Naturally, when executives and coaches around the league heard about a frustrated-sounding Joe Burrow, the same question floated around: “Does he want out of Cincinnati?”
The answer is no, I’m told.

Billionaire Mark Cuban posed pointed questions to Medicare for All advocates: Who in government runs the program? What do big hospital chains do - opt out and serve only the rich? Would you accept mandatory primary care gatekeeping before seeing specialists?
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.
What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?
Who in the USA gov runs the program?

I agree with your statement Mark. I use Ai for a lot of menial tasks that used to suck up 5-10 hours a week. But I can't help but think of my 2 boys (15 & 13) and if this is truly the future. So a vast amount of graduates will all essentially do the same job for different companies.

Democrat Eric Gisler has won the seat, which was previously held by a Republican who resigned this fall.
This is a red territory: Trump won the district by 13% in 2024.

Republicans have tanked the economy and turned the country into a corrupt autocracy. But my NPR-loving neighbor has been giving me a hard time about my gas-powered leaf blower. I've never felt more politically homeless.

A recap of tonight's special election in TN-07 (plus a WAY-TOO-EARLY model of the 2026 midterms).
A swing of 13 points would put Dems over 250 seats in the U.S. House. A more reasonable scenario—say, D+6—still gives them the House, and maybe the Senate.

What the special election in Tennessee's Seventh District means for the 2026 midterms
Republicans held a Trump +22 seat — but by only 9 points. A swing half as large would give Democrats the U.S. House in 2026, and put the Senate clearly in play

Let’s see if one single pundit who said there was some great realignment of American sentiment with this last election, based on what they saw on the Nazi-owned platform overrun by foreign actors, offers any retractions or corrections for their gullibility.
It’s hilarious and revelatory that a bunch of giant MAGA/America First X accounts are actually based in Eastern Europe and Nigeria.
