These people are behaving as if they're not going to lose power ever again.
The interior of Kristi Noem’s new billionaire-class luxury jet is complete with two bidets and a wet bar with a wine chiller. It will be purchased on our dime from the slush fund Congress approved in the One Big Beautiful Bill.

Inside Noem's flying palace. Plus: Pentagon demands obedient, deadly AI. The race to deploy untested nuclear reactors. Lawmakers move to rein in presidential pardons. And remembering Robert Duvall.

I didn't think it was possible, but my esteem for Kamala has decreased because of whatever this is.
Apparently, the KamalaHQ accounts are rebranding as "Headquarters," a "new Gen-Z led progressive content hub."

I don't think these rich people have ever set foot on a rural hospital (or a rural town) before.
Dr Oz on rural healthcare: "There's no question about it, whether you want it or not -- the best way to help some of these communities is gonna be AI-based avatars"

I will direct you to the first person you should blame for this: John Glover Roberts Jr.
Trump: "I have determined that the fastest way to bring The Trump Kennedy Center to the highest level of Success, Beauty, and Grandeur, is to cease Entertainment Operations for an approximately two year period of time, with a scheduled Grand Reopening that will rival and surpass anything."

The allure of this Hispanic agents behaving like animals (even more so perhaps in their operation in Minneapolis as opposed to Texas) is that they get to inflict their hate on another race group. This time the Somalians, next time the Haitians. Just extremely fucked.
BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

I don't think the reasonable Republican (if such a person still exists) can discount what Trump 2.0 is like. This is the manifestation of what the majority of the Republican party wants, even if it's helmed by a former Democrat (Trump).

I saw a tweet from somebody saying that Trump's FDA under this loon is fairly okay and I'm wondering if that's not overstating the case
Makary: "Why are medications prescription only? If you think about it, if a medication is safe, doesn't require laboratory test monitoring & can't be used in some nefarious way, why do we require a prescription? Most of the world does not do that. There's something magical about price transparency."

She does realize that she's never going to be leader of Venezuela absent a revolution, right? And even more delusional that Trump would help her do that since he doesn't care at all about democracy, right?
WASHINGTON (AP) — Venezuela's Machado says she presented Trump her Nobel Peace Prize to recognize his commitment to her country.

What is in the water in the US man
Update — Here is what the new apparent CBS News segment "Whiskey Fridays with Tony Dokoupil" may look like:

Call-to-action to their base because they're not defending ICE hard enough.
for the second time today, Leavitt calls Renee Good "a lunatic" and then she storms away from reporters

Today has been really revealing of what motivates a lot of people.

I guess shame used to be a thing
"Marco Rubio, we salute you!"

A real thing that was said by the CBS Evening News anchor tonight.

That Free Press lady has got to be the most obtuse person. Her argument consists of deflection, semantics, tautology, going in circles and just all around bad-faith approach that makes one feel like talking to a wall.

Did Trump mistake Ukraine for America because this is nonsensical
Trump: "Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. It sounds a little strange but President Putin was very generous in his feeling toward Ukraine succeeding, including supplying energy, electricity and other things at very low prices."

These gullible anti establishment liberals going all "Z gotta do better vetting" when Z himself came from that world lmao. It's a feature, not a bug.

Man, I can't wait for the bubble to pop, this is ridiculous

CJ Roberts was too calm for my liking, he definitely will overrule Humphrey's Executor AND also think it won't bite him in the ass.

People hate ads, but this might turn them off of AI. It's one of those "you never knew how good you had it until it's gone"
McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad

The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

Is it possible that Ryan Lizza was making fun of her by making that silly garden metaphor? (I may be reading too much into things.)
Oh man! This paragraph is brutal. The best thing about this review is it's not trying to be mean. It's just listing how bad the writing is.

I generally like The Atlantic, but this is pathetic and gross.
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?
