Hitting me hard. In Vienna my grandmother hid my mother from Russian soldiers known for raping and worse during the occupation, after the Nazis did the same in WWII. My grandfather had been forced to flee to Poland because he refused to join the Nazi party. He walked back a skeleton after the war.

Sensible ideas.
I am supporting a bill to end lifetime active service on the Supreme Court, set 18-year terms, and create regular, fair appointments. We need to lower partisan warfare, restore trust, and modernize the Court.

Perfectly in character. The guy doesn't miss an opportunity to tell the world what he is—or at least wants to be. This reminds me of the currencies with Saddam's or Gaddafi's or Ceaușescu's likeness on them. We can melt these coins down after he's gone.
Way to tell us you're a racist, misogynistic, narcissistic pig!

Sending masked, armed ICE agents into shelters to intimidate families without judicial warrants is unconscionable and illegal. Under Sec. Noem, DHS is routinely and clearly violating the law.
She admitted it last week.

My latest months-long investigation: Inside the surge in ICE visits to NYC homeless shelters under the Trump administration.
Several incidents raise questions about whether city staff and federal agents are following the laws.

They announced the escalation of their investigation into Kelly for reminding service members of their duty to refuse illegal orders on the same day Hegseth illegally ordered subordinates to murder nine more unarmed people in boats.

The smallest of changes that will leave the MAGA GOP apoplectic.
One creates a statewide safety council to examine and help reduce the effects of gun violence. The other calls for tracking the cost of gun violence and adds funding to educate gun owners on safe storage.

The smallest of changes that will leave the MAGA GOP apoplectic.
Gov. Tim Walz on Tuesday signed two executive orders he said could help head off gun violence. Both are likely to face political pushback and possibly legal challenges.

Gaza’s Government Media Office reports Israel has broken terms of the U.S.-brokered ceasefire at least 738 times since it took effect on October 10, killing at least 386 Palestinians, while severely restricting shipments of food, shelter, medicine, fuel and other basic goods into Gaza.

Are those the four members we're seeing? It is the most preposterous name and unbelievable claim.
Investigators say the four suspects were members of a radical faction of a left-wing group called the Turtle Island Liberation Front.

My favorite tyrant joke: a man comes every day and peers at the front page of the newspaper without buying it.
The newspaper vendor says, "what are you looking for?"
"An obituary."
"Obituaries aren't on the front page."
"This one will be."

Regarding Reiner, I have known a lot of musicians and been in bands myself. I can’t overstate the importance of This Is Spinal Tap in adjusting the self-importance of musicians. Everyone knows the movie, everyone has identified Spinal Tap moments, everyone is humbler and funnier as a result.

"Hundreds of thousands have died, with the toll mounting every day, because of Putin’s historical distortions and his compromised desire for respect. He is dragging out negotiations and shifting the cost of war onto his own population."
