump the Cuunt
Trump the Cuuuuuntt!!!"

I want to know how the pearl-clutching republican senators are going to handle it if they win.

Senator Chris Van Hollen (@vanhollen.senate.gov)

Students with disabilities are students first. This illegal change will worsen outcomes & delay civil rights protections.   The Dept of Education had decades of expertise helping kids learn according to their unique needs.   Walking away from IDEA in its 50th year is plain cruel. https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2026/06/16/education-dept-plans-move-special-ed-civil-rights-out-agency/?utm_source=alert&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=wp_news_alert_revere&location=alert

Scrubbin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought algae and the algae won
I fought algae and the algae won
I needed bleach 'cause I had none
I fought algae and the algae won
I fought algae and the algae won

I dumped in chemicals and it smells so bad
Guess my race is run
It's the best pond that I ever had
I fought algae and the algae won
I fought algae and the algae won
