The fact that the president's doctors are giving him the dementia test over and over again -- tracking his decline, most likely -- and that the president keeps bragging about having to take that test should be a five-alarm fire.

These kinds of "stack-ranking" (forced-distribution) performance reviews were implemented at Microsoft many years ago to disastrous consequences. There was a huge loss in valuable, talented personnel, a dramatic drop in morale, and the company got rid of it in 2013.

I'm not naive enough to actually believe this will happen, but Democrats could be preparing, right now, lists of impeachment charges against (at a bare minimum) Hegseth, Kennedy, Mullin, Patel, Blanche, & Trump, as well as Bondi, Bovino, & Noem (still worth doing!) that rely purely on public facts,

I can't remember anything like this either. If anything, I'd say we're looking at a midterm result that makes 2006 -- where Republicans lost 31 seats in the House and 5 in the Senate -- seem tame by comparison.

Shame on Mt. Sinai for capitulating with this settlement, which violates that legacy of inclusion, their own Hippocratic oath, and New York’s human rights laws. (3/3)

That's a big kick in the guts. Payrolls is much weaker, and the U.S. lost -23k jobs in March, well below expectations of +80k. Huge downward revisions, too: May now +63k (instead of +129k), June now +20k (down from +53k). Very bad news. Revise down your views substantially.

WOW - Trump crashes out & cuts his interview w/ Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged "You're either crooked or you're stupid. I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her" "I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads

Rather troubling that the president is so unwell as to be promoting AI-induced visions of himself as Jesus while beefing with the pope, but it’s made even more bizarre because it’s happening while the VP is Catholic and saying nothing
