Can anyone actually get this to work? Every flight I’m on I don’t want to take the disposable headphones and use my AirPods, but I can never connect. @united
Just in from Nielsen: The final night of the DNC drew an average of 26.2 million viewers across 15 networks -- roughly 6 million more than the three nights prior.
Viewership surged during Kamala Harris' speech with 28.9 million viewers tuning in from 10:31pm to 11:11pm ET.
Why don't Republican negative points vs Harris-Walz - some of them even approximately true! - do more damage?
The problem Republicans have is that every election is a compare and contrast. And they overwhelmingly renominated a candidate who ...

Healthcare in the US is crazy.
Years ago in Telluride my youngest son age 9 developed terrible abdominal pain. Paramedics came to the hotel, said it might be an appendicitis. Brought us down to the Telluride urgent care and woke the doctor up who lived next door.
Doc came over, lifted my son’s heel up over the bed and let it drop. He turned to us and said “it’s just a stomach ache. No appendicitis. If that ever happens again use the heel drop. If they scream in agony, then go to the hospital.”
We received bills from Telluride Medical Center for next five years or so. Just randomly. Probably totaled around $7000.00.
A year would go by and then another bill would randomly appear.
That is one expensive heel drop.
My friend Joanna was assaulted on the subway Thursday. She saw an Asian family being harassed and took video to identify the suspects- so they attacked her. It breaks my heart that anti-Asian violence continues to happen. Please share. @NYPDnews#StopAsianHate
