Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.

Here is my recommendation for your 2026 reading list:

All my best posts are on Bluesky - I just use Twitter for the same reason people visit Florida: morbid curiosity.

This is horrifying.
Unbelievable.
Very few things piss me off more than anti-vax morons killing their children.

I just discovered that Minnesota's donut game is years ahead of everyone else's. Square donuts give more donut bites without sacrificing donut functionality. They're making fools of us all. We should worship these people, or burn them like witches.

It's so funny that the White House has decided, since Tuesday evening, that its big focus will be costs — after eight months of splattering gold paint all over the White House and after a big Roaring '20s party at the private club the president bought from a Post cereals heiress.

Attention all charities: you are wonderful organizations that do much good. May I ask you to:
1. Stop issuing membership cards, especially plastic ones. They are of no use to me or to you.
2. Stop sending calendars. I get some 20 calendars in the mail every year, which is 20 more than I need.

This is what should be in the headlines.
The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
