My favorite Flagg quote.

@ClassicMASH If I lose control, you guys don't have the clearance to hear what's in my head.

I don't have the stomach for it.

@ClassicMASH I have nothing to do with Intelligence.

Better. You won't get worry lines.

It was called tolerance, acceptance and respect. We have lost much of that under the Trump administration.

Bari Weiss's legacy will be that she was the unqualified, incompetent, blinded-by-hubris egomaniac who destroyed an prestigious news network and iconic No 1 news program. And Nick Bilton will go down as the arrogant fool who curiosly hopped on the Weisstanic as it headed for the 'berg...

Americans nationwide have had a chance to hear this orchestra annually during the Memorial Day and July 4th concerts on PBS since the 1980s. It would be a tragedy if the group conducted so ably first by the late Erich Kunzel and now by Jack Everly became collateral damage.

Betty White had the rare ability to stay beloved across multiple generations without ever feeling like a nostalgia act. Most careers have one defining era. She somehow remained funny, sharp, and completely in on the joke for more than half a century.

@atrupar Right now, he's convinced being a trump suck-up is great for his career. Oh for whoever can convince him otherwise.

When home values go up, property taxes go up. When they go down, so does property tax revenue.

Don’t put a radical property tax cut in the constitution just because people don’t remember the Great Recession and its aftermath on housing prices

“The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.” - The Usual Suspects

The greatest trick DeSantis ever pulled was convincing Floridians that local government is the problem and state government is the solution.

If your mayor, sheriff, and county commission have to fly to Tallahassee every year to ask permission to fund basic services, the state didn’t shrink government.

It just moved it farther away and gave you less control.

Just talked to Steve Kroft. I asked him if he'd trust what airs on 60 Minutes going forward.

"No. Not like I have done in the past." Kroft said. "There has been a breach of trust."

We will have that interview on All Things Considered and Consider This tonight.

[Geoff Bennett @GeoffRBennett]

NEW: Former 60 Minutes correspondent Steve Kroft calls the changes under Bari Weiss "disastrous." He adds: "This is journalistic interference. It makes no business sense whatsoever. It's the highest rated news program on television, and it has been that way for more than 50 years. The audience was up about 9% last year. Why would you mess with that?" Our conversation airs tonight on the @newshour .

@servicerotties Great progress, Kenji and Marla! Great both for safety and for that chicken sandwich. 😉

@ClassicMASH Do I know you? And don't try to deny it.

@servicerotties Could you convince her that you hadn't had breakfast yet?
