25 years ago today: the most consequential presidential election of my lifetime. 36 days later, it was effectively decided by the Supreme Court. Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, who voted with the majority, would later she regretted that the court accepted the case.

The FDA statement ends with a paragraph undermining its own warning.

They signal parents to avoid acetaminophen. Except sometimes. And then:

No “causal relationship… established” with ADHD or autism

AND

Alternatives to acetaminophen have “well-documented adverse impacts.”

WOW! Where is the media coverage of this?! For so long Biden's gaffes were a LEAD story 🙄. This is just...beyond! Lamestream media, this is why we are so FED UP with all of you! @msnbc.com @nytimes.com @cnn.com @cbsnews.com @pbsnews.org @npr.org @washingtonpost.com DO YOUR JOB!!
This exchange is so very telling.

Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this:

"I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

I try, I really do try, to be the bigger person and root for Duke when they are not playing UNC. But there are times I just, well, can’t. And last night was one of them. If you’re like me, you will greatly enjoy this write up about last night’s game!
It's 4:04 a.m. local time and I have to sleep but first here's an attempt at putting into words what it was like to witness Houston strangle the life out of Cooper Flagg's college career on Saturday night in San Antonio.

Duke's agony: The concerns many had at season's start were finally exposed in Final Four collapse to Houston
A special season earns a bittersweet description: 2024-25 Duke is now one of the best teams to not win a national title.

Agree with Jesse here and would tweak to say it is the primary problem, not just a problem.
One problem with the idea of reserving due process for law-abiding people is that due process is how we figure out which people are law-abiding.

💯 Chin up J-Wit
One mistake doesn't allow anyone to bash someone all over social media (especially by sending them uncalled for posts and messages).

How fast we forget how essential Jae'Lyn Withers has been for the UNC basketball program's recent resurgence.

Be better.
One mistake shouldn't take away from how important Jae'Lyn Withers has been for UNC
Withers made a mistake that was very costly, but he shouldn't solely be at fault for the loss to Duke.

The comments here are everything! What is it going to take for you to do something?
There was only one person acting presidential in the Oval Office today: Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

He stood up to bullies in a Kremlin-style shakedown.

What will it take to awaken the conscience of the country after such a shameful display?

“I am ashamed for my nation; even if Congress acts to support and aid Ukraine, it cannot restore the American honor lost today.”

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy.

I'm looking for the video of Marjorie Taylor Green's boyfriend Brian Glenn taking Elon Musk to task for wearing a ball cap and a t-shirt in the Oval Office.

Oddly, I can't find one. It's *almost* as if his outrage is just hypocritical theater . . .
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

NEW: The first front pages of Saturday’s newspapers in the UK.

“Trump stuns world with vile rant at Zelensky”

“A spectacle to horrify the world”

Journalists, please do not describe what happened at the White House today as a "spat", "heated exchange" or as Zelensky-Trump "going at each other". Zelensky was ambushed by Vance while very calmly explaining why Ukraine needs security guarantees and doesn't trust a ceasefire...
