I don't think any headphones are a killer deal at full price given how much they end up marked down. The margins must be insane

Paywalled, but I have to assume that by 'conservatives' you mean new radicals dedicated to killing the Constitution.

โ€˜I didnโ€™t mean to scare anyoneโ€™: Dolly Partonโ€™s sister says after asking for prayers Dolly postponed her first Las Vegas residency in more than 30 years late last month, saying she was dealing with health challenges.

Whew. Breathe.

I don't know that this is the *most* unethical thing David Frum has ever done, but in terms of professional *journalistic* ethics? Whooo boy

A resident of a nearby building asks a very important question:

โ€œYou claim you have warrants, but do you have a warrant to seize the entire building?โ€ she asked the agents. โ€œDo you have warrants to detain the entire building?โ€

Or: do people lose their rights if they live near undocumented people?

I do remember both Saban at Alabama and Carroll at 'SC did not have stellar first seasons before becoming perennial National Championship contenders under those 2 coaches, but this does feel a bit different so far. Maybe not.

We never got the 18.5 minutes of Nixon Tapes either... I wonder if anyone has tried to recover those minutes with modern technology...

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.

It is VERY important to note that GOP politicians (as well as the Calvinball SCOTUS) have been abandoning their Oaths to the Constitution for years (see Jan 6) in order for this to happen.

Yeah whatโ€™s remarkable about Trumpโ€™s tariffs is that heโ€™s both implementing them by executive fiat and then spending them by executive fiat, both of which are profoundly, extremely, couldnโ€™t-be-more unconstitutional

If you are a Texan being investigated for your connections to "radical leftist" groups, I am interested in representing you against harassment by Ken Paxton's office.

Publisher of famous Soviet newspaper Pravda falls to his death The secretive head of Pravda publishing house, Vyacheslav Leontyev, 87, plunged 70ft from his home in western Moscow .
