Meanwhile, night one of the GOP's first-ever midterm convention delivered a genuine earthquake: Democrat Sen. John Fetterman appeared on video praising his Republican Pennsylvania colleague, sending his own party into a fury, while Trump's promised $5,000-per-adult dividend drew skepticism from Fox News and even some Republicans. And in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia and the Houthis are now in what analysts are calling their most serious open war since 2022.TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN:- Bernie Sanders organizes a Senate AI-safety briefing built around Jacob Coxon's viral Anthropic resignation — except Coxon worked there roughly six weeks, not years, and researchers have tied his socials to Newspeak, a British NGO explicitly devoted to "hacking" democracy.- Democrats erupt after Sen.
