"It was all about business. Oligarch money. Projects. Investments. And now Ukraine is about to pay the price for those conversations.

My sources are telling me that in that Miami meeting, Kushner and Witkoff are not negotiating. They’re delivering an ultimatum."

Like many of you, I've been concerned by Trump falling asleep in meetings. But fear not, I spoke to Mike Johnson and he assured me that the president is a powerful psychic. When Trump sleeps he enters the dream realm, where he wages war on evil Antifa nightmare creatures. He also has a magic sword.

The love bomb that saved BYU: Why Kalani Sitake turned down Penn State
BYU moved quickly as Penn State closed in, rallying donors, leaning on LaVell Edwards' legacy and delivering the reassurance Sitake needed to stay.

“Donald Trump, as a rule, hates Democrats. But every once in a while, Trump bumps into a Democrat that turns out to be a kindred spirit, someone he can really relate to. They’re the ones who have been accused—and occasionally convicted—of corruption crimes.”

Trump has issued 1500+ pardons and counting…a who’s who of drug kingpins, crypto scammers, violent insurrectionists, terrorism financiers & corrupt politicians.

In Trump’s oligarchy, the rich and powerful can pay their way to reside above the law.

Miami fans should be rooting for BYU to get blown out this weekend. A BYU loss pushes the Hurricanes up right behind Notre Dame, and you'd think the H2H would come into play.*

* the committee seems to love ignoring the result of that game, so who really knows

The fact that 12% of federal judges are Black shows the corruption of DEI. The fact that 67% of Supreme Court Justices belong to a small legal cult called the Federalist Society shows the power of meritocracy.

My three-year-old was reading the Washington Post when she turned to me gravely and asked “Daddy, why did the funny drinking man murder the Venezuelans on the boat?” And when I told her “Because we need more lethality, less legality,” she started crying.

The phrase "Fox News weekend co-host" appears nowhere in the Constitution, so it's hard to imagine even the most activist judge allowing Pete Hegseth to stand trial for war crimes.

When Biden gave the worst debate performance in history, my job as a neutral reporter was to write about it incessantly until he dropped out. When Trump gave the second worst debate performance in history, against Harris, my job was to lend credence to his claim that immigrants were eating pets.

My 3yo was reading the Wall Street Journal when he turned to me, gravely, and asked: Daddy, why did the nice spanking man's TV network go bankrupt? And when I told him "because today's youth doesn't want Dr. Phil's wisdom—they just want participation trophies," he started crying.

Analysis | Zelensky says he's serious about peace. It's impossible to evaluate that claim without seeing what kind of real estate portfolio he's offered to Kushner, Witkoff, and Trump.
