Extraordinary NYT story:

Trump’s DOJ pressured out another US Attorney in WESTERN Virginia for finding that a grand jury probe his bosses demanded was unwarranted.

They wanted a case discrediting the Russia probe — evidence be damned. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/u...

BREAKING

The US State Department has revoked the visas of citizens from Argentina, South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, and Paraguay for comments they made in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

- An Argentine national who said Charlie "devoted his entire life spreading racist, xenophobic, misogynistic rhetoric" and deserves to burn in hell.
- A South African national who mocked those grieving Charlie saying "they're hurt that the racist rally ended in attempted martyrdom"
-A Mexican national who said Charlie "died being a racist, he died being a misogynist" and stated that "there are people who deserve to die."
- A Brazilian national who said "Charlie Kirk was the reason for a Nazi rally where they marched in homage to him" and that he "DIED TOO LATE."
- A German national who celebrated Charlie's death + wrote
"when fascists die, democrats don't complain."
- A Paraguayan national who said "Charlie Kirk was a son of a b**** and he died by his own rules."

Someone once told me the origin of that term began in Vegas where they would drive 80 miles in any direction and dig a hole six feet deep.

Any idea if there's truth to that?

Whatever you do, don’t share this 1949 graph comparing polio cases and ice cream purchases by month in the US with the current HHS Secretary. He might get some crazy idea that ice cream causes polio.
Welp — removing ice cream was recommended as part of an anti-polio diet. 🤦‍♂️

A screenshot of a line graph showing the trends of polio cases and ice cream sales month-by-month throughout 1949. While the lines show similar trends this is a mere association. People tend to buy more ice cream as temperatures rise throughout spring and summer, which coincides with transmission increases of polio due in part to flies that can transmit poliovirus buy coming contact with virus-containing feces or sewage and transporting it to food. Just don’t think about it …🤢

Tomorrow, six more states will be able to view their 2026 health care costs.

On average, they'll find their premiums have doubled.

It's not complicated: Washington Republicans spiked health care premiums for 22 million Americans.
