Is America fumbling the World Cup Test already? “The #WorldCup is going to expose a lot of cracks in the system. … there’s a profound difference between pulling off the event vs. maximizing the opportunity.” - Travis Murphy, CEO, Jetr Global Sports + Entertainment

Resignations. In any normal world Walz, Gabbard, Ratcliffe, Hegseth at minimum should be offering their immediate resignations. They've been in public office less than two months and already have violated their oaths, endangered national security, potentially criminally.

Coup?! I cover wars. Militaries. Actual coups. Where citizens violently rise up and kill each other for power over each other. This is alarmingly irresponsible language, even for Fox. Inflammatory. Baseless. Dangerous.

A rich man can buy the entire U.S. military? Seems important.

JUST IN: UK military intelligence says so many Russian troops are dying by the Ukrainian resistance that it's likely struggling to conduct offensive operations and is seeking replacements...

It’s not funny or acceptable or honorable or manly. Will Smith’s attack (over a joke) was unhinged and violent and also a crime: assault.

Fact check: False. There is no War Department. There is no war secretary. The Department of Defense has not changed its name, which requires action by Congress. Trump's team just keeps calling it by their preferred identity, basically a made up nickname.

Justice Dept is bringing the thunder. "People are going to shocked" with stories still to come out. It will be harder for Republicans to minimize and deflect what the FBI and DOJ just said was possibly the largest investigation in its history.

Commander in Chief Biden spent this Sunday 1) at church, 2) at his Army veteran son’s grave (it’s the anniversary of his death), 3) and then giving a Mem Day speech at Veterans Memorial Park near the Delaware Memorial Bridge.

Joe Biden ignored the Rolling To Remember rally today. Not surprised. I guess if there’s no young girls to flirt with from the stage he’s no longer doing events.

So… They’re relocating undesirables out of cities and into rural camps. And now they just took control of the train station. Um… y’all…

I tested positive for Covid on Monday. It sucks. I’m double vaxxed. Home with all the flu-like symptoms, exhausted and can’t smell or taste. Not serious, but not fun. Get the shots. Stay masked. Consider limiting close-quarter events. I let my guard down and am paying the price.
