New hottest take: I'll take up to a two-day news cycle of Trump randomly yelling about how Democrats are rats if it means that he will throw a bunch of money at DC's rat problem.

If you’ve consumed even half an hour of news today, I’m gonna need you to play at least one game of Tetris.

Stay informed, but take care of yourselves, friends.

Kirk actually had been making this list of the top topics until yesterday. I still think he hangs in the background of right wing grievance like Benghazi did though datawrapper.dwcdn.net/aiiJD/1/?utm...

Between Musk & the Trump administration, Media Matters has been squeezed to the brink. In settlement discussions, lawyers for X demanded the organization hand over all its cash and shut down — all because MM reported ads appeared on X next to antisemitic content. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/25/u...
