This is an amazing quote from Lindsey Graham about when he realized how politics works. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/07/…

RT @axios: NEW: President Trump has walked back his demand for collecting a 20% toll from ships that transit through the strait of Hormuz.…

Nike pays Erling Haaland roughly $20 million a year to be photographed with their products. A family-run western store in Dallas just got the same treatment for free. Better than free: Haaland paid them $750 for a taxidermy raccoon hugging a whiskey bottle. The backstory makes it better. Haaland walked into Wild Bill's Western Store during Norway's World Cup run and bought cowboy hats, exotic boots, a longhorn belt buckle, and a shirt reading "Y'all can kiss my Dallas." The owner says Haaland knew nothing about cowboy hats and had to be fitted for his first one. Then Norway's Cinderella run ended in the quarterfinals, and the tournament's breakout star, seven goals, carried the raccoon off the plane in Oslo himself. Caption: "It followed me home." Then he ran an Instagram poll asking fans to name it. The results for a boot shop that's been family-owned since the 1970s: the Whiskey Raccoon is sold out. The Dallas shirt is nearly gone. Their $500 Belligerent Squirrel, a taxidermy squirrel smoking a cigarette and holding Jack Daniel's, is down to low stock. Local shoppers are lining up at a store most of them had walked past for years. Sports brands run entire celebrity seeding departments trying to manufacture exactly this: a global superstar genuinely delighted by a product, on camera, unprompted. Every one of those campaigns reads as an ad, because it is one. Brands spend $20 million a year renting Haaland's image. Wild Bill's sold it to him for $750.

@florida_grand @RepGregSteube I want one time and we’ll stick to it (which Arizona does)

@MarcACaputo Hour or half hour as @RepGregSteube proposes?

Spring forward And stay there

ball don't lie. it's a pretty unequivocally good inflation print...oil reversion leading the charge for sure. but plenty disinflation elsewhere too.

For decades, Cubans fleeing their homeland overwhelmingly headed north on rafts to Florida or flew to visa-friendly countries such as Nicaragua or Ecuador before making the long trek to the U.S. Their top destination is now Brazil. wsj.com/world/americas…

@marychastain That is north by florida standards you yankee

@MarcACaputo I'm in Oklahoma!

@marychastain That’s fine for yall up north

@MarcACaputo No. I like standard time!

@markscarter58 People are crazy

@MarcACaputo What? 🤭

One conspiratorial pitch for Trump to pick Vance as a running mate in 2024: if he chose Rubio, the “Deep State” would kill POTUS Now, there’s speculation that the Iranians want to kill Trump to make Vance president Hmmmm

The push to bypass the Strait of Hormuz axios.com/2026/07/14/oil…

@TrialsphereChip @whoistrip @ChiefJosheola A new president will take office in 2029

@ChiefJosheola I don't know how much further the man can stray from "harmless"

Does Trump have to come out and say he’s not leaving in 2028 for you fucking morons to understand what he’s doing? He has no intention of giving up power. None.

For the record, I don’t believe either conspiracy theory Iran has plotted to kill Trump for years His decision to launch the war Feb 28 that killed the Ayatollah et al gave them more reason to do so And the idea that Vance would go easy on Iran for killing Trump is nuts

@MikeScherr1 @axios Yet a paucity of intelligent commentary on your part

@MarcACaputo @axios A diversity of opinions

@MikeScherr1 @axios lol

@MarcACaputo @axios is all I needed to see to disregard this

Confidence in news continues to plummet, according to Gallup
