Chicago’s delicious new holiday comes with sport peppers and giardiniera. Put your hands on the Internet, because you can now subscribe to AI Jesus. Stephen Colbert’s takes his final The Late Show bow. Macca > MAGA. Trump skips his own son’s wedding and in doing so denies us the most bizarre wedding speech of all time. After getting fired for quoting the late Charlie Kirk’s own words, the 1 Amendment strikes back. RIP to the beer that made Milwaukee famous. Trump launches the slushiest of slush funds to the tune of $1,776 billion of your tax dollars to give to criminals. Vandals have inundated Yosemite National Park and of course it’s Trump’s fault. Dick Parry, Pink Floyd’s legendary saxophone sideman, gets booked at the great sax gig in the sky. Gas prices are high, and Jim Jordan says, “That’s Life.” RIP Barney Frank, and so much more.
