Good luck to Bad Bunny, this is what he has to compete with in the Alternative Super Bowl halftime.

No. She's great, but at 78 needs to move into another role. Democrats must get younger or will continue to lose.

And yes, Mills is on the ball, but declines can happen rapidly at any time as we get older.

This is the way. So far, Washington Post, NYT, CNN, The Atlantic, The Guardian, Reuters, NPR, Associated Press, HuffPost and more. This is the way.

US news outlets refuse to sign new Pentagon rules to report only official information

I have a weird hobby of taking mostly dead plants off clearance racks and bringing them back. This orchid is one of my best.

A guess I have a Frankenstein complex.

As a MA citizen, stop sending federal tax dollars to DC.

We have many protections other states do not; this is meant in part to destroy them, and punish us for being solidly blue.

Nearly 9 months into the second Trump administration, Massachusetts has lost out on a total of $3.7 billion in federal funding thanks to Trump’s clawbacks and the domestic policy mega-bill. That supports a range of programs, from health care and housing to public safety and environmental protection.

Interesting situation in Maine: The establishment got Gov. Janet Mills to challenge Susan Collins. Mills is 78. Gordon Platner, 41, an oyster farmer and veteran, is drawing support from young and old, including Bernie Sanders, but not the establishment, in a microcosm of the party. #ProudBlue

I share your hope.

It is, however, Mr. Phil, not Dr. He gave up his license in 2006 as it was about to be taken from him. Mr. Phil's first suspension dates to the 80's, for misconduct, in Texas.

Mr. Phil is an absolute fraud. The gutter is too good for him.

Mikey has secrets, we all know he does. Whoever finds out those secrets has leverage.

Does Trump have something? Or can some enterprising person find these secrets out?

As for Opinions, all the liberal, DEI, and and most females have been fired or forced to resign, or fled.

That is not an Opinion.

Same WaPo that published an Opinion this week stating Trump deserved the Nobel? Or are there two newspapers of the same name?
