Gupta: Nobody takes a Montreal Cognitive Assessment with this type of frequency. Doing it as frequently as he’s doing makes no sense. I don’t know any neurologist who would recommend doing a MoCA with that type of frequency. It’s not the flex that I think he believes it is.

Trump on Tim Walz: "I think the man is a grossly incompetent man. I thought that from the day I watched JD destroy him in the debate. I was saying, 'Who's more incompetent, that man or my man?' I had a man and he had a man. They were both incompetent."

While Cabinet members praise his energy and fitness, Trump sleeps.

No satire in the history of film and television has ever been this on the mark.
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

Mexico’s security chief confirmed that 17 family members of cartel leaders crossed into the U.S. last week as part of a deal between a son of the former head of the Sinaloa Cartel & Trump — the family members of Ovidio Guzman Lopez, who was extradited to the United States in 2023.

And for those wondering, A LOT of pro-life Christians have kids with Down Syndrome and say their decision to not abort made them opposed to abortion. (Though there are also plenty of pro-choice parents of disabilities and plenty of people with disabilities are pro-choice).

The new Azalea Fresh Market is one of the coolest things I've seen in Downtown Atlanta 😍

It's a full grocery store with bread, meat, produce, cleaning products...& zero parking, just as it should be for this location. Best wishes, you beautiful thing!

Betcha he starts a special group for military boys called The Hegseth Juveniles, HJ for short.
"Pete Hegseth is planning for the military to sever all ties with Scouting America, saying the group... is no longer a meritocracy and has become an organization designed to "attack boy-friendly spaces..."

Of course Hegseth would attack them for the improvements they've tried to make 🙄

Wizened Millennials sneering at Gen Alpha: I told you the old ways are best

(Gen X, petting its moldering set of the 1983 World Book Encyclopedia: Soon. Soon.)
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.
