Trump constantly talks about how “groceries” are an “such an old fashioned word.” And brags about how he used it while campaigning anyway. Honest question: How is it an old fashioned word? What is the modern word for groceries that the hip people use? I kinda suspect it’s because he hasn’t really ever bought groceries or thought about them so he assumes it’s old fashioned. Is there a better explanation?

I’m back, sort of. I’m off the river and back in Vegas. But taking the day to reacquaint myself with air conditioning and indoor plumbing (and catching up on the news a bit). Really wonderful trip, with some hardships. But it was great fun and incessantly beautiful.

The CEO of Uber just dodged (some might say lied) to Bret Baier. He said that the price differences people experience are purely about supply and demand getting safe drivers etc. This is simply not true. If I open the app and my wife or daughter open the app — from the same location at the exact same time going to the exact same destination — we will get different price quotes based on the algorithm’s guess about ability/willingness to pay. This “bespoke” pricing has its defenders — I am not one — but Uber shouldn’t pretend it’s not doing what it absolutely is doing: charging people more for the same product if they think they can get away with it, and then pretending it’s about mere supply and demand or safety. It’s not.

Oh no he didn’t. Jonathan Martin with some straight up Martin Van Buren erasure. Since the 12th amendment passed in 1804, TWO sitting vice presidents have been elected straight to the presidency. George HW Bush and Martin Van Buren. JMart gonna get a visit from the Van Buren boys.

So they’re trying to sell this deal to discuss a deal as an effort to bring Iran into the Abraham Accords? That seems to be what Mullin is trying to claim. Spoiler alert: The Mullahs aren’t joining the Abraham Accords ffs.

Pippa had a bad day. In the park she misjudged a jump and hurt her leg, so now she’s very limpy (and she hates being picked up, which I have to do get her outside, given the stairs). Adding insult to injury: sky booms. Have a nice thought for the girl.
