There was hope that he would suit up at some point in the 2021-22 season, but the three-time All-Star ended up missing all 82 games for a number of reasons.

Unfortunately, Bill Barr already had a job—as Attorney General of the United States, our nation’s top law enforcement official. And we must not let him do both jobs at once.

Today she is remembered as a resolute, tough-minded leader who was fond of tanks and relished a fight. Hillary Clinton, commentators cry, asks to be treated more gently because she is a woman. Thatcher didn’t have to. What we forget is how happily Thatcher exploited stereotypes when it was convenient to do so.
