We're driving away the best of us: people willing to risk everything to start anew, work hard, and build something in the US.

I said "selling." I meant giving away weapons for free, and footing the bill for Israel’s military with our tax dollars.

The crimes in Gaza are of the kind that have historically prompted calls for military intervention from liberals — yet the debate in Washington hasn’t even shifted past whether we should keep selling Israel more weapons.

Can someone explain to me why we can't make organ donations opt-out rather than opt-in at the DMV instead? Are there legal reasons around problems with "presumed consent" or is it all cultural/political?

Malik Beasley is no longer under FBI investigation but he just has his name smeared for months and lost out on millions of dollars. Sports fans became a little more cynical and our culture became a little more degraded. This is the world Adam Silver helped create.

Western civilization says it's built on respect for life, universal norms, the rule of law. Israel’s conduct in Gaza shreds each of these — it's the antithesis of civilization. No community of nations serious about Enlightenment values could welcome a genocidal state.
The preservation of Western civilization is a bread-and-butter issue.

I refuse to listen to my podcast appearances, but I trust the @today_explained producers were kind to me. We talked about socialism, Trump's tariffs, and Zohran.

Though, in fairness, The Free Press trying a $250 million valuation with only 155,000 paid subscribers might have been market distorting!.
