Here’s the @colbertlateshow interview with @jamestalarico - and eff u @CBS for caving and not airing it. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?si…

This week, I learned that I was uninvited to this year’s National Governors Association dinner — a decades-long annual tradition meant to bring governors from both parties together to build bonds and celebrate a shared service to our citizens with the President of the United States. My peers, both Democrats and Republicans, selected me to serve as the Vice Chair of the NGA, another reason why it’s hard not to see this decision as another example of blatant disrespect and a snub to the spirit of bipartisan federal-state partnership. As the nation’s only Black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight — whether that was the intent or not. What makes it especially confounding is that just weeks ago I was at the White House with a bipartisan group of governors, working with the administration on reforms to lower energy costs and strengthen grid reliability. We proved in that moment what’s possible when we stay focused on outcomes over politics. As Governor of Maryland and Vice Chair of the NGA, my approach will never change: I’m ready to work with the administration anywhere we can deliver results. Yet, I promised the people of my state I will work with anybody but will bow down to nobody. And I guess the President doesn’t like that.

I hate @Starbucks and its greedy-ass CEO Brian Niccol, so stop emailing me stuff I never signed up for.

@DouthatNYT @_alice_evans Here’s a deeper exploration: nytimes.com/2025/05/30/opi…

This week's episode of "Interesting Times" is a conversation with @_alice_evans about the romance recession and the fertility collapse: youtube.com/watch?v=3BBapH…

@DouthatNYT @_alice_evans Correlation does not equal causation. This interview has a o much guesswork, and little research into *why*. Just ask people! So many barriers in the US… cost, health, stress… if kids improved life, people would have them.

@HenryFjord @DouthatNYT @_alice_evans Could you cite a source for these benefits?

@DouthatNYT @_alice_evans The most actionable point Alice made was that, contra a prevailing feminist narrative, marriage benefits women not restrains. If you can get "the left" to know that, you'll make progress. Other solutions are farther outside the Overton window than "marriage is good actually".

.@T-Mobile lied again. They promoted free @netflix for life with their #55+ plan, but now they are charging me for it. Don’t fall for the @TMobile #scam.

Why are @nytimes and @washingtonpost ignoring this event? Kudos to @TeenVogue for covering: teenvogue.com/story/jewish-p…

The mainstream press is failing America – and people are understandably upset. ⁦@nytimes⁩ and ⁦@washingtonpost⁩ are you listening??? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Coincidence? @NYtimes and @robintrower

@maureendowd a couple of names for Donald Trump: “The Orange Menace” and “The Danger Yam” (my personal favorite).

. @milgard all I want to do is see what size and glass types are available for awning windows, and your website makes this impossible.

I’m as guilty as anyone of thinking of my @Columbia undergraduates as “kids.” But here is what I’ve seen them do in the last two weeks: (1/10)

@TMobileHelp I want ad-free Netflix that I can stream through my phone as part of my service, as was part of the deal. Can you arrange please? Otherwise there’s no point in staying with @TMobile.

@suegemmell Hi there. We'll make sure you're getting the most out of your Netflix on Us offer so you can enjoy your content. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. You can check out more details here: t-mo.cc/2f55w8uii2 and please DM us with any questions. ^CharlesOpacki twitter.com/messages/compo…

Do NOT use @TMobile! Really hating them. I switched because they promised free @netflix for life but they soon moved us all to the ad infested plan. Which does not even work on my phone which is how I stream Netflix. FU @TMobile. Give me the ad free @Netflix I signed up for.

@davidpakmanshow Actually (and just as crazy) Rick Wiles is *not* targeting veggie burgers he is targeting *lab-grown meat* (Not the same) Thought you’d want to know. youtu.be/gncRvkn9bQU?si…

Bait and switch by @TMobile 😡

@AlaskaAir Also my reservation was for the nonstop, but the flight departure time changed and I wasn’t notified. I really want to make it home tonight as was planned and paid for.

@suegemmell Sorry to hear your reservation had a schedule change and your flight is slightly delayed. Got my fingers crossed you make the connection 🤞 🤞 - Nadine

Hey @AlaskaAir I’m on 1411 from PVR to SEA and need to connect to 936 from SEA to PDX. Please ensure I connect! Months ahead of time I purchased a nonstop from PVR to PDX but due to Alaska’s goof I’m going the long way — and very sad about it.

@AlaskaAir How effective is crossing fingers vs. contacting the gate and letting them know I need to make that connection?
