How to talk to your drunk uncle about QAnon this Thanksgiving.
I grew up in a small Kansas town, and a second hand store had a DJ copy of “The Harder They Come.” I bought it out of curiosity. The gamble was more than worth it. I’m sure my parents tired of me play it repeatedly. I wanted it played at my funeral. Thanks, Jimmy Cliff. I wish I could’ve told you.

I’m sorry to hear that Udo Kier is gone. He usually played creepy roles like the one he had in “Blade.” I believed him when he boasted, “I vas BORN a vampire!”
That said, he was believable as an amiable character in “Suspiria.” RIP

They could have hired someone who didn’t have more baggage than LaGuardia. Her issues were already part of the public record. Wired, for example, is loaded with insanely talented folks who already live on the west coast.

NEW: Sean Duffy frequently calls safety his “top priority” as transportation secretary. But I spent months wading through regulatory notices and found something far different: that USDOT has been delaying, weakening and killing dozens of safety rules, many opposed by the transportation industry.🧵

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.
