Walz: You have a situation where the Secretary of Health basically said it and was speaking with the language of eugenics, that some people just don't matter. People like Deanna's son or my son or those of you listening tonight. So look, this is a fight we must win.

AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

Anyone Trump-aligned or Trump-adjacent is toxic to the rest of the world. We are the only country with enough people that think the malignant narcissist, criminal, and moronic two-bit con man should be in charge. It’s the same reason why televangelists have always thrived here.

They also haven’t had the misfortune of having Upstate NY sheet pizza. It’s like if school cafeteria pizza had more inventive toppings. Seriously the sheet pizzas are the culinary equivalent of putting lipstick on a pig.

We can have empathy, or not, for our parents' limited ability, support, or interest in raising us -- but still acknowledge how their lack of investment or skill harmed us. The fact that they weren't prepared for or up to the task of raising you wasn't about you or your fault.

I still think Beasley got housed for the award. The heavy lifting that Beasley had to do for the Pistons was bigger than the load Pritchard had for the Celtics.

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.

This is honestly an ownership issue for the Pelicans as if you also look at the Saints as well. The Bensons have owned the Saints since 1985 and if you take out the Sean Payton years they have only had 6 winning seasons.
