There was no happy ending for Patriots' owner Robert Kraft today.

Infuriating @nytimes.com

President Trump's norm-shattering posts have reset our nation's political dialogue.

The Atlantic was founded in 1857, the New York Times in 1851. So it's a bit surprising that David Brooks is leaving the Times for the Atlantic, given that the Atlantic is only six years younger.

David Brooks is leaving his position as a columnist at the New York Times to become the Atlantic's airport whiskey correspondent.

This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

Infuriating. Be brave and bold, Senator Gillibrand. @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social

Gillibrand is legitimately even worse than Schumer.

There are few things more disturbing than witnessing the government gun down your fellow citizen on a city street. The more Democrats share video of this, the more they alienate reasonable centrists. by Editorial Board of the Free Press

Americans must have the right to bear arms so that they can resist tyranny. But if they exercise that right in a time of tyranny, they should expect to be shot and killed.

@peterbakernyt.bsky.social Trump not is advancing "one-sided narratives"--he is telling lies. You presuppose two sides, when in this situation there are not. He is telling a lie, a word that @nytimes, with all its primness & bothsidesism, refuses to use. And thus the NYT itself denies the truth.

If our administration is as racist as the Left claims, then why have the past two civilians we've murdered been white? by J.D. Vance

My gratitude to poet and memoirist Maggie Smith, host of The Slowdown podcast from American Public Media, for meditating upon and reading my poem "Birthday Wish." Maybe today you'll wish to be more like a dog or a tree.

It’s time to stop the influx of immigrants who take drugs, father children out of wedlock, and steal from the government. by Elon Musk

I haven't watched any of the videos of the shooting of Renee Good but the fact that people on the left think it was murder while people on the right think it was self-defense shows that that the truth must be somewhere in the middle.

To stay up-to-date on breaking news, we are sunsetting our coverage of: - The Venezuelan boat assassinations - The Tom Homan bribery case - The dismantling of the CDC, USAID, and Department of Education - Alligator Alcatraz - The pardon of drug traffickers - The Qatari jet - The Epstein files

ICE just reported its fourth in-custody death of 2026. It’s only January 10.

Donald Trump says he’d be honored to have Maria Corina Machado give him her Nobel Peace Prize. Here’s 1500 words on young people’s pathetic need for participation trophies.

To protect the children of Minnesota from welfare fraud, we must cut off welfare money to the children of Minnesota. by Russ Vought

Donald Trump is doing extrajudicial war the right way. by Ezra Klein

At what point does it become Zohran Mamdani's Turkish bribery scandal?

A new year. A new mayor for New York. A new hope.

Zohran Mamdani has yet to give a solo press conference since taking office.

On the one hand, they have redacted Trump’s name from the Epstein Files. On the other hand, they have put it on the Kennedy Center.

My kids have measles, there are no toys on the shelves, and I can't afford a steak. But at least there's no sign language interpreter at White House press briefings now.

This pizza is poetry. Go to Emily in Brooklyn, order the delicious Trio House pie, and support independent publishing.

I lost my job, my kids have measles, and my town is flooded with cocaine now that Trump pardoned all the traffickers. But at least the State Department is using Times New Roman again.

I have been canceled and de-platformed for my political beliefs. Learn the full story in my feature-length essay in The Free Press, my interview on 60 Minutes, my chat/cooking demo on CBS Mornings, and my lecture series at the University of Austin.

Secretary Pete Hegseth, a Princeton graduate, was unable to comprehend that photographs create mirror images of their subjects. Here's why affirmative action has lowered the standards of Ivy League admissions.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth chastised Sen. Mark Kelly for incorrectly displaying his military uniform medals, not comprehending that photographs reverse images from left to right. Here’s what that says about Joe Biden’s cognitive state.

Whether it’s centrist pundits feeling politically homeless or then-Congressman Matt Gaetz having sex with a homeless 17 year-old, homelessness is having a moment.

Opinion | It's time for eight brave House Democrats to step up and block the release of the Epstein files. by John Fetterman and Tim Kaine

Releasing the Epstein files could have a chilling effect on future presidents' ability to hide their history of raping children on a private island owned by a convicted sex offender.

jack schlossberg spent this past summer podcasting in his van.

Curious about the Senate vote to reopen the government without healthcare concessions from Trump? These sheet pan waffles will make you think you’re chatting with Dick Durbin and Tim Kaine.

Tender Is the Right Careless Donald thought he was the last tycoon,and his party was the biggest Gatsby gaffe since the Redford Flick. Now his only GOP critic is MTG, who's more Daisy Duke than Daisy Buchanan, but soon Pete won't be one drinking like F. Scott Fitzgerald. by Maureen Dowd

My model predicts that Andrew Cuomo will never again hold elected office. And I tell you the best place in Westchester to get a Manhattan. All that and more in the next Silver Bulletin.

Dick Cheney led America into a disastrous war based on false evidence. But he did so with civility, and for that I am eternally grateful. by David Brooks

Is it too early to call Zohran Mamdani a neoliberal sell-out?

Zohran Mamdani is proposing some small changes to the way New York City government operates. So why does it feel like he's promising full communism on day one?

Donald Trump just endorsed Andrew Cuomo. Here’s why that’s bad news for Zohran Mamdani.

Why do young liberals love Zohran Mamdani? We talked to 3 elderly Staten Island conservatives who can’t correctly say his name.
