So Don Winslow, crime writer. I like a good page turner. What's the best place to start? I know there's a movie coming out about a novella in the Broken collection, but is that his best? What else do y'all like?
Any readers out there?

My "favorite" of the racist reactions: "I could barely get through half of the second song. It sounded like booga booga music. It was like a current version of a Spanish KC and the Sunshine Band. I agree, he has no talent."

I'm not a Newsom fan and his chummy agreement with guys like Shapiro and Kirk is just gross. That said, I know he'd have zero hesitation about exploiting the "unitary executive" that the GOP created and their "we didn't mean like that" could be a lot of fun.

Lost in the discussion of how Charlie Kirk "did politics the right way" are the lives of the two victims assassinated at Florida State University by a member of Kirk's organization, Turning Point USA, in April 2025.
Weird how when a Trump supporter, white supremacist, and reportedly, a former member of Turning Point USA shot up Florida State University (FSU) several months ago and killed two people - there wasn't the same national conversation about "political violence." www.mediaite.com/news/mass-sh...
