He understands even less than I thought.

Helped that Kansas couldn’t hit their shots in the second half.

Hate to say, I know quite a lot of people who believe, incorrectly, as he does.

Is this before or after an exec from the same company passed out and Trump clearly couldn’t care less?

Start the reductions at 400% and work up to 4,000%.

Probably during the World Cup selection ceremony, which is next month. Hope I’m wrong.

I think Congressional Republicans and Trump’s Cabinet ought to invade Nigeria in person and if they don’t make it back Democrats take over government here.

We were cheering down here in North Carolina and I’m sure many other places. Can’t say I ever cared about the NY Mayor’s race before this one.

The best NC State has looked in many years, including the Final Four run two years ago. The Reckoning is here.

Speaking as a High Point citizen, glad he’s gone.

We better keep an eye on that bunch.

Mamdani doesn’t lie constantly so he’s certainly no left-wing Trump.

NC State whooping #8 Georgia Tech was even better

NC State beats undefeated #8 Georgia Tech. Biggest win in years.

I read the whole, long piece specifically because they tried to kill it. It’s going to be constant, unending electoral and legal warfare with these people.

I was part of the internal Trump administration team trying to convince the president to end the shutdown in 2018 - 2019 β€” for 35 days β€” before people went hungry, workers lost pay, and government services collapsed.

Here’s what I learned: he doesn’t give a shit.
