It is a moving ceremony, for sure. Although I was not asked that question at my interview. I clearly remember the questions, most of which to my delight were about voting rights amendments!

Riley Greene didn't even make the top 20 among AL outfielders in All-Star balloting, but he continues to make a case for a ticket to Midsummer Classic. He fell a double shy of a cycle Wednesday, including a tape-measure home run in a win at Minnesota.

Today’s Nydalen snails. And, if you’re in the UK, please #VOTE. Don’t stay at home because you think it’s a foregone conclusion: they won’t be staying at home I assure you. I voted by post. Voted for change.

Right - like prior to the debate all the pundits were trying to tell us how unimportant debates are, they never move the needle, there are hardly any undecideds anyway ….

When we think of July 4th we think of fireworks. Most people don’t think about how those fireworks affect animals. Reach out to neighbors ahead of the 4th and have a conversation about the fireworks they’ll be setting off and just how frightening the fireworks are to animals.

If we’re talking political psychology, I think the psychology of the populace is more interesting and important than the psychology of pundits.

Not just commentators. Remember, US presidential politics is a spectator sport the world over (my Canadian & Dutch relatives have been texting me nonstop since the debate). Too many folks want the frisson that comes with this particular game of what-if

Biden's age is just a stand-in for whatever criticism would be lobbed against another Dem. Making them younger would only shift the issue. I was just thinking earlier today how Dems ran a veteran in 2004 while war was the main issue, and the GOP successfully smeared him *for winning war medals*.

The country of the Alitos' and the Heritage Foundation's dreams is an imaginary past idyll that never existed, and they're convinced that they have to destroy much of what currently exists in order to return to that imaginary place. Calling that "conservative" does violence to the English language.

Just being honest here, I really do miss some parts of Twitter (sorry, The Bad Place ™️), so I check In occasionally. If you can, go check in on what the geniuses of Black Twitter are doing with “Black Jobs” 😂😂😂

We already live in a media environment in which 49% of Americans think unemployment is at a 50-year high and more than half believe the economy is shrinking and that we're in a recession. Now imagine a world in which there's no reliable data to contest that? www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
