The Republicans appear to be worried about the mid-terms, as the administration attacks Democrats and using US State Department to officially accuse what their leader calls Dumocracy and Cuba of being the “capital of 21st-century communism,” and of plotting an anti-American revolution.
Roots produce new shoots, that can interfere with the future… Power tends to corrupt and has proved itself addictive to many, who have institutionalized it along with its misuse and abuse. Some of the dehumanizing effects of "power for its own sake" are exploitation, poverty, greed, bigotry, inequality, superstition, racism, sexism, war, overpopulation, genocide, environmental destruction, oppression, and human misery of every imaginable kind.
"Make Español Great Again" Spanish language sports coverage just had its biggest moment in U-S television history... and the numbers back it up.
Telemundo's coverage of the 2026 World Cup averaged six point three million viewers across all one hundred four matches... a jump of one hundred forty three percent from 2022. The final between Spain and Argentina drew twenty three point nine million viewers on Telemundo alone... the most watched soccer match ever on Spanish language television. Streaming told an even bigger story. Peacock and Telemundo's digital platforms averaged three million viewers per minute... nearly four times what they pulled four years ago. Fox still drew the larger English language audience for the final... nearly thirty nine million viewers to Telemundo's twenty four million.But NBCUniversal executives say the real shift isn't about one night. It's strategic. Spanish language programming is now central to Peacock's growth plans... and Telemundo has passed longtime rival Univision to become the number one Spanish language network on both TikTok and YouTube.
Spanish language sports media didn't just have a good tournament. It crossed into the first tier of American media business.

A fact-check from April 2026 confirmed it: the claim that Karoline Leavitt said Trump lacks enough intelligence to make decisions about Iran is false. The quote circulated widely on social media as a satirical dig at Trump, but it wasn't something Leavitt actually said in a briefing, its a fabricated line that gained traction around the time Trump was making disputed claims about the Iran war and his foreign policy record.
What Leavitt has actually said on the record about Iran runs the opposite direction — defending, not undercutting, the administration's intelligence basis. In one March briefing, she pushed back on a CBS correspondent questioning Trump's rationale for military action, insisting his decision was based on intelligence and a year of negotiations with Iran, and stated flatly that the president "is not making this up." So to clear up, the line makes for a good punchline, but it's not a real quote.
Lettuce prey... that's the question a lot of Americans are asking their salad bowls right now. Cases of cyclosporiasis... a nasty parasite-driven stomach illness... have exploded across the country this summer. Michigan alone has logged more than six thousand five hundred cases since late June. A state that normally sees about fifty cases... a year.
Health officials say the likely culprit is shredded iceberg lettuce. The F D A has tied part of the outbreak to lettuce served at Taco Bell in five states, and Taylor Fresh Foods has pulled iceberg lettuce grown in central Mexico off shelves nationwide.
The bug spreads through contaminated food or water... not person to person... and it's tough. Regular washing and disinfectants won't kill it. Cooking greens to at least one hundred fifty eight degrees... will.
Symptoms hit about a week after exposure... explosive, watery diarrhea... cramping... nausea... fatigue. Nobody has died in this outbreak. But a lot of people are looking twice at their lunch.
