New YouGov poll finds that for the first time, a majority of Americans disapprove of Trump *strongly.* His overall approval is down to 38%, a new second-term low.

When is the last time a majority has disapproved strongly of a president?

Hillary Clinton: They have Kash Patel who is more interested in drinking beer in a hockey, dressing room after our team won the olympics. Reasonable people can only assume Pam Bondi and the DOJ are engaged in a massive coverup. They and Trump should answer questions under oath.

Which Is Better, One Long Walk or Many Short Ones? A new analysis is one of the first to study whether spacing steps out or consolidating them was linked to better health outcomes.

A new study suggests that going on longer walks may have more health benefits than taking the same number of steps a day over multiple short walks.

Fox News inadvertently airs an actual crime - the excessive use of force against a protestor in Portland by ICE - this agent should be immediately fired and arrested.

Rory McIlroy took a three stoke lead on a two-shot swing at the Masters, and then stepped up to the 5th tee and took such a lash at the ball it looked like he slipped three discs -- and hit it in the trees. Why, Rory? Why did you have to swing that hard?

Trump’s golden age: Microsoft has canceled plans to build 3 new data centers worth $1 billion in Ohio.

The company did not give a reason for stopping the projects, only saying the decision was made β€œafter careful consideration” (Likely due to Trump’s tariffs)
