“I need alpha males and alpha females that are going to rip out their guts, eat them and ask for seconds,” Cao said, referencing comments he made during a 2024 debate against Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA), when he unsuccessfully ran to replace him.

Exactly one year later, I reached the 100-day streak mark

SCOOP: Army Secretary Dan Driscoll has no plans to resign or otherwise leave his role at the Pentagon, he said in a statement on Tuesday, after a series of internal clashes with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have caused other U.S. officials to question how long they can coexist.

The Army plans to spend $12B in discretionary and $24B in mandatory spending on missile procurement in FY-27, largely stemming from several long-term framework agreements DOD has entered into with primes to boost munitions and missile production

Remember y'all.

@JoshStein_ Here here. K&W in the village was a favorite of mine growing up. I was partial to their chop steak, Mac & cheese, sweet potato casserole, fried okra. I went there for lunch after taking the SAT. Nothing ever tasted so good.

K&W has a special place in my heart. Anna and I used to take the kids to the one in the Village District (which has been shuttered for a while now). The kids loved the chicken nuggets, rolls, and mac and cheese. I used to get the salmon (and eat the kids’ leftovers), and Anna was a fan of the baked spaghetti. The tea was super sweet. I can’t think of another institution in Raleigh that was more representative — there were people of all ages, races, incomes — and the staff and other customers always had a kind word for the kids. K&W felt like it was from another era, and now sadly it is.
