WASHINGTON—In response to radio personality Leeann Tweeden’s allegations of being inappropriately groped by Al Franken during a 2006 U.S.O. tour, Democratic Party leaders issued calls Thursday for a convincing amount of condemnation for the Minnesota senator. “I urge my fellow Democrats to renounce Senator Franken’s unacceptable behavior in the absolute most plausible way,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, adding that he hadn’t ruled out taking steps to eventually look into the matter. “It’s imperative that we unequivocally go through the motions of rejecting any and all forms of sexual misconduct, and I’m confident that all Democrats will join me in denouncing the senator’s actions in the strongest believable terms.” Schumer also said that party leaders would remain steadfast in their lip service even if additional Democrats were accused of sexual assault.

Man Excited To Spend Weekend Back Home Catching Up With Old Video Games From High School

DUBLIN, CA—Describing the flood of childhood memories he had experienced upon arriving home Thursday afternoon, local 30-year-old Ryan Frost told reporters he was excited to spend the upcoming weekend catching up with some of his old video games from high school. “It’s going to be so great to see NBA Street Vol. 2, and of course Grand Theft Auto III—God, how long has it been, a decade?” said Frost, adding that he was thrilled to discover so many of his old games hadn’t gone anywhere and could still be found in or around his old PlayStation 2. “I can’t wait to sit down with Metal Gear Solid 2 and Need For Speed: Underground in my parents’ basement and just hang out all night. Gonna be just like old times.” At press time, Frost admitted that while it would be nice to spend a couple days revisiting his youth, it was unnerving to realize how comfortable his old games still seemed to be with sexism and racial stereotypes.

The Cognitive Dissonance Cluster Bomb

Earlier this week CNN.com listed 24 different theories that pundits have provided for why Trump won. And the list isn’t even complete. I’ve heard other explanations as well. What does it tell you when there are 24 different explanations for a thing?

It tells you that someone just dropped a cognitive dissonance cluster bomb on the public. Heads exploded. Cognitive dissonance set in. Weird theories came out. This is the cleanest and clearest example of cognitive dissonance you will ever see. Remember it.
