REPORTER from Mikie Sherrill’s East Brunswick, NJ victory party: “Her music went from the Ray Charles song ‘Hit the Road, Jack’ to ‘Warrior’.”

ANCHOR back at the studio: “Great, some local flavor with Patti Smith.”

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Democrats: if a panhandler comes up to me on the streets of Manhattan I’m more inclined to fork over $ if they DON’T gild the lily. “I need a few bucks for a drink.” takes less of my time than a song & dance about a sick aunt in the hospital uptown. So, suggested text: SEND MONEY NOW! Keep it brief!

Something I haven’t seen mentioned elsewhere: Trump’s original definition of “Liberation Day” - according to an anecdote relayed in Maggie Haberman’s book “Confidence Man” - had nothing to do with tariffs and everything to do with tits. AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO CAUGHT THIS?!#liberationday #nottariffs

Those country songs about front porches, sweet tea, pickup trucks, dirt roads, beer and the simple superior pleasures of rural life are - subtextually - meant to delegitimize cities (read: Democrats) and make it easier to disenfranchise us, no? But blue states like mine subsidize red ones, yes?

Picture Snatcher (1933) ⭐ 7.0 | Crime, Drama 1h 17m | Not Rated

Why did it take so long to see “Picture Snatcher”?! Pre-code (1933) Warner Bros. filmed “based on a true story” starring James Cagney and Ralph Bellamy and about a mobster who tries to go straight as a photojournalist. Hilarity ensues.

Estrangement? Derangement! Say something I’m giving up on you…

As we hurtle toward oblivion we shed people, wittingly or not. Some we miss, some we don’t… all leave a lasting mark.
