Booted up this morning after an overnight complete update (highly recommend) and think it’s now time to trade in our old McKinley. What should MapQuest get instead? I’m thinking a Denali.

One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it *should* be about 10%. The actual number is less than 1%. Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

Canada accounts for about 60% of U.S. crude oil imports. If Trump's tariffs end up applying to that oil, that would likely cause gas prices to rise in the U.S., Canada's ambassador warns.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

Talk about petty. This whole feud is stupid and needs to end. It's childish and diminishes both. Kendrick's new album shows he still has inconsequential beefs. pitchfork.com/news/drake-a...

This Cowboys-Redskins game is Drunk!! 4 touchdowns in 3 minutes! 34-26! Cowboys almost did the most Cowboys thing ever allowing 87 yard TD to tie with seconds left, except for a then a missed extra point! And Cowboys TD after Washington onside kick. Crazy.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his anti-vax fakery was tied to a deadly measles outbreak in Samoa. And he lied about it. As head of HHS, he could do much worse here. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
