I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings

The U.S. President discussed the war in Iran, press freedom, AI, and more ahead of the midterm elections.

A FlyDubai plane issued emergency signals while heading towards Tel Aviv and IDF jets were scrambled in response.
The cause: the two FlyDubai pilots had a brawl.

John Oliver lists off just some of Ken Paxton’s scandals:
“Paxton spent nearly 9 years under indictment for securities fraud... He was also accused of bribery and abuse of office by eight of his own top deputies... But wait, because I'm still not done.”

The wife of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reportedly has a “heavy hand” in national defense decisions — without holding an appointed or employed position at DoD.
We’re suing to uncover the administration’s attempt to hide documents that would reveal the extent of her role.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a new antibiotic, known as manikomycin, that may be a bulwark in the fight against drug-resistant superbugs. By attacking the ribosome in a never-before-seen way, manikomycin can evade the existing mechanisms pathogens have developed to resist antibiotics.
