Apparently, we've gone from being the most skeptical about DeSantis's chances to being... not exactly the least , but a bit reluctant to say it's all over. I wouldn't give him good odds of getting the nomination, but this is black swan season and compared to not-Trump candidates like Ramaswamy, he may still be the leper with the most fingers.
Decent argument here that by the end of August DBR will be in a countdown to dropping out of the race. My prediction is a much longer bleed out. But makes a good case and definitely cld go this way. https://t.co/dkvuSWBss1

Matthew Yglesias has been showing up on our radar quite a bit recently, and not in a good way.
I’m generally in favor of forgiving people awful stuff they said at age 20, but maybe not when they’re expressing essentially the same ideas in their late 30s in a very slightly more circumspect way.

I love it when billionaires voluntarily provide their own little economic stimulus packages by flushing tens or hundreds of millions of dollars down the drain.

BREAKING: if you are wondering why Judge Cannon issued on 8/7, without the defense requesting it, an Order directing the government why it was using a non-FLA grand jury, here is an answer: on 8/6 former Trump lawyer was on Fox raising that entirely bogus issue.

1. Place any four non-negative integers around a circle
2. For all pairs of adjacent numbers subtract the smaller from the bigger
3. Write the results on an outer concentric circle
4. Repeat
Eventually, four equal numbers will occur! pic.twitter.com/E1rxTrgGNi
