I love Jurgen Klopp. The Teutonic Care Bear.

The New York Times@nytimes.com

From @theathleticfc.bsky.social: Head coach Jurgen Klopp has derided accusations that his German national team is “not white enough” as “complete nonsense.” He added: “There is absolutely no reason to pay attention to these people.”

KAEPERNICK: The part that I hope people take away in this moment is what Robert Kraft and what they’re saying by denying Macklemore is they are openly colluding. They also want people to know that if you take an action that they don’t agree with, they will come for you.

LFG

“The American Cancer Society is now working on a national campaign to make more women and doctors aware that tube removal can help prevent most ovarian cancers.” My mother died of ovarian cancer. I’m glad to see this. And the science story here is also worth the read. 1/2 🧪

I think the universal grieving comes in no small part from the fact she represented the best of what America could be, and that she never stopped chasing that ideal, artistically and socially

RIP Dolly, a great American. I didn’t really appreciate her for the first ~40 years of my life, but I do now.

I know people will yell at me but: "Regulate the shit out of it and fine companies a bazillion dollars when they're negligent or willfully harmful" seems like a more sustainable position in the long term than "reject all AI on principle." I just don't think the latter argument is winnable.

Just had a classic John Mulaney Delta Airlines experience... I know that flights get cancelled and it's a nightmare for everyone, but my god.

Finally replacing my expired Nest fire alarms. Kidde, I am not impressed. Customer service link leads to a 404

Twice this week I've been even further radicalized about U.S. health care delivery. How many human-millenia of time are wasted each year on needless calls between patient, provider, PCP, insurer, etc.?

Not sure about the conclusion (FIFA is that corrupt), but #1-3 are all verifiably true. Go #USMNT! I can’t wait for kickoff.

People would feel a lot better if they remembered 1) Trump has never done good on purpose 2) he's a huge liar 3) he takes credit for stuff he didn't do. When you remember that and see he didn't say anything about it until after the suspension was lifted, it's obvious he had nothing to do with it.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

This J6 insurrectionist was sentenced to life in prison for child molestation. He tried to keep his victims quiet by promising them a share of the millions he was going to get from Trump. Maybe he knew something we didn't.

npr.orgA Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuseSince receiving presidential pardons, dozens of former Capitol rioters have gotten into more legal trouble. In Florida, Andrew Paul Johnson was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse.

BREAKING: It's official. The Trump DOJ just confirmed the creation of a $1.776 billion slush fund that can be used to pay Trump allies who claim they've been wrongfully targeted by the Biden admin's ‘weaponization' — including, reportedly, Jan. 6 insurrectionists.

Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tel everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket for free and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Has anything Trump ever said would happen “in two weeks” ever happened in two weeks, plus or minus a day? I’m genuinely curious

How was this not bigger news? I realize there’s a run-off, but this is another strong result

MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com

NEWS: Democrat Shawn Harris has forced a runoff in the special election for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s deep-red Georgia seat (Trump +37). With ~70% in, Harris leads with 38.3% to Trump-endorsed Republican Clay Fuller’s 34.5%. Runoff set for April 7. A major warning sign for MAGA.
