In Ukraine, when a funeral procession with a fallen soldier goes by, everyone stops whatever they are doing to stand silently. Traffic stops. Public transportation stops. Conversation stops.
In Lviv, people take this tradition a step further. Most people the procession passes take a knee.

Shout-out to anyone else who’s followed the “Racist Trump posts video of Obamas as monkeys/apes/primates/gorillas/…” and it reminds them of that puzzle-solving dude from a long-ago episode of This American Life who “inform[s] people against their will” about the differences between primates.

Did Vance pack his skiing jeans? I bet they would let him have a run or two on an Olympic slope. Would make a great photo-op!

I don’t think anyone in government should participate in a “prayer breakfast,” but I realize we lost that battle long before I was born.

Continuing to wish Obama would file for the 2028 election so we could get the ball rolling on litigation about whether the 22nd Amendment still exists. It will suck tremendously if this question gets decided on Trump’s timeline via the shadow docket.

The man is mentally ill.
Trump at National Prayer Breakfast: "They rigged the second election. I had to win it. I needed it for my own ego. I would've had a bad ego for the rest of my life. Now I really have a big ego. Beating these lunatics was incredible ... The first time they said I didn't win the popular vote. I did"

Wow, that sounds like one helluva act. What do you call yourselves?
Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."
