True NYT spin:
"...Schumer Risks Finding Himself Left Behind"
🙋♀️ Raise your hand if you know Schumer is *way* behind... Holding back progress, tapping the wrong candidates, not fighting and not holding the line on resisting the 'president. '
It is time for bold leadership.

It is 2025. Why are RoundUp and other known poisons dominating the shelves at Home Depot? I had to search for organic products.
Don't buy it and maybe they won't stock it?

I have seen way too many McDonald's in Italy, but it occurred to me that an EU tariff on someone's "favorite restaurant" may be a jolly good idea.
