    UNSAFE TO FLY?

    Secret Service said it was TOO UNSAFE to fly to Oklahoma. President Trump's response? "GET YOUR ASSES IN THAT CAR." Elsewhere- Media continues to downplay the FlyDubai incident and avoid the word nobody wants to say. Cast it as a workplace dispute with bad optics!

    WEASEL WORDS, WARRIOR WORDS

    Re: latest on the Flydubai hijacking yesterday-Much of the press is writing it as a workplace stabbing, an "altercation," a mental-health mystery, and a think-piece on cockpit-door policy. The weirdest part isn't the near-disaster. It's the vocabulary. Aand...the same outlets that won't say hijack will absolutely say the Defense secretary, Pete Hegseth is a threat.

    BLOOD AT 30,000

    A Dubai–Tel Aviv Flydubai flight turned into a mid-air knife fight. Co-pilot stabs the captain. Plane drops like a stone. Hijack code goes out. Passengers smash into the cockpit and pin the attacker before the jet can become a crater. Heroes in coach. Israel calls it terror. The airline says: wait for the investigation. .

    GOLDEN PORTAL

    Evil Trump just thanked evil Musk on stage for helping birth America.Gov — an AI-powered one-stop front door for the entire federal government. Type like a human. Get answers like the state finally learned manners. Passports, Medicare, name-change after the wedding, campsite at the park. One chat. Official sources only.

    PICK YOUR FUTURE

    SpaceX just put the biggest rocket ever built into Earth orbit on the first try that counted. Then they brought it home early because they're not idiots. Meanwhile, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told a room full of college kids that the same class of people who just punched a reusable 400-foot steel tube into space are coming for their internships, their tap water, and the lights. The only thing standing between the kids and destitution is… the government.

    FACE TIME

    President Xi's already in the air. Last night was the state dinner to end all state dinners — sea bass, Reagan china, red blossoms, a bald eagle statue, and a guest list stuffed with Musk, Huang, Altman, Bezos, Cook. Toasts to "friendship." Flyovers. Marine One. The whole opera. Behind the closed door it was not opera.

    WHEN IT WAS FOX...

    CNN's Brian Stelter freaks that the Chinese Communist state Media was allowed inside the White House, but our fake news was not. This after a Federal Judge issued a TRO on Trump's ban. The man who once floated kicking Fox out of the pool now discovers that access is a privilege when it's his team on the sidewalk.

    SPEECHLESS

    Last night NBC & ABC spent about 30 each seconds covering the President's landmark speech at the UN, while today most of the media focuses on the role of "free press" and Trump's ban on CNN, MSNOW & Politico. What you will not hear: whether he has a point. Whether a leftist hegemony that calls itself journalism is still journalism when it buries a landmark speech & then lectures the country about the First Amendment. They will fight to the death for the right to ignore the news.

    BIG STICK

    Trump walked into the UN today & talked like the building was rented, not sacred. Western Hemisphere first: cartels as the ISIS next door, no footholds for pretenders. Iran's like a dinner special. Option A: a deal after the midterms, rebuild, maybe even become great. Option B: annihilate the Islamic Republic, drive it into hell, no leftovers. A.I. got the MAGA treatment, too.

    TRASH DAY

    Fake news gets the boot and then sues. Trump removes CNN, MSNOW & Politico from the WH. Networks sue, including Fox. They'll probably win like Jim Acosta did, and we'll still pretend they're journalists!

    WHO FLIPS IT?

    Six years after he boarded up the Pacific, Gavin Newsom waded into a Montana river w/ Jake Tapper & declared beach closures "insane." Today he signed an executive order to invent an AI kill switch. The order does not say who gets the big red button-Newsom's office, some certified auditor in the lab, or the same governor who once decided you couldn't walk on sand. The man who now admits the last panic was overreach wants the next one to come with a remote.

    WEEKEND AT MITCH'S

    They rolled Mitch McConnell out of his Capitol Hill townhouse staring into the middle distance like the last vegetable the FDA forgot to recall. The Senate reconvened & the country got a live-action argument for term limits. Polls have been screaming 80%+. Congress still pretends the only term limit that matters is death or a midterm. btw: Do you think Mitch gets A.I.?

    LET AMERICA COMPUTE

    One side wants to flood the zone w/ compute, treat doomerism like a psy-op, and let the chips fall (preferably Nvidia-shaped). The other wants a hard stop, a new federal overlord, and prison time for anyone who keeps scaling. Trump called the panic a hoax on live speakerphone. Bernie called it an extinction-level event. The robots have not taken over. The politicians already have.

    TWO MEN IN A RIVER

    Waist-deep in a Montana stream, CNN's Jake Tapper & Gavin Newsom strap on the Orvis cosplay and pretend this is just two regular dudes cursing at trout. Newsom: I won't run if Kamala runs. Today we wade in: the interview, the pose, the pledge, and why "I wouldn't do that to her" is the slickest fly in the box.

    CHINA'S BITCH

    Over the weekend Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei published a long, trembling essay called We Must Pace the Frontier. After months of A.I. models getting better at building the next models, after rogue agent swarms already slipped the leash, the high priests of silicon suddenly want to take it slower. Evil Trump just told them to keep going largely because another country will.

    GIGGLE ZERO

    Twenty-five years later the names still get read. The families still fold in half. And New York's first Muslim socialist mayor and AOC still found something to giggle about while it happened.The camera cut from a man with his face buried in his arms to Mamdani and Ocasio-Cortez leaning in, smiling, then laughing as relatives kept reciting the dead. They treated the reading like a side conversation at a fundraiser. Tomorrow both of them will still have their jobs. That is the 25th anniversary in 2026: the dead get their two hours, the living get their careers, and the rest of us get to watch the difference.

    DIVIDEND IN DALLAS

    Last night at the first-ever GOP midterm convention, evil Trump proposed a $5,000 payment to every adult U.S. citizen — if Republicans hold the House and Senate in November. Price tag: 1.3 trillion. Critics aren't entirely wrong about the size. They're missing the mechanism.

    FINAL EXIT

    Jurors break their silence in the Lindsay Clancy case, Stella Parton speaks out on why Dolly kept her cancer diagnosis private, and podcast pioneer, Adam Carolla reveals (again) he's leaving CA

    BOLDLY GO

    The Hail Mary that isn't even legal. Lindsay Clancy's attorney appears on GMA and asks President Trump to consider issuing her a pardon. Meanwhile we were promised a better future 60 years ago today when the first episode of Star Trek aired on TV.

    MISTRIAL

    Cable drew the map before the jury finished the first hour. Team Mental Health versus Team She Knew. Men versus women. Meds versus murder. Every chyron hungry for a scoreboard. The jury, hung at 11-1, just refused to pick a jersey.
