Bezo has shown himself to be unworthy of owning The Washington Post. Someone with integrity and business sense needs to step in and buy it from him.

In a way - a very small way - I feel sorry for these guys. Two Latinos brainwashed into arresting others who yearn to be free.
If they *are* the ones who shot Pretti they deserve to go to jail for their crimes. But you have to ask yourself: what did America do to make them into monsters?

Not only did the Conservatives lose the general election, but Mr. Poilievre lost the district he had represented for more than two decades.”
I guess calling the “district” Poilievre represented a “riding” would be too confusing for @nytimes.com readers. 🙄

Unlike the parliamentary system, the U.S. has no “opposition party”. There is only a party that controls the House, the Senate and the presidency.
The other party is a powerless party that is only able to try to impede the party in power, generally with little success.

This is North America. We are the frogs in the boiling pot. We don’t realize how quickly our society is deteriorating because the deterioration, like the temperature of the water, has been gradual.
