- Mahan wants to be reasonable, but he can't break free of the Dem machine. - Hilton wants to cut everybody's taxes, but he never mentions how things will get paid for without that revenue. All dream, no scheme. - Eight is too many candidates for a 90-minute debate. 2 / 2

Anyway, a few thoughts on last night's debate: - The Dems seem more interested in running against Pres. Trump than anything else. - Bianco and Hilton need to work on not interrupting people. - Thurmond and Villaraigosa seem better than Steyer and Porter. 1 / 2

@ZBerm There's a pretty obvious trade they can make in early June. Let's see what draft picks they have after that.

Re: 2027 draft picks... As it stands now, the Eagles don't have picks in the third round and sixth round. They have two picks in the seventh round. They're expected to get a compensatory pick in Round 3 for Jaelan Phillips leaving. They could also trade veterans for more picks. But they don't have the same cupboard of picks they had last year to make August trades (unless those deals are pick swaps).

Mitch McConnell, who leads the Senate Defense spending panel and was at this meeting, now writes in the Washington Post: "Ukraine aid we passed months ago is now collecting dust at the Pentagon. When Senate appropriators have sought an explanation from the department’s policy shop, led by Undersecretary Elbridge Colby, they’ve been stonewalled. Our colleagues on armed services have also expressed growing frustration with the Defense Department’s inability to communicate."

New: In a meeting lawmakers yesterday evening, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said he didn't know why $400 million in previously appropriated funds for Ukraine hadn't been released yet. "I guess I'll look into it," said Hegseth, according to Betty McCollum, top Democrat on the House Defense Appropriations Subcommittee. "That's not an answer to the Congress," said McCollum.

So Justice Kagan is reported in Molly Hemingway's new book on Justice Alito as having urged liberal members of the Court to slow-walk their dissents in the Dobbs case for months after Justice Alito had finished his majority decision, presumably with the "hope" that the composition of the Court would change and the 5-4 outcome striking down Roe would turn into a 4-4 deadlock that left the lower court's decision in place - affirming Roe. NOW, it is clear that it was Justice Kagan -- and not Justices Jackson and Sotomayor -- who has held up her dissent in the Louisiana redistricting case, as she has written the only dissent -- with the whispered-about motivation being to push the decision back far enough into the calendar back such that some states don't have time to engage in redistricting before the Nov. elections -- redistricting that might eliminate minority-majority districts and cost Democrats seats. If both these two anecdotal accounts about Kagan gain traction, it will forever stain her legacy on SCOTUS.

Also go back and find the Uber driver that took you from the airport to tip him more too. and the flight crew, fellow passengers, your boss that let you take off of work, oh and hey why not your kindergarten teacher for teaching you that 3 cherries in a row is a pattern

If you hit a $10 million slot jackpot in Vegas you should tip the people who provided good service and made the trip fun — cocktail servers, hotel staff, slot attendants, floor staff, dealers if you played tables. Anything between $30,000 and $300K, spread around, is fine.

@mysteriouskat Blue. The guilt over having offed 49.9% of the world's population would be too much. Also, my life isn't that great.

@jasonc_nc Why are you pushing whole milk when there's nonfat and low-fat, and whatever skim is?

Jason, Coffee Shop Oligarch
Hi. Restaurant and coffee shop owner here. Almond milk runs 2.2x the cost of whole milk. Oat milk is 2.4x, macadamia is 4x and soy is ~2x. We charge more because it costs us more, not because all of us are engaged in a rightwing plot against people who prefer alternatives.
Daniel Aldana Cohen@aldatweets

It’s just incredibly rightwing and wrong. And while we’re at it, oat milk tastes good. But compared to soy, its such a scam.

Did you know between 1957 and 1976, there was a regular bus service between London and Calcutta, India.The 32,000km, 50 day, 2-way bus route is the longest in the world. The bus had sleeping bunks and even a kitchen! For just £145, you get to travel with food & accomodation. The bus would stop at attractions and for shopping in Vienna, Istanbul & Iran The bus ride took passengers from England to Belgium, West Germany, Austria, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Northern India.
