It occurs to me that Trump received terrible news from his doctors and that's why he's in such a hurry to stick his name and/or his face on everything he can.
Hope you find this cheering.

The Dick van Dyke Show, some of the very best television ever, was based on Carl Reiner's experience in the writers' room for Sid Caesar.
So among the many horrible aspects of the murder of Rob and Michelle Singer Reiner is that a person killed Richie Petrie.

American cops would have shot that man who stopped the gunman, let the gunman the away with a stroll and then sued the hero for making them look bad.

You can tell there has been a toddler in my apartment because when I flush the toilet, I say, “Bye-bye, poop.”

My daughter is learning words very quickly these days but is not super interested in circling back for words we’ve already worked on. Anyway she can say “Martian” now but still hasn’t said “grandma”

So, today is Trump delusion, by himself and his incompetent cult, despite nearly 12 months in office, he’s in no way responsible for what his own government is doing. And if you ask about this glaring dishonesty, you’re “stupid”.

Yup
After the largest peaceful pro-democracy demonstrations in American history, and a blue wave election where voters clearly and loudly said FIGHT ALL OF THIS CHAOS, it is malpractice and disqualifying for an elected Democrat to suggest caving to Trump.
I'm looking in your direction, Chuck Schumer.

What he said
This actually makes him an insane person, by the way
Senate Democratic Minority Leader Schumer’s decision not to endorse Zohran Mamdani in the NYC mayoral race “was driven in large part…by his self-conception as a guardian of Israel, something he considers a core part of his personal and political identity.”

everyone deserves to get their basic needs met but Trump et al. are willing to let everyday people suffer to put money in rich people's pockets

Not sure if I agree with Mamdani’s opinions about Israel, but also they have nothing to do with being mayor of New York.
(Note: I may agree with them. Just think they are irrelevant.)

LOCAL HERO is on TCM. One of my favorite movies ever, and I always notice something wonderful every time I watch it. Mark Knopfler’s score is transcendent.
