Rep. James Comer reports Bill Clinton told the committee before his deposition, 'I understand why you brought me in...It's perfectly normal for me to be sitting here today, answering questions.' "The Democrats were just, you know, in awe that Bill Clinton just destroyed their whole narrative that they've been trying to build for the last 6 months," Comer says, "That this investigation was a cover-up by Donald Trump, and Donald Trump had liability. Bill Clinton put that to bed, hopefully for good."

@MosabHasanYOSEF We had a civil war that was terrible but necessary for the better good. My Persian friends understand this.

Trump’s Iran Dilemma: The Real Cost of “Saving Face” With the armada’s big show, two carriers, warships stacked, jets ready, Trump’s options are narrowing. Back down now, and the tough-guy image crumbles. Push ahead, and the gamble might turn ugly. Here’s what a strike really means, no hype. Limited Strike: A Slap That Stings, But Doesn’t Stop Pinpoint hits on nuclear bunkers like Natanz or Fordow, or missile silos. It looks decisive, quick bombs, headlines, “mission accomplished.” But Iran bounces back: sites are dug deep, rebuilt in months. They parade the “survival,” fire up loyalists, then hit back, drones on ships, proxies on bases, oil routes choked. Gas prices climb, markets wobble. The program slows, but the regime stays. Just a bruise, not a knockout, no regime change. The elephant birthed a mouse. Full-Scale War: Regime Hunt Turns Into Nightmare: Target the Ayatollah, IRGC brass, Tehran command. It might topple the top, briefly. Then the floodgates open: power vacuum, IRGC fragmentation, 90 million people spiral into civil war. Think Iraq, Syria, Libya chaos, but bigger, refugees flood neighbors, extremists grab turf, oil halts. Gulf states tank, Israel fights a prolonged war on every border. America? Trapped in another quagmire, billions burned, global standing dented. No easy out. The buildup was meant to scare, now it’s a leash. Quiet deals or sanctions or a well prepared surprise attack might’ve worked. This? It’s all risk, zero pay off.

@aviationarchive I used to see him at Oshkosh EAA in the early 80’s. I was too stupid to shake his hand and buy a signed copy of his book.

Historic gun cam footage of a young 21 year old Capt. Chuck Yeager getting jumped by FW190s on Nov. 27th 1944 while on a strafing run 15 miles east of Magdeburg, Germany. He managed to shoot down 4-crazy to think that our generation's crossed while he was still alive.🫡

@YunTaTsai1 And the stakes are high. A reboot at 80mph on a freeway is not cool (pun intended).

Designing an inference chip for robots is actually very difficult. In data centers each chip is bathed in jacuzzi and babysat by nannies. If they died it would be hot swapped by one of their clones. The fault rate of GPUs in datacenter is actually quite high. Industrial average annual fault rate of H100 is 9%. Ideal conditions could reduce it down to 2% but never below a single digit. The fault recovery of GPU nodes actually could take a while, from minutes to hours. It is not instantaneous. In robots, the chips are out in the cold and they need rapid self recovery. The fault tolerance is in a different league. It is not uncommon many robotic companies struggle to get the chip running more than a few hours without rebooting. For chip companies, this is great since they would tell robotic companies to buy more chips for hot swapping. For robotic companies, this is bad since it is obviously not a scaleable solution but they are stuck with endless back-and-forth JIRA tickets with vendors.

@SenRandPaul Why don’t you change the rules to make it a real pension plan, invest the funds properly, and make retirement age 65. You know just like any normal pension plan. Ps and put all government employees like yourself into it.

I support bold reforms to Social Security to guarantee its long-term solvency. With Americans living longer, real change is non-negotiable. That’s why I’ve proposed raising the full retirement age to 70—a necessary step to keep Social Security sustainable for future generations. If we want this program to survive, we must act now.

@EricLDaugh @grok Is The President able to simply ignore a federal judge when they rule directly contradicting a Supreme Court ruling?

🚨 BREAKING: Karoline Leavitt UNLEASHES on activist judge who banned President Trump from firing federal employees during the shutdown - says the judge DEFIED the Supreme Court "This same judge in May ILLEGALLY ruled that the president does not have the right to fire executive branch employees - the Supreme Court smacked this judge DOWN in July!" "They have NO legal rationale for this nationwide restraining order! She is now BLOCKING the administration from doing what the Supreme Court has already affirmed the president can do!" "She is WRONG...she is a FAR-LEFT HACK and she uses politics from the bench." 🔥

Maybe follow the law. The South Korean workers detained during the September 4, 2025, ICE raid at a Hyundai-LG battery factory in Bryan County, Georgia (near Atlanta) entered the U.S. primarily under short-term visitor visas—specifically B-1 business visas, B-1/B-2 business/tourist visas, or the Visa Waiver Program (ESTA, which allows up to 90 days for tourism or limited business activities without a formal visa). These categories do not permit paid employment by U.S. companies, and none of the detained workers appear to have entered on proper work visas (such as H-1B or L-1). Internal ICE records reviewed for a sample of detainees confirm this pattern, with six on B-1/B-2 visas and four via the Visa Waiver Program.

Phang: So here’s the deal: that joint venture battery facility that was the subject of the raid — $4.3 billion, folks. Among the largest projects in Georgia and expected to create 8,500 jobs once completed. 8,500 jobs. For whom? For Americans. The South Koreans are here to help build, to help train, to help get this thing up and running so 8,500 Americans can have jobs. But no — the Trump administration are just sitting there rounding people up because some Republican chick decided to call ICE.

Tesla is now allowing businesses to purchase White-labeled Superchargers. A minimum order of 4 is required, and each Supercharger comes standard with the same hardware, software, pricing controls and service as those in Tesla’s network. Would be the ultimate flex to have your own set of Superchargers.

@NobodymrRobert @baker_girlie The latch was not fully engaged and released or broke. The hydraulic line then pulled apart. Quick fix. Construction is dangerous. Keep back and maintain awareness.
