I really want to know what this is about, but I refuse to click on teaser headlines. Tell me in the headline. that's journalism 101, or at least it was when I was in school.

It's that time of the year, when the players wear white and the court is green grass. The gray beards of Cilic and Dimotrov are into 3rd round at #wimbledon and I'm glad to see it. I was on the grounds of #sw19 a month ago, getting the tour and experiencing the history.

Foolish, selfish, cruel. This man thought waste fraud& abuse was the other guy. Turns out it was him. Why do people think anyone in govt wants W,F&A? The idea Tr U m P could come in an fix things without identifying what's broken first, is a notion lacking awareness.

if you're wondering when, now is the time to send some money to the @aclu.org . it's work in forcing the POTUS to prove human beings are not furniture, that you can't remove them because you don't like them.

The media lets us down when they don't respond with facts when the POTUS just tells lie after lie.

No it isn't. I couldn't get through the 1st season. only one of my friends has watched it. None of my adult children. This is navel gazing by people who think their interests are the culture's interests. Nonsense feature writing. Less than 10% of households have #Apple TV. #elites #culture

This cartoon, published in the Palm Beach Post by Danzinger, seems to be the reason the editor was fired. It seems to me to portray a Israeli prisoner being returned home after thousands of Palestinians have been killed.
