I'll never get over the number of older people who believe protesting affordable housing is a legitimate retirement hobby. Imagine telling your grandchildren you spent your time organizing against apartments and families who wanted to live in your neighborhood. It's giving White Citizens Council

What’s happening with the US economy is not unlike how things happened in Atlantic City: the burden of any of Trump’s failures will fall on US citizens this time.

Someone on Polymarket has just placed a $100k bet that the US will strike Iran today. $4m payout if true.

My story on Elon Musk cutting safeguards at xAI is on the front page of today's @washingtonpost.com. I’m also among 100’s of reporters laid off.
