The tone is less “Commander in Chief” and more “guy who just won a 3AM fight in a Waffle House parking lot.”

Stupid Trump post.

This is an actual Pentagon press release. “An Army believed to be casualty…the believed to be death”
They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"
Funny thing about nights like this.
You start thinking about those who used to be part of the room. Not gone exactly… just someplace else now. Different streets. Different lives. But every once in a while something comes on the radio and suddenly they’re with you again.
Mm-hmm.
Let it ride.
If the intent was to intimidate us or silence our reporting, it didn't work.
BTW, here's a recent story identifying some violent agents from El Paso who passed through Chicago and the Twin Cities.
Nice they can agree on something.
If Sun-, Mon-, or Tues- the -day do be,
The game is on Peacock or perhaps N- and/or ABC;
If Wednesday has come round again,
'Tis wise to check ESPN;
Yet if it be long weekend time,
Search Disney's sports verticals, but first try searching Prime
Wow. You can persuade Trump into anything using this bulletproof line of argument.

This company needs to be put out of business.
It’s an indictment of society that it’s allowed to exist at all, but it’s all the more damning that it possesses the prominence it does.
Sharing this one more time—if you sort of know about Palantir but don't understand what it is, or if you do understand what it is but would enjoy a deeper look at Alex Karp's Smugly Translating Nonexistent Works of Nietzsche for a Nonexistent 1934 Audience writing style, I've got you covered
The entire Democratic strategy debate — "moderate" or move left? fight or compromise? — is based on a misreading of data. Voters don't think Dems are too progressive; they think Dems are weak. The actual math on what to do about this isn't even close!

Four years after Russia’s full-scale invasion, “Ukrainians are living this war in their work, their social lives, their waking and sleeping hours,” our columnist M. Gessen writes.
Do not come to the US. For any but the most dire reason. Do not come.
i've decided not to listen to the audio of a teacher reporting a kindergartender because frankly I don't want to become the person that that event would turn me into. but one thing I hope we are collectively coming to grips with is what it meant that we have lived among such people this whole time
Meanwhile, Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer is under fire for taking her staff to a strip club in Portland and keeping a stash of booze in her office.
It's like this entire administration is a coke-fueled key party.
The Epstein Question No One Will Answer

John Brown inspects a curling stone.
From @theathletic.com: How are curling stones made, and why does only one company have the rights to make them? We explored the uninhabited Scottish island that makes one of the most interesting Olympic sports possible. nyti.ms/4kKA5uf

Anthropic, the safety-focused A.I. company formed by former OpenAI executives, said on Thursday that it was putting $20 million into a new super PAC operation that will be in opposition to super PACs backed by OpenAI’s leaders and investors.
“When Citizens United was decided in 2010, billionaires had spent $18 million on the 2000 election, $13M 2004 and $16M in 2008. Then came the deluge. In 2012 it was $231M, and nearly doubled again in next three election cycles —to $682M in 2016, $1.2 billion in 2020 and $2.6 billion in 2024.” Gift:
A vibrant, wide-angle photo of a colorful outdoor mural promoting the "Super Bowl LX Apple Music Halftime Show." The mural is painted on a long blue wall in a sunlit, tropical setting with real palm trees and bright pink bougainvillea flowers cascading over the top. The artwork features a playful, surreal collage of cultural and football-themed elements: Central Text: The Apple Music logo in bold yellow and red 3D lettering is flanked by "SUPER BOWL LX" above and "HALFTIME SHOW" below. Iconic Imagery: Large illustrations of a golden trumpet, pink sunglasses, maracas, dominoes, and a cup of coffee with a musical note in the foam. Football Elements: Brown footballs are depicted growing on palm trees like coconuts and resting on the ground. Foreground: A young girl in a yellow dress walks along the sidewalk in front of the mural, passing a small goalpost illustration where a green parrot is perched. The overall aesthetic is warm, festive, and celebrates a fusion of Latin-inspired culture and American football.
I'm going to do a thread of all the references and context behind Bad Bunny's performance and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see this on the biggest stage.
The opening title screen is a street mural in Puerto Rico that comes to life with footballs as coconuts.
