J.K. Rowling is well on her way to becoming “She Who Must Not Be Named.” It doesn’t seem to bother her.

First of all, why we even need an International Women’s Day is beyond me. I’ve never been a fan of made-up days to celebrate anything, let alone one expressly to supposedly celebrate my gender.

Matt Reeves’ The Batman is a top-notch superhero thriller, with just a few frustrations preventing it from being a masterpiece.

On Monday night’s The ReidOut on MSNBC, host Joy Reid used the last segment of her prime-time show to exploit the war in Ukraine in order to play racial politics.
