The funny thing about rfk is that when he dies it will probably be impossible to tell whether it was murder, given how much weird shit the guy is up to. They'll be like "we found an absolute ton of arsenic in his blood, but also he was taking arsenic pills"

Yes there are places in ATL with super-high charges/fines for parking. It's worth addressing. But this writeup frustratingly conflates that with a very different issue: the desire for free parking everywhere. Paid parking should be expected in a major city! atlanta.eater.com/2025/4/9/244...

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is not doing a great job selling "Liberation Day" on Meet the Press this morning. He's citing the fact that oil prices dropped this week as a positive -- that's probably because the market's starting to price in a drop in demand from a recession 😬

BRENNAN: The countries seem kind of random. Why are the Heard and McDonald islands, which don't export to the US and are quite literally inhabited by penguins, why do they face a 10% tariff. Did you use AI to generate this? LUTNICK: Heh heh heh. No.
