It’s not too surprising Cuomo interprets “no” as a “maybe”

No better way to build morale in the military than forcing troops to march down largely empty streets in a thunderstorm to celebrate a draft dodger’s birthday

And the majority of the State AG community is against this prohibition because of its far reaching implications.

The push notification for this stated something like “might could” may be “fixin’ to” disappear. And let me tell you—not on my mama’s watch.

She might could single-handedly preserve the dialect.

Is the Southern accent fixin' to disappear in parts of the US South? Southern accents are disappearing in some parts of the U.S. South due to the migration of people into the region from other parts of the United States and around the world.

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while:

We are speedrunning the Declaration of Independence, folks.

About time LATech recognized you. Congratulations!

The pure goodness of Kansans is what I love most about this state and its people.

A Kansas pastor takes up the fight for trans rights Charles McKinzie is a small-town pastor and lifelong Republican. Unlike many of his religious peers, he's also a vocal critic of new laws restricting gender-affirming care for Kansas minors. Plus: a l...

“Just as there is a spectrum of light and dark, because we have sunrises and sunsets in the same way, I think that God's creation is broad enough and beautiful enough and wide enough to include variations of what we have understood as a gender binary.”

Con law prof here. This shit is WILD. "Plenary authority, derived from Article II and the mandate of the electorate" to disappear whoever the state deems a terrorist is not a fucking thing in any kind of constitutional democracy. It's unvarnished tyranny.

FDR once bragged to a massive crowd at Madison Square Garden that the richest people in the nation hated him and “I welcome their hatred.”

Just weeks later, he was re-elected with 61% of the vote in a 523-8 blowout in the Electoral College.

Voters *like* politicians who make the right enemies.

The scale of corruption being perpetrated right now is almost beyond the limits of imagination. This is just one example, almost certainly not the greatest.

I’m sorry I am sure you have an excellent point but they took away the hour I had allocated to care about it

Not the SOC slander, too.

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little."

—FDR, 1937

Don’t tell me democracy is at risk and a constitutional crisis is unfolding and the best you got is a modified ping pong paddle.

"Bring back law and order", says the convicted felon who is firing DOJ lawyers, destroying agencies illegally, and pardoning criminals that stormed the capitol to overturn an election.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

An Arsonist Posing as a Firefighter | National Review Trump breaks things only to pretend he is fixing them.

“President Donald Trump continues to be the guy in the neighborhood who smashes storefront windows and then begs glass-repair shops to support him because of his economic stimulus plan.”

Trump's Deportations Will Hit American Workers, Too Previous expulsions of migrant laborers have proven economically harmful—even for the people the policies were supposed to help.

Fewer immigrants =fewer jobs
Studies show that when deportations increase, the US construction, childcare, and farming industries shrink. Less growth means fewer opportunities for everyone.

This is like Senators asking for Trump to release funding for their pet projects. When you campaigned for a personalist presidency you have turned yourself into a beggar seeking the King’s favor rather than a citizen who can be confident of equal treatment for all.

The author’s upcoming American Airline flight from DFW to MCI with a 17C seat assignment.

“Oh my God, I’m in 17C.” Lisa Barlow, the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City’s first class aficionado of flight travel, stated exasperatedly when fashion icon and notorious credit card holder Bronwyn Newport failed to reserve first class accommodations for Lisa’s 65-minute flight.

The Walmart Effect New research suggests that the company makes the communities it operates in poorer—even taking into account its famous low prices.

Walmart’s defenders argue that the company's low prices are a boon to poor and middle-class families, Rogé Karma writes. But new research suggests that Walmart “makes the places it operates in poorer than they would be if it had never shown up at all”:
