I can't emphasize enough how ugly and pervasive and persistent the "Mamdani hates Jews" campaign was. I'm happy that so many Jews stood strong against that vileness. Maybe people will start to understand that we've had it with being treated as a paranoid, easily manipulated single-issue bloc.

There's a spectator in Madison Square Garden sitting next to the announcer's table wearing a black t-shirt that I think says "Time Square Sucks". It's hard to tell whether he's rooting for the Knicks or the Pacers because all native New Yorkers know that Times Square does indeed suck.

If not for Chris emailing me yesterday I would have forgotten that I donated one of my kidneys to him 13 years ago.
There is nothing profound behind my decision to donate. Chris needed something that I had two of when I only need one. I'm glad that Chris is still around to remind me that I did.

As you read this article, keep in mind that Don's Department of Justice will not allocate time and resources to investigating police officers accused of crimes. In the eyes of the federal regime, a badge is a license to do whatever you want until at least 2028.
NEW: We identified at least 14 officers in the Chicago Police Department who, according to disciplinary records, have faced multiple accusations of sexual assault or misconduct in the past 10 years.

I don't put ketchup on anything or use it as an ingredient. However, my wife and daughter love ketchup, so we keep an open bottle in the fridge, and we probably have enough loose ketchup packets to fill a bottle.
