My sources are telling me Talarico is in a mental health facility. His campaign has stopped actively planning events in the vital homestretch of the campaign.
If this is true, this is actually a time to pray for Talarico. We should, of course, savagely mock his smug, awful campaign advisors, by all means...and while yes, of course, this would be disqualifying for Talarico's aspirations to be a Texas Senator, we must hold empathy for anyone undergoing crisis. Campaigns are brutal, and not everybody is cut out for it. You need very thick skin. As much as I don't want Talarico anywhere near government, I also don't want wish him harm, and no political office is worth having a breakdown. His awful advisors are at fault for this. They pushed him to be something he isn't, and it didn't work.
I'm praying that this isn't true, and he's OK. You want to win these fights on the battlefield of ideas, not the minefield of poor health.

Amazon just blocked me from using Grok Bot to maintain my seller accounts.
I have ALS. I am a full quadriplegic, and I cannot click through Seller Central myself. I use Grok Bot because I am disabled and I need it to do the work.
On March 4, 2026, Amazon updated its Business Solutions Agreement and added an Agent Policy. Amazon's own seller notice says it may restrict AI agents that access Amazon services. Those agents have to identify themselves as automated systems, follow the policy, and stop if Amazon tells them to.
I understand a rule against bots that pretend to be people. This is not that. This is a disabled seller who cannot run the account without help.
Should I sue Amazon for discrimination under the ADA? Not yet. The sensible first step is to ask Amazon for a reasonable accommodation, an exception that lets me keep using the bot because of my disability. A lawsuit is the last step, not the first.

This should make you angry.
This is Bonnie Pierce, a 38-year-old mother of three from St. Paul, Minnesota. Her house caught fire. She and two of her children escaped, then realized her toddler was still inside.
Bonnie went back in, found the child, but could not get out. She shielded the child with her body. She died from her burns. The child survived.
A GoFundMe for her family raised about $42,000.
By comparison, more than $1,000,000 was raised on GoFundMe for Lindsay Clancy, who was charged with killing her children.
It is a sad reflection of the society we have become.
RIP Bonnie.

Maria Bartiromo was fired from Fox on Thursday because she informed the White House about Fox’s secret instructions not to promote President Donald Trump’s election conspiracies on air, according to Status. Fox News had issued written instructions to senior employees to steer coverage of Trump’s address away from his claim that China interfered with the 2020 election. Fox claims discussing the network’s confidential information violated her employment agreement.
Buckle up! This is about to get interesting and won’t work out well for Fox. Maria is very beloved.

JUST NOW: President Trump says the federal government needs to get TOTALLY OUT of the welfare business, and make the STATES fund it
He says it'd cut down on fraud by 75%!
"The LEARING centers... The federal government runs this stuff! We should be running our military and running our country, but the states have to run all of that stuff and you'll cut it down by 75%! And it will be run better!"
ABSOLUTELY! States need SKIN in the game!

All of these dorks are on payroll of Disney/Marvel. Why don't you prove you're not just political hacks, and give back your millions in blood money you've made from that "harmful" merger? Tell us how much you hate the Disney/Marvel merger, guys!
Recognize the op, folks.
Actors Benedict Cumberbatch, Alan Cumming and Benedict Wong have penned an op-ed in The Guardian calling for the U.K. to block the Paramount–Warner Bros. merger, explaining that the deal threatens to inflict “immense harm on the British public.”
“As actors and public figures who have spent our careers in the arts in Britain — working with British crews, on British stages and sets — we have a responsibility to the public who support, enjoy and consume the art we make… The U.K. is being threatened by a media merger that would harm our workers, our culture and the public — but we can stop it.”

Sophie Cunningham just became one of the first current American female pro athletes to come out against men playing in women’s sports in an @espn profile article. Good for her. Rock star. Many others should follow. She’s the anti-Megan Rapinoe.

BREAKING: WE THE PEOPLE OF FLORIDA DEMAND A GOP PRIMARY DEBATE BE HELD FOR THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF FLORIDA.
Debates among competing electoral candidates have become a campaign centerpiece in elections nationwide.
Many states have developed a debate tradition and usually civil society groups have been critical in making these happen.
Debates help voters make informed choices and encourage candidates to focus on policy issues, a conviction so widely held that these candidate showdowns have become mainstays of the electoral process in many places.
We, the legal and registered Voters of Florida, are calling for all the Florida GOP gubernatorial candidates to stand up and be held accountable to the Voters of Florida and debate (at least once, more if time permits)
Florida is too important of a state and our nation is at a historical turning point and we must make certain our choices for Governor of Florida are based on open and transparent election processes.
Therefore, We The People of Florida DEMAND a GOP gubernatorial DEBATE prior to the primary elections.

The left should do the same but will almost certainly not adhere to any fair process. But WTPOF challenge them as well.

Any system where there is early disclosure and then continued bespoke counting is clearly subject to fraud. You know not only who’s winning but the exact count needed to catch up. Read the Caro books on LBJ!
