I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk talk obsessively about rooting out fraud at the Social Security Administration. The agency’s inspector general recently found that less than one per cent of benefits distributed between 2015 and 2022 were improper.

Changing the name of “The Gulf of Mexico” to “The Gulf of America,” is not a stoke of genius. Other than benefiting mapmakers the worldover, plus computer code writers and Trump’s ego, it will have absolutely no impact on anything. So why not call it what it actually is: “The Gall of America?”

If my school teacher had said that to me I would have said “Show me the evidence.”

The brazen murder of a CEO in Midtown Manhattan—and the cheering reaction to his execution—amounts to a blinking-and-blaring warning signal for a society that has become already too inured to bloodshed, @adriennelaf.bsky.social writes. theatln.tc/ZRcsrreK

Coach Campbell met with our WWII veteran guests, all Michigan natives, before our #SalutetoService game Sunday.
