In the mid-1990s, I interviewed Pat Summerall about his battles with alcohol and the intervention by his family and closest friends that led to his recovery and sobriety. 1/2

this is not behavior becoming of a FIFA Peace Prize recipient.

Welcome your thoughts, opinions, suggestions. As you say, what Trmp does affects the entire world.

White women aren’t all the same. Some are conservative, some liberal, some religious, some anarcho-nihilists, some are moms and CEOs, some are drug addicts. This argument over why women won’t vote for women because they’re women is reductive and sexist. Women are individuals.

Pulling up Blueskie and seeing the gang-up on Jimmy Fallon and not sure why, other than it’s Tuesday and his turn in the barrel?

RFK is looking more and more like the Dark Knight.

In fact, it’s the complete opposite.

@minakimes.bsky.social How far back does this Steelers hatred go? Maybe back to February 5, 2006?

Masked ICE agent says he “doesn’t care” if he’s a citizen as he kidnaps U.S. teen. This has got to end. #Pinks #ProudBlue #Resist #FuckICE

Rep. Crockett’s Statement on the Supreme Court’s Ruling on Texas’s 2026 Map

Brilliant, Bill!

How white nationalist tribe replaces church for young people seeking a community.

An apologist for war crimes.

Of course, the NY Times complaint of disgraced political journalist Olivia Nuzzi's memoir boils down to: "It simply wasn’t lit’ry enough, darling." Time to clutch your pearls, refill the sherry, and commence the salon-level handwringing. #nuzzi

My cartoon in this weeks @newyorker.com

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

Tomlin has two more years on his contract. He ain’t going nowhere.

Makes sense

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits

This has a “round up the usual subjects” vibe.

Tom Stoppard on his immigrant family.

My prayers are with the National Guard members injured in today’s senseless shooting. Grateful for the officers and first responders who moved quickly. There is no place for this kind of violence in our country.

Happy 130th birthday to Bill W, who along with Dr. Bob, helped change the lives of millions of alcoholics.

DOJ memo: Trump and Giuliani pressed Members of Congress to delay certification—even after the Capitol was under attack Jack Smith had “ample predication” to subpoena their phone records. The DOJ is on the record. The Members who took those calls still aren’t. History is watching #BlueSky #NewsSky

Dear God, I hope you can keep Sen Kelly safe. He’s one of the good ones and our country needs leaders like him right now.

I stand with Senator Mark Kelly

Pittsburgh unions. You gotta love the strength of this one, in particular. Amazing. A book should come out of it.

ppl are talking about the doge shutdown as tho it means something positive. it was a smash and grab. a successful one.

They are all vile, dangerous fucks.

People should be required to vote, like they're required to pay taxes. But the mechanics of that would be impossible without massive investment in voting machinery, personnel etc.

Hilarious. When I read the lengthy bamboo musings in Part 1, I kept thinking “Block That Metaphor! Block That Metaphor!”

Trump today called a female reporter “Piggy.” Who is she? Catherine Lucey of Bloomberg. What’s amazing is that none of her colleagues in the scrum spoke up. What if they’d all said: “That’s not acceptable!” I was a news reporter for 40 years. You don’t give up your humanity for access.

How can a journalist who achieved top-rung national status be so damn gullible? The city hall reporter in Davenport, Iowa, wouldn’t accept this BS. Gimme local news reporters over these national prima donnas any day.

Definitely worth a follow.

Good gawd, I can’t buy a pack of gum in a gas station without getting an email asking “Could you take 30 seconds to leave us a review.”

This is exactly what I thought the nepo baby who wrote the Olivia Nuzzi article looks like

RFK: There once was a man from Nantucket... OLIVIA NUZZI: I can't resist a man who knows poetry.

Wilma Rudolph overcame childhood polio & years in a leg brace to become the fastest woman runner in the world! #inspiration The first American woman, as well as the first Black woman, to win 3 gold medals in a single Olympiad, Rome 1960. 🥇🥇🥇 She died #OTD in 1994.

For more than 3 years, @pghguild.com members at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have shown incredible strength while on strike. Their heroic persistence demonstrates the real power of our solidarity and what’s possible when we come together in a union.

The way the unionized Pittsburgh Post Gazette workers held out for THREE YEARS until they got what they deserved is exactly what organized resistance should be.

Roman Catholic bishops in the U.S. chose new leaders on Tuesday. The new president is an archbishop from Oklahoma City who issued a statement two days after President Trump’s inauguration calling on Catholics to remember that Jesus was once a refugee, and to support immigrant families.

If you want to understand how we got here it’s bc of stupid MFERS like this: “I MAY NOT VOTE IN THE MIDTERMS”

We could do this in Texas. But the Republicans must protect the Christo-fascist billionaire oilmen.

The wrapper didn't split so they had to acquit.

White House aides quietly removed ketchup bottles and packets prior to the polls closing yesterday.

Or a MAMdate.
