This is the part where they try to illegitimise the Nobel peace prize committee for past choices (eg "they clearly don't know what they're doing anyway...").

As a lifelong #Yankees fan and #Mets observer I would like to say that it was completely predictable that signing Judge and Soto to fat contracts wasn't going to bring a championship. Clutch players has always been the way to get there. The goal apparently is focused on brand and not winning.

Yes. JD is lying but his lies are hitting home with their base because they have them thinking that "undocumented immigrants" are the reason for all the bad that is going on in the country.

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

I don’t know the answer to this question, but FVVVCK do I feel it.
I suppose the short answer is:

We hold on as we figure out our roles in The Resistance.

We support each other in any way we can.

We grasp the glimmers of hope & resilience where we find them.

We bear witness.

While it will be difficult for some to comprehend, one must be able to make a distinction between the Israel government and Jewish people. Pass it along.

WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.
