Fascinating security-cam footage of fault rupture in magnitude 7.9 earthquake. At 0:11 the shaking begins, and at 0:14 you can see the earth beyond the gate suddenly SHIFT ABOUT SIX FEET (2m) RIGHTWARD along the fault line. Note also structures toppling in the distance. (Video, 26 secs.)

A 13-year-old second-hand plane the Qatari royal family is dying to get rid of, which would require renovation and maintenance costing US taxpayers far more than the plane is worth. Donald not only is shamefully dismissive of the Constitution, but is the prisoner of an outdated world view.

The president may be thirsting for a new four-engine jumbo jet, but many governments and royal families are unloading their fuel-guzzling palaces in the sky.

Australian voters have now rejected Trump-style politics much as Canadian voters did. The center-left Labor Party gains seats, defeating the right-wing Liberals in a landslide. And Liberal Party leader Dutton loses his seat in Parliament, just as Conservative Party leader Poilievre did in Canada.

Two things about this New York Times lead:
1. Use of the word “tizzy” is insulting and trivializing at a time when people have rational concerns about Trump’s intimidation.
2. Why would anyone believe what the Trump regime says?
NYT lacks the seriousness required in this crisis.

Longtime member of the Wall Street Journal's editorial board calls for Trump's impeachment and removal from office as the only way to "restore America’s standing with creditors and trade partners” and preserve the status of the US dollar as the world's de facto reserve currency.
Trump Impeachment Urged by Wall Street Journal Editorial Board Member
According to longtime columnist Holman W. Jenkins Jr., Trump's on-again, off-again tariff threats almost makes it appear he wants to be impeached.

Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin people actually called the frivolous stunt participants "a team of explorers." What the hell were they "exploring"? They were barely even looking out the windows. Too busy taking selfies and promoting themselves. More depressing pop-culture crap.
