I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

🚧πŸ”₯ The city's asphalt plant is now open for the season! Over 100 municipalities from Minnesota and western Wisconsin depend on the plant's "hot mix" to fill those pesky potholes, and our Public Works crews are working overtime to keep our streets in top shape! πŸ›£οΈπŸ’ͺ

For some reason the Twins date to 1901 but the LA Dodgers to 1958, this is Washington Senators cancellation

Bill Kurtis retires from 'Wait Wait...' NPR quiz show after 12-year run The 85-year-old former CBS anchorman will lend his sonorous, familiar voice to a final show on May 23.

No offense to @petersagal.bsky.social but Bill Kurtis is my favorite part of β€˜Wait Wait,’ only in part because I remember him well from WBBM-TV during my college years in Chicago. Congrats and best wishes to him.

Burcum: No HCMC, no safety net. Minnesota can’t afford to find out what comes next. The state’s most essential hospital is in financial peril, columnist Jill Burcum writes. A repurposed Twins stadium sales tax won’t make everyone happy β€” but it may be the only path forward.

🫩 sad when you’re rooting for your team to get the 14th seed so you don’t have to play Tuesday on Peacock.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!
