RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Who would’ve thought that Marge Schott, Nazi aficionado, would end up tied for worst Reds owner?

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

If Zohran Mamdani or Abdul El-Sayed had used the word “Shylock” as an insult, the ADL would be attacking them by name relentlessly. But Donald Trump used it, so we get a generic condemnation of the word without any specific reference to who actually used it, and with no assumption of intent.

Everybody went down with me... we thought it was coming down on top of us... two fireman lifted me up and started running with me"

I still call where the White Sox play either Sox Park or Comiskey. Good luck with this one! 

One more thing about the Obama Center: the people working there are very nice and comfortable in their surroundings. Young woman waiting to get people on the elevator was dancing and singing No Scrubs. You don’t get that at the Met!
