Trump: "I know more about inflation, I know more about everything than anybody in this room, anybody, anywhere in the world. Well, there's a woman sitting right over there. She's a housewife. But she's very good…She perhaps knows more than I do, but I actually don't think so."

ESPN has moved on to James Franklin. The announcers were giving him a tongue bath in the final minutes last night. Historic win, program setting win, he's turning things around, etc. Then VA Tech missed the game winning FG.

The NYT dropped 5 major Senate polls this morning — and they tell you exactly why the GOP is freaking out about the Senate. Alaska: Peltola up 50/43 Texas: Talarico up 51/45 Ohio: Brown up 49/46 Kansas: a 45/45 tie Iowa: Hinson up 48/47.

Yes, many (most?) military members vote by mail. The thing is you don't need a day off to do that. Given what a clown Hegseth is and the damage he and Trump are doing; it's worth considering that this will lead to more Dem votes.

I don't think this is about Deslauriers. Nadeau would replace Robinson as he makes no sense on the 4th line. Now, you could argue Robinson would be a better fit than D-Lo on the 4th line, but is he wasted there? Brindy is not messing with the 2nd and 3rd lines right now either.

Apparently she missed a $50 payment on a larger debt of ~$3,000. This may have been court ordered and resulted in an order for arrest being issued for non-compliance. Either way it's a terrible look for Marshall.

In a normal administration counterintelligence agents at the FBI would be investigating this photo. In this administration, the FBI director is in the photo.
Michael Weiss: Why, that’s Ali Abdelaziz is on the far left. Manages a lot of Russian, Belarusian and Chechen MMA fighters including Khamzat Chimaev, who is close to Kadyrov. Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence.

So fuc*ing infuriating and sad. The CDC used to be the crown jewel of the world's scientific firmament. Other countries came to us for help fighting deadly diseases. Its disease detectives learned what caused illness and helped change practices to prevent them. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/26/h...

The Hurricanes, by which I mean Dundon, are really screwing this up. The season starts next week and the games are not available to most people in NC without buying a streaming subscription. The team needs to stop money grubbing and get the games on all cable/sat providers.

Exclusive: In late 2024, FBI agents were looking at Sen. Susan Collins’ role in a massive illegal bribery scheme alleged by a former federal contractor. Then Trump gutted the FBI and DOJ, leaving no one to carry on the investigation – it’s dead. 🧵

Trump misstating and touting a meaningless deal over Greenland, while the entire Middle East security architecture falls apart due to his own actions, is emblematic of this administration’s foreign policy.
