I'm speculating he'll opt for more of a support role, and just target convenient locations in closer proximity. Stinky will perform the heavy lifting, for what that's worth.

Gadi Eisenkot doesn't appear to support an all-out war on Iran, preferring economic pressure and targeted strikes against Iran's nuclear program. If he takes office, that may hinder Stinky's attacks on Iran. (Yay!)

Stinky's sock puppet department of injustice is making accusations of "massive" voter fraud, just in time for the election ballot collection. Trump administration asks Washington to set aside ballots from 400 voters it says may be noncitizens Needless to say, by this point I'm highly skeptical of this claim. But I'm sure it'll be investigated.

Randommer/Interestinglier/Weirder - now more of everything for the same low price!
The data centers are having real and substantial effects on energy costs and water usage in the U.S. and Europe. Those have significant impacts on communities and their economics. It would be good to have realistic and complete data on their actual impact, but there have been efforts to cover all that up and conceal it with misinformation. That makes it suspect and so subject to scapegoating.

With the House likely being lost to the Dems, Stinky now seeks to legally overrule a particular Senate race election outcome in Alaska... before the votes are even counted. I wonder what the voters up there think of this? Trump says he ordered the Justice Department’s lawsuit over Alaska’s US Senate race

The drawback to living to that age is that there are very few left who remember your contributions. Still, it's amazing to live to that age and she had a pretty impressive career.

Musk wants to get back into the inner loop of Stinky, so it makes some sense from his perspective. I suspect he may also have been pressured by threats to his business. I.e. do you want to follow Anthropic? But the situation could change following the election.

Alberta rejects a move toward independence from Canada in a victory for Carney Didn't that entire "independence" movement seem driven by a Trumpian oil company agenda? I mean, an independent Alberta could be environmentally exploited by big oil to extract every last drop of petroleum without oversight from the Canadian government. Alberta could have ended up like Venezuela with a puppet government run by the US. Well good on them for sticking with our friends to the north.
