#SineadOConnor was an utterly unique cultural figure. Nobody like her before or since in popular music. Haunting, bold, totally true to herself. Burned bright. Rest easy, Sinead. https://t.co/V39swbLqmm

@Montreal L'Express - From the big jar of cornichons to the veal kidneys in mustard sauce, it's on point. You definitely leave there feeling very well fed.

An astonishing number of Republicans and former Trump aides have calmly, factually testified under oath that the entire country was put at risk by the front-runner for the 2024 Republican nomination.
