Marco Rubio runs 10-15 points behind Vance in the Midwest and no campaign message is going to change that because it is a fundamental attitudinal misalignment.
But please, by all means. I could use a laugh.

The United States has fired more interceptors to defend Israel than Israel has.
"The US fired an estimated 609 ballistic missile interceptors to defend Israeli territory from October 2023 through September 2026, based on analysis of Pentagon budget documents, media reports, and open-source intelligence."
"This does not include the interceptors the US fired to protect its own military assets while waging war on Israel’s behalf, including the 30 Patriot interceptors US troops used on June 23, 2025, to shoot down 13 missiles fired at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar (Iran’s telegraphed retaliation for the US attacks on June 21), and virtually all of the approximately 1,800 Patriot interceptors the US fired in the first seven months of the Iran War."

James O’Keefe on the Felony Charges for Exposing Fraud in Minnesota:
This is not political. It is fundamental. It is about whether citizens still have the right to question their government. This is now a landmark First Amendment case, and every American’s right to speak truth to power has been put on the line.
Weaponized lawfare does not work against me. It has always backfired on the people who come after me. Most people find criminal charges and lawsuits stressful; the process becomes a form of punishment. But I love this process because it gives me the opportunity to expose injustice at the highest levels. My foundation will be indemnifying members of the Justice League, including @camhigby for their lawful reporting.
I’m calling on all Americans, and especially all journalists, to stand united on a message to the prosecutors in Minnesota: the politics of fear will not prevail in the United States of America.

The Houthis Are Iran’s Strategic Allies, Not Its Proxies
As I explained in detail in my recent article on the #Houthis, Iran arms and supports the group and benefits significantly from its operations against Saudi Arabia.
But the Houthis are not simply an Iranian proxy. They are an independent actor engaged in a strategic alliance with Tehran, one in which both sides have become increasingly dependent on each other.
Even if Iran were to pressure the Houthis to stop their attacks, it would be unlikely to change their calculations.
On the other hand, if Saudi Arabia were to accept the Houthis’ demands, the Houthis could agree to de-escalate their confrontation with Riyadh regardless of Tehran’s preferences.
Ultimately, the Houthis make their own decisions based on their own interests, and treating them as merely an extension of Iranian policy fundamentally misunderstands the nature of the relationship.

.@TheNationalNews: Iran reportedly told Mecca Pact officials it lacks leverage to halt Houthi attacks, instead urging them to secure US backing for 2-week regional truce & gradual Hormuz reopening. Talks also focused on a regional non-aggression framework

We let an African come to America and the first thing he does is try to rewrite our history to say that he's an American, whites don't exist, and Earth belongs to blacks.

James Talarico, in his own words: 'Prison is violence.' In 2021, Texas passed SB 6 to stop violent offenders from walking out on cheap bail. Talarico voted NO. Jon Rosenthal voted NO. It passed 85-40. Two days of early voting left. Texas can't afford a Marxist in charge.

Traditionally (as of 2020) disparate impact doctrine has only ever been applied to women and racial or national minorities. This is a plain violation of both the 14th Amendment and the CRA of 1964.

Jaxton Tayte Collins, a 21-year-old Montana man, faces up to five years in prison after telling an Indian man to “go back to his country” during an encounter in downtown Helena.
Prosecutors have charged Collins with felony malicious intimidation or harassment and misdemeanor assault, although he disputes the allegation that he physically shoved the Indian man.

BANNON: Russ Vought vehemently disagrees with me on USAID. But Breitbart reported that all you did was shift the operations over to the State Department.
We've cut virtually nothing out of USAID. The entire Serbian operation is still being funded. The gutless Rs on Capitol Hill and certain people in the administration didn't want to cut it.
I don't need to be lectured by OMB. Open up the books. Bring Mike Benz forward and show us what's still being funded under different names.
The cuts have been performative. We need to shut it all down.

I welcome President Bell’s response and take him at his word that this job was posted without his approval or authorization.
But why does it take someone like me to catch this?
UF has administrators, lawyers, and an immigration compliance office. If this posting lacked the president’s authorization, how did it reach publication? Where was the internal oversight? Did they try to sneak it through and hope nobody would notice?
I’m glad my reporting prompted a response, but taxpayers deserve accountability even when there isn’t a viral tweet exposing or demanding it.

UPDATE: There’s no clean national census of nurses and doctors using fake degrees, but we have spent two months investigating this, and the documented cases cluster into two very different magnitudes.
Nurses: roughly 7,600 fraudulent diplomas and transcripts, with about 2,274 people confirmed to have used them to sit and pass the NCLEX, then get licensed and hired. That’s a rock-solid number.
Physicians: upwards of 10,000 people in hospitals and private practice hold fraudulent foreign medical degrees.

