Slander is spoken; libel is written.
But this isn't either of those. It's detailed reporting from a respected outlet with damning evidence.
And "most consequential Commerce Secretary in modern history" is as impressive as "shortest NBA player from Luxembourg"

aspirin poisoning could explain a lot
Trump: "I take an aspirin a day. I don't know if it works but psychologically I need it. It thins the hell out of your blood I guess ... They want me to go down to the 80. I take the 386. I don't know what the hell it is. It's a monster. They said, 'Sir, you don't need that!'"

Even after all these years, the Republican party usually abides by the Hastert Rule - that a bill is only brought to the floor if it has the support of the majority of the majority - and pretty much no one in DC thinks it strange to regularly refer to the work of a pedophile.

"Jailed for violating banking laws", much like Hitler met his end after losing a battle with suicidal ideation.
The Bari Weiss-ification of CBS News continues. Dennis Hastert was convicted of the sexual abuse of high school students under his supervision as a high school wrestling coach. Banking rules violations were his transfers of hush money payments which he misdescribed and which allowed

Jan Crawford: Well, many people had organized their lives around Roe v. Wade.
Alito: No, they didn't. Women merely had an "abstract" interest in "ideas about the kind of society that they were going to live in."

AI is now the biggest investment in all of US history as a percentage of GDP.
Datacenter construction is up, all other construction is down.
"AI Is Squeezing Out the Rest of the Stock Market," reported WSJ 2 days ago.
We basically bet the whole economy on the most optimistic visions panning out.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

The chintzy-looking M64 clone console of the N64 by a company named ModRetro has been released, I think, I don't pay attention that closely to shit.
But as the great @frankcifaldi.bsky.social posted before, it is our civic duty to push back against this company and shun ANYONE who doesn't.

His vocabulary is so limited it’s like reading a transcript of Koko, the gorilla who knew sign language, if Koko were a white nationalist
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
