  1. "It was shown as an inflight movie and people still walked out."

    #MaureenDowd talking about #Melania the #movie.

  2. Robert Redford quote:

    “I was not interested in the red, white and blue part of America,” Redford told NPR’s Terry Gross. “I was interested in the grey part where complexity lies.”

    In a 'correspondents section' article by Maureen Dowd, written Sept 21, 2025, published by the Irish Times online.

    It's a very thought-provoking statement.

  3. CW: Maureen Dowd uspol rfkjr

    "Vax Quack Lacks Facts" - yes, I read a MoDo column for the first time in a decade, and it wasn't egregiously annoying. In fact I agreed with it. Those are the times we live in.

  4. The New York Times's Maureen Dowd CAN write great artcles that don't savage Democratic candidates.
    (Let's hope she does this more often.)
    Here's a sample paragraph from a gift-linked article:
    "It’s a paradox: If you choose your cabinet based on looks, you are likely to end up with a cabinet that makes you look bad. Running government is harder than bloviating on Fox News and assorted podcasts."

  5. @kegill @nytimes In fairness, #MaureenDowd has been a one-woman gaggle of hacks for years.

  6. We don't hear anything from #MaureenDowd anymore, thank goodness. Although her last commentaries yielded the last 8 years, so perhaps she has finally yielded to temperance and put her quill away. One can hope?

  12. Only in America!

    “A man is running to run the government he tried to overthrow while he was running it, even as he is running to stay ahead of the law.
    That sounds loony, except in the topsy-turvy world of Donald Trump, where it has a grotesque logic.
    The question now is: Has #Trump finally run out of time, thanks to #JackSmith, who runs marathons as an Ironman triathlete? Are those ever-loving walls really closing in this time?”

  13. I am not generally a fan of #MaureenDowd, but she nailed this one on #SCOTUS. If you're not familiar with the story of #NeilGorsuch and his mom, whom Ronald Reagan dispatched to destroy the #EPA, it's important. nytimes.com/2023/05/06/opinion

  14. The first word of this #MaureenDowd column is wrong, because not "everyone" is frantically hunting for clues about whether Joe Biden will run again.
