Must have chosen it back in early spring when, like, Bezos and Zuck and Target and everyone thought MAGA was going to be culturally dominant.

You read that white: Pantone's 2026 Color of the Year is 'Cloud Dancer'
This is the first time Pantone has chosen a shade of white. The company says it's "a lofty white that serves as a symbol of calming influence in a society rediscovering the value of quiet reflection."

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.
What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

The incredibly slow forward speed of Hurricane Melissa means Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti and the Domincan R. are experiencing Category 5 hurricane strength for DAYS instead of hours. The storm won't fully exit the Caribbean until Wednesday.

California is readying a one-time 5% tax on billionaires for the 2026 ballot that would go toward compensating for Trump's Medicaid cuts. The architects see it as a national model.
It will be announced today.

It’s clear that the main goal of the Maxwell interview was to get her to say that she didn’t see Trump do anything wrong.
Which can only mean that there is something in the files that suggests that he did. Why else would she need to say that?
The interview is more incriminating, not less.
