Why does the NYT do this? He wasn't ACCUSED of committing these crimes, he was CONVICTED of them - of being a drug lord.

Watching Halligan commit so many unforced errors in court, I wondered what her qualifications had been before becoming a Trump lawyer.
A quick look at her bio answered that question definitively.

So the NFL's new "virtual measurement" doesn't do anything to adjust a bad spot. It's the same as having the umpire in a MLB game make the call on a strike, but displaying a light instead of having him raise a fist.
Useless.

Reagan's approach to the world prominently featured two things:
1) Russian aggression bad, Western democratic alliance good
2) Free trade good, tariffs and other barriers to trade bad
Pretending it's the opposite is the sort of reality inversion only someone who rejects truth itself could buy.

Pretty good essay.
Breaking character: I was there dozens of times during my career, and he captures the quiet feel of the space. The West Wing is far more crowded and bustling than Aaron Sorkin showed us, but the East Wing was where one would feel the timelessness of tradition and history.
RIP, EW.

Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/

The thing about pro-Trump posts on X is that due to the garbled syntax and idiotic ideas, it's impossible to tell if they are parody, from Russian trolls who don't fully grasp the language, or legitimate attempts by morons.

The sad fact is: Even if there is no evidence of Comey authorizing the leak, Kash Patel will not hesitate to fabricate an fbi-dot-gov email that says just that. And since the FBI will not allow forensic evaluation of said email, it will probably be enough to convict.
