In January, the Trump admin invoked Avignon in threatening the Vatican. On Easter, Trump threatened to wipe out an entire civilization. On Orthodox Easter, he posted an image of himself as Christ. JD Vance, who became Catholic yesterday, scolds the Pope on theology.

Unions want to build data centers because those are big jobs. But nobody wants them in their neighborhoods. We don't have to choose between jobs and exploitation - we can build big things that actually benefit people.

Trump doesn't handle rejection well. By women. By voters. And by fellow Republicans. Now he's taken a keen interest in #IndianaPolitics - intervening in races where sitting GOP State Senators voted against his gerrymandering scheme in December.

Jackson Franklin has been running for the Democratic nomination in Indiana's 5th Congressional district for well over a year - ahead of the rest of the candidates in many ways. How does he differ from a now-crowded field?
You can't turn on any sporting contest without seeing that America has a serious gambling problem — but bet-on-anything sites like Polymarket and Kalshi really take it to the next level. And opportunities for the world's worst people to capitalize on insider knowledge abound.
