Zubimendi broken nose confirmed. He will wear a protective mask tonight if he plays. Remember, it was a freekick to Everton.

RFK Jr campaigning against “The Muslim Brotherhood”, which he probably didn’t even know existing until last week.

It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

Brad LaVigne is right - any new potential deal has to be better than the one we already have - as there is no excuse to give Trump a “win” before the midterm - unless Trump is so desperate to sign a worse deal for the U.S./ better deal for Canada @cbcnews.ca

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Love to see them already thinking along these lines, though I'm curious how this will play out against an administration that will walk right into a government shutdown before signing budget/appropriations bills it doesn't like

NEWS --> Dems are planning novel ways to wield power of the purse against Trump's corrupt prosecutions of critics like Ilhan Omar if they win House. Reps Pramila Jayapal and Jamie Raskin tell me a range of aggressive tactics will be deployed. Details in my new piece: newrepublic.com/article/2171...

newrepublic.comTrump’s Vile Prosecution of Ilhan Omar Is About to Run Into a WallIf they retake the House, Democrats will have plenty of ways to act against Trump’s corrupt prosecutions. Pramila Jayapal and Jamie Raskin say they’re going to use them.

I stand with the survivors of sexual assault. That shouldn’t be difficult or controversial to say. But apparently it is for the United States’ president and vice president.
