Defense begins, “This case, ladies and gentlemen, is about a sandwich. A sandwich that according to Agent Lairmore somehow both exploded on his chest in a spray of mustard and onions but also landed intact on the ground still in its Subway wrapper.”

“Go vote; it makes you feel big and strong.” Legendary CBS newsman Bob Schieffer passing along his mother’s wisdom always comes to mind on Election Day.
Grateful to live in a place where voting is easy, secure, and convenient.

If Mamdani wins I will leave New York. I will go live in one of the other 5 houses I have, perhaps the one in South Florida, or the one in Paris, or Napa, or Cabo, but I will definitely leave New York. I will keep my apartment, though, because it's awesome and New York is great. But I will leave.

Thinking a lot recently about the outrage over Lizzo playing James Madison's flute
Photos: White House East Wing Demolished For Trump’s Ballroom
The privately funded ballroom will be approximately 90,000 square feet, much larger than the White House itself.

Trump: "They cheated on a commercial. Ronald Reagan loved tariffs and they said he didn't. And I guess it was AI or something. They cheated badly. Canada got caught cheating on a commercial. Can you believe it?"

How do you measure, measure a lie?
By my admittedly rough math, that would fund the U.S. military for about an hour and eighteen minutes
Trump: "By the way, a friend of mine called us the other day and he said 'I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democrat shutdown. I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have with the military.' Today, he sent us a check for $130 million. It's gonna go the military."

Looking forwards to the first World Series where the Dodgers organist is required to play “a minor” before every Blue Jays batter
It’s a Kendrick v Drake World Series. So I guess we know how this is going to go.

Lindsey Halligan has a broadcast journalism degree from Regis University in Denver. I am confident they covered how "off the record" works.
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.
I glanced down at the message.
“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.
So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.
