Zohran is a generational talent, but I really worry the democrats are gonna take away all the wrong lessons from this, because none of the rest of them can do this.

TRUMP [after spending 5 minutes with Zohran]: surplus value, it’s a very wonderful thing, very wonderful, and they’re stealing it. Can you believe that?

DC absolutely needs statehood so that the people who live there aren't ruled by goons they never elected. A genuine ongoing scandal and absolute betrayal of the principles of the country.
These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws.

Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired.

They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

and the buses, he tells me, the buses are so slow. too many cars. fares take too long. stop and go, stop, stop, stop, go, stop, go, stop, go, go, stop—no more. fast buses. fast and free
Trump in a room with a very charismatic person results in like half a day of Trump agreeing with everything that person said, so this has the potential to be very, very funny.

The fact that Taylor Ward doesn't look like a luxury for the Orioles is a pretty big indictment of how the past 2-3 years have worked out for them. They hugged all those corner-only prospects only to end up needing to trade for a 32-year-old Taylor Ward? Big yikes!

Yeah, everyone knows Saudi Arabia and MBS in particular are deeply committed to “Western values.”
Rep. Moolenaar on Trump selling F-35s to Saudi Arabia: "I believe the president is bringing different countries into the coalition that would be more aligned with Western values and with respect for national security. I trust his team."

Good read here
Now that Rogue has apparently shed its mortal coil, I have to do another brewery obit. (Ugh!) Given Rogue’s reputation today, one may imagine its legacy is merely surviving. In fact, it was a hugely influential brewer, and at one time its beers were considered groundbreaking.
Rogue Ales, 1988-2025 — Beervana
With the apparent permanent closure of Rogue Ales, it’s time to consider the legacy of this early craft brewery. It may surprise many drinkers who today think of Rogue as tame and boring to learn that...

I really enjoyed this @dcbeer.com post from @jacobsberg.bsky.social. Insightful and informative about how things are going in #dcbrews land. Tough out here but there is a way through I hope.
Good morning, everyone. The news doesn't suck today, so let's keep it going with City-State's transformation into a taproom with a beer brand. Beats closing!

i don't think it's a coicidence that a lot of the worst actors in this administration are under 40. more experienced/capable people would simply not be putting themselves in these kinds of damning and reputation destroying situations.

If you are the kind of person who cares about journalism, you should be alarmed at how quickly the elite world of journalism is lining up to rehabilitate this person who flagrantly failed the most based standards of ethics in the field.
Vanity Fair's West Coast Editor Olivia Nuzzi was a star political correspondent until scandal led her into exile—and to a California up in flames.

In an excerpt from her book, ‘American Canto,’ she takes stock of scorched earth.

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

i mean c’mon. the president’s best friend was the most notorious pedo in the country’s history who ran a massive child trafficking ring. every bit of circumstantial evidence we have says that trump was a participant. if this were a criminal trial we’d have enough evidence to compel a plea deal.
