TIL if you toast sugar for a couple of hours at 300F it gets much less sweet (and tastes better and has a lower glycemic index) while retaining its magical baking properties so you can use enough to do this tapioca protection trick and get perfect cherry filling
Toasted Sugar Recipe
Toasting sugar in a low oven allows it to slowly caramelize. The result is a sort of "granulated caramel" that can be used in any recipe as a one-to-one substitution for plain sugar.

to be clear, Trump's position is that violence against cops is unacceptable, but pardoning people convicted of violence against cops is the right thing to do because hey look over there!

All republicans are now MAGA. If you identified as a republican and don’t want this label than you must leave your party. It has been hijacked and needs to be destroyed. You can leave now or go down with the ship.

Felon says what?
REPORTER: Do you intend to continue to sell products that benefit yourself personally while you're president?
TRUMP: Well I don't know if it benefitted. I don't know where it is. I don't know much about it other than I launched it. I heard it was very successful. I haven't checked it.

Everything that Trump said and did today -- all of it -- was entirely predictable based on his campaign, character, and first term in office. If you're surprised, you were either misinformed or not informed enough.

NEW: Trump now says he is not confident he can keep the ceasefire in Gaza, telling reporters it is "not our war."
He says that Gaza "has to be rebuilt" and "some beautiful things" could be done with the land because it is "on the sea" and has "the best weather."
