On my flight today, a chatty lady said, “I can’t go to New York with all that’s going on over there.” And I said, “What? Free child care?” And she stopped talking to me.

What WAS journalism? Friends, it was this, the greatest truth telling I’ve ever witnessed.
Don't give anything an Emmy until it's as good as this.

Over twenty years ago, I started studying dictatorships of the former USSR as an academic; after I got my PhD, I left academia and used that expertise to study my own country. Who says I sleep?

Maxine Waters was born in 1938.
She was not guaranteed the right to vote until she was 26.
She could not buy a house unimpeded until she was 30.
She can serve as long as she wants (and is functional) IMO.

Every Olympic broadcast should be assigned one (1) statistician and one (1) poet to give us different ways to understand the mind boggling displays of athleticism.

The Epstein class is forever attacking socialism because they are terrified that people will find out that government can be like this
Yesterday we kicked off NYC’s Free Tax Prep season. That means filing your taxes at zero cost, keeping every dollar of your refund, and not getting ripped off by for-profit companies.
Nearly half of all New Yorkers qualify. Get help—virtually or in person—at nyc.gov/TaxPrep
