I’m not going to miss the bloviating bumbling idiocy at all
President Trump said Monday he expects Cuba's government to "fall fairly soon" when asked whether he still plans to take control of the country.
"Cuba is falling. It's a failing nation," Trump said. "We'll see what happens. Cuba is going to be interesting. I would imagine it will fall fairly soon."

It's easy to recognize that @Douthat60 is killing it. But do you have the courage to recognize @bariweiss is the 🐐

If you think doctors are the problem when it comes to healthcare costs…check this:
Physician reimbursement ($/RVU) is DOWN 12%
Meanwhile…
Health insurance premiums are UP 146%
Inflation is UP 65%
Medical school debt is UP 72%
Healthcare administrator roles are UP 156%
The math is not mathing🤨
It's annual paycut season for doctors, brought to us by @CMSGov…
And, drumroll…it's a cut. Again.
-2.31% for most of the house of medicine in 2027 on the RVU conversion factor (to $32.63/RVU).
Adjusted for inflation, that's:
A one-year 4.7% decrease,
A 10-year cut of 32.6%,
A 20-year cut of 46%.
Yikes.
Thanks, @RobertKennedyJr.

The scene outside of Notre Dame Stadium is 1 of 1. Cinematic stuff in South Bend.
This is 100% true. R’s will wake up, moderate, and improve their offerings to the electorate. D’s likely to overreach (like the R’s have) and will get their hands slapped in 2 years. If D’s find a normie to run (Gov Shapiro) instead of a radical (AOC), they could rule for a while
Every two years, the people have their say.
Sometimes, the results may not be what you want. Other election nights, you may find the verdict sublime.
But regardless, when that big wheel of democracy turns, it's an absolutely awesome thing to behold!
God bless America!

Spoiler / no, you can’t. Gov Shapiro would win the general election but the anti-semites in the D primary would never vote for him. “Progressive” indeed…
From @WSJopinion: The rift between Abdul El-Sayed and Haley Stevens goes well beyond Michigan and raises a big question for the Democratic Party: Is it still possible to be a pro-Israel Democrat? writes @wjmcgurn

So freaking delusional
Mark Guiducci: “Do you believe that someone who is convicted of murder with intent should be physically confined to protect the public?”
Darializa Avila Chevalier: “But that is what happens in the day-to-day.”

On the official splits, T O Elvis came home in 11.14 / 11.61. Unheard of.
It was always a lie. The President assured Americans that they would save money and keep their doctors. Complete lie and everyone knew it. The only way to reduce Medicare cost - raise Medicare age for younger citizens / no need to be age 65 when life expectancy has increased
Affordable Care Act plan premiums will rise by 13% in 2027, the second straight year of double-digit increases in a strained market that is already facing shrinking enrollment. on.wsj.com/4jQmzqC

Yep
One professor punished for speech? An anecdote. A hundred? Cherry-picked. A thousand? Selection bias. Surveys? Bad questions. Better surveys? Methodological concerns!
I've spent 25 years watching defenders of the higher ed status quo turn every new piece of evidence into yet another demand for proof, creating a never-ending cycle of increasingly impossible standards for demonstrating problems that were already obvious 50 years ago!

I have spoken out against anti-Muslim hate in the Michigan Senate race. I will speak out just as loudly when the target is Jewish people.
Let me state a little-known fact: ISRAEL GETS LESS THAN 0.1 PERCENT OF THE FEDERAL BUDGET. That’s less than one tenth of a percent!
But there is an ad running that tells voters they can’t afford groceries because the United States gives so much money to Israel. In reality, the United States spends money in and on countries all around the world – but this ad singles out the Jewish state. The ad is as dangerous as it is dishonest.
You can disagree with how the United States spends money abroad. But telling hungry families that the Jewish state is the reason they are suffering is wrong and shameful.
Blaming Jews for people’s problems is an old story. Anybody who has read the last century of history knows where it leads. It is a dark pathway.
This ad is anti-Jewish hate and should come down immediately. Abdul El-Sayed should denounce it today.
Chris Schrepferman retweeted
This ad is vile. One thing that's so despicable about far-left hatred of Israel is how quickly they just glide past the fact that Israel was subject to horrific terrorist violence. One does not have to agree with all Israeli policies (I certainly don't) to know that this is a grotesque caricature.
New low for normalized Jew-hate in the American Democratic Party. Very sad:
Painting your political opponents as puppets of Jews, as this El-Sayed ad does, and as crazed baby-killers and money-grubbing villains who are the root cause of every bad thing not just in the world, but in your life—from wars to the price of eggs to the reason you can’t have free healthcare—is not just low-grade Jew-hate. It’s pure Third Reich stuff, translated directly from the original German.
Do you remember when Jewish Democrats in Michigan explained that they would vote for El-Sayed despite his open disdain for Jews, since there are many other important issues they need him to fight for? That anything was worth it to “defeat MAGA”?
Well, here’s El-Sayed’s answer to them: Don’t worry, all those issues we agree on, like healthcare, inflation, and climate change, I’m going to make them about Jews too! I will tell the public that the Jews are the reason they can’t have those things.

Coddling Putin won’t bring peace to Ukraine. Trump’s obeisance to the Kremlin also imperils his legislative agenda in the lame-duck Congress, writes @SenMcConnell

Solid warning to consider for the onslaught of peptides
One of the largest trials of NAD supplements ever conducted was just published.
It found a modest *worsening* in Parkinson´s symptoms on NAD supplements.
Careful with pills and diets based on hype!!
Here´s what they found and what it means🔽🔽🔽
