But seriously. Most of us do not give a fuck about either of them, and would prefer a Discover tab bereft of their names being mentioned. Keep that shit on the old app.

This is going to be important to note, as going forward we can expect the flailing regime to just indict people based on nothing because they believe the optics of the indictment are enough.
Hopefully we can chain this practice to the "Kavanaugh Stop" and forever tarnish his name.

Everyone's missing potentially the most interesting thing about this order, which is the judge's finding that Halligan may have returned an indictment that was never presented to the jury

A zygote is the result of a sperm joining an egg.
‘Zygote’ comes from the Greek word for ‘yoke.’
A ‘yoke’ is a wooden beam that JOINS two animals together.
The ‘yolk’ of an egg is from the Old English word for “yellow.”
‘Yoke’ and ‘yolk’ have no relation to each other.

Such a desperately sad headline. I feel like every time politicians think of something like this, they should go through the mental exercise of replacing the words "asylum seekers" with "Jews fleeing the Nazis" and see how that resonates with their conscience.

WaPo staff always get worked up about MBS and Khashoggi (rightly so) but ONLY (seem to) get worked up about MBS and Khashoggi.
To me, it borders on being a selective, performative outrage.
Guess they never heard the quote, "You'll never get another Post-Dispatch."

There will be far more young, career-oriented professionals in a serious relationship, than actual millionaires, that will leave NYC for good over the next month and a half. And it will have nothing to do with Zohran.

Henceforth, can we please refer to her only by either of two monikers; Megyn R Kelly, or M Kelly.
The fact that Megyn Kelly minimized raping 15 year olds and wasn't immediately canceled from every platform, including @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and YouTube, tells you EVERYTHING that is wrong with right wing media and this country in general.

Barro’s argument would suggest that the primary purpose of timed testing is to measure whether someone is good at taking timed tests. If it’s to measure knowledge, a time limit is fairly arbitrary

Meet Bubba Saulsbury, son of Odessa oil industry magnate Dick Saulsbury. Also friend to Kash Patel and JD Vance. This is who the Epstein felatio email is rumored to be referring to. Not Bill Clinton.

I've got to say I don't think the president has quite calculated the rally around the flag affect correctly of a war that no one wants and no one thinks is a good idea that will 100% cost American lives.

Although many people are saying it, I do not believe our current president sucked off former president Bill Clinton on camera. I have not seen sufficient evidence that our current president gave the former president a blowie in a way that was memorialized in a photo. That's not something I believe.

Weird. Cause the ESPN app that I use to manage my fantasy football team puts a tab that links to prop bets front and center on both the landing page and my team management page.
The NFL issued a memo Thursday about prop bets following indictments of current and former NBA and MLB personnel.
