Professional news: After spending 6 (nonconsecutive) years out of the past decade at the Daily Caller News Foundation, today is my last day in this incomparable newsroom. It's been a wild ride and I've loved every minute. I'm going to do something completely different for a bit. Watch this space.

How does he have a tweet for everything. His legacy will never die.
Buying stock in Chipotle, did the math I think could be part owner by now judging by my Burrito Bowl consumption. @chipotletweets #yum

The all-caps longhand is all the proof I need that Tom Smith is an engineer. Amazing letter to the FEC: "I could not file this form electronically because I have had no success logging in."
Tom Smith, the candidate who dropped out of the #MI08 Republican primary but is still poised to defeat Trump-endorsed Amir Hassan, sent this handwritten note to the FEC less than a month ago:

It would be so funny if Maine Dems defended Troy Jackson using Doctor Oz’s advice to the dude who couldn’t stop smashing his cousin: “If you’re more than a first cousin away, it’s not a big problem.”
RELATIVE ATTRACTION: We can confirm that Troy Jackson and his longtime partner are second cousins. They have two children together

The transformation of the Houston school district since the state takeover in 2023 is a pretty incredible story. I sat down with the state-appointed superintendent Mike Miles @HISDSupe to understand how his focus on performance turned the district around.

Simply too on the nose that a place busted for selling 300,000 oxy pills had this issue with its sign.

Thousands of people angry at being told to evacuate America 250 on the mall. At one point the crowd thought Secret Service was letting people back in and rushed to the bleachers.

A teen boy on puberty blockers goes to a urologist because he was wetting his pants in class Also his pee was strawberry colored from blood and skin flakes Boy and his mom ask if the incontinence and bloody urine might be side effects from puberty blockers The transition-friendly urologist says nah, transition drugs are totally safe, the problem is you're holding in your pee *too much* A few months after stopping the puberty blockers, the boy stopped peeing blood The urologist was charged this year for allegedly having thousands of pornographic pictures of children

This is from the FTC's lawsuit filed yesterday against World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), which for years pushed to remove age minimums for sex-change procedures. dailycaller.com/2025/08/04/e… The full sworn statement from Jonathon Skinner can be found here: storage.courtlistener.com/re… Be warned, it is not for the faint of heart.

Rex Crofton, who allegedly attacked two Albuquerque Jewish sites with a crowbar, is going to remain in jail until trial after @DAGToddBlanche urged court to deny release. In texts to friends at some point before the alleged vandalism, he wrote "I'ma diaper proud Nazi" -- but he meant "die a proud Nazi."

I am severely disappointed Bob Odenkirk skipped the most important right, as enumerated in the Third Amendment.
Bob Odenkirk returns as Saul Goodman from 'Breaking Bad' and 'Better Call Saul' to celebrate America's 250th birthday

How can a federal judge in Illinois block a Florida AG's lawsuit in Florida state court against a medical association promoting transing kids? Can "a federal district court sitting in Illinois reached across the country to enjoin the Florida Attorney General"? That's what AG @JamesUthmeierFL -- and 22 other state AGs -- are wondering.

Uthmeier sued the American Academy of Pediatrics in December over its guidelines that basically had few age minimums for sex-change procedures on minors. Florida has passed laws restricting so-called transgender care. But AAP sued Uthmeier, in federal court, to block the Florida lawsuit -- and has so far been successful. Last week, the federal judge in Illinois (where AAP is headquartered) ruled Uthmeier's case was "weak" and vindictive, and so he blocked it.

The proposed memorial commemorating veterans who fought and died in the global war on terror is shaped like a horseshoe. I don’t know what it’s supposed to mean and neither do you (that’s the point of modernism). But it’s odd the memorial commemorating veterans of a war everyone liked when it started and everyone hates now is shaped like a horseshoe, with a weird twist in the middle. Again, I am not interpreting the proposed memorial since I don’t know what I am supposed to take away from it. But it is very clearly shaped like a horseshoe.
The Global War on Terrorism Memorial Foundation (@GWOTMF) has released the design concept for the GWOT Memorial which will be built on the National Mall in Washington, DC. Full announcement video here: youtu.be/qMbJt0-hHNg

It will never cease to be funny that the far-left DSA candidate is a former Marine who was in Afghanistan as a security contractor 8 years ago, was madly in love with a Heritage Foundation staffer just over a decade ago, defends the Second Amendment, and has a Nazi death camp tattoo. But he is an avowed communist peacenik now for sure, for sure.
Chris Hayes: How is it that your ex-girlfriend was texting people that you had a Nazi tattoo in August but you didn't know until October? Graham Platner: They didn't tell me that

One could say that SPLC was literally in bed with neo-Nazis.

What a thing to say.
JUST NOW: Trump tells me he is not considering American’s financial situation when negotiating with Iran. “The only thing that matters when I’m talking about Iran, they cannot have a nuclear weapon. I don’t think about American’s financial situation. I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing: we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That’s all.”

Here's a grainy photo of three dots. We have no idea if it's aliens, but keep looking! You will figure it out, anon!
Now this is content. "Actual site photo with FBI Lab rendered graphic overlay depicting corroborating eyewitness reports from September 2023 of an apparent ellipsoid bronze metallic object materializing out of a bright light in the sky, 130-195 feet in length, and disappearing instantaneously."
