My younger child ruined my nyt crossword streak by using hints

This is not horrible since it means they are doing it

Similar result as SGBear. I had determined 4 letters in the first two guesses, but not the order in which they appeared. 3rd guess confirmed the order, but not the first letter.

I feel like I'm underperforming when I know 4 letters but need 3 more guesses to get the correct word.

When you’ve gotten 4 letters, but there are still 3 or more possible words, that’s the trap.

Democrat wins Florida State special election (for only about 8 months) for the area that includes Mar a Lago (and Trump's mail in ballot). It was a 17 point swing and an indicator that midterms will be a blue wave.

We recommend getting to the airport seven hours early to give you enough time to do duty free shopping

Can you imagine being a PR professional and having to write press releases/EOs in the voice of the president?

Good news, everybody. You can die for the Orange Fuhrer at the age of 42 in a war to distract people from him being a pedo.
