Steve Hilton, MAGA candidate for California governor, can thank Donnie Dementia's endorsement for a minus-2 drop in the polls. Awesome!

Warren: "Why try to end independence of the Fed? Bc Trump's economic failures are causing him political problems, he wants the Fed to artificially juice the economy Having a sock puppet in charge of the Fed would also give the president access to the Fed's powerful authorities to enrich himself"

Desperate to rehabilitate his tattered reputation, Tucker Carlson does a mea culpa: “I’ll be tormented for a long time by the fact that I played a role in getting Donald Trump elected. And I want to say that I’m sorry for misleading people.” To that, I say FUCK YOU Tucker Carlson.

If Donnie Dementia wants you to vote no, then you must defy the madman to actually save your country.

Let's go, Virginia voters! Do your patriotic part in an ongoing effort to save our democratic republic. The vote is expected to be close, so every single vote is urgent.

Totally delusional. Mounting signs of deepening dementia. The world is not safe from Donnie Dementia, and yet MAGA worships him like a diety.

But, hey, Donnie Dementia, his family and his cronies all got much wealthier due to the illegal war — and the rest of us are paying the price

All in all, 32 states are holding supreme court elections in 2026. These races will decide over 60 seats. Two states already resolved their contests—conservatives won in Arkansas, and liberals in Wisconsin. Nineteen states are holding regular elections for their supreme courts this year, meaning races where candidates can challenge incumbent judges or run for an open seat. How those work is straightforward; think of what you’re used to seeing for Congress or governor. But 13 states are holding retention elections, which are simple up-or-down votes, with no challengers, where voters decide if a judge who is already on the court should stay in office.

All in all, 32 states are holding supreme court elections this year, deciding over 60 seats. These courts could determine key issues including abortion access and redistricting across the country.

Our new guide explores what’s at stake in each state:

Trump did this

Tim Cook's legacy will be enshittifying Apple's software, abusing their market dominance, and then playing apologist to fascism.

Under his leadership they burned billions on a car that never drove, and the only major attempt at a new product during his tenure (the Apple Vision Pro) was a total dud.

BREAKING: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer has RESIGNED.

Her exit follows a tenure rocked by multiple scandals—including an investigation into an alleged affair with a security staffer and accusations of drinking on the job.

Keith Sonderling will serve as Acting Labor Secretary.

What hogwash!

8. This is a novel kind of monopoly power. Economists Zach Brown and Alexander MacKay call it “algorithmic coercion.” And its impact “can be worse for consumers than if firms explicitly coordinated on high prices.” The FTC says Nessie generated $1B+ in extra profit in 3 years.

5. One is an “anti-discounting” algorithm that matches competitors’ price changes instantly to the penny. When a rival offers a discount, Amazon matches it; when rivals raise prices, Amazon follows. This denies other retailers a way to win customers by lowering prices.

How Amazon’s AI Algorithms Raise the Prices You Pay Amazon can steer market-wide prices without ever colluding—exposing a gap in antitrust law that the FTC is now fighting to close.

1. Amazon has built powerful pricing algorithms that have learned how to steer prices upward — not just on Amazon, but across the web. I have a new piece on how these algorithms work, and how they help sustain Amazon’s monopoly.

Sun Sentinel staff predictions for Dolphins’ first-round picks in the 2026 NFL draft Pass rusher, offensive tackle, receiver or cornerback? Here’s who the Sun Sentinel predicts the Dolphins will select with their two first-round picks in the NFL draft.

Some interesting predictions, and I tend to agree that the Miami Dolphins will trade the No. 30 pick to pile up more picks.

And so is the witness :)
