And… right on schedule the Munich analogy is back. Khameini is the new Hitler we can’t allow ourselves to appease, just like Saddam Hussein, Milosevic, Noriega (remember him?), Ho Chi Minh, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.

💥#Breaking At least three Palestinians are dead, apparently killed by IDF fire, after Jewish settlers rampaged through West Bank town of Kafr Malik. These acts are fomented by government ministers. IDF says five settlers were arrested and turned over to police.

This is absurd. NYT Politics needs to find a better way to convey to readers what it knows to be true: These "findings" are not actual "findings" in any sense that most people would understand the word. The casual reader comes away with zero sense of the bad faith at play here.

Really love getting urgent texts from the Philippines threatening the suspension of a driver’s license and auto registration in a state I haven’t lived in for 15 years…

The right gave up on the “African American Zohran” story days ago, realizing that no one cares. The only people keeping it alive are lefties angry at the NYT.
