Heritage, for its part, was so upset about this reporting that it threatened to sue Vox to try and stop publication. But we are confident in our source and our reporting.

Here's a gift link to the piece that Heritage tried to kill www.vox.com/on-the-right...
The toxic culture behind the right’s civil war
A Heritage insider alleging “openly misogynistic and racist” conduct shines a light on the right’s inner workings.

The Vladdy-David Ortiz interaction on Fox in front of Jeter & A-Rod is the stuff of legends.

Hoping that buying the Leafs Lululemon apparel that dropped this morning will help me to feel better about the Blue Jays

Hey, I wrote this!
After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel
Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

I hope that Marner goes somewhere that makes him happy. Athletes are people too. They get held to outrageous standards of loyalty and selflessness.

Unlike your manuscript, I accept you with no revisions
I am once again pitching my romantic comedy:

- two academics start dating
- discover they are each other's terrible reviewer
- hijinks ensue

Just as chanting “free Palestine” does not make something antisemitic, yelling it doesn’t magically mean that targeting a Jewish professionals event in a Jewish space isn’t antisemitic (or violent, or senseless, or craven).

BREAKING: Two Israeli Embassy staff members shot and killed outside of the Capital Jewish Museum.

Washington D.C. police chief Pamela Smith says a single suspect is in custody and he chanted “free, free Palestine” while in custody.

My daughter just said to me, unprompted by anything, “I wish you were a medical doctor.”

I’ve never felt so roasted in my life. I’m dead and I won’t recover.

Time doesn’t pass when the Leafs have a one goal lead in the playoffs

This should not be allowed. Florida does this again and again and they injure people again and again and no one does anything.
Grabbed the post game on this. Watch the zoom and where the puck is...and then where the second attempt is. Fucking insane.

If you stop and think about it, it's kind of crazy that before the series we all said "here come the Panthers, they're going to try to injure you and be insanely dirty" and then they do exactly that. And everyone in any position to do anything about it is like haha shucks playoff hockey!

It’s nice when the worst thing doesn’t happen with the Leafs
