Via Kyle Griffin:

New: Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin is calling on Alito to recuse himself from all cases involving the 2020 election.

"The Court is in an ethical crisis of its own making, and Justice Alito and the rest of the Court should be doing everything in their power to regain public trust."

Oh dear me. I just visited the Mandela Effect subreddit to read a post and comments about how "the sun used to be yellow, and now it's white," and I think a lot of these folks are not doing well.

If someone describes feeling like everyone, including their family and friends, is avoiding a topic and trying to deceive them, well... "scientists replaced the sun, and it's a conspiracy" is not the most obvious conclusion.

Nice to see Disco cracking the top 10 of original streaming shows. I like to think the powers that be pay attention to that.

Must be great to Zoom with the mayor and give him money to do your bidding. Probably gets a lot done for you.

I'm not buying games on release, and a trailer isn't a game, but I love what they are setting up here.

As bad as the last ones have been just from a format and neutrality standpoint, regardless of the personalities involved: Do we really want Biden/Trump debates?

Still say they're not going to happen. But I don't think we should even bother with the circus. I think we're pretty good on where each stand policy-wise.

I just imposed a series of tariffs on goods made in China:

25% on steel and aluminum,
50% on semiconductors,
100% on EVs,
And 50% on solar panels.

China is determined to dominate these industries.

I'm determined to ensure America leads the world in them.
