“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Smoke detectors should know what time of day it is so if they’re running low on batteries they can think, “that’s more of a mid-morning problem.”

"Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians not directly taking part in hostilities, even if they are believed to be smuggling drugs."

"Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians not directly taking part in hostilities, even if they are believed to be smuggling drugs."

hey @nytimes.com: there is no counterpoint here. There are no credible legal experts who would EVER say that the US military has any right or authority to blow civilian craft out of the Caribbean and kill their crews from afar without any provocation. There is no other side to this question.

The Bipartisan March Toward Gutting Public Schools, in Denver and Beyond Is public education a public or a private good? This issue is at the heart of the school choice debate sweeping the country.   Advocates for school choice are advancing policies...

@bennet.senate.gov is backed by the $$$$ of pro-charter school groups. Who will he answer to?
"Public education is one of the last shared institutions that binds us together across race, class, and geography; when we weaken it, we weaken democracy itself.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

Joe Manchin Would Like a Word. (OK, Maybe Several Words.)

Just like Joe to jump in and ruin Dem chances.“He acknowledged that he is considering running as a third-party candidate in 2028.” Maybe he'll pick Sinema as he VP candidate.
