Whatever “blue object” he was biting on at the U.S. Open yesterday, the picture joins my presidential portrait gallery.
Confusion/delusion of 79-year-old POTUS to Google's CEO at the WH tech confab: said A) repeatedly the Google-favorable decision in the antitrust suit brought by Trump's DoJ was "yesterday" and that B) "Biden was who prosecuted that lawsuit, you know that, right?" Both false.
Eric Adams as U.S. ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a phenomenal idea for a reality show. For instance: ep 3 meets fellow ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle in Athens, ep 5 in Riyadh she takes belly dancing class & performs for him, ep 6 viral TMZ video of them making out,
Most brilliant pop-culture commentary by any politician about politics ever.

Great campaign launch ad for a Democratic candidate for the House in a very flippable Pennsylvania district.

The Met’s printed fall exhibit guide has a show called Fanmania opening in December. Intriguing! But nothing on its site or elsewhere. So I asked Claude. Nothing. Curious.
The US blowing up a Caribbean boat allegedly carrying 11 Venezuelan drug traffickers made me think of Reagan’s 1983 Grenada invasion, and not just because it happened close to that island. We now see Grenada was the 1st not last US military operation by a showman just for show.
I’m honestly surprised by this. That he wouldn’t prefer to have Zohran win. Much better WWE for him. nytimes.com/2025/09/03/nyr…
