Largish white dude. Not a fan of guns, forced birthers, or anti-vaxxers. Haven’t seen a sane republican since hw bush. And he kinda sucked.

honestly, I think people prefer higher unemployment to higher inflation. Unemployment affects a smaller number of people. Inflation affects everyone. But not sure where the inflection point is b/w the two...

I still can't understand why there would be an ethical problem if Smith and Willis did communicate. They were working on the same perp! If one hit evidence that the other could use, what's the legal prohibition from sharing it? IANAL but don't law enforcement agencies share info all the time?

Breaking character: I hate to use this account for political strategizing but the ball needs to get rolling on this....when Dems take the House they've got to focus on impeaching Hegseth. He can be be blamed for the Iran war plus he's a drunk and a criminal.

Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.

The Supreme Court’s willingness to use the 14th Amendment to emancipate white people from Black elected officials—but not to help Black people elect officials—signals its fundamentally racist priorities.

Jim Crow was on the ash heap of history. Then came the Roberts court.
The disaster the justices have unleashed has its roots in one of the darkest periods of our past.

I’m not original to this thought, but it seems like these clowns are big standard Rs these days. Not crazies can’t get out of the primaries. That’s fine when the environment even just lightly favors them but when it doesn’t their craziness works double against them.
