Blood and Iron, Fritz Stern's book about Bleichroeder and Bismarck? If so, cool. Fritz would be chuffed that he is still getting read.

Boy do the NYY ever SUCK. My goodness, I do not think they could possibly play any worse.

why in Gd's name does Boone keep turning to Mark Leiter Jr. Leiter Jr. is a disaster out of the bullpen. So irksome to watch another game go down the shitter.

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Plenty of anti-Semites yelling "Black Lives Matter" sadly. I guess you were among them.

Oh dear, you are the one who needs re-education. A vast gulf yawns between Netanyu's actions (he is a war criminal) and suggesting Israel is not a legitimate state. If I lived in Tel Aviv, I would have protested against him and his ilk every motzei Shabbat. But Netanyahu is not Israel.

Bless your heart. Mamdani openly supports the boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement and challenges Israel’s identity as a Jewish state. Pretty much defines an anti-Semite. #amIsraelChai

Mamdani is an anti-Semite.

Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani is now here calling for the release of Lander (his fellow mayoral candidate)

They don’t believe in any gods and can’t read the Bible. How can they possibly do the morally correct thing?

Learn to love being hated. Democracy depends on it.

Thinking of a hero I knew and admired.

G-d save me from obnoxious know-it-alls who are so stupid they don't know how basic facts, eg, Italy has the same seasons the US has, when Shakespeare lived. And then get all sissy and offended if you laugh at them. Well, suck it up, honey, if your fund of knowledge is that shallow.
