This doesn’t seem like a big deal

Fun fact, since you mentioned the bridge was so long. The bridge was built there at the long expanse because it is more than 50 miles away from the Statue of Liberty. If it was at a narrower section of river, one mile south, the tolls and taxes would be collected by the Port Authority of NY and NJ instead of Just NY.…

yes

What is it with all the crane collapses in NYC?
Just the sheer volume of tower cranes there and the law of averages?

I’m aware of the bill. They passed that bill at the height of the Iroquois Theory’s popularity. These debates particularly raged in the 90s.

As repugnant as I find King’s comments...this is something of an urban legend for which there is little to no concrete evidence. The historian in me is compelled to respond!

Point of clarification that even ABC made: This was not “Obama’s Town Hall.” ABC planned this event, asked the President to come, and he accepted. I think ABC is solely to blame re: the ordering of questions, etc.

I started to feel like I was attempting to report something that did not need reporting in the first place. Why did I or Fusion or anyone else care who the real Jennifer Mayers was? Why did we care about her intentions?

RIP in piece to a brave hero who was taken much too soon — Harambe (the gorilla who died)

Ole! Good fucking riddance.

Alternate headline: “Asshole Dies For Doing Asshole Things.”

I’m not saying it was up to typical Saudners quality. But the quoted text completely misrepresents his whole point. And is totally misframing his argument.

No, this story completely misrepresented what he wrote. She literally quoted his words were he wasn’t talking about two Americas and then claimed he was talking about two opposed view points. That wasn’t anywhere in the quote.

Social media and #activism created these self-aggrandizing, holier-than-thou shits with delusions of Herzog

—the realization that there are two Americas, as well as the delusion that they’re are inherently separate from one another, complete with ideologies that never overlap
