'The January 6 people and the campus [protesters] are the same. Their views are slightly different, but their behaviors are the same.' - David Frum (watch our FULL conversation here youtube.com/watch?v=0Ng-Ht…)

Great win over the New York Yankees last night! I love hearing the song at the end of victories at The Park! Go Baltimore Orioles

On today’s pod, I talk w/ David Frum about why Biden shouldn't debate Trump. We also discuss why Bill Barr should prefer Biden over Trump, the college protests, the Trump veepstakes (featuring J.D. Vance and Kristi Noem), RFK, Jr., & more! youtu.be/0Ng-Ht0MCUs?si…

Trump does not dismiss the possibility of political violence around the election:

“If we don’t win, you know, it depends.”

“It always depends on the fairness of the election.” time.com/6972021/donald…

I loved working for John Avlon and I loved this piece about his congressional campaign by Shawn McCreesh. John is a truly good person and a great American and we need more people like him in government. nymag.com/intelligencer/…

OPINION: 'If you want to understand why 46 percent of the American electorate are with Donald Trump—and why no amount of new information will sway them—look no further than these three amigos,' writes Matt Lewis

McConnell, Barr, & Sununu are representative of a portion of the GOP electorate. Along with the MAGA radicals, Trump’s coalition includes boring old white guys who read The Wall Street Journal & would vote for a GOP nominee if he shot someone on 5th Ave. thedailybeast.com/why-are-republ…

Curious about the The Reagan Caucus? I interviewed Thomas D. Howes about this new SuperPAC that hopes to restore the Republican Party by supporting principled conservative candidates. bernardgoldberg.com/p/interview-th…

Andy Ferguson is back w a review of Ed Zwick's Hollywood memoir, which begins: 'It’s a rare book that opens with the writer admitting he’s an asshole, and different readers will, of course, respond differently to this unique authorial strategy.' freebeacon.com/culture/all-ab…

As we (they) head into a four-game series with the Yankees, it has become clear the Orioles are a very good team with a lousy bullpen. Too many blown saves. Must be fixed, if 2024 is to be the year...

Jerry Seinfeld:

“This is the result of the extreme left, and PC crap, and people worrying so much about offending other people.”

'When you write a script and it goes into four or five different hands, committee, groups—'here's our thought about this joke'—well that's the end…

As unique, iconic & haunting a voice as has ever been this song enters your heart & brain simultaneously with its history, emotion, & sheer gravitas. Just try and stop it. RIP Dolores O'Riordan…

I was there In 68/69.

Romantic views of protest and rebellion were dangerous then and now. Protest must serve the end goal, nothing else. Strategy is imperative.

The result of 1968 was sending middle America into the arms of the right wing, the goal demolished From within.

Kristi Noem shot and KILLED her family dog and goat?!? Guy Denton and I discuss that—& more! youtu.be/PtE1Z1gawBk?si…

Donald Trump’s presidency has served as a wake-up call that our Constitution and our laws were not designed to handle an authoritarian. And Thursday's Supreme Court hearing on presidential immunity was yet another reminder of that fact. thedailybeast.com/can-trump-real…

TRIGGER WARNING: If you are an animal lover, do NOT watch this clip where I read from Martin Pengelly's excellent piece about Kristi Noem killing her family dog and goat.
(***Please note that I am laughing at the outrageousness of this situation, not at the animals!)
