Never doubt how many people believe a man's right to a career is far more important than a woman's right to safety.
This thing where the entire political establishment decided it didn't matter that Cuomo is a sex pest is pretty abominable

In 99% of cases the death of a person is a tragedy. People are generally more complicated than we give them credit and most people are a mix of good and bad.
But not Dick Cheney. Rest in piss you evil bag of shit.

Kahless tells us that to face a new day, not knowing what challenges it may bring, is a fresh act of courage each morning. Arise tomorrow and raise your voice, tell the world a warrior has awoken, a true warrior who will bring this day honor and glory!

That was a great series. I'm not sure I've seen a series this good in a long time. Both teams were and are great. Was hoping Toronto could hold on but the Dodgers were just too much. Heartbreaking for them. See y'all again in 100 days when pitchers and catchers report.⚾

This feels like a mistake to have Yamamoto still in there.

I haven't been this stressed about a baseball game since the Twins/Tigers game 163. This is just a great game.

Longtime readers know the true villain of American politics is the Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929. Repealing this and restructuring Supreme Court are the bare minimums of fixing government in this country. Bare minimums.

It's not just geography... it's the fixed number in the House. Since 1920 every new census has disadvantaged more populous states.
It's a lack of fair apportionment. Which not only means more populous states have fewer representatives, they have fewer electoral votes.

America's political geography means Democrats are naturally disadvantaged under single-member districts even if you draw fair, neutral maps. They are less efficiently distributed, perversely punished because they have *more* voters in both safe red seats and deep blue ones.

To the extent that we can sum up the Trump regime right now, this is what seems most defensible to me:
1) It's an authoritarian takeover of the state apparatus
2) Events are moving faster than they anticipated, and they can't control the story
3) They're just not competent enough to pull this off

Today's theft from the Louvre (

A lone voice speaking truth may be drowned by a cacophonous enemy. But when true warriors stand together, add their voices to a chorus, the words gain the power to sweep away any perfidious clamor. Today of all days, add your voice, warriors, and sing for what's right.

Folks, Israel is not letting aid in which means Palestinians continue to have to buy food on the black market from Israel sponsored gangs. If you can donate a little money to the fundraisers we're posting, you can keep someone alive. Palestinians wouldn't beg if they didn't have to.
UNRWA has enough food outside #Gaza to supply people there for 3 months, amid desperate need. Our teams stand ready to deliver it.
But despite the #ceasefire, the Israeli Authorities’ block on UNRWA bringing any supplies into Gaza still continues.
Let us get aid into Gaza at the full scale needed.

I wouldn't make it to the general election since I know the truth that if you want a good bagel, you go to Montreal.
Tell me your bagel order and I will tell you *based on NYC cultural expectations* if you have won or lost your election for political office in NYC.
One of my favorite things about NYC is whenever anyone runs for office here they are required to disclose their bagel order.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I think she's a disgraceful person. A loser. It's amazing the way people vote, I know it's people from her area of the world, they got here and they vote her in — it's hard to believe. But I think she's a disgusting person."

Klobuchar was in the senate after Sandy Hook. Did she really do *everything* in her power to get an assault rifle ban passed?
Yesterday tells me no. Uvalde tells me no. Parkland tells me no.
Blood on her hands. From Gaza to South Minneapolis.
