Florida Gov Ron DeSantis has discussed potential roles in Trump’s administration, including attorney general, defense secretary or even a future Supreme Court seat, Axios reports.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is Green, the other is Blue's mother, Red. Red turns around to look at Green, who listens. Red: Can you take the thing to the other ones at that one over there? Green stares back at her, blankly. Red's look of determined confidence does not falter. Green: ...The what over where? Red: Yes. Later, Blue and Green are walking together. Green: I adore your mother, but I can see where you get it from. Blue: Get what?

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is sitting by himself, reading a book, as he hears a strange rumbling sound. Blue looks up from his book, looking confused. Blue, thinking: What kind of a person rearranges furniture this late at night? The noise repeats, and Blue turns his head to look towards the direction it came fron. Blue, still in thought: There it was again. Investigating the source of the sound, Blue finds Green sleeping on the floor. The noise he heard was Green snoring. Blue, thinking: Oh.

Epstein wrote of Trump: "i have met some very bad people ,, none as bad as trump. not one decent cell in his body.. so yes – dangerous."

Marge tells Piers Trump tried to cover up the Epstein files, even the government shutdown was part of it — and when Trump called her a “traitor” and her son got death threats Trump had no compassion for her and told her it would be her fault if her son got killed. 😳

I stopped for gas in the Ottawa valley.
A guy was standing beside a pick up the size of an aircraft carrier.
"Goddamn price of gas," he said.
I pointed to the war In Iran.
He thought this was ridiculous.
"It's f--king Carney."
If the PM thinks he's going to win fans lowering the gas tax... lol.

I am dubious of some of these studies claiming AI is rotting people's brains when it hasn't been around very long. It seems much more realistic to me that we have been, for decades, creating a systemically mush-brained cultural condition that lends itself perfectly to mass AI psychosis

Amazon will pay $20.5 million to settle allegations that two of its Oregon data centers helped contaminate groundwater.

This is exactly why communities across the country are organizing to stop data centers — and winning.

Never doubt your power to change the system.

This Tax Day, every American should know:

Because of Trump, Amazon avoided paying over 90% of the taxes it owed.

That's $17.5 billion that should be going to health care, schools, child care, and more.

But instead, Jeff Bezos gets wealthier.

Congress needs to tax the rich.

If you're already frustrated by people's general lack of ability to problem-solve or think contextually, genAI use is probably going to make it worse. Save your cognition by using your brain!

Green: I've got my notes, coffee, laptop, all I'm going to need. Green sits down in front of his laptop, looking at his work with determination. Green: And now I shall sit down right here and not move before all my work is done. Green watches as Blue begins to wiggle. Blue: And I shall distract you with an enticing dance. Green: Why? Blue: Why not?

FOX NEWS: You have the authority to go ahead and release more Epstein files, do you not?

ACTING AG TODD BLANCHE: No. We have released everything. We are not sitting on a single piece of paper. If we didn't release it, it's because it was not responsive to the law.

Dem Threatens To Hold Pam Bondi In Contempt After Deposition No-Show

As expected, Pam Bondi today ignored a House committee's subpoena and didn't show up for her scheduled deposition on Epstein files.

Top Dem on the committee warned he's prepared to "move forward with contempt proceedings immediately" if Bondi keeps blowing them off www.huffpost.com/entry/latest...

Italy’s PM Meloni criticizes Trump’s remarks about the Pope as unacceptable and voices support for the pontiff, while also announcing a suspension of military and defense cooperation with Israel.

"Pope Leo is WEAK on Crime" is objectively a funny thing to write.

Reporter: Why did you attack Pope Leo?

Trump: I don’t think he’s doing a very good job. He likes crime I guess. We don’t like a pope who says it’s ok to have a nuclear weapon. We don’t want a pope that says crime is ok. I am not a fan of Pope Leo.

Donald J. Trump 0 D @realDonald Trump So, there you have it, the meeting went well, most points were agreed to, but the only point that really mattered, NUCLEAR, was not. Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz. At some point, we will reach an "ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO IN, ALL BEING ALLOWED TO GO OUT basis, but Iran has not allowed that to happen by merely saying, "There may be a mine out there somewhere," that nobody knows about but them. THIS IS WORLD EXTORTION, and Leaders of Countries, especially the United States of America, will never be extorted. I have also instructed our Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in International Waters that has paid a toll to Iran. No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas. We will also begin destroying the mines the Iranians laid in the Straits. Any Iranian who fires at us, or at peaceful vessels, will be BLOWN TO HELL! Iran knows, better than anyone, how to END this situation which has already devastated their Country. Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti Aircraft and Radar are useless, Khomeini, and most of their "Leaders," are dead, all because of their Nuclear ambition. The Blockade will begin shortly. Other Countries will be involved with this Blockade. Iran will not be allowed to profit off this Illegal Act of EXTORTION. They want money and, more importantly, they want Nuclear. Additionally and, at an appropriate moment, we are fully "LOCKED AND LOADED," and our Military will finish up the little that is left of Iran! President DONALD J.
