I Set A Trap To Catch My Students Cheating With AI. The Results Were Shocking. "Students are not just undermining their ability to learn, but to someday lead."

Veteran-owned businesses are feeling burned by Trump’s contract cutting Among the contracts DOGE canceled under the Department of Veterans Affairs alone, two-thirds were with veteran-owned businesses.

Almost a year into Trump's second term, veterans doing business with DC are feeling the sting of the president's efforts to shrink the federal government and DOGE’s crusade to combat what it calls waste, fraud and abuse.

Maybe it’s time the values portion of officer evaluations is filled out by someone’s subordinate instead of themselves.

A Confederacy of Toddlers The Trump administration is a regime of troubled children.

Trump envoys issue ultimatum to Ukraine to sign peace deal by Thursday Hardline message over US-Russia plan at volatile meeting in Kyiv sparks alarm among European allies

How Trump's dirty deal w/Putin unfolded at a meeting in Kyiv:
- US army secretary Daniel Driscoll showed up late and laced his comments with profanities: β€œWe need to get this shit done"
- One senior European official described the tone of the meeting as β€œnauseating”

Fifa agrees World Cup matches can be moved at Trump’s request The president has been warning host cities under Democratic control that he will call on Fifa’s president to switch venues if he deems there is a problem

My first Big Event coverage was the 1994 World Cup at the LA Times. I was an intern and did very little, but I saw everything that historically stacked staff wrote about the biggest sport event any of them had ever covered.
