REP. OMAR after being attacked with liquid: “We will continue! These fucking assholes are not gonna get away with this! Here is the reality people like this ugly man don’t understand — we are Minnesota Strong. We’ll stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us.”

If the NFL thinks so much of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood that they featured one of his songs, "You Are Special", in their commercial, perhaps the NFL should have spoken up when Trump defunded the Corporation for Public Broadcasting in an attempt to destroy PBS and NPR.

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

One of these characters is evil, devious, greedy, mentally foggy, and physically pathetic. He tends to be extremely cruel and does not even seem to realize or even care about his selfish actions. The other character is Mr. Burns.

Pay off their student loans while simultaneously regularly putting money into a savings account.
It's 2026.

Things many American school kids probably don't know how to do:

* Dial a rotary telephone

* Tell time from an analog clock

* Read or write cursive

* Decipher Roman numerals

* Navigate with a paper map or use a compass

* Balance a checkbook

(Please add more below)

This happened with Elon’s canvassers when I was in Wisconsin (with @workingfamilies.org!) when he paid all those millions to oust the Supreme Court candidate and it was such a huge blowout, hope this is the same! You go @nywfp.bsky.social 🙏 good wishes coming from New Orleans!!

I can't emphasize enough how ugly and pervasive and persistent the "Mamdani hates Jews" campaign was. I'm happy that so many Jews stood strong against that vileness. Maybe people will start to understand that we've had it with being treated as a paranoid, easily manipulated single-issue bloc.

The New York Times tomorrow morning: "Is Eric Adams' indictment really that bad? Rethinking the complicated but charming mayor."

There's a spectator in Madison Square Garden sitting next to the announcer's table wearing a black t-shirt that I think says "Time Square Sucks". It's hard to tell whether he's rooting for the Knicks or the Pacers because all native New Yorkers know that Times Square does indeed suck.

If not for Chris emailing me yesterday I would have forgotten that I donated one of my kidneys to him 13 years ago.

There is nothing profound behind my decision to donate. Chris needed something that I had two of when I only need one. I'm glad that Chris is still around to remind me that I did.

As you read this article, keep in mind that Don's Department of Justice will not allocate time and resources to investigating police officers accused of crimes. In the eyes of the federal regime, a badge is a license to do whatever you want until at least 2028.

If the Cleveland Guardians and the Washington Commanders can evolve past their racist names and logos, why can’t Lululemon?

Proposal: If the conclave fails to elect a new pope after three ballots, the cardinals should hoop it up. First to 11 chooses the new pope. Ball don't lie.

Would you hire someone if you knew their parents were going to call you to critique your supervision?

Now, on top of Daddy Deion helicopter coaching his son, the front office that drafts Shedeur can look forward to Don tweeting at the team in between executive ordering due process out of existence.
