I can see where there is confusion. On my screen (even expanded to full screen) it cuts off the bottom and you can't see where exactly they are standing on the carpet. Melania looks like she's been pushed off and is on the asphalt. Maybe a proper press pool cameraman would have filmed that better...

Yes you can see the four spots on the end of the carpet where it expands out. But he stopped short of them. If he had stopped on the designated spot, Melania would not have been pushed off the carpet and would have stood on her spot too. I don't think this is a medical issue. I think he's just dumb.

Probably. But it is being shown to him to encourage him to do it. As if it’s proof that he has the support of the people to do it.

Trying to focus on my health. Very cliche, I know. But I’m seeing my parents struggle through their health issues and don’t want to end up like that. I also unexpectedly left my corporate job and had to pivot to working independently. Coincidentally, my health improved considerably…

So there is someone in ICE who's job is to scour the USCIS files of legal residents and find any possible reason they can arrest them and deport them. Information like this doesn't just pop up on a simple search. You have to dig deep in the archives. I hope that person rots in hell...

I’m probably giving that dumbass Burgum too much credit but I wonder if he posted this because if there is a defamation case he could say he truly believed it was the truth. Since he’s a public figure, wouldn’t the prosecution have to prove he knowingly lied in order to hurt the defendant?

When she was on Fox I used to think she was just towing the company line and couldn’t really be that awful. And I felt some sympathy for her over the Roger Ailes stuff. But it’s now apparent that Fox was actually restraining her vile racism. What a horrid woman!

It’s sooo good!I binged it this past weekend and thought episode 8 was it and the season ended on a cliffhanger. But now I see there are still two more episodes to go and I can’t wait to see what messed up thing is about to happen.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

To be fair, the Met has kept Feb dark for several seasons now. It started as a cost saving measure. This season they added perfs in Feb of the new opera they premiered in the fall after they saw it was so successful. But yes, the tour to SA was supposed to be a new revenue stream but that's gone now

Heartbreaking description of the pointless, thoughtless damage being done to the Kennedy Center. It was such an important part of life in Washington, and is now being destroyed for no reason www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

What I Saw Inside the Kennedy Center
I spent 10 months working at the institution because I thought I could help protect it. What I observed there is far worse than the public knows.

I suspect the Pope sounds "woke" to many Christian conservatives because the US is steeped in prosperity theology, where the point of worship is to deliver health and wealth to believers. Thus, "feed the hungry" and "show mercy for the poor" sounds needlessly political and "woke."

I feel sick to my stomach waiting around to see what atrocity Trump has in mind for the people of Iran this evening. It's hard to fathom our other elected leaders aren't able to check him in any meaningful way. It's an indictment not just of voters but of our whole system. We're ruled by a mad king.

This is what happens when 77 million people take leave of their senses and put a manifestly unqualified, unfit, mentally ill narcissistic man-child in charge of the country and the world's most powerful. military. This is what happens when the media 'bothsides' election coverage.

I used to write the WaPo editorials on US-Africa policy, as well on as human rights and politics on the continent. To describe hundreds of thousands of deaths on the continent as “messy” is an absolute abomination.

My hairstylist and I were talking about this last night during my haircut.As someone who was a teenager during the 90s, I'm horrified to see this ultra thin craze return. It was so bad and I know that even 30 years later I'm still dealing with some of those insecurities and I really resent it.

Soooo good! Nerds Gummy Clusters are becoming the preferred fueling options for amateur runners. Same benefits as those nasty Gu gels but cheaper and tastier. People were trading the small packages of them in the NYC marathon village last fall. It was the hot item.

I was just thinking the same thing. An account that just posts funny videos of their cat & dog posted about supporting MN residents tonight. I’m glad to see it. It’s time to get off the sidelines and take a stand, brand relationships and follower counts be damned!

Who gets the $30 million endowment? What's going on with the shared orchestra? “We have a very large legal team," says the opera's artistic director.
