If she had addressed this during the election then it would have only been damning for Biden, but complaining about it now is damning for both of them!

A man of the people. Having dynamic pricing is so slimy.
New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has called for FIFA to end dynamic ticket pricing at the World Cup, place a cap on resale prices, and make 15% of tickets available to local residents at a discounted rate through a "Game Over Greed" initiative.

Went to the Columbia University bookstore—these are some of the books students are reading this semester. A bookstore employee told me the Qur'an is required reading for all freshman.

what was he supposed to do, not send a perverted birthday card to his pervert best friend?
WSJ: Lawyers for Jeffrey Epstein’s estate have given Congress a copy of the birthday book put together for the financier’s 50th birthday, which includes a letter with Trump’s signature that he has said doesn’t exist.

I wrote about the message that Democrats who refuse to back Mamdani are sending to their party—and to America’s greatest city
newrepublic.com
By declining to endorse their party’s nominee for New York mayor, leaders like Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries aren’t just undercutting a rising star. They’re throwing the city to Trump’s wolves.

For @NewYorker I wrote about the censorship of trans art. I spoke to many of my favorite artists from Puppies Puppies to Creighton Baxter, thought about strategic opacity, Amy Sherald, and whether or not we have had great trans artists. https://t.co/iTvFt0KuDe

Politics and aesthetics have an uneasy alliance. Too often, trans expression is on the losing end.

Trump take tennis
Never seen anything like this at a tennis event. This is the queue to get into Arthur Ashe after security was ramped up for president Trump’s visit. The match is due to start in 22 minutes, already a half-hour delay

GOP: Now it’s the Department of WAR! And by war we mean war on American citizens! Don’t like it? Too bad because there might not be any more elections!! DEMS: Send us $5 to sign a card to “Draft Dodger Donnie” wishing him a happy “bone spurs anniversary” 🤣

I think the bigger issue here is that he posted an image of himself napalming Chicago
Take off that Cavalry hat, you draft dodger. You didn’t earn the right to wear it. Stolen valor at its worst.

looking back at what I wrote after the last time the USMNT beat a top 25 FIFA team (in 2022) and... lol https://t.co/63uG6F2QgA

I think that victory over Iran is going to be the high water mark of US men’s soccer until at least 2040, when President for Life Barron Trump retools the program in an attempt to distract the public from the water wars
🇺🇸 USMNT has now lost five straight games vs FIFA top 25 teams by a combined 11-1. 🇺🇸 U.S. is winless in seven straight such games, getting outscored 17-3. 🇺🇸 Excluding Mexico, the last U.S. win vs a FIFA top 25 team was over Iran at the 2022 World Cup.
