Zelensky: "When our strikes reached Yandex’s data centers, it suddenly became a little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. A lot of people noticed it. There was less hate, less division, and fewer provocations. Because there were fewer bots. It’s pretty clear where those bots were."

Trump is losing to Iran. He's failing to curb inflation. He's failing to bring back factory jobs. He isn't boosting economic growth. He's empowering Russia and China. He's world-historically unpopular. But he can scribble "Lake America" with a big crayon on a map. Is that MAGA's consolation prize?

Susan Collins has spent the bulk of her career as the ~50th vote in the Senate for whatever she wants to be the ~50th vote for. She is therefore more responsible than any other Senator for what the Senate has and has not done over the last couple decades.

“We don’t tax wealth, we tax income. For people who have a huge amount of property and are ultrawealthy, they can avoid having very much income.” Unrealized gains are, essentially, ­income—just ask the bankers who accept them as collateral. But Congress has never touched them.

A New York Times review of the game applauded its “stunningly realized depiction” of Japan, adding, “Shadows offers more, digging deeper to deliver a fascinating, grounded picture beyond the wild, natural world.”

But some people online criticized the game for having “gone woke” by creating a Black samurai named Yasuke. Elon Musk, the tech entrepreneur, said Shadows was an example of how “D.E.I. kills art,” using an abbreviation for diversity, equity and inclusion. Ubisoft reminded players that its games were works of fiction, even as Yasuke was an actual historical figure.

Among the many bad things about our present era is that the President's abject capitulation to Iran is undoubtedly the best-case scenario. Once he has started breaking something, his continued attention to it only ever makes the situation worse, and the cost of exiting only gets larger.
