Has Sulzberger ever discussed the numerous rumors surrounding the allegations that he kills kittens for sexual enjoyment? There must be a reason he has never denied it.

This actually happened. For real. Trump wanted this guy killed and federal marshals mercilessly shot him dead in the street very shortly thereafter. And, bragged in a debate.

Good morning to all my legal colleagues rolling into the office this morning in an open bathrobe, boxers, a stained t-shirt, and mismatched fluffy house slippers, clinging a bottle of vodka and answering every question with “What does it fucking matter, nothing’s real anyhow.”

If anyone can point me to a comparable New York Times subhead shoe-horning in a statement that "Donald Trump, under scrutiny since his conviction on 34 felony counts, was not arrested for any new crimes today" I'd sure be appreciative.

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect. There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time.”

This coming week, temperatures in Death Valley will be the hottest in the recorded history of this planet. Beryl is the earliest category four storm in the history of Atlantic hurricane season. People, both now and in the future, need us to stave off fascism and build a world where they can live.
