Fox News Calls Out Beto’s Weakness: He’s a Book Reader!

Fox & Friends Identified Beto O'Rourke's Biggest Weakness: He's a Book Reader!

One thing you can expect from the good folks at Fox News this coming election cycle is that they will show open disdain for "knowing things." It was on display this Thursday morning as Fox & Friends processed Beto O'Rourke's announcement that he's running for president. Brian Kilmeade, our tour guide through Betoland, pointed with a certain disdain to Beto's book collection, which, in simply reading these books, differentiates him from our current president. The part of all this that really tickles is that O'Rourke's problem isn't that he's some haughty intellectual snob. Read More

'DivorceCore' Dominated Radio and MTV in the 1980s. It's Now Poised for a Renaissance.

In the 1980s, with a celebrity in The White House and an American public nervous about Russia, the youth-obsessed genre of rock 'n' roll coughed up a product the world had quite simply never consumed: the middle-aged rock star. Rock 'n' roll's first graduating class was beginning to address The Big Issues. The hunger to succeed had been satisfied, and the hunger to be heard, man began to rumble. In continuing to make records into middle age, rockers like Don Henley, Paul Simon, and Bonnie Raitt were inventing a whole new genre of music: "DivorceCore." Esquire's Dave Holmes takes us inside this long-lost musical genre, explains why it's poised for a comeback in 2019, curates the ultimate—and perhaps only—DivorceCore playlist. Read More

I Want Beto O'Rourke to Make Me a Mixtape, Not Run for President in 2020

Dan Sinker founded Punk Planet, a DIY magazine that Beto O'Rourke, a DIY punk musician in the '90s and early 2000s, likely read. In Esquire, Sinker writes that he'd really like Beto to make him a mixtape, and then to run for Senate in Texas again, or maybe governor, or maye become head of the DNC.

"Maybe you think I am joking because it seems like at least the media wants a young white dude to run for president," Sinker says, "but I am not joking: I really do want that tape." Read More

The Bomb Cyclone Out West Wasn't Supposed to Happen—and It Happened Fast

It moved on through the Dakotas and it spent Thursday pummeling the upper midwest. Rain precedes the blizzard in this system so, between rainfall and melting snow, there was flooding all over the Dakotas and worse was expected in the lakes and rivers of Minnesota and Wisconsin. But this storm covered parts of 25 states. In Dallas, gusts of over 100 mph brought down trees and there were tornado warnings all over the northern part of the state. This, from the same weather system that was preparing to bury Duluth. Those Chinese climate hoaxsters are working overtime these days. Read More