AI 真的能像科学家一样，自主发现未知的物理规律吗？
最新研究 LongChang（龙场）构建了 14 个物理规律被改写的模拟世界，让 12 个大模型自主观察、提出假设并设计实验。
📊 结果令人意外：
GPT-6-Astra：规律发现率 16.7%
其余 11 个模型：全部 0%
增加实验预算也并未改善发现率
一直以来，无法跳出框架思考仍然是 AI 饱受诟病的问题之一
AI 距离真正的自主科学发现，还有很长的路要走。

Since 2022, 72% of the world’s AI compute has ended up in the US and about 10% in China.
And the US share keeps growing. It acquired around 60% of new compute each year from 2022 to 2024, then 72% in 2025, and 78% in the first half of 2026.
This data comes from our interactive AI Chip Imports explorer, which estimates and visualizes national compute shares using customs records.
It’s the latest piece in our project to map the AI chip supply chain, which also provides data on the components used to manufacture chips, sales volumes, the data centers that house chips, and the companies that own and use them.
More on this new data and what we’ve learned below.
ALT Stacked area chart: share of cumulative new AI compute (H100e) by country, 2023 Q3 to 2026 Q2. The US rises to about 72%, China about 10%, followed by the EU, Malaysia, Japan, India and others.

The U.S. absolutely *dominates* when it comes to compute - the essential ingredient to scale and deploy Intelligence.
AGI is coming and it will be unevenly distributed — as a function of compute (and electricity.)
Let me remind you that @elonmusk’s Colussus sites will soon have more compute than the entire EU + UK.
This is the result of POLICY choices.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! THIS is the video that Minnesota leftist prosecutors charged Cam Higby with a FELONY over
He dressed as a Muslim and asked if he could vote with ZERO ID under Minnesota's "vouching" system
"Do we need ID?"
WORKER: "NOPE!" 🤯
HIGBY: "I have 7 other people who I live with."
And the worker says those people can be vouched for to, and "NO ID FOR ANY"
This man exposed a corrupt election system and their answer is to criminally charge him, despite NO BALLOTS BEING CAST in this case
Minnesota is becoming like a 3rd world nation. Its elections are corrupt and voters need to elect Republicans to make it stop!

This is 100% First Amendment-protected journalism.
Minnesota Democrats who charged crimes for this must face a federal civil-rights investigation.
Paging:
@TheJusticeDept
@CivilRights
@DMNnews
🚨 I wore a burqa to a Minneapolis polling station and the poll worker was going to allow me to VOTE IN A WOMAN’S NAME.
She was also going to allow me to vouch for another unregistered “muslim” in that persons name.

🚨CRIMINAL CHARGES FILED🚨
I've obtained the documents regarding the criminal charges Hennepin County is targeting @JamesOKeefeIII with.
James O'Keefe is charged with felony unlawful voting and identity theft.
He is facing 10 years in prison, if convicted.
It's important to note, O’Keefe and Cameron Higby entered multiple polling places while disguised BUT NEVER SIGNED THE OATH OR CASTED A BALLOT.
Higby is also charged.

FIELDS MEDALIST TESTED IF HE'S OBSOLETE
timothy gowers took an open problem from a new paper on additive combinatorics and handed it to chatgpt 5.5 pro.
no fancy prompts. no setup. just the problem statement.
the model thought for 17 minutes. then wrote a complete latex preprint in two.
it took a bound that had been exponential for decades and brought it down to polynomial. the construction was something nobody had tried on this class of problems before.
gowers asked isaac rajagopal to review the work. rajagopal wrote the paper the model was improving on.
his verdict: the key idea is "completely original" and "quite ingenious." "the sort of idea i would be very proud to come up with after a week or two of pondering."
the model spent 17 minutes on it.
then gowers pushed further. gave it the harder generalized version. under an hour, a stronger result. exponential to polynomial again.
gowers on his own mathematical contribution to the whole thing: "zero. i didn't even do anything clever with the prompts."
the result is a solid chapter in a combinatorics phd. publishable mathematics that a graduate student would spend months producing.
a fields medalist. one of the best combinatorialists alive. sitting there copy-pasting prompts while a model does doctoral-level research in front of him.
his conclusion: "the lower bound for contributing to mathematics will now be to prove something that llms can't prove."
he gives the profession until 2029 before it's "transformed out of all recognition."
seventeen minutes. zero human math. a result that takes months by hand.
this was may 2026. five months ago. the model that did it is already outdated.
