“The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” which CBS canceled over the summer, won the Emmy for best talk show for the first time. It was the second of two standing ovations that Colbert received at the ceremony. nyti.ms/4n7hh8W

Families can’t catch a break. Health insurers are hiking premiums at the *highest rate in 15 years* and UnitedHealth admits Trump’s reckless trade wars are part of the reason. Tariffs = higher costs, higher bills, less care. That’s #Trumpflation.

Trump’s “victory” at the grocery store? A joke. Eggs, chicken, OJ, bacon, bread, coffee: every staple is climbing. Families feel the squeeze while his tariff taxes drive #Trumpflation. He didn’t win on groceries and he’s making sure you *lose* at the checkout line.

Poor RFK jr., he always looks anxious and sounds guilty.

GOP Senator Barrasso just pushed back against RFK Jr.'s attacks on vaccines. What RFK Jr. has done at HHS is not "Make America Healthy Again." It's "Making America go back back hundreds of years to a time before we believed in science."

How can the Congress and Supreme Court condone the actions of a President who threatens states and corporations? I guess we have to follow the money. Trump personifies the greedy outcome of a compromised government.

A lot of the stuff this administration is doing is against the law

President Trump says he doesn’t think “you need a ceasefire,” during his meeting with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, a stark reversal from his comments going into his meeting with Russian President Putin.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com Vladimir Putin’s history of reported theft and corruption “is not grand strategy at work. It’s grand larceny,” our columnist Bret Stephens writes. “It’s the essence of what Putin is about — and surely helps explain Trump’s long-held admiration for him.”

nyti.msOpinion | A Half-Baked Alaska SummitThe meeting is a bad idea, but there’s an opportunity for Trump to punish Putin’s thievery.

Insanity in America. President Darth Vader.

Tuberville on ICE and Border Patrol: "If they're shot at, they need to shoot back. We need to take advantage of what's going on right now and make sure we take our streets back. That's the voters for the Democratic Party, these people that are breaking all these laws all over the country."

Yes, so true, in those aiming for 'too big to fail'. It is the wrong direction.

Our need to win is turning America into a losing nation, Anne-Marie Slaughter argues. The author of 'The Idea That Is America' explains how the United States lost its moral footing and what it will take to regain it.

Amir Ali became a federal judge weeks before Trump’s second term began. What came after was a level of political and legal pressure unmatched in the modern era. We followed his first seven months on the bench. https://trib.al/wGixp6H
