Among the details in Seth A. Richardson's excellent, heartbreaking new Racket piece on the death of Palmer's Bar: owner Sarah Dwyer wrote to Mayor Jacob Frey twice to ask for more enforcement of city code to help clean up the neighborhood. Neither letter even received a reply. #DontRankFrey

The fact that the Democratic Party is terrified of what the dynamic and popular Zohran Mamdani might do to the public perception of Democrats, yet oblivious to the awful damage Schumer and Jeffries are constantly doing to the same is all you need to know about how brain-dead the party is.

Hey all you assault weapon-owning, gun-loving dipshit Americans, wasn't your excuse all along that you might need them to fight the US government if it suddenly became authoritarian? Are you all just super busy right now or something?

Trump’s concern about antisemitism is about as selective as his concern for birds: it’s only there if there’s a university he wants to shake down or a windmill he wants to take down.
