Klein set up a straw man, and Stevenson did a brilliant job of dismembering it.

The book's subject, Charles Lennox, is also the older brother of the sisters so compellingly portrayed in Stella Tillyard's book The Aristocrats. Looking forward to spending more time in that era, with that milieu.

“Trump rejects idea”? No. Trump lies about what he said.

What do you mean by "the issue of climate change"? Weather disasters? Insurance hikes? Health impacts? All important to "working class voters." Democrats need to Talk About Stuff That Matters. Climate change is a kitchen table issue. (Also, Al Gore already tried your approach and it didn't work.)

Best line: "Prior to joining the Trump Administration, neither Fox nor Cavanaugh had any experience in government. . . In fact, as both were in their twenties, they did not have much experience in anything at all – certainly not in anything remotely related to the humanities."

The judge got it: "Prior to joining the Trump Administration, neither Fox nor Cavanaugh had any experience in government. . .In fact, as both were in their twenties, they did not have much experience in anything at all -- certainly not in anything remotely related to the humanities."

When I reviewed it, it started at 1:50. "You trigger my gag reflex" (per Kennedy) was about 1:54. Wouldn't want to miss that. Kennedy surely thought that he'd get video clips. Didn't go his way.

Dear NPR, What is a border czar? Seriously. If you call him that, does it mean something? It doesn’t. So why give him the courtesy title?

"Was she in danger?" Scott Jennings exclaims, incredulously, after Abby Phillip asks him whether Rene Good might have been trying to escape confrontation. Given that Rene Good was shot in the face seconds later, Jennings' question is absurd. Yes. She was in danger.

Thank you for your consistent opposition to bad Republican actions and policies.

Jasmine Crockett is right, you're wrong. You don't "represent" me on this. So disgusted. bsky.app/profile/andr...

The author lets drop that "travel is fun." And. . .fun is bad? "If you think that this doesn’t apply to you" is just a cheap, condescending trick. She can assess her own experience at the falconry in Abu Dhabi as worthless, but nobody else is capable of self-assessment. Right? Hooey.

You're talking about Trump "wins" to make us glad to see you go, aren't you?

Every now and then, you read an article that just makes you want to throw up. Your article, giving credence to a eugenicist: That’s one. Be better. Write so your readers don’t want to throw up.

Does "fighting" include "failing to show up for the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing"? Does "fighting" mean that you release a statement saying that Emil Bove's nomination is "troubling," but then you're too busy and important to attend the damn hearing?

Quel excellent ambassadeur Charles Kushner sera, délicieusement corrompu. Est-il votre ami ?

Once Mrs. Dalloway's head was severed, he walked away. Not an improvement, but homage to Hilary Mantel and PBS.

No wonder they don't like the media coverage, which is telling the whole world about their "capitulation." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Thank you for your "no" vote on cloture.

What a stone cold hypocrite you turned out to be! "Saying things" while voting with Musk, Trump, and Johnson. For shame.

Voters are responding to Chuck Schumer's appalling capitulation to the Republicans' CR. Remember: if you vote for cloture or the CR, you own the results. Don't be a VichyCrat.

I don't think that this word, "fighting," means what you think it means. Collaborating with Republicans to pass the CR is not "fighting for us."

jom123.bsky.social @jom123.bsky.social · 13/03/2025
You are NOT fighting for seniors if you vote for cloture, collaborate with the Republicans, and allow the CR to pass. It's a betrayal of Americans of all ages and an abdication of your responsibility. That is not leadership.
