Lutnick says Trump's policies are "worth it" even if they lead to recession
The president's tariff announcements have rocked the stock markets and fueled concerns of an economic downturn.

Time for a master thread on all the reasons we are headed for a (likely very bad and prolonged) recession. First, tariffs. So much stove-touching you can’t believe it. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/lut...

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Lebanese Muslim who owns a Sydney fruit shop, risked his life to disarm one of the Bondi Beach shooters.
His courage gives me hope amidst the horror and darkness. Muslims and Jews are not enemies. Our futures, in the Middle East and beyond, are intrinsically bound.
A true hero.

Because it's relevant to some of Trump's comments today, I'll say that I was not far away, on the floor at RNC/Cleveland in 2016, when the moment captured in this charming photo occurred. It's a real pic, before the AI era.
Saw it myself and have not forgotten it.

From the Oklahoma U student paper: the school is now saying it will automatically suspend faculty (with pay) in response to student complaints

Exactly, and acquiring non-semi-auto weapons in general has quite loose rules. Usually you just need to provide a reason for which you can say "Hunting" and then specify some private regional/rural property where you're doing so. A childhood friend used to go hunting with his dad, same rules.

Also worth noting however that these shooters did not have semiautomatic weapons (like AR 15s), which Australia banned after Port Arthur. It would have been MUCH deadlier without this gun control law.
For those who may not be aware of things in Australia the mass shooting in Bondi Beach today where 12 people died is the largest such event since the Port Arthur massacre in 1996 which saw 35 people killed. This is a very big deal.

Fox is blaming RFK Jr. for the measles outbreak. They promoted him, supported his nomination, and now they are turning on him. 🙄

It's because she doesn't know how to be the head of CBS News. Just no clue what a person in this role does. Similar to how Pete Hegseth and Sean Duffy don't know how to be cabinet secretaries.
