Jews MUST learn from Italian Americans. Mamdani tried to be cute and exclude them from a map, and within 24 hours this community relentlessly confronted him and spoke out. They did not shy away, write letters, or philosophize about how to quietly approach this. They put the arrogant activist amateur back in his place and got him shaking in his knees. Little Italy is back on the map! This is HOW IT’S DONE my fellow Jewish New Yorkers!
@RahmEmanuel’s candid, tough-love speech in Tel Aviv deserves attention from anyone who cares about the future of both Israelis and Palestinians.

Credible allegations of physical or sexual violence against women, with independent corroboration, can’t be ignored — whether it's a Democrat or Republican, a private citizen or a senior leader, like the President of the United States.
Mr. Platner has denied the allegations, and he has the right to defend himself -- but at a certain point every leader has to decide what’s best for the people he hopes to represent.
He should do the right thing, drop out quickly, and give Maine Democrats the opportunity to select a new nominee who can compete and win in November.
Anti-Israel.
Anti-America.
Anti-Western Civilization.
Why am I the only Democrat in the U.S. Senate that refuses to excuse this or defend any of those self-identified communists?
Adriano Espaillat endorsing Zohran for Mayor.
1 year later Mamdani would fabricate a story, painting him as a racist and oust him from Congress for a personal sycophant of his own.
There should be a lesson here.
Wishing all the dads and stepdads out there a happy Father’s Day. This is the first Father’s Day since my dad died, so here’s a little bit about my dad Curt who we lost back in January.
There is no single person in my life who taught me more about integrity and decency than my dad. And no one who shaped me more as a person.
In a complicated world, my dad had four, uncomplicated loves: Family. Friends. Farm. Food. And the absolute peak of his happiness was when his four loves were together at the same time: grilling a great piece of meat for his family and friends at the farm.
One of the great lessons I take from his life is to find your three or four loves and focus on them consistently and intensely. Do that and your life will be well-lived.
I miss him deeply and will be thinking of him throughout the day. If you, like me, have lost a father, I know today can be difficult. I am thinking of you as well.
Idris Elba says James Bond shouldn't be "woke":
“Bond is so unrealistic, so a hint of reality is good, but let’s not try and make it woke. I think you’ve got to be pure to what it is: escapism. Don’t try and answer the world’s taste. Just be Bond.” https://t.co/HooRqPvIhr

On this day one hundred years ago, the one and only Don Rickles was born. Across a career that spanned decades, Rickles made a specialty of ribbing his audiences, punching up at those in power and joining the dais for countless celebrity roasts. His ability to make audiences laugh while being the target of the joke earned him the nickname “Mr. Warmth.”
The National Comedy Center is the home of Rickles’ career archive and celebrates his lasting contributions to the art form within its interactive museum experience in Jamestown, NY.
