I caught a kid flagrantly cheating (brought in a vaguely on-point AI generated answer to a thematically predictable question and copied from it) on a blue book exam in my class last week. Once confirmed (easily), I emailed him letting him know he was failing the class and (1)

I've got a bone to pick (or an egg to crack). In the good old days, eggs -- white, factory produced -- could be counted on to crack the same way every time. Crack the shell, dump the egg in the pan. (1)

Elon Musk is officially the first person to ever be worth over $600 billion.
We have built an economy that allows one guy to hoard $600 billion—largely tax-free—while the rest of us struggle to afford gas, groceries, and rent.
Tax the damn rich.

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

In 1999 Ryan Lizza called to discuss Kosovo on background (there was a war going on there). When I told him what “felčanje” meant in English he offhandedly mentioned that he couldn’t wait to slip it into an article. It only took him 26 years but BOOM.

President Trump would like the Commanders’ new stadium named after him, though no formal talks have occurred, ESPN reported. Trump will be in attendance at the team’s game on Sunday — the Commanders expect the topic may arise during his visit.
Trump Stadium, home of the Commanders? The president is not opposed.
No formal conversations on naming rights for the Commanders’ new D.C. home have been held.

As with everything Trump does, whether it’s wrecking the economy, building his own SS, or killing foreign aid, the East Wing can’t be rebuilt to be what it was.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)
