I’m perplexed that this guy is the Great White Hope of the Democratic Party. He absolutely feels stale and dated - I really don’t think Dems want another ‘Obama’ much less a Jewish one. The only demographic I see him appealing too is middle aged ‘moderates’ who are delusional about what the Democratic Party actually stands for in 2026.

Pray for anyone attending a fall wedding today. 🙏

I watched Russell Brand @rustyrockets on the @jimmyfallon show the other night—what the hell do people see in Russell—a major loser!

There are a lot of comparisons between Saturday’s “big” Miami/Notre Dame game with the iconic 1988 version of he rivalry, but any objective analysis of the two games shows just how much better the sport was in 1988… -Then, the loser was likely eliminated from national championship contention, while the winner ended up winning it all. Now, neither team will be eliminated with a loss, and one of them can easily lose and not have it impact their national title hopes. -Then, the game was played a storied grass field. Now, ND plays in astroturf so they can host concerts. -Then, the players chose their school based on something about the school/team/coach/tradition/history/location. Now, they do so based on the highest bidder. -Then, ND classic helmets didn’t have the “golden dome” disrupted by safety spaces on the surface. Now, the players barely wear padding and often wear literal shorts. -Then, you had virtual certitude (especially at ND) that your players were playing at least 3 years, and very likely 4. Now, players are highly unlikely to play 4 years at the same school, and can/do easily leave after only 1. -Then, at least several members (and definitely the two team’s very famous coaches) of each team were household names to even casual football fans. Now, that’s not the case. -Then, there was almost a fight before the game and Lou Holtz told his team in the locker room to “Save Jimmy Johnson’s ass for me!” Now, if anything remotely that interesting happens (it won’t) there would be firings. -Then, the game was broadcast by Brent Musburger, an iconic voice who was synonymous with big games and creating real drama. Now, most of the audience won’t even be able to tell who the announcer is by the sound of his voice. -Then, the opening of the broadcast was epic (below). Now, they don’t even try to do dramatic opens like this one because we are in the “post-romance” era of “college” football.

Q: "How do you say 'London' in Farsi?" A: "Diego Garcia." ---- Forget this joke at your peril. You were never being anti-war. You just weren't thinking about this hard-headedly enough. Complain all you like about 'Forever Wars' or show off being 'Anti-War'. Fine. But deep down, you hopefully know that there was never an "anti-war" option on the table.

Remember when the left eviscerated Mike Pence for choosing to not dine alone with another woman, other than his wife? 🤨 They acted like he was some kind of weird religious freak for his personal convictions on the matter. But they are silent about the religious subservience of Abdul’s wife. Hypocrites.
