Iowa News Now: Rob Sand speaks Norwegian to reporter from Norway.
Save your equivocations, @MarkLazerus. The rest of us are tired of the rocks and the firebombing.
I'm an American Jew.
Opposing the Israeli government doesn't mean you hate Jews, especially when that government is abandoning Jewish values.
Just like opposing the U.S. government doesn't mean you hate America, especially when that government is abandoning American values.
Yes, there's a real concern that anti-Israel sentiment can very quickly turn into antisemitic sentiment. And we need to be vigilant. But that doesn't mean blind loyalty and purity tests and locking down free speech.
Jews are not monolithic; no people is. But we're a people that embrace nuance and erudition and free speech and thoughtful, passionate, learned, open debate. And we need that more than ever these days.
California has six universities (three public, three private) in the top 30 nationally; Washington has ZERO.
Our competitive advantage is far more fragile, traditionally been based on low power costs and no state income tax. Both have been ceded.
Fascinating side-by-side between Seattle and SF.
Seattle can be cool. But it's not the same with economic density or climate. Politics in both cities can be idiotic. But SF has turned a massive corner while Seattle is focused on handing out drug needles, excessive taxation that the base can't afford, and letting killers run free.
people make light of this but in the background of this series the Johnsonville Brats v. Usinger's Sausage war has reached a fever pitch not seen since the Western Front in 1916
"Macklemore-endorsed" means exactly what you think it means
Compelling new entry into the pantheon of ACLU identity crisis pieces — the peak of which is the incoming ACLU Indiana executive director, who is a community activist, prison abolitionist, and former Macklemore-endorsed mayoral candidate from Seattle, allegedly saying the organization should not have taken its famous stand of defending neo-Nazis' free speech and should have instead offered "other advocacy tools"
Sure Norilsk is a closed city, but think of what it offers (via TripAdvisor)
•ВЗабой (Vzaboy): A high-rated local pub, bar, and café.
•
•13 Правил (13 Pravil): A specialized beer bar.
•
•New Port Bar: Another local drinking establishment.
This is like the Straight Talk Express but for downtown vacancy and the fentanyl crisis.
Imagine if all the far-left mayors took a delegation trip to SF to learn from Daniel Lurie how to actually tackle public safety and rebuild community trust. They’d be upset to learn they can’t just hand out needles and call it a solution! But I’m confident a little exposure to actual governance would do them some good.
Jon Scholes is a business leader. He knows what needs to be done to clean up the city (physically, and from a personnel standpoint). He didn't need to go to SF or anywhere else to learn it, and he isn't speaking for the city in this quote, he is speaking TO the city.
This might be immaterial in the face of his apologism for terror, but the Scott Brown Carhartt really isn't working for Abdul
Holy moly @NBCNews decided to actually do some journalism! This is a must watch.
NBC: Your sister bragged about your mom’s ties to a terrorist organization
Abdul: Well I grew up in Michigan 🥴
One of my favorites on one of my favorites
I met @kmele and @mcmoynihan on separate CNN roundtables and immediately wanted to talk to them more. So it was great to sit down for a longer, more substantive conversation on @wethefifth about the midterms, the Democratic Party, and just about every crazy headline of the moment.

"Get the good paper plates" hits like moljinar
A Guardians-Brewers World Series would be the matchup Midwest baseball fans have been arguing into existence at family reunions for decades.
Everyone’s drinking. Three aunts will bring competing salads without actual veggies. Someone’s uncle will provide a route between Cleveland and Milwaukee that “saves you 20 minutes” and takes nine hours. And, yes, there will be little smokies in a crockpot older than the starting pitchers.
We’ve waited our whole lives for this. Get the good paper plates.
I’m begging you, baseball God’s.

Culver's isn't a financial institution, it's a money factory.
Four Big Ten basketball programs have jersey patch sponsors. Of those, everyone but the #Badgers (who are partnered with Culver's and UW Health) have patches representing financial institutions.
Depending on how you value Scoopie Tokens, of course.
ALT Wisconsin sponsored by UW health for women's teams and Culver's for men's teams
ALT Ohio State chase bank sponsor patch
ALT Michigan state jersey patch from Michigan State University Federal Credit Union
ALT Illinois jersey patch is Busey bank
Madison surrounded by evidence of a good party and having left everything on the field, where it belongs.

My life could have been completely different. My father was born in northern Nigeria, where Boko Haram has kidnapped girls and young women and persecuted people for their faith. By the grace of God, I was born elsewhere and did not have to live with that terror. I do not take that for granted.
A lot of you minimize Hamas’s terrorism, then criticize me for refusing to do the same. I am one generation removed from an entirely different life impacted by a terrorist org. That shapes how I see the people whose lives these terrorists destroy. I can see myself in them.
