Trump cut short his Q&A session in Oaks, Pa., yesterday to – I’m not making this up – stand there and sway to the music. For, like, half an hour. “Let’s not do any more questions. Let’s just listen to music,” he told the crowd. “Who the hell wants to hear questions?” It’s becoming clear that the GOP plan is to elect this husk of a human and then replace him with that younger husk of a human, JD Vance.
What does it take to induce someone to work for Trump? In the case of his campaign manager, Chris LaCivita, the answer is “$22 million.” I’m starting to get the impression that every MAGAt is just another grifter looking to score.
We don’t think of India as an autocratic country run by murderous right-wingers, but Canada knows better. It expelled a bunch of Indian diplomats because, Canadian police say, agents of India’s government are killing and harassing Sikh activists in Canada. Who does Modi think he is, Putin?
A Space X rocket carrying a probe that will explore Jupiter’s watery moon Europa launched successfully yesterday. Don’t hold your breath waiting for its findings – it won’t get there until 2030.
The floor’s yours.
