Fetterman’s office won’t take VMs outside business hours. He’s such a chickenshit. Even though I’m in PA, I called Schumer’s office to demand that he get his caucus to hold the line.

The 5-game 1905 World Series between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Athletics is the only one in which every game was a shutout. Name the 3 winning pitchers. BTW, I followed both of you when you were in Philly and admired your work on the sports desk, diamond and broadcast booth.)

I’m a Philly guy rooting for Toronto in this Series, but have no issue with the Dodgers winning. They got timely hits and made the plays when they needed to. Plus they rep a beleaguered city whose inhabitants deserve a good time.

Dr. Levine is a dedicated public-health professional. I’m outraged that she’s treated so disrespectfully.

But tell me again, Mr. Miller, how you’re so much tougher and “hard core” than the gang bangers you’re supposedly pursuing.

Jonathan Swift drew a useful distinction in Latin - a human is not “animal rationale” (an inherently rational animal) but “animal rationis capax” (an animal capable of reason).

Two years ago media portrayed Emmer as a moderate. Then Trump derailed his bid to be Speaker. Given Emmer’s current immoderation, I’m guessing that Trump et al have something serious on him and are using it to enforce complicity.

Tellingly, local Philly CBS affiliate said “tens of thousands” (actually millions, of course) marched nationwide. I guess the Bari Weiss effect has trickled down quickly.
