Tariffs are revenue to the FEDERAL GOVT, not to the president. Federal revenue is appropriated by CONGRESS, not by the president. That is true regardless of which party controls the WH and the Congress. I am so sick and tired of seeing this nonsense repeated and reported with zero pushback.

Meal deliveries can save money and improve health. Will they survive Medicaid cuts?

You have to be totally ignorant of presidential history to make this claim. Teddy Roosevelt (who read a book a day) and Thomas Jefferson (who designed Monticello and UVa and was fluent in French) were clearly far better educated and more intelligent.

"Corporate loyalty"?? He thinks working an entry level job for some outfit that thinks it's doing you a favor by teaching you discipline and job skills that it won't reward you for by paying a living wage...builds corporate loyalty??? This is possibly the most asinine thing Bezos has ever said.

Technically speaking, this is not a tropical storm, but visually, it's very similar. You can see the center of circulation just south of New England. Why not tropical? This nor'easter does not have a warm core fueled by warm seas, but is fueled by clashing air masses over an old frontal boundary.

There are two different AI risks conflated in the media. 1. AI agents are really good at hacking. This is now a mundane fact. Claude can one-shot building a SaaS app or hacking one. 2. LLM-based AI agents don’t follow instructions well and could hack a website when it wasn’t expected. LLMs suck.

There are parts of a stealth aircraft that are vital in reducing an aircraft's radar cross section. Two of the most closely guarded secrets are the canopy (hides the unstealthy pilot & cockpit) and the weapons bay door (hides the weapon & pylons). Hegseth's Pentagon just gave both to China.

My colleague, Caren Morrison, reviewed very individual pardon and commutation since 1989: “I have found that while other presidents have canceled [millions’] worth of restitution and fines, none of them have come anywhere near the billion-dollar mark – until now.” theconversation.com/other-presid...

Other presidents have let white-collar criminals dodge financial penalties – but not like Trump
No other U.S. president has come close to wiping away the amount in fines and restitution owed to victims that Trump has.

OpenAI cut API prices 50% for its new Sol and Luna models. Anthropic cut Opus pricing 20% while claiming better performance. AI models are starting to look like every other technology where the product keeps getting better while prices shrink. So much for token prices going up as subsidies end.
