Remember all those law firms that struck a deal with Trump? It’s not totally working out for them. At least 11 large companies—including Morgan Stanley and Microsoft—are cutting ties with law firms that caved to Trump’s threats of political retribution. https://trib.al/75a9wU3

"Is America Really Better Off if Bubonic Plague Returns? We ask experts for their views." Someone chose this as a headline. Thinking it "edgy" or "clever." That someone, whose name we don't know, is an editor at most influential US news org. May well have "gone to school in the Boston area."

The pope’s unadorned tomb, marked by a single Latin word — Franciscus — was intended, a cleric said, to reflect a life of “simplicity and essential things.” The requiem Mass was a solemn spectacle of an ancient faith, an elaborate, multilingual ceremony.

In just three months in office, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has produced a run of chaos that is unmatched in the Pentagon's recent history. His inner circle — military veterans who, like him, had little experience running large, complex organizations — is in shambles.
