Under no circumstances do you have to hand it to Rahm Emanuel, but I have to believe there'd be way fewer public defections from the party with a guy like that as CoS

I love sports; I'm a NCAAF fan despite all the baggage it has and think there are few better ways to spend a summer evening than at a ballpark with beer in hand. But my god the damage that Sports Brain has done to portions of our society.

as long as everyone has a good time

More coverage like this please

How far will the fossil fuel industry go to protect itself from climate impacts it helped cause? A $21 billion liquefied natural gas plant in Louisiana will be surrounded by a 26-foot-high steel sea wall to stave off rising seas.

A rising fortress in sinking landwapo.st Rising seas and steel walls test the strength of a Louisiana coastal gas development, raising questions about flooding, climate change and community impacts.

If I were a major national news apparatus I might have a little self-reflection on how I got so broadsided by the President's apparently diminished capacity, before treating it like the story of the decade

SAO PAULO (AP) — Brazil's federal police indict ex-President Bolsonaro for money laundering and criminal association, source confirms.

One thing that annoys me about the Democratic consultant class is how they act like they're brass-knuckle streetfighters and yet don't have the stones to run nonstop ads about Trump's extensive connections to Jeffrey Epstein. It's all true! It's documented! There are photos!

Trump later appointed this federal prosecutor as his first U.S. Secretary of Labor. www.kare11.com/article/news...

Yep. I'm 42. The first election I was old enough to vote in was decided by 5 Supreme Court Justices leaping in to stop a state recount, admitting their legal analysis was a one-off, then never analyzing any future case the same way. And it will be like this until I die.

One thing you have to realize is that on the two issues that matter most to NYT leadership (transphobia and punishing dissenting Ivy Leaguers), Donald Trump is legitimately their perfect candidate

"He’s being selfish. He’s putting himself ahead of the country. He’s surrounded by opportunistic enablers. He has created a reality distortion field where we’re told not to believe what we’ve plainly seen. His hubris is infuriating." www.nytimes.com/2024/06/29/o...

Opinion | The Ghastly vs. the Ghostlywww.nytimes.com Do the Democrats really want to stop Trump? What are they prepared to do?

It's amazing that Microsoft is spending time on a creepy tool to record all your activity when it still can't figure out how to prevent Windows from waking your laptop while in your backpack (or not rebooting overnight without permission because of some stupid update).

Guess I should really get on renewing my passport, huh

Trump said the wildest, most insane, psychotic bilious shit imaginable and he *did* sound more coherent than Biden. That’s how disastrous it was for Biden.

game 7 of the world series, final inning. I'm at bat with two outs. my team is down by one, with one on base. the pitcher slips on a banana peel and sends the ball sailing slowly and gracefully directly over home plate. "I won't swing," I think, "that wouldn't be fair"

The Biden campaign has no plans for paid ads involving the verdict, a source tells me. That cannot set the tone for the whole party. There's a big opening to use this against not just Trump, but also Rs who attacked our system to put him above the law. newrepublic.com/article/1821...
