Every New Yorker (including 47) knows Washington Square arch. It was built in 1892. 🤔 In 1917, Dadaist artist Marcel Duchamp and his friends sneaked up to the roof of the arch, shot off toy pistols, and declared Greenwich Village an independent republic. 😄

What, me worry?  "The president ... said ... that crews were performing a safety check on the slide, but that there was no real danger. 'They want to make sure everything works perfectly,' he said. Crews appeared to cart away the emergency slide just before the jet took off." 🫤

A fun fact that'll make paying your bills cheerier: Trump's "Arts of War" and "Arts of Peace" equestrian statues in D.C. are coated in an extra-thick layer of 23.75-karat gold leaf.

Statements like this usually start with: "first, I want to apologize to my wife and family." Sometimes there's a "I want to apologize to my staff who believe in the ideas that have energized this campaign." I can't find those in this horrible letter.

Who names these programs? Does 47's League of Cosmic Geniuses know that a quantum is the smallest possible, indivisible unit of any physical property, such as energy or matter? Like, almost nonexistent. 🤣

The Speaker of the House must be holding the Constitution upside down. "Mr. Johnson ... has argued that separation of church and state is 'misunderstood,' and that 'the Founders wanted to protect the church from an encroaching state, not the other way around.'"

A member of Congress – doesn't matter who – should raise the 25th Amendment every single day, on the floor, on the record, using the one minute speech provision. Yep, only the Vice President can initiate the 25th process, but a daily show & tell would keep hope alive.

Performative threats never yield long-term peace. They create deep bitterness and engender more war. Trump says Iran talks will resume, threatens power plants and bridges if no deal

To those who say, "well, what about GOP wrongdoing?" I suggest it can't matter at this juncture. Democrats must be the party of #integrity. He's got to drop out. That said, Swalwell deserves his day in court, and should not be removed from office until he has it.

Who buys the administration's rationale? (Any student of history wouldn't.) 👉 Per NYT: the government’s effort to collect the names and phone numbers of Jewish people on campus as it investigates antisemitism has upset some people who worry about how the information will be used.
