@MichaelLaRosaDC look we all understand that you don't like anita, ron, steve, mike, annie, etc but you don't need to use every story on the trump wh to bash the biden inner circle

Oof. I would think twice about that. This is another one of those areas — much like the use of Signal — where Democrats should be careful about throwing rocks from inside our glass houses. The use of Signal was used widely and highly encouraged in the Biden WH. I doubt this is a “process” debate Democrats should welcome or wish objective arbiters examine too closely. As another example, in the Biden White House we could all (and did) access and use Gmail on our desktops. From what I’ve heard anecdotally, this White House staff, cannot.

If @jonfavs wants the 2024 autopsy so bad invite me and I'll tell him what went wrong. Here's a preview 1. Certain Democrats and podcasters pushed out a successful first-term president with 100 days left before that election.

@EmmaYourFriend omg

Congrats to everyone running the Boston Marathon today but especially my friend Morgan who is currently doing it while listening to the Say Nothing audiobook. This is our fucking city

@BryanDFischer denver was doubled in shots both frozen four games and won both

Denver, the only thing that seems to be able to stop the B1G. What a run by the Pioneers to capture the Frozen Four and NCAA title.

@GoodmanHoops are you billy d's agent?

Billy Donovan wanted to wait until end of season to make a decision on North Carolina and one source close to Donovan felt as though he might have taken it. But source said that new North Carolina AD Steve Newmark panicked after Tommy Lloyd and Dusty May spurned the Tar Heels.

@JonathanCohn 1 and 2 - always and forever

A protest/rally can serve any of the following purposes: (1) community building (2) organizing (3) message amplification (4) disruption Some serve all four, some only one, many a mix. What’s important is that it is intentional.

@NicoleAuerbach with illinois- plenty of reasons

The two teams that advanced to the Final Four today hadn’t made it since 2001 (Arizona) and 2005 (Illinois). How can you not be happy for these fan bases?

@ArjSingh92 ARJUN

Dang thought this was Sandlot 2 at first based on the pic

@JohnAnthonyCO @stephanie_murr wow okay

Settle our newsroom debate. When you can’t go to work because you’re sick, you:

End of era. Without the MA playbook I wouldn’t get to call @stephanie_murr my friend. Big time congrats to @LaurenDezenski + @stephanie_murr + @lisakashinsky and @kellygarrity3 on a great run

Jill stein's campaign manager giving the game away here, they wanted Trump to win

@DanWolken it just means more

This is why people run for office: The chance to really make a difference.

@steveschale (the best activists here are the ones who do dvc every year in places like NH, PA, etc)

Restating my view that Dems need a program to fly activists who live in blue safe spaces to immerse for a few weeks in places like PA, NC, and GA, including forced interactions with actual voters who decide actual elections.

@RotoPat Back-to-back titles plus Edwin Diaz and Kyle Tucker. Sweet sport. What a sweet sport lol

But $60 million per year for Kyle Tucker is .......................... aggressive

The Dodgers' lineup is sort of high key getting old. It was ALMOST starting to matter last season, but in the end it didn't. It's going to soon, so sadly this isn't just a luxury move for them

me listing all my favorite places in Massachusetts

2025 Indiana > 2001 Miami. Enough said

@TheAndyKatz @SetonHallMBB @BluejayMBB @BIGEASTMBB some major home cooking tbh

What a win for @SetonHallMBB. Down 16 and come back to beat @BluejayMBB 56-54 in Newark to tie the surging Bluejays at 3-1 in the @BIGEASTMBB.

@PeteFiutak all these teams losing with the bye pretty much assures the playoff is going to 16 teams, yes?

1) Happy New Year 2) As I'm going through hot takes, one narrative has to go away ... 3) No, Ohio State didn't lose because of the time off. It didn't help, but that's not fair to Miami. The Canes played better, were more physical, and when they had to, they pounded away to win
