Donald Trump, Unhinged, Is Actively Tweeting About ‘Civil War’

Trump Is Tweeting About 'Civil War' and Asking for His Political Opponent to Be Arrested

It was around 8:30 on Sunday night when the President of the United States echoed language about a "Civil War" if he is impeached and removed from office. Now, he'll say he wasn't calling for a civil war—he was just announcing his belief that there would be a "Civil War like fracture" if he faced consequences for violating his oath of office and betraying the national interest for his personal gain. Never mind that impeachment is a provision of the Constitution designed for removing a lawless or otherwise dangerous chief magistrate from power in a manner that comports with the law. The intent here was clear: to tie one outcome to the other, and place the idea of violent response in millions of minds across this country. The vast majority of people would never act on that, but the tweets were incitement. The message has already been received, loud and clear, by at least one right-wing paramilitary group. Read More

12 Stylish, Affordable Timex Watches You Can Buy Any Time

We're not sure exactly when it happened, but we've got a pretty good idea. It probably started with those first collabs with J.Crew. Or, wait. Maybe it was the team-up with Todd Snyder. Or, more recently, the release of a throwback style that managed to sell out not once but twice, and both times in less than 24 hours. Whatever the genesis of the phenomenon, Timex, once a reliable (if not always exciting) option for everyday watches...well, it's selling out. No longer can you simply rely on your choice of timepiece being available whenever. As every guy who wanted a Q Timex this time around can attest: You've got to move on those limited editions.

This Weezer Cover of Nirvana's 'Lithium' Brought Dave Grohl to Tears

The friendship between the Foo Fighters and Weezer goes way back. The two bands came up together in the mid-'90s—Foo Fighters formed in 1994 when Nirvana disbanded following Kurt Cobain's death, and Weezer hit it big that same year with the groundbreaking Blue Album. In 2005, the two bands went on their first co-headlining "Foozer" tour together (one of my first-ever concerts without parents). "We're friends and rivals. Friendly bitter rivals," Weezer's Rivers Cuomo said of their relationship with Foo Fighters in a 2017 interview before a few co-headlining Australia dates. "I don't think they think of us as rivals because they're 10 times bigger than us, but that's how I feel because we came up at the same time and they put their pedal to the metal, became gigantic."
