Nice to see a positive version of the "Subway criminal gets off" headline.

Trump is abusing the parts of the country that are worth a damn as entertainment for the parts that aren't.

Has anyone ever read all the words under the headlines? Some crazy stuff happening under there.

There was a treaty. Israel violated it. There was a ceasefire. Israel broke it. There was a hostage deal. The United States reneged on it. You cannot negotiate with these terrorists.

Does Josh Shapiro condemn the IDF terrorist organization?

The only time Mamdani talked about the phrase "globalize the intifada" he was clarifying his position on it. He has continued to maintain the same position since. At this point asking him clarify his position further is just an excuse to use "Mamdani" and a scary Arab word in the same sentence.

Dem Strategist: Zohran is no big deal. We just need to run candidates who are not corrupt and haven't sexually harassed anyone. Conservative Dems: You mean one or the other or both? Because both is a problem.

Emperor Nero insists fiddling has calmed Rome's fires. Experts are divided.

As a former shitty paralegal who had to tell feeble lies all the time to keep my job I find the whole Trump team very relatable at the moment.

Perhaps the first time in history that a nation negotiated to force another country to mass soldiers at its border.

I appreciate so much @morecivilized.bsky.social for providing weeks and weeks of great distraction material.
