Ed Zitron used AI to create the very first chart in this piece. It made a critical error, which he did not notice because he just learned about bonds last month. THAT is the danger of non practitioners relying on AI output, you don’t know what you’re looking for. The chart is completely inaccurate.

"Donald Trump will not let me speak at a ribbon-cutting ceremony for Palmer Luckey's weapons manufacturer" is not a very moving or effective rallying cry, I gotta say
ms.now
A private company invited Gov. Wes Moore to a Baltimore event. Trump had him removed as a speaker.
The president asked Anduril Industries to remove Maryland Gov. Moore from the speaking program at an event celebrating a defense tech investment in a working-class community.

Seeing how many respectable liberals, and even leftists, in New York media continued to speak warmly of Reihan Salam is what made me first realize that some journalists have no criteria for moral judgment other than whether someone is personally nice to them. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/n...

Reihan Salam loves New York. He loves the free market. And he’s very worried.

I give you 8,000 words on Florida's Nuisance Alligator Program, a system in which Floridians can call a hotline to report a gator they believe is acting threatening. A licensed trapper will then arrive to yank the offending gator out of the place it has taken residence, so it may be "harvested."

Giants OLB Abdul Carter on why he responded critically to Jaxson Dart’s decision to introduce Donald Trump: www.usatoday.com/story/sports...
"First off, I'm going to say that some things are bigger than football, and this is one of those things. Jason is one of our leaders," Carter said.
. "He's the face of our franchise. He not only represents himself and what he does, but he represents all of us, and that goes for anybody who wears a Giants uniform.
"But if he chooses to align himself with a man like President Trump, it's my responsibility based on what I believe and what I stand on to not only show my teammates that I'm against that, but to show the world.

New: I spoke to a dozen sources about John Fetterman's dwindling inner circle; his closest confidant is an unpaid adviser named David Safier. Jokingly referred to as "chief" by staffers, Safier has coordinated calls w/Bibi and sits in on big meetings. Fetterman's actual chief of staff quit yesterday

Comic panel of Donald Duck and a wide-eyed young Mickey Mouse. Donald's speech bubble: "Democrats should do a huge middle class tax cut to address affordability." Mickey's speech bubble: "Fool that you are, for you treat taxation as a burden rather than the means by which our burdens are eased. Behold a civilization rich in private wealth yet starved of public provision, where every man owns what his grandfathers could not imagine and yet trembles at the thought of how he will weather an illness or loss of livelihood. Will you fight for an affirmative vision of broad contribution and universal benefit? Or will you perish like a dog?"

Thinking again about how Ro Khanna and a handful of goo-goo types said liberals should give DOGE a chance on government reform, and then DOGE pushed through illegal aid cuts that might literally kill more people than the Holocaust.
