Resistant. Hopeful (despite everything). Wrote “World History for Dummies” and other stuff, including many theater reviews. Proud survivor of newspaper journalism. Seek to be kind and respectful, but sometimes fail. Stop Donald and his evil cohort!

Not to defend Olivia Nuzzi, who broke every rule in journalism and promoted a charlatan to his current position. But it's incredibly telling that she will lose her job, but RFK Jr. gets to stay in his job despite the reports of his drug use, his affairs and his defenestrating of public health.

How nice that today the current occupant of the White House got his very own participation prize. All of the pathetic sycophantic children in the White House must be so proud of daddy.

You do realize that if whatever is in the Epstein files that the Felon in Chief seems to be afraid of is, indeed, a federal crime, we'll see the first ever self presidential pardon?

There is no legitimate reason not to release the complete Sep. 2 video.

They released video of the first strike. What national security justification could there be for releasing video of the first part of the action but not the second? They wanted to cover up what happened after the first strike.

It's been over two weeks now and they still haven't released the Epstein files because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

To the entitled young man in the Lexus SUV who threw trash out of his car on North Pearl this afternoon that bounced off my little hybrid: If you’re old enough to grow a mustache, you’re old enough to know better than to litter in Tacoma. #pnw

41 minutes is a long time to sit in your air conditioned office watching men struggle to survive as you decide to kill them.

He didn’t notice that the cars he was promoting had those scary electric motors? I seem to recall that he declared, on video, “I love Teslers (sic)?”

Trump has been slapped with a $310 million lawsuit alleging that the he engaged in a “trafficking venture” that was “identical in every material respect” to the sex-trafficking operation allegedly run by Jeffrey Epstein.

The lawsuit names Trump in both his individual and official capacity.

Where’s your tear down of dementia Donnie? Your orchestrated media destruction of Biden was disgusting, but even worse is your complete lack of journalistic integrity & complicity in continuing to act as if this man is a functioning leader.
Do your damn jobs!

PSYCHOPATH TRUMP CONTINUES TO LIE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH JEFFREY EPSTEIN

Why did Trump write so many checks to Epstein, through Russian banks? Was he financing Epstein's operations?

Rubio: “What they're literally fighting over now is about 30 to 50 kilometer space in the 20% of the Donetsk region that remains.”

Sovereignty, dignity, and its existence - THAT is what Ukraine is fighting for.

The lack of willingness to understand what is actually going on IS the problem.

Where's the 24-7 coverage on Trump's declining health, inability to stay awake DURING TELEVISED events, cankles, two MRIs, and lack of stamina?

Where's Jake Tapper?

NYT?

Fox?
