Here are two photos of Donald Trump, taken on consecutive days: yesterday, Jan. 5, and today, Jan. 6.

Jeb Bush—a man whose campaign has, one imagines, not followed the trajectory he hoped it might—has a new talking point: his daughter, Noelle, and her struggles with drug addiction, a subject he once explicitly requested the media not report on.

The Rose Bowl, a college football game traditionally played on New Year’s Day, is a celebration of American regionalism. Historically, it pitted the champion of the Midwest’s Big Ten Conference against the champion of the Pacific Coast Conference (or its successors). The arrangement has been modified and undermined by conference realignment and college championship schemes, but most years, the premise still holds: two teams representing separate places with separate histories and cultures, West Coast versus heartland.

The first paid television spot from the Trump campaign does an excellent job of summarizing his platform of racism at the federal level: non-white people are bad and should be kept out of America at all costs.

Donald Trump fans are a special breed of American voter. To hear them tell it, they’re a disenfranchised silent majority who simply want to see America restored to its past glory. To hear everyone else tell it, they’re a violent mob of tempestuous racists. Either way, they really love sending me email.

While Hillary Clinton’s claim that Trump was “ISIS’s best recruiter” may not have been totally verifiable a few weeks ago, she didn’t have to wait long for that to change. A newly released video from Al Shabab—Somalia’s resident Al Qaeda affiliate—uses footage of Trump spouting deeply Islamophobic rhetoric as a direct recruitment tool for its terrorist organization.

The campaign manager and communications director for the Ben Carson campaign have resigned, after Carson sort of promised to fire them, and then didn’t, earlier this month.

At a rally in South Carolina today, Donald Trump gave a touching eulogy to the true victim of climate change—his own, unruly hair follicles.

Though we wish it were not so, America has a two-party political system. Both parties share many of the same bad qualities. But one is unique, in that it is a machine made of fraud.

George Pataki surprised everyone tonight with the news that he was running for president, in a video announcing that he was suspending his campaign for president. Go home, man.

Martin O’Malley: probably not the next American president. Politico reports that one (1.00) human individual person attended his campaign “event” in Iowa yesterday, and that person isn’t even onboard.

Donald Trump has apparently changed his mind about economic inequality, lamenting on Twitter Monday that wages are to low. This weekend, Bernie Sanders suggested that he might be able to lift the spell cast over the white, alienated masses who have flocked to Trump’s supremacist banner.

You’ve seen Donald Trump supporters speak, in so many ways. To pick a single example at random, when one called for a public lynching of a black protestor. Or remember this woman who would throw a spear into your chest if Donald Trump ordered it? But there is a segment of America who has not yet been given a national platform to advertise their pathetic delusion: Ted Cruz supporters.

On CBS’ “Face the Nation” Sunday, extremely optimistic Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders criticized Donald Trump for corrupting voters’ fears and anxieties into xenophobic and racial hatred. Sanders also said that he can win some of those people over.

With a new year comes new beginnings, and so it will be for theoretical presidential candidate Jeb Bush, who is now just a mere Jeb, and no longer, ahem, Jeb!

Jeb Bush has responded to our claim that he wore the same sweater four days in a row, saying “It wasn’t four consecutive days I was in Miami on Sunday.Notice on Tuesday evening I wore another Sweater. And also notice that Isis has not been defeated.”

Jeb Bush has been making the rounds in New Hampshire this week, which is perfectly normal behavior for a man running for president. But the many tweets coming from Jeb’s camp this week have included more than just photos of Jeb’s stilted handshakes—they’ve also raised questions. Specifically: Why has Jeb Bush been wearing the exact same sweater for the past four days?
