I had assume I’d use the train to get around on my upcoming trip to Germany but your posts about problems with DB have made me wonder whether I should be renting a car?

Since so many categories of crime show decline over the course of the Biden administration, I wonder whether the coverage of tonight’s RNC will spend any time fact checking the claims that are likely to be made.

Tonight will focus on crime, key Senate races, and include Trump challengers Vivek Ramaswamy, Ron DeSantis, and Nikki Haley.

RNC Night 2 begins; plus: Secret Service and Trump campaign we warned of an Iranian plot against himwww.npr.org The development — seemingly unrelated to the shooter in Saturday's shooting — comes as the RNC focuses its second convention day on the theme, "Make America Safe Once Again."

I have often thought that the police themselves provide the best “defund the police” arguments.

Melania Trump: “We they go low, we go high”

In her first formal statement since Saturday’s shooting, former first lady Melania Trump thanked law enforcement officers who protected her husband, and called on Americans to reunite. “Dawn is here again,” she said in a message. wapo.st/4d0bnke

When I lived in Vienna I got to every meeting 20 minutes early bc I always built in 20 minutes to account for subway and bus delays, but there were none.

I don’t understand, wouldn’t you expect Israel to target Hamas military leadership?

Sharing this for all (2? 4?) of you who obsess about politics and baseball and know anything about the Tampa Bay Rays.

Let me be clear: this is fake! Funny, and fake!

And let me also be clear, I didn’t create this (I’m not that funny or creative), it’s from the other site and from this account: x.com/matttomic?s=...

Great idea!

There are only two brothers though.

There just has to be so much cognitive dissonance in a position that is “if I win it’s fair, if I lose it’s cheating” even for someone that is not especially bright.

I mean, we can’t disenfranchise that 45% so what is plan B?

Is the difference now that US in unwilling to say stop, or that Israel wouldn’t listen if they did?

That’s the upside, I get to read things that are of interest to me but not so close to my own research that I would have read them on my own. And since you are reading published material the quality is much better than the Ms you get as a journal reviewer. But I’ve never done more than 1 a year!

Yes but we have no idea who can get to 270, hence the lack of consensus.

This 100%. Anyone who wants to opine on the Dem nomination should first be required to say: 1. I have no idea how this election will play out, and 2. All I care about is defeating Trump. THEN they are allowed to share their view of why Biden obviously should/should not be the nominee.

I’m just taken aback by the idea that Glasnow needed fixing, he was a tremendously effective pitcher for the Rays whose results looked pretty much the way they do with the Dodgers.

Are voters like people who always get crushes on unavailable men/women and then wonder why they never have stable relationships?

Also this same doctor visited about as many times when Obama was president, and of course we have no idea how often he was there during the Trump admin. So framing the visits this way is very problematic.

Kvetching to their spouses over breakfast? If that’s the definition just this morning I privately called for Dems to stop texting their angst to reporters and for the Rays to give up on this season and trade some vets for prospects at the deadline.

Excellent for Israel because the ensuing rise in antisemitism would drive more French Jews to leave France for Israel?

I mean whatever their choices, there needs to be a left-center coalition which will end up governing kind of like…the Biden admin has governed.
