Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

We cannot just ignore 3D television or digital radio. If we do it is at our peril.

We killed Daniel Tiger for this?

Seeing this word for the first time and knowing I’ll use if forever is like staring into the sun and having the sun hand me baby Jesus while it blinds me forever and burns the hair off my forearms.

I watched him do a set of these live the night of the 2016 election. It will always mean “the end of before time” to me. The last stand of normal.

Wasn’t the FCC just talking about News Distortion?

If we had a complete ban on ai until we could figure out whether it could be made safe, what would we “lose”? Kids cheating on homework and a bunch of insufferable popups. Like you’re going to kill Amazon Rufus and Microsoft Copilot? I would vote for that so hard.

I’ve been thinking about this. I think they each do. DC’s is Svenonius, for better or for worse. NYs was Lou Reed. Etc.

One big beautiful war

That statue, which was cast back in 1961, was modeled on 1950s Texas Rangers – as in the law enforcement Texas Rangers – Captain Jay Banks. Since it's unveiling 65 years ago it has spent most of its life at Love Field in Dallas. But then in 2020 it was removed and placed in storage. Why? Because Captain Jay Banks was a racist cop who made it his mission to stop schools from integrating. This is an excerpt from the 2020 book, Cult of Glory: The Bold and Brutal History of the Texas Rangers by Doug Swanson, which describes' Banks' role in efforts to keep schools in Texas racially segregated in defiance of the United States Supreme Court's 1954 decision, Brown v. Board of Education: Then there is the form and face of the statue itself. This dates to 1956, when the NAACP, backed with a court order, attempted to integrate the high school in Mansfield, about 30 miles southwest of Dallas. White residents erupted in fury, so Gov. Allan Shivers dispatched the Rangers. But unlike state police in other Southern racial hotspots, the Rangers in Mansfield did not escort black students past howling mobs of white supremacists. They had been sent instead to keep the black children out of a white school.

The commanding Ranger on the scene was Sgt. E.J. “Jay” Banks. A wire service photo showed him casually leaning against a tree outside Mansfield High. To his left, above the school’s entrance, was a dummy in blackface, hanging from a noose. Nearby a white mob had assembled. Some carried signs that threatened death for anyone attempting to integrate the school. Banks saw no need to remove the effigy or disperse the mob. “They were just ‘salt of the earth’ citizens,” he later wrote. “They were concerned because they were convinced that someone was trying to interfere with their way of life.” Blacks were so intimidated that none attempted to enroll at Mansfield. Several days later, Gov. Shivers ordered Banks and a few other Rangers to Northeast Texas, because African-Americans wished to take classes at all-white Texarkana Junior College, a public institution. Again the Rangers’ job was to stop black students from enrolling. As at Mansfield, a mob of white men gathered outside the school. An 18-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy, both black, arrived by cab and began to walk toward the college. The mob blocked their path. Some surrounded the 17-year-old and kicked him, while others threw gravel. The Rangers watched it happen and did nothing except threaten to arrest the two students. That wire service photo of Banks in front of the school with the Black person hung in effigy can be seen at the top of today's newsletter.

The statue was removed from public view in 2020 in the wake of that book about the Rangers being published. This occurred at the same time that statues of Confederates, Klansmen, racists, and segregationists were removed all over the country following the murder of George Floyd. But now the Texas Rangers Baseball Club, knowing full well the history of the statue, its subject, and its removal, and knowing that multiple municipal institutions decided it was inappropriate for public display, is happy to put that statue up in a public concourse at a major league baseball stadium. When I learned of this yesterday afternoon I contacted Major League Baseball and asked the following questions: Is Major League Baseball aware of the history of the "One Riot, One Ranger" statue and its subject, Jay Banks? Is Major League Baseball aware that Love Field and the City of Dallas removed the statue and put it in storage in 2020 after Banks' involvement in attempting to keep schools segregated in the 1950s came to light? Does Major League Baseball condone one of its Clubs erecting a previously-removed statue of a staunch segregationist at its ballpark?; and Does Major League Baseball have any comment regarding the discomfort that will be felt by Black fans when confronted with the statue of a segregationist at Globe Life Field? I did not receive a response. I'm going to assume that the league's silence on this means that it wholly condones the Rangers putting up the "One Riot, One Ranger" statue despite its sordid and extraordinarily well-reported history.

Yesterday the Texas Rangers erected a statue of a segregationist cop at Globe Life Field. A statue that was removed from public property in 2020 because of its racist history. @mlb.com has refused to comment. www.cupofcoffeenews.com/cup-of-coffe...

I don’t know dude I still think it’s going to be Pritzker

Lol

Can you imagine the performance enhancing drugs they will pump him with? His body may not be able to handle it.

We need someone with that dog in em

Moore is good. Does he have the fire for this moment? He looks like he’s never killed a man. 28 will be a back alley knife fight.

That’s the game I’m playing. Who’ve you got?

Obama was too young, and Black, but after Bush the rules were different. 28 is 08 on steroids.

What's the issue with Jennifer? Tom can get the (former) Prince Andrew treatment. Jewish isn't an issue but the AIPAC history is. Maybe he deals with it by picking AOC as VP.

It’s going to be the big boy, clippy.

The should hire @capitalweather.bsky.social

Ahh. I’m thinking noncommercial for FCC purposes not corporate purposes.
