Do you know how hard it is to lose the war if you're the United States? It's about as unlikely as bankrupting a casino.

It's already illegal. Congress banned it near-unanimously in 2022. That law allows the ban to be lifted only if Russia withdraws from Ukraine. He's simply breaking the law that's already on the books.

Ossoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

An amazingly stark example of how the US economy has broken: Zaslav clears nearly a *billion* dollars amid a CEO tenure where he made basically anything he touched worse, harmed multiple prestigious brands, led huge layoffs—but delivered a corrupt merger for shareholders. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

So, one of my best argument against the electoral college is that it actually provides perverse incentives to presidents to ignore states they’re not going to win. Of course, Trump takes “perverse” to unhinged extremes.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

It’s not unusual for a wartime president to ease up before a domestic election but usually they’re smart enough not to announce that it’ll start again as soon as the voting’s done.

That's not how executive orders work and that's not how naming things work and this isn't how political reporting should work either. This event should be covered, yes, but as another sign of the president's steady descent into complete ineffectiveness and utter insanity.
