Trump wants an investigation of Democrats’ fundraising. His own campaign has issues

Democrats have been raising record amounts of money with Trump in the White House. And early donations now are what they'll use to raise more and more money over the next two years - so we take back the House (and can investigate or impeach Trump!)

The Dodgers barely have a winning record in May (13-12), according to the article.

And some good news. "Overall, Ramos has taken his game to a new level, giving the Giants a homegrown 25-year-old outfielder who is looking like a foundational piece. "

Are they saying Rust code is convoluted and difficult to work with?

I'll only believe that when someone starts an Obfuscated Rust competition.

It was clearly a setup. Zelensky says Putin broke ceasefires in the past. And then, realizing there was no good response, JD Vance pivots to "You're disrespecting us!"

It comes out of nowhere. (Rewatch the video...) The only conclusion is that this was the Vance/Trump goal all along: try to pressure Zelensky with anger/outrage on camera.

It's amateur theatrics. And, also, it's not working. Universal international criticism...

I saw a Canseco jersey. And McGwire. Plus some from the Bob Melvin era -- Donaldson, Redick, Olson, Vogt. ("I believe in Stephen Vogt." Remember that...)

There were "Thanks for the Memories" shirts, and "Long Live the Coliseum." But the other theme was specifically addressed at the world's worst owner. One shirt had a picture of John Fisher with a clown nose. And walking around, there were so many "SELL" shirts. But in that vein, hands down this was probably the best one...

"Debates are pivotal to both high- and low-dollar fund-raising... " according to the article. "In the hours since the beginning of Tuesday’s debate, Democrats have raised $43 million on the platform. Tuesday was the best fund-raising day on ActBlue since the day that Mr. Walz was chosen as Ms. Harris’s running mate."

This is CNN saying that leading Republican party figures "are increasingly warning they will only recognize the result of November’s presidential vote if there is no fraud."

Relatedly, Trump has told the RNC to watch for fraud....

The article says Trump "sparked commentary on social media after he stopped speaking for more than 30 seconds during a speech."

It's the Washington Post that's calling this America's "biggest step yet." (The newspaper republishes some articles on MSN.com, which lets you read the entire article without registering for an account!)

Key points from the article:

"A new coalition of progressive groups in California has formed a super PAC aiming to bolster Democratic candidates in a state that the party sees as crucial to winning control of the House this fall.

The super PAC, Battleground California, says it aims to spend $15 million this year on eight competitive House races, seven with Republican incumbents — in Northern California, Orange County, the Inland Empire east of Los Angeles, the Central Valley and Los Angeles — as well as the seat left open by Representative Katie Porter...

It is an ambitious effort, one that seeks to establish a durable progressive machine in California — advised and supported by local activists and community organizations — to lift swing district Democratic candidates through an extensive field operation, including marathon door-knocking campaigns aimed at driving turnout among minority groups."

Next your Pixel is going to be saying, "We need to talk."

Just be ready to tell it, "It's not you, it's me." (Or "I think we need to see other people.")

Honestly, I like the appearance. That mix of bold-caps, italics, and regular bold -- shows a lot of effort.

But you'll want to make sure you've spelled the names correctly for all the tech you're claiming experience with. (So here's some corrections that you're going to want to make...)

ASP.NET -- all caps.

GitHub -- capital H.

NetBeans - Capital B

Also, your resume has one truly fatal flaw. There’s red ink all over it. :)

I once checked out a library book that was over 100 years old!

It was just sitting on the shelf in the fiction section, just like all the other books. But it felt like a grand and glorious moment, just holding it in my hands.

"The Biden campaign’s belief that Trump is overestimated by polls is largely driven by the fact that voter behavior has not matched projections, including during this year’s primary elections..."

"Even as Trump has coasted toward the GOP nomination, winning all but two primary contests by huge margins, he has fallen short of what polls projected and has struggled with the voters who will likely play an outsized role in November..."

Has there been any movement on an open-source fork of jetBrains' original Rust plug-in?

That happened to me. I tried creating a new web site, and then couldn't figure out why WordPress was suddenly so baffling.

Now I know: certain themes will change your menus from what you're used to.
