To be fair, since I can’t really listen to music with lyrics while working, I do listen to a lot of 50s and 60s jazz in my office…while wearing my cardigans and sucking on those sweet, sweet Werther’s.

It's tedious to say: "You should know SOMETHING about US history. Especially if you are prez."
But Jesus H. Christ: These are *exactly* the slurs used on:
-German immigs from B Franklin time onward.
-Irish immig through 1800s.
-Italians/ Greeks/ Poles/ Jews in 1900s
-Asians/Africans/LatAms passim

Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her.

An article that wasn't focused on elite colleges might be capable of considering that disability accommodations are about a student getting a good education for themselves rather than framing things in terms of a hunger games competition for who gets to be elite in society

R+6 or 7 is a great result for Dems here regardless but with 93% of 2022 turnout this is terrifying for Rs
they cannot rely on "oh this is just special election turnout differential"
almost everyone showed up and a lot of them voted the other way

14% swing from 2024 when all is said and done? Pretty good considering just how high-profile the race became in the last week
Turnout is currently *93%* of 2022, and it's also a 14% swing from 2022 despite similar turnout levels

Fuck these people.
Heard the same; this is what I mean by inches from the finish line; scheduled for the final citizenship oath ceremony and now suddenly that date is cancelled and people don't know what will happen next.
Our office has clients caught up in this. Hearing from colleagues nationwide about people having their naturalization oath ceremonies canceled. Some of the affected people aren't even subject to the travel ban due to other acquired citizenship, but they are still being caught up.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

We are not at war with Venezuela, yet. The boats are civilian craft. The U.S. criminal code does not maintain a death penalty for drug smuggling. Due process is required before conviction or sentence.
All of the 80 people killed thus far are wanton murders slain under illegal orders. All of them.

They should be doing much more of this “these are not serious people” messaging, not just around Hegseth.
Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.
