Steven Rattner: Trump’s net worth has nearly tripled in his second term, reaching $6.5 billion.

His administration is the most brazenly self-enriching in American history.

Happy 80th birthday to the fab Tim Curry, pictured with Rocky Horror creator, Richard O'Brien as Riff Raff & Patricia Quinn as Magenta. I once interviewed O'Brien who said that Frank n' Furter was a reflection of his own diverse sexuality. For moderns who like absolutes -sometimes there aren't any.

Trump dropping his sassy little ad-libs in while reading from the bible on television. Drawling "and that's really so true" and "it's really amazing" as he plods through a verse chosen because Pete Hegseth's pastor thinks it justifies pre-emptive war. What a cool age we're in.

I’m glad Trump and Hegseth “totally destroyed” Iran’s air defense systems last week so none of our aircraft would get shot down.
