The @penguins beat the Flyers 7-0 in Philadelphia tonight.

That's the largest road shutout in a season opener in NHL history.

Someone tell the folks at Democrats Win Action Fund that if they need help de-duping a list of phone numbers, I can give them a lesson.

@MaraMellstrom The first time I watched it, I didn't realize that each episode was it's own thing. I was so confused on where they were going to go in episode 2...

I remember watching the events of 9/11 from my high school near Pittsburgh. The local news cut in to report Flight 93 crashing. I thought planes were falling from the sky and it was the end of the world.

A United Airlines Boeing 757, maybe Flight 93, has crashed near Pittsburgh. The cause is unknown. 

One nearby farmer took this picture, the only on-the-ground evidence that the plane has gone down:

@AbdulElSayed’s buddy @hasanthehun is probably watching this and celebrating

Adult Swim, a new adult-oriented block of television programming, launches on Cartoon Network.

The block is characterized but its surreally humorous bumpers, featuring nonsensical cuts of pool scenes.

Every day a new clip from this jackass gets posted of something I can't believe he actually said.

BOMBSHELL: Hasan Piker admits that Abdul El-Sayed was the one who asked Piker to campaign for him.

“I had not considered that before.”

“I’ve already had the guy on like a hundred times on the broadcast. You know, I’ve fundraised for him.”

Piker: "It’s laughable to say guys like myself, guys like Abdul El-Sayed, we hate America."

Also Piker: "I hate America."

Call it the backlash to the backlash—Unions and building trades say they will oppose candidates attacking data centers, putting Democrats and other long-term allies in a pickle.

Annndddd this is why @PerkinsRRP always says to never trust a poll you didn't pay for. We don't have to make up our numbers to get them right

[Ron Rule @ronrule]

In 2001 George W Bush proposed a partial privatization plan for Social Security so you could put 10% of your SS contribution into the markets.

People rejected this.

We can now see that if it had passed, the 10% that went into the markets would have outperformed the 90% the government managed, the program would be solvent, and the average SS recipient would be receiving 2X what they currently receive.

The worst bet you’ll ever make is betting on government.
