Cosign. I saw it when in London a few months back and it was magical for adults and kids alike and producers? The merch was flying off the shelves.

Yes, he’s very stupid and very evil, but it’s important to not lose sight of the fact that he’s also very gross.

Immediately after Ukraine took out two of the five data centers run by the Russian tech giant Yandex, pro-Trump and pro-MAGA posts on American social media sites plummeted. The same happened to posts boosting Germany's far-right AfD. Russia is engaged in MASSIVE election interference.

Dirty politics is a global business. "A small number of influencers circulate a sensational accusation. Prominent political allies repeat it and engage with it. Musk joins the conversation. The claim gains visibility before the public has any opportunity to evaluate the evidence."

Not a great sign when your 12-person private fundraiser includes someone who hates you enough to leak damaging audio
The audio of Mr. Paxton was shared with The Times by an attendee who recorded him speaking at a private fund-raiser in Washington attended by roughly a dozen people. The person, who opposes Mr. Paxton’s campaign and provided the recording to The Times, was granted anonymity because Mr. Paxton’s remarks were private.

Vance says he doesn’t know when Iran conflict will end — it’s up to Iran
