the police did NOT mistake the SUV for a stolen motorcycle. that is obviously a lie, and so it should be in quotes or attributed to the police -- NOT presented as reported fact

"Rather than ask whether conspiracy kookery is relevant to Republican politics at this moment, it would be better to ask if there is anything else to Republican politics at this moment."
“Trump’s always been a conspiracy kook. What we’re seeing in the twilight of his kookery is the merger of QAnon, the GOP, and the large part of the conservative movement that earns its bread peddling miracle pills to gullible elderly people on the radio”

why is this framed as the GOP trying to "rein in the Fed"? implicit is that the Fed needs reining in (why?) and its reasonable b/c reining in stuff is what reasonable people do.
how about handicap the Fed? Circumvent the fed?

** fwiw that is not at all what mcneil and other mets suggested to me, in my article where this quote originally appears!
"We don't really have one guy who's getting after people. Maybe it's something we do need. I've never really had that on the Mets. Three or four years, I've never really had that."
Jeff McNeil and others suggested that the Mets lack a clubhouse leader
