Rest in power, Virginia Giuffre. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Just another day I am grateful that l I did not build Democracy Docket on Substack. It's harder and more expensive, but it allows Democracy Docket to remain truly independent and pro-democracy. www.democracydocket.com

She never lived to see this moment, but it’s worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre. She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrew’s. Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.

The U.S. fought a war with England to break from a king who put himself above the law. Now, England is arresting a former prince for breaking the law while the U.S. has literally put its president above it.

If I'm this amused at some elite from a totally different country than mine facing any sorts of consequences I cannot imagine how happy I'm going to be one day when our own elites experience either legal or mortal comeuppance.

A Springfield family is continuing their search for Kendo, a 1-year-old Siberian husky who has been missing since Feb. 5.

A lot of places are about to be bombed in a country far away and a good many people killed because Donald Trump cannot make anyone forget or ignore the accusations of what he did with young girls. That is now the foreign policy of the United States.

Any press availability about this should just be one question after another about "isn't this just an obvious effort at diversion?"

For a low price you can hang out with me for a day and join in my daily activities. Watch as I wake up (for real this time) around 2pm! Investigate the weird bird that I think I heard outside! Follow me to the mailbox for nothing! Share a bag of deluxe mixed nuts! 2pm-7:30pm

Libraries are among the few public institutions that represent the kind of world we want to live in. They must be fought for.

Countries that do not use Fritos as currency could be "left behind," says Frito-Lay CEO Ken Biddleman

When I talked to Larry several years ago about his legendary 60-point game against the Hawks, he cited this game as one where he played even better.

On this date in 1985, Larry Bird came within one steal of the NBA’s only second (at the time) quadruple-double. In three quarters! And in a blowout of the Jazz, declined to come back in for the fourth. “I already did enough damage.”

Burnout 3 is underrated as one of the very, very best games of all time because you can show Burnout 3 footage to people two decades later and their reaction will still be "hell yeah, this rules. I wanna play this right now."

In my humble opinion, if we want to push back on the current political culture of trampling on the very concept of civic virtue, we're just gonna have to live with some people tying those virtues to their faith. It's okay to talk about why a belief in Jesus makes you want to be a good person IMO

Wait until they test the toilet seats.

Oh no, how will he ever get another empty hairdo in a suit to replace her?

I am 100 percent in the bag for The Jungle Book. Easily my favorite Disney movie ever. The music is so great on its own.

One of the lessons I hope people take away from Jesse Jackson’s life and the outpouring of remembrances small and large is that progress is made and measured in every act and utterance against oppression and not measured solely in legislative or electoral victories.

I don’t wish harm or death on anyone… Usually

His alleged mistress left her precious heated blanket on the other plane, so Corey Lewandowski demanded the pilot turn the plane around to go get it. When he refused, Lewandowski -- who has zero authority to fire anyone at any time -- tried to fire the pilot IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLIGHT.
