In the wake of the horrific attempt to shoot Donald Trump, Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen of Axios reported Monday that advisers close to the former president say he “plans to seize his moment by toning down his Trumpiness” and by “dialing up efforts to unite a tinder-box America.” Because Trump has suddenly stared death in the face, the report suggested, he has attained benevolence toward his political foes, which will manifest itself at this week’s GOP convention with a “unifying” display. As Tucker Carlson told Axios: “Getting shot changes a man.”Tell that to Trump himself. Only a few hours...

(MA) Get ready to meet three little balls of fluff who are ready to fill your heart, and life, with love. Brynn, Bambi, and Bubbles Bath are 6-week-old Great Pyrenees mix sisters who were found as strays living under a porch. Sadly, their mother, also a stray, did not allow herself to be caught and brought into rescue alongside her babies. Despite that, the three puppies are healthy and happy in their new foster home. They have a bright future ahead of them, assuming YOU adopt them! Or, maybe you don't want pure joy, cuteness, and fluff-love in your life.

In January 2022, when I was 32, I spit into a
tube for genetic testing. Rather than mail the tube off to 23andMe or another
ancestry service, I FedExed my saliva to Ambry Genetics, a company that
assesses hereditary cancer risk by looking for mutations on genes that are
associated with malignancies.I
underwent testing 20 years after my mother died of lung cancer at 49 and 18 years
after my father died of prostate cancer at 50, and after multiple medical
providers recommended that I see a genetic counselor. They were concerned not
just by my parents’ fates but by my extended family’s medical history, which is
riddled with...

Donald Trump shocked nobody on Monday when he announced J.D. Vance as his running mate. All signs had been pointing toward the Ohio senator in recent weeks, and it’s hardly surprising that he would choose a sycophant and relative neophyte to share the stage with at this week’s Republican convention. Yet the decision does in fact represent a serious departure for Trump, one that ought to raise more concerns about his plans for a potential second term as president.Trump has a singular obsession in life, and that’s to win—at all costs, by any means. If he has to cheat, like...

The Scary Message Trump Sent by Choosing J.D. Vance

Article III of the Constitution, which defines the roles and powers of the court system, says: “The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour…”Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is taking the Framers at their word; this week, she introduced articles of impeachment against both Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.While the Republicans on this Court have engaged in a decades-long steady torrent of corruption—from Chief Justice John Roberts’s wife making over $10 million hustling lawyers into law firms that practice before the Court, to Clarence Thomas’s million-dollar vacations and mother’s rent-free life, Samuel Alito’s paid...

Shortly before 3 AM, people in the Chicago area may have felt their houses shake as a 3.4-magnitude earthquake occurred about 60 miles west of the city. (CHICAGO) The United States Geological Survey (USGS) reported a 3.4-magnitude earthquake around Somonauk, IL. Somonauk is in DeKalb and LaSalle Counties, 64 miles west of Chicago.

Did You Feel the Earthquake?

A Fox News analyst said people would question why exactly Donald Trump had picked J.D. Vance as his running mate, considering his lack of experience and former status as a Never Trump Republican. Vance has talked his fair share of smack about the former president, saying Trump could be “America’s Hitler,” accused him of committing serial sexual assault, and calling him “one of USA’s most hated, villainous, douchey celebs.” But as Trump has amassed more power in the run-up to November, it seems that Vance has finally changed his tune. To many, though, it’s unclear why Trump would want to work...

Trump Chose J.D. Vance Because He “Sucked Up Effectively”

Never mind about Project 2025: A Republican congressman just wants to go back to the good old days of 1960, before “the angry feminist movement” ruined things for men. In a speech on the House floor Thursday, Representative Glenn Grothman railed against government programs such as subsidized childcare, calling out President Lyndon Johnson’s “war on poverty” as taking “the purpose out of the man’s life, because now you have a basket of goodies for the mom.”“They’ve taken the purpose of the man to be part of a family,” Grothman said. “And if we want to get America back to, say, 1960,...

Republican Rep. Goes on Unhinged Rant About Women “Emasculating Men”

Joe Biden had many lucid moments at his Thursday evening
press conference, but the idea that we’re going to judge Biden day by day on
the latest speech or press conference is terrifying, for two reasons. First, it
sets a ludicrously low bar that is bound to favor standing pat with Biden as
the nominee. This is because every one of these appearances is going to be
judged on whether he was better than he was at the June 27 debate, and every
time, the answer to that question is almost certain to be yes, because he can
hardly be worse. But is “He was better than...

Conservatives have done the United States a huge favor by explaining in detail what they’ll try to do if Donald Trump is reelected. Project 2025 , a “presidential transition project” of the Heritage Foundation, helpfully lays out how a group of former Trump officials would like to transform the country into a right-wing dystopia where the rich thrive and the rest of us die aspiring to be rich.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

MAGA personalities raged at CNN when it refused to allow a Donald Trump propagandist to smear journalists on air. They exploded again when CNN announced that the debate would be fact-checked. We think this provides an unexpected glimpse into what Project 2025’s implementation might look like. This thought was driven home by a must-read thread from writer David Roberts about Project 2025’s true aims. So we talked to Roberts about what MAGA’s hostility to neutral journalism portends for a second Trump term—one that wrecks the professional, fact-based civil service and transforms government into a tool for manufacturing propaganda. Listen to this episode here.
