Political Trump signed an executive order targeting birthright citizenship and birth tourism, setting up another likely Supreme Court fight. The Supes also closed a procedural loophole frequently used against the Trump administration. A Senate panel voted to hold Dr. Fallacy in contempt. His COVID-era phone has also produced potentially millions of additional documents.

Vance says the administration has uncovered $230 billion in fraud since March. The DemoKKKrat civil war continues, with establishment figures preparing a reported $15 million campaign against the radical left. Abdul El-Sayed's campaign reportedly received $115,000 from people with alleged terrorist affiliations, adding another headache for the DemoKKKrats. Another major Michigan pedo sweep resulted in 70 arrests, raising renewed questions about the source of the investigative leads. Trump honored more than 120 U.S. Olympians at the White House. Ken Paxton reportedly leads the GOP in fundraising despite claims that he is politically vulnerable. DOJ requested dismissal of cases against eight Oath Keepers connected to January 6. Pollsters badly missed Michigan's Senate primary, with Scott Rasmussen attributing the error partly to differences in who answers polling calls. A federal judge in a high-profile LSU rape case reportedly has a family connection to a convicted serial rapist. AI Alphabet is borrowing another $20-$25 billion as AI development continues burning through enormous amounts of cash. Data-center water and electricity demands are legitimate concerns, but Larry argues the debate should focus on enabling AI infrastructure without raising utility costs or sacrificing resources while competing with Chy-na. A Chicago funeral home was found with 57 decomposing bodies. Immigration / Crime The Trump administration says it has located more than 148,000 missing children out of roughly 470,000 brought into the country under Rutabaga. Several migrant advocacy organizations were removed from the program, with a Houston legal organization instead contracted to help migrant children return home. The administration continues framing the issue around both immigration enforcement and protecting vulnerable children.

Economic Employers are hiring fewer workers but offering higher pay. DoorDash delivery drones are apparently becoming a thing. Humanity has reached another milestone. Las Vegas is doing better than the "Vegas is dying" narrative suggests: the labor force is up 1.2% and unemployment has fallen more than 2%, although foreclosures and default notices are rising.

International Another migrant surge toward Cueta, Spain, is reportedly imminent. Chy-na allegedly inserted hidden backdoors into millions of routers, raising major cybersecurity concerns. One analysis argues Trump effectively won the Iran conflict based on the resulting regional energy and geopolitical restructuring. Europe is suffering a severe drought, with the Danube falling low enough to expose WWII-era warship wrecks. A Cambridge professor hired through a DSI program resigned amid plagiarism allegations. Entertainment Halo executives admitted they hired people who disliked the franchise, helping explain why the reboot struggled to match the original. The WTA has introduced sex testing while the WNBA has not, with Larry highlighting Sophie Cunningham as one of the few women's basketball figures publicly opposing biological males in women's sports.

Medical A new study reportedly links daily Diet Coke consumption with cognitive decline. Larry notes he drinks A&W Diet Root Beer instead. RFK Jr. decertified a Kentucky organ-harvesting organization accused of removing organs before all signs of life had disappeared. The Dr. Fallacy controversy continues escalating, with even mainstream outlets warning that turning him into a public-health villain could have lasting consequences.

And Finally The closing joke has J.D. Vance discovering Trump and Muy Macho Marco are discussing deporting three million liberal white women and four beagles. Vance asks what the beagles did.
