I think you could give the Russian invasion of Ukraine to Obama. That was when they invaded and annexed Crimean Peninsula.

But fascinating stuff. Honestly not as bad as I would have expected.

Thought the point was throwing a tantrum b/c millions are going hungry (true); as such, the Times shouldn’t report on an annual Halloween party which raises money for… UNICEF. Why not just get rid of the arts and culture section entirely so you feel better?

The Times should only publish stories that you’re interested in, forget the ret of us.

Have you considered not reading and commenting on it?

Weren’t you the one who said if you weren’t from Maine, you didn’t want to hear anyone’s opinions on Maine?

Whenever Yascha was on Beg to Differ, I listened even more intently. Miss that pod! Friday evening ritual included an evening cocktail listening to you, Bill, Linda, and Damon. Was great seeing Bill on the Mona Charen Show discussing his new book. Will definitely listen to this.

Hamilton should be a 2 part for Bulwark movie club. Especially after #NoKings. Revisit it.

🙄 No, he doesn’t. Unless the Speaker authorizes him to. The minority leader statutorily or constitutionally can not swear members in. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Bad take. 🤦🏾‍♀️

He attended my boarding school in Switzerland years before I was a student but my freshman year yearbook was devoted to him.

May ‘23. 1st time back on Metro in years. Fare jumpers everywhere. Asked station manager why she wasn’t stopping them. Said she’d wait 2 hrs for MTPD to arrive & they never show up to court anyway & she wasn’t willing to die over a $3 fare. I’ve got grandbabies, she said. I thought that made sense.

Substantive, sobering conversation on the Sunday show with @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social. Especially enjoyed the anecdotes about your two former profs – they’d be proud of you. Your latest will be my bedtime reading.

Well this is just a lie and this type of post belongs on Twitter. I can pull up 30 sitting republicans senators who condemned the murder in 2 minutes.

It’s a dark mark, but like Graham, he’s immune to feeling shame. Unlike Graham, whose only reward is proximity to power on the golf course, Rubio gets an official plane and a portrait in the Truman building. And I think that’s enough for him. It will have all been worth it.

For what it's worth, Poland has the largest European army in NATO.

Yeah, but libertarians are also like: if you don’t care, then I don’t care that your kid died from smallpox either. Glad you had the choice and you’re dealing with the consequences of your own tragic decisions on your own.

The problem being that a record number of young people bothered to vote in the NY mayoral primary? You know - that once reliable group that establishment Dems seem hellbent on purging. Okay 🙄.

To see black ICE officers participating in this thuggery kills me. Their ancestors are weeping.

I’m sure they had so much pride in that house and that it looked like a palace to you as a little one and still does 🥰
