Hoya '78; CWRU Law '81; Devils/Mets/AFC Richmond/Hoyas/Big Red hockey and rugby. Springsteen/Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. Still a cheerful skeptic.

Pretty amazing how much better Glass and Brown play when Gritsyuk is on their line. Problem is...Gritsyuk should probably be on the first or second line. Still, nice to see the third line dominating. #NJDevils

The threats reported this morning in several counties are a clear attempt to undermine our democratic system and intimidate New Jerseyans from going to the polls to exercise their right to vote. Let me be clear: there is no credible threat to New Jerseyans' safety at the polls.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.
12 days of work in 103 days.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

My daughter has lived in Florida for over a decade. She has voted in every election, but as a Jersey Girl in RedLand, she is always checking on things like her voter registration. She found that she & her husband were no longer registered and were told they had to re-register. CHECK if u live in FLA

I strongly object to the comparison many are making these days between Stephen Miller and Joseph Goebbels.
I think it's deeply misguided, and unfair, to compare them.
Goebbels was a far better propagandist, and didn't execute much policy.
Miller far more closely resembles Heinrich Himmler.

Lawrence: One of the examples you've put out is in Speaker Mike Johnson's Louisiana district, a 60 year old couple earning 82,000 a year. Their health care premiums will rise by almost $20,000 by 300% because of what their congressman is doing.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life.
The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.
