"But wait! There’s a side provision to get around the problem of a loyalist cabinet. Congress can create some “other body” to independently determine the fitness of the president under the amendment. If it does so, that body would replace the role of the vice president and the cabinet in determining the inability of the president." The phrase "replace the role of the vice president and the cabinet" is highlighted.

Tweet from Eric Michael Garcia (@EricMGarcia): "Nancy Mace says she's not worried about crossing Trump on Epstein: 'Donald Trump is the one who banned Jeffrey Epstein from Mar a Lago. He was an FBI informant, and he talked to the feds to get this guy turned over. So Donald Trump is a hero in this.'" 7:42 PM EDT · Sep 2, 2025
"Spectator" cover showing Trump with a mounted machine gun in the back of a pickup like a Somali warlord in a business suit. With him, a crew of 5 wearing balaclavas (ski masks) and helmets straight off German soldiers in a WWII movie. The uniforms have no markings, unlike those in the DHS recruiting poster which riffs on this but clearly labels the Nazis as "ICE".

Deluzio wants Democrats to get behind a message of rejecting corporate campaign contributions, taking on monopolies, banning congressional stock trading, and positioning Republicans as responsible for cost-of-living increases.” (Axios Pittsburgh)

"To what purpose then require the co-operation of the Senate? I answer, that the necessity of their concurrence would have a powerful, though, in general, a silent operation. It would be an excellent check upon a spirit of favoritism in the President, and would tend greatly to prevent the appointment of unfit characters from State prejudice, from family connection, from personal attachment, or from a view to popularity. In addition to this, it would be an efficacious source of stability in the administration." "It will readily be comprehended, that a man who had himself the sole disposition of offices, would be governed much more by his private inclinations and interests, than when he was bound to submit the propriety of his choice to the discussion and determination of a different and independent body, and that body an entier branch of the legislature. The possibility of rejection would be a strong motive to care in proposing. The danger to his own reputation, and, in the case of an elective magistrate, to his political existence, from betraying a spirit of favoritism, or an unbecoming pursuit of popularity, to the observation of a body whose opinion would have great weight in forming that of the public, could not fail to operate as a barrier to the one and to the other. He would be both ashamed and afraid to bring forward, for the most distinguished or lucrative stations, candidates who had no other merit than that of coming from the same State to which he particularly belonged, or of being in some way or other personally allied to him, or of possessing the necessary insignificance and pliancy to render them the obsequious instruments of his pleasure."
"In the interview, Chaffetz, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee and one of the most vocal critics of Clinton, said he can no longer support the Republican nominee if he can’t look his 15-year-old daughter in the eye and tell her about Trump’s demeaning comments about women." - from Politico, 8 October, 2016

Google offers an "AI Overview" in response to the search string "new math". Highlighted portions include: "'New math' is a colloquial term often referring to the Common Core math standards introduced in the US in 2010." and "This video explains the concept of New Math and its origins" (referencing a YouTube video of a song and comedy bit by Tom Lehrer, called "New Math" and from 1965, when New Math was *actually* newish).
