I'll make it simple... He is Thénardier. Nothing but a crooked, corrupt, skeevy Inn Keeper who can't satisfy his wife, has aspirations well outside his capabilities, and, like a cockroach always seems to thrive and survive off the suffering of others
This makes total sense.

Of course he can’t choose, he is both a convicted criminal AND a vindictive prick.

I love Brian Wilson so much. He changed music. He changed my life. He made so many beautiful, lonely things feel ok.

He also hated Mike Love with his whole chest and I love that too.

"It was probably not the reception the president was hoping for with his debut at the cultural center he took over and now chairs — half full, half booing, and with a strong contingent of drag queens."

First time I've ever been truly impressed with Newsom.
Newsom responds to Homan statement on possibly arresting him: He's a tough guy. Why doesn't he do that? He knows where to find me. Lay your hands off four year old girls that are trying to get educated. Come and arrest me. Let’s just get it over with tough guy. I don’t give a damn

My wife Andrea and I are praying for the victims of the horrific act of terror in Boulder.

The scourge of anti-semitism has metastasized across our country. We must do more — now — to stop this hatred and violence.

Tonight, on the eve of Shavuot, and always, we stand with our Jewish community.

Vladdy Is a Punk

Donald's dance with Putin is more Joey Fatone than Joey Ramone, though now he says Mad Vlad is on a Road to Ruin if he won't stop his blitzkrieg bop of Ukraine. But dream on if you think he's launching a rocket to Russia. I wanna be sedated for rest of this term.

Which news outlet is actually informing its readers about what happened?
Hard to believe they’re talking about the same event.

This is the REAL story.
Remember, last year Alex Thompson had a contract to write a book about Biden, & the publisher cancelled the contract. As I remember it around that time was when he went all in on GOP-friendly writing & tweeting.

BRUCE: "A majority of our elected representatives have failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rogue government. ... The America that I've sung to you about for 50 years is real, and regardless of its faults, is a great country with a great people."
Tonight, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band opened their Land of Hope & Dreams Tour. Bruce launched this run of shows with three statements about the situation in the United States, with comments preceding his songs Land of Hope and Dreams, House of a Thousand Guitars and My City of Ruins.

James L. Brooks, who turns 85 today, co-cocreated The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Rhoda, Lou Grant, Taxi, and The Simpsons. He wrote and directed Terms of Endearment and Broadcast News, and produced many others.

How is he not a household name? Why has he never received a Kennedy Center Honor?
Valerie Harper won her first Emmy as Rhoda Morgenstern #OTD in 1971.

She was nominated 8 years in a row — for both MARY TYLER MOORE and the spin-off RHODA — and won 4 times.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.
