I was born barely 30 years after Pearl Harbor. This is the first year when no survivor of the attack was present at the commemoration in Hawaii.
Today we remember the thousands of Americans who died in the attack on Pearl Harbor 84 years ago. Nearly half of those lost were aboard the USS Arizona, and I remember what a moving experience it was when Gabby and I visited the memorial. We’ll never forget their sacrifice.

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.

No way does Commissioner Gordon ever hold his gun sideways like this. He’s an old-school Chicago cop, not a 1990s rapper. Bad form, Batman and Robin no. 19.

So did everyone collectively forget about demanding the Epstein files released, or was just acknowledging a vote was all everyone wanted, what's going on with that?

Don’t say “asking questions” when you mean “taking shots at goal.” Or even “building offensive possession toward goal-attempting opportunities.”

The old catchphrase "run the government like a business" has never made sense, definitionally. Most government services are things no business would ever do, because not all human needs can be contorted into a profit-generating activity.

It should really be a bigger story that the government apparently has a kill list.
He says the men they murdered are on a list.
Let’s see the list.
Let’s hear their names.
Show us the evidence.
If you have any.

Does Haaland have a third touch yet? Not complaining, but it’s amazing what an effect he can have on opponents’ shape without actually touching the ball.

What is the problem with health care? It costs too much. The ACA made reforms to the system in place pre-2010 to make it cost less for many. But the only “solution” is to do things that make healthcare cost less. That’s it. That’s the whole game. Anything else is nonsense.
Good grief, Wisconsin.
There's no such thing as "transparency" in any kind of insurance, let alone one as complicated as health insurance.
That's why we elect lawmakers - to enact rules to protect and serve us as consumers.
DUH!

Whatever the perfect ¡THIS! gif is, imagine that gif here.
“Democrats need to abandon trans rights to win” is a mirror image of the message that WOULD win:
“Republicans ran on affordability, then passed the largest tax hike in history and made your healthcare costs triple. Now they’re obsessing over trans people, like they’ve solved all the real problems?”

Without an effective and 100% credible U.S. security guarantee within NATO, Germany would be foolish not to have strategic nuclear weapons. A weak U.S. security commitment to our allies is nuclear proliferation.
