@JetBlue ofc you didn't answer the question. how would it ever be on time if the inbound flight arrives after it's scheduled? anyway, cancelled the trip. flight now delayed 2 hrs. one small snow event leads to 2+ days of chaos?

I told him how honored I felt to receive his call, on behalf of thousands of people here who worked to elect him—and then never stopped organizing. "God bless ya," he said, 100% himself. What an extraordinary human being he is. Let's do him proud. Let's win tomorrow.

Before Walz took the stage in Milwaukee tonight, I got a call from a number unlike any I'd ever seen. It ended with four zeroes. I picked it up. It was Joe Biden. 🧵

@JamesFallows only noted at the end, when they do "what else to know today" and didn't actually link it to the argument presented up top. I have found the Daily's political coverage to be some of the most emblematic of the NYT "lens" - sad bc so much of Daily is excellent

@joshtpm to be fair, it would be fine with some (many?) of Trump/Vance's supporters.

they live inside addled memories of bygone days when they and people like them were in charge they try to prop those memories up in the present with smears and fantasies and grievances they can delude weak minds, and rally greedy ones but they're not a majority

סליחה, כרמלי. סליחה שלא עצרנו כשעוד היה אפשר. סליחה שנתנו להם להרוג אותך. הלוואי שראית ושמעת אותנו. הלוואי שלמרות שראית בעיניים את הרצח הנורא של אמא כנרת, גילית שאבא אשל ואחייך אלון ואור, הגיסה שלך ירדן והאחיינית שלך גפן, שרדו. הלוואי שראית איך החברות שלך נאבקו כדי שתחזרי בחיים. הלוואי שלא שמעת את ראש הממשלה אומר שציר פילדלפי חשוב יותר מהחיים שלך ושל שאר החטופים. אני יכול רק לדמיין בכמה זעם זה מילא אותך. הלוואי שלזכרך, לזכר לוחמת הצדק שהיית, לזכר החיים שעוד היית צריכה לחיות ונגזלו ממך בידי מי שחטף אותך ובידי ממשלה שהחליטה שאפשר לוותר עלייך, הלוואי שלזכרך רבבות יצאו להפגין הערב, בדיוק כפי שאת היית עושה. הלוואי שלזכרך כל החטופות והחטופים שעדיין אפשר להציל יחזרו בעסקה. סליחה, כרמלי. סליחה שלא עשיתי מספיק. אני מבטיח לך: לזכרך, אנחנו נחזיר את כולם.

It's actually not the purpose of the convention. It is to win. Uncommitted voters are undermining that effort and the DNC is correct to reserve the podium for Harris delegates. Again, though, there are Harris delegates who will reflect the majority American viewpoint about the impact of the war; the DNC is for a ceasefire for that reason, after all.
PBS News@NewsHour

WATCH: @RepJayapal says a member of the "uncommitted" movement should have been given a speaking slot at the Democratic National Convention. "At the end of the day, this is about everyone being seen and heard," she tells @IAmAmnaNawaz.

Donald Trump's former White House press secretary, Stephanie Grisham, speaks at the DNC and says she will vote for Kamala Harris. "I saw him when the cameras were off," she says about Trump. "Behind closed doors, Trump mocks his supporters. He calls them 'basement dwellers.' ...He has no empathy, no morals and no fidelity to the truth."

Trump consistently dodged service, mocking our military and POWs. He has no right to speak on stolen valor or veterans, period.

Here is how @nytimes reported Trump tariffs in 2018 and Biden tariffs today. All 3 top stories in the NYT app this morning are negative Biden pieces on a week in which the stock market hit records amid promising inflation numbers.

Alito, our favorite woke warrior, brings up the Japanese internment in Korematsu... under the government's theory, couldn't FDR be criminally prosecuted? After all, Biddle and J Edgar Hoover advised against it and said there was no national security threat.
