a screenshot that says β€œmake it a cartoon with Meta AI” and is a picture of me and then a cartoon version that looks absolutely nothing like me because AI is trash

My daughter and i are loving BLACK DOVES
It’s been around a while but the acting is really exceptional and so far the plot is good

Trump’s Peace Plan for Ukraine, Annotated Here’s a breakdown of some of the key points in the plan and how Ukraine and its European allies might respond.

This excellent WSJ annotation of the Molotov/Ribbentrop … sorry, Witkoff/Dmitriev … β€œpeace deal” for Ukraine shows how ridiculously vague and utterly unworkable this thing is

So they close the curtain on the declaration when they’re criming?

MAMDANI: And I just think that there are barriers, barricades, to helping Americans that we can break down
TRUMP: Uh huh
MAMDANI: And breaking down barriers? Reminds me of a certain Broadway show *smiling widely* where they worked together to break a barricade?
TRUMP: *sitting bolt upright* Phantom

And dealing with abuses directly led to excellent laws like the Presidential Records Act
But not calling people out led to sen Hawley saying on camera that (basically) Trump can do whatever he wants with the files bc the act β€œhas him covered”
This is why we have to remain vigilant

There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.

The staff that then went on to VEEP could curse in a way that was breathtakingly beautifully original
I remember going to dinner w Tony Roche in London with my kids and he didn’t want to curse in front of them but you could see him so frustrated he continually verged on spontaneously combusting

I remember our standards & practices guy on the DREW CAREY show very proudly shared with us we could now say β€œbutt weasel” on the show
But it really didn’t work in the context of the line & we were all kind of mystified why he brought it up until Ryan posited that Neal just pitched curse words a lot

Considering that the other side policies are the real obscenity i think it’s meeting the cultural moment
We’re showing it’s not Queensberry rules anymore
If I’ve learned anything from those incessant diner interviews it’s that his crew admires his brusque candor and direct style
Take it from them

Seriously, as a kid doc, I hate that Cassidy sold out the medical community, public health as well a the Hippocratic and/or Geneva Oath to carry water for Trump. His vote gave Kennedy the power to discredit the CDC for generations to come. Screw this guy.

"Well, yes, Mamdani and I have our differences. He's a socialist, they say he's a socialist, and I guess he says so too. A democratic socialist, but a socialist. Meanwhile, I'm busy seizing the means of production, forcing a cultural revolution, cracking down on the intelligentsia ...."
