To give you an idea of the news cycle, at this writing the top stories on the Drudge Report are the exact same ones from more than 24 hours ago.
The preps for the Queen’s Monday morning Eastern Time funeral continue; Speaker Pelosi is newsless so far in Armenia; Donald Trump’s nearly two-hour Ohio rally speech was exactly what you would have expected; there’s a lot of rough weather in multiple hemispheres; neither side is backing down in the Martha’s Vineyard/DeSantis contretemps; and football gonna football, both pro and college.
I’ve read, watched, and listened, and this is what you need:
* The Wall Street Journal has a balanced global update on Oz/Fetterman, while the Washington Postsuggests the jury on J.D. Vance is still out.
Essential reading: none.
