Squeaky boredom.
The DC military parade looked sad
The video described by Rolling Stone sums it up:
"Though rock music blared on TV, the parade itself was eerily quiet. One video…shows tanks squeaking past nearly silent crowds, sounding like a grocery cart in need of grease."

Economist Brent Neiman explains the idiocy of Trump's tariffs formula.
First, the idea that a trade imbalance deserves tariffs:
"The Nobel laureate Robert Solow explained why when he quipped, “I have a chronic deficit with my barber, who doesn’t buy a darned thing from me.” "

At least 75% of the men Trump illegally deported to El Salvador have no criminal records. These men have been abducted and sent to a hell-hole Salvadoran “prison” that is the the equivalent of a torture-laden concentration camp. DEMAND freedom and justice for these men.

NIH scientists have a cancer breakthrough. Layoffs are delaying it.
A big step forward in cancer therapy has been slowed by layoffs and new restrictions at the National Institutes of Health, where it was developed.

We didn’t win the Florida races, but we saw an average 19 point swing in our favor, which is in line with the other special elections we’ve had since trump took office.
This will have republicans shaking in their boots.
With these margins we can flip 30 seats next year.

The Southwest measles outbreak has led to a surge in hospitalizations, straining hospital capacity across the region.
Hospitalizations are particularly surging among unvaccinated children experiencing severe respiratory complications requiring intensive care.
