Breaking News! Code: y-Axis Alert! Yesterday's Nino 3.4 preliminary sea-surface temperature anomaly set a new record high, at 3.48°C above the 1991-2020 baseline. To clearly show this anomaly, the y-axis max was raised to 4.0°C. Attention historians: this is gobsmackingly bananas.

TRUMP: “Have you seen the crowd outside? 22,000 people watching. We love you out there. They’re watching the Jumbotrons.” 📌 The entire population of Corinth, Mississippi, is approximately 14,000 people. The man can’t even lie right.

Unfortunately, the beef industry is much more complex than that.”

Corporate profits are at record highs — but revenue from corporate taxes has plummeted thanks to the tax cuts in Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill. Meanwhile, workers’ wages are stagnant and their share of the nation’s income is at a record low. Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

Abdul El-Sayed is a Rhodes Scholar, with degrees from the University of Michigan, Oxford, and Columbia. 84% of Rhodes Scholars are Democrats or Independents, compared with just 14% Republicans. It’ll be great having Abdul in the Senate.

Many in the right will tell us that we can't have nice things because of cultural differences. But they're the only ones in our society saying that. The ethnic minorities are not saying that. Who is saying that?

Trump’s campaign “red state blitz” is turning into a traveling disaster. Hecklers, angry voters, Vivek’s disgusting ad, Ashley Hinson’s weak-ass embrace. Republicans are supposed to be closing strong in red states. Instead, they’re unraveling and the backlash is becoming the story.
