As Coke Zero gets bigger, and threatens to dethrone Diet Coke as the most important diet soda property in the Coca-Cola extended universe, the feud between Diet Coke fans and Coke Zero drinkers is getting pretty fizzy. on.wsj.com/4wKhvI5

This is probably a long shot, but if anybody happens to be in DC this weekend and plans on visiting Arlington, I would love to see a fresh photo of my husband’s grave in Section 60. SSG Alan W. Shaw Section 60, Grave 8451 B Co 1/12 Cav, 1st Cavalry Division November 10, 1975 - February 9, 2007 There’s just something about knowing people still stop by, still say his name, still remember. 🇺🇸⭐🇺🇸

“Indeed, asking for photos of underage girls at a swim party doesn’t appear to be the best look for a political strategist considering the controversy that continues to swirl around President Trump and the Epstein Files.”
Michael Karlis@MichaelKarlis

TEXAS POLITICS: Greg Abott’s longtime campaign consultant is so desperate for dirt on Gina Hinojosa, that he’s seeking underage pictures of her allegedly “partying” in high school. Full Story via @SAcurrent 👇

NEW: 50 empty Waymos invade Atlanta neighborhoods and circle their cul-de-sacs for hours early in the mornings. Residents say they are getting waymo traffic than usual and have tried combating the cars with a neon green sign, which only made the problem worse. The Waymos didn't know what to do and clogged the entire street. "We have small animals and pets, got kids getting on the bus in the morning, and it just doesn’t feel safe to have that traffic," one resident said. The residents say Waymo has not given them a response yet.

Joe Lim estimates that 90 percent of what you see on the internet is advertising in disguise, and he should know. For three years, Lim ran a company called Floodify, which at its peak operated 65,000 dummy social-media accounts used to drum up attention on behalf of paying clients. The point of this kind of marketing is that nobody is supposed to notice it. But lately, the machinery has started to show. In April, Justin Bieber headlined two consecutive weekends at Coachella. Coachella is the biggest stage in pop music save only for the Super Bowl, the kind of event that in theory generates its own attention. And yet on both weekends, a Discord server writer Lane Brown had been monitoring hosted paid campaigns for Bieber’s Coachella performances, offering clippers — people who are hired to turn a song, trailer, interview, stump speech, or whatever into short, social-media-friendly fragments — as much as a dollar per thousand views. “On social media, popular opinion is being formed, measured, and manipulated all at once, and every signal the platforms produce — a trending song, a backlash, a talking point, the feeling that ‘everybody’ is suddenly talking about the same thing — can now be fabricated by unseen actors with hidden agendas,” writes Brown. “Everybody is doing this now,” Lim says. “And if you’re not, you’re behind.” Brown reports on how the same techniques are now being used to fool people on every app they go to in order to find out what other people think, not just in music but across entertainment, politics, consumer products, and celebrity gossip: nymag.visitlink.me/w6Bu9N

When did we normalize this? When did it become okay for a president to tell a female reporter she’s a ‘dumb person’ for asking a totally legitimate question about his contradictory answers? Was there a specific date and time it become okay? Normal? Normalized?

TRUMP: We have a ballroom that's under budget. It's going up right here. I've doubled the size of it because we obviously need that. REPORTER: The price doubled TRUMP: I doubled the size of it, you dumb person. You are not a smart person.

Those advisors are right. @Republicans keep breaking the promises that swing voters care about the most. Trump in 2024: "I will cut your energy prices by 50%. And it's not going to be hard."
Annmarie Hordern@annmarie

WSJ: Privately, President Trump’s advisers are increasingly worried that Republicans will pay a political price for the rising fuel costs, according to people familiar with the matter. Many of those advisers are eager to end the war in hopes that prices will begin moderating before November’s midterm elections.

Most advice for Democrats is ideological — be more centrist or progressive etc. But I’ve met so many voters who beliefs don’t fit in that box, or choose pieces from all buckets. IMO — it is much important to have clearly articulated vision as a candidate than to calibrate to those whims With @karaswisher

Brendan Carr whines about comedians making jokes about his beloved leader but is cool with foreign investors owning 49.5% of the biggest news and media conglomerate in US history. CNN, CBS and Ticktok being dictated by foreign investors. We know how well that worked with Netanyahu and AIPAC leading Congress and our Presidents around by the nose. More wars, crooked politicians working for foreign interests, less resources for the American people and lawless regimes wreaking havoc on the world. #BlockTheMerger

New: Paramount has asked the FCC to sign off on the Middle East investment in its Warners mega-deal. The company says in a filing viewed by THR that "indirect foreign ownership of equity interests in Paramount will be approximately 49.5 percent."

.@GinaHinojosaTX within single digits of Greg Abbott in what was once deep red TX. A few takeaways: - This poll does not include the third party candidate, which means this race is even closer. - Gina has a higher favorability than any other candidate (D or R), elected or political party.

PabloReports: Who do you think Trump should fire next? AOC: Is he out of women? Trump only seems to have the capability to fire female secretaries. If you’re a man in the Trump administration, it seems that they reward misconduct.
