Good Lord.
Referring to Greg. The story he links to quotes Chris as saying it was sarcastic. Greg just ignored that to make his political point.
With complete self-absorption, I checked what Google AI said about me.
"At UNC, John Robinson is a prominent faculty member at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. He serves as the Senior Associate Dean for Undergraduate Studies and is the John H. Stembler Jr. Distinguished Professor."
Nope
Growing up in Oklahoma, every morning in elementary school we would recite the Pledge and the Lord's Prayer. Since then, membership in organized religion has declined.
Just sayin.'

Wild that I used to think the Department of Justice was the good guys. Now I assume everything it does is tainted by political payback.
An embarrassment to this Murphy. Dude must have forgotten when Trump posted “Praise be to Allah.”
“At the point when a woman is choosing to try and leave a violent and abusive partner, husband — especially when there are children involved — it means that the violence has escalated for some time."
He can't even say that Joe Biden won the 2020 election, and Trump didn't.

Maybe someone at the CBS table on Saturday can ask him about it.
Imagine as a journalist sitting at a table with Pete Hegseth and having to resist punching his smug, anti-press face.
The Trump economy.
“But many also came to pocket a check to help pay for gas, groceries and other daily essentials that many said have become too expensive to cover with their day job alone.”

A “change agent”? But I was told that a Dow at 50,000 is a great thing!

Imagine having more money than God and not wanting to use some of it to help others in need.

Spending more than $1 million to investigate a school dedicated to teaching civic leadership and then REFUSING to make the results public is just the sort of bizarro logic we’ve come to expect.

"if you read the Fake News, like The Failing New York Times, the absolutely horrendous and disgusting Wall Street Journal, or the now almost defunct, fortunately, Washington Post..."
This is the guy journalists will stand up and applaud Saturday.
I understand the justifications to dine with the guy who is working to destroy your independence & livelihood. They're all bad. But if you're going to go, at least have the dignity to turn your back when he starts speaking & referring to you as "fake news" and "enemy of the people."
Trump’s tariffs still screw us.
“The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do.”

Killing innocent people is one of Trump’s legacies:
👉Iranian civilians school children
👉Immigrants in the U.S.
👉Boat people in the high seas
👉Minneapolis protesters
👉One-time USAID recipients
While we’re here let’s remember the Epstein files!
That Yale report on what's wrong with U.S. college saw some trees (high cost, unfair admission, etc.) but missed the forest: the 60-year right-wing crusade to undermine higher ed, from slashing budgets to stifling speech
How to really fix college. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/yale...
The absurdity of this framing cracked me up.
“The Dow is over 50,000! Why are you laughing?”
Hey, Siri: What state is #43 in the nation for average teacher pay?
“The education degree shortage is particularly stark. The system reports a gap of around 1,800 degrees annually

I've been overseas for three weeks, dropping in on the news but only occasionally. Coming back and looking at Trump's hourly firehose of sewage and toxic waste makese realize why people stop following the news.
“West Virginia’s emergency request landed with Chief Justice Roberts on Jan. 26, 2016, just as the Supreme Court was scattering into vacation mode for an annual midwinter break.”
As do all workers with lifetime appointments & paid annual midwinter breaks.
“The emergency docket is now a central legacy of the court led by Chief Justice Roberts.”
How damn embarrassing.
Mr Balls and Strikes has an obtuse strike zone. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...
I can’t get over how poorly we allow the airlines to treat paying customers. Long legs? Tough. Wide hips? Lose weight. You have a schedule? Sorry but we need to change our flight. Want to carry something on? Pay me.
