This is what we call a cracker-baiting Yale POS.

Welcome to California, Jimmy Don Vance.

West Coast here, feeling so sad about the cold-blooded ‘divide and conquer’ types attacking Mamdani. People of every color and faith who support him are an inspiration, especially Jewish New Yorkers resisting the manipulation. If you can, read his dad’s book Good Muslim/Bad Muslim.

That Frazier/Monroe backcourt… Clyde was at his peak and was an icon; Earl was maybe a year or two past his, but a legend. Did The Pearl have any open court 360 spins in this one? Great times for 12-year-old me.

Next step: merge with the Times. The Washington Times.

They’re all computer.

Sometimes I wonder if the ‘diaspora’ of corporate yuppies who moved to (now) blue cities in red states for promotions and cheap housing regret it. Georgia is sorta purple, NC occasionally gets there, but TN? It’s at war with Memphis and Nashville. Are smoothies, pro sports and indie music enough?

Just watched him scream about Iraq in ‘16 at Jeb ‘… and we didn’t even keep it!’ He would prefer that Canada were the 52nd state!

Old sports pundit to young sports pundit: Being polarizing is the key to sports punditry, young man. If you can fake that, you’ve got it made.

There’s no limit to what he’ll talk about despite having no knowledge, is there? As much as I love sports, I’d prefer he spew nonsense with the dial set to 11 on sports than imposter syndrome himself into politics.

Quite a paragraph there NYT. Passive all the way. The real message: ‘It’s a tinderbox these days, I’d say. Oh, I did say! Pass the Beluga, will you, old boy? Ah, sunset in the Hamptons! Same as it ever was. No protests here, eh?’

Is there someplace I can put money on #2?

Look up the @#&$ numbers before you ask that @#&$ question, or give your paycheck to somebody who will work for it.

Why don’t they just change ‘The Atlantic’ to ‘The Hamptons’ and be done with it?

‘Win now’. Also, ‘better win now!’

JFC. Do they keep her in a locked room with no internet six days a week? It’s pronounced Quin-Uh-Pee-Ack. And you should read it even if you can’t pronounce it, ma’am. Read ‘em all. They all say the same thing.

‘Large’. Like, millions, you mean? Sure, ‘large’.

At this Martha’s Vineyard retreat for Disney, Paramount, Comcast, Time/Warner, NYT, and Amazon/Washpo, ‘rigorous’ still means how they vet female employees for hotness. But they know this: politics are based on suburban white male vibes, which were not affected by ‘No Kings’ day.
comment in response to post
‘Brace’ and ‘preparing’. Try ‘set’ and ‘anticipating’. One’s a hurricane; the other one’s an acknowledgment that the majority of Americans hate Trump. Those words are choices, NYT.

Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Perfectly. That’s why I love it so much.

‘Mortgage-level trucks’. Perfect. Bluesky gold!

Also, as a lawyer I don’t usually like open-ended questions to an adversarial witness, but Moran’s question was a brilliant Rorschach test of not just ignorance, but also whatever the opposite of patriotism is. You aced it, Don!
comment in response to post
Olidorks? Dorkigarchs? Throw all the front row guys from the inauguration and it still fits. Not a scrap of common sense or intellectual curiosity outside of what makes them money.

Pundit trolling gold sir.
comment in response to post
This points out the trouble with all social media, even Bluesky, which you have overcome with your insightful responses. It’s made for incomplete discussions causing knee-jerk chain reactions. And… THE NYT DID A GOOD ARTICLE ON CALIFORNIA!! Everybody not from here, read it!!

Thank you! Easily worth 1000 words, or 1000 seconds of endless B-roll of that one fire.

Germany should arrest Politico’s owner under its anti-fascism laws. Or ‘lean in’ as anti-fascists, as they say.
comment in response to post
In this 8th Avenue conference room, ICE is how you serve caviar in the Hamptons, with a mother of pearl spoon, of course. But they know this: Trump’s military invasion of LA will force the Dems to choose a position they will call ‘risky’, no matter which one it is.

An anthem we could use right now.

CBS: we don’t correct the disinformation, but we do a great job measuring the results. You’re welcome, America.

Mr. Miller grew up in Santa Monica, not far from Atherton, Beverly Hills, Lake Forest, Grosse Pointe, Scarsdale, and the Main Line.
comment in response to post
IN ENGLISH: A great American city, Los Angeles, which was once part of Mexico, is a place where citizens and immigrants live and work together. My ICE goons have invaded LA. I expect full obedience by all, or my Fox News Cabinet will punish you. Thank you for pretending this tweet was important.

Says… the Bezoshington Post? They wish! C’mon Cubes! Extremists here say ‘Dems are the Vichy French’. We can handle that. You know what the Nazi incels say over there. No comparison. Debating in real time is hard. Slinging propaganda is easy. Rather be with the debaters.
comment in response to post
Sounds good, Ken. Tap out and let Wikler in. Somebody who knows the difference between an oligarch and a Democrat, and knows how to beat one. We need a wartime consigliere.

Little buddy 😂. The Dartmouth Dandy! Or is that what we should call Jake Tapper ‘87?

Village People Construction Guy sounds ridiculous to me, yet NY guy takes him seriously. Yup, checks out. Also fun Wikipedia fact: VPCG worked for Grover Norquist. Obviously concerned with abundance… for Ivy Nepos like himself.

Thank you for your comment, Senator Schumer.

I’ve always felt for Sonics fans. Now my Oakland A’s are gone. It sucks beyond explanation. I get your Gus Williams posts. The memories can’t be stolen.

WTF NYC. I thought all the Archie Bunkers moved to Long Island. How is this guy still a thing? Signed, ‘Confused in CA’.
comment in response to post
That obsession affected his reasoning (and also his editor’s). ‘Universities’ create upward mobility. Check. ‘Elite institutions’ have not grown. Huh? Not the same, Ivy dude. The first has exploded in the last 50 years. So has the second, if you don’t limit it to… well, you know.

They call the Correspondents dinner the ‘nerd prom’ but the nerdiest wanna-be prom kings are the consultants. Here’s how much time we should listen to them: zero. It’s not sports, and you’re not Stephen A Smith or Skip Bayless. Get off my TV.

Cross out ‘behaving like’ and you’ve got it Nadler. Thanks for being ‘troubled’.

Hats off to Mr Jennings. Posted before I saw yours.

Don’t let Kate McKinnon see this.

Just think how many Wall Street geniuses gave ‘our’ money (401k, public pensions) to this guy after seeing him close up, because they thought there would be a ‘greater fool’ who’d spend even more on his stock. And just think how long that worked.

Worth way more than 1000 words. Thanks for what you do.
