The New York Times has a proud history of being wrong, but nothing, and I mean nothing, will ever beat the last paragraph of their endorsement of Abraham Lincoln.

Their FDR endorsement makes it somewhat competitive though.
Biden is our FDR, part 548.

The blue checks stick together even when of them turns out to be a career con artist who robs and blackmails people.
This exact same thing can be said of Bernie Madoff but he was never good for engagement.
They're going all in on this.

I want a movie that shows the tragic backstory of the terrorist from Speed, and how his family was hit by a bus.
I want a prequel to Apollo 13 where we learn why the oxygen tank had a vendetta against the pressure sensor.
I want a Brave Little Toaster prequel where we learn why the air conditioner hates life.

He...wasn't president last year?
When Biden wrote the crime bill, NYC had nearly 2000 homicides a year. The crime surge of 2020 was the homicide rate going from 300 to 400.
No one accuses Democrats of being soft on crime anymore because crime isn't something voters care about the way they did 30 years ago. Younger progressives are skeptical of the whole notion of law enforcement because violent crime has been relegated to the margins of society.

There are 6 state capitals to the west of Los Angeles.
Honolulu, Juneau, Sacramento, Salem, Olympia, Carson City.
Also sharks are older than trees and Cleopatra lived closer to the moon landing than to the construction of the Great Pyramids.

Let’s talk about why I don’t trust Catholic priests, besides the glaringly obvious.
They chose a life with basically no responsibilities. No family, rent, mortgage, fear of getting fired, no anything. And I get that, life is scary, some people just have to run.
So, why not join a monastery? Hole up and pray all day. “But they want to help their community!” There are a million ways to do that. They chose the priesthood specifically so they could have profound psychological control over their community.

I'd like to put forth a sociological theory that I've spent very little time considering, and if any sociologists would like to point out what are almost certainly critical flaws, please do.
Max Weber's Protestant Work Ethic is predicated on the simple idea that everyone wants to know they're good people. For Catholics that's easy, you tell a priest what you've done and they'll tell you if you're good or not. But Protestants faced a new dilemma.
Protestants had to figure out if they're good people by themselves. They decided you can tell if a person is good based on how you contribute to society, i.e., how hard you worked. Thus was born the Protestant Work Ethic.
