BREAKING: The US Government officially posts its largest July budget deficit in history, at -$432 billion, due to an acceleration in federal spending.
Interest on US debt rose +$26 billion from last July's levels to an alarming $118 billion for the month.
This puts total interest expense for FY2026 up to $1.17 trillion in FY2026.
As a result, interest expense has officially surpassed both National Defense and Medicare spending.
In other words, the US government now spends more money just on interest than it does to fund the entire US Military or to provide healthcare for seniors.
We cannot afford higher interest rates.
BREAKING: The Los Angeles Lakers are being sold to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger for a record-breaking price over $12 billion, according to @ramonashelburne.

Can you imagine how powerful Thomas Massie in 2028 could be if a broad coalition including people like Dave Smith, Tucker Carlson, Joe Kent, MTG, Theo Von, Glenn Greenwald, Megyn Kelly, Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, Joe Rogan, and others united behind him? And I feel like that’s well within reach in this cultural moment…
We said no more foreign wars and we meant it and supported Donald Trump because he made that promise.
But he’s betrayed us all.
Our commitment is America First for all Americans, right, left, and center.
The movement has begun.
Donald Trump is right about this:
Eliminate the debt limit—its only real function is to threaten an economic crisis.
I'm ready to work with both Democratic and Republican Senators to immediately scrap the debt ceiling and protect the economy.
The Eagles, after paying both DTs Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis this offseason, will have a similar situation next year when CBs Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean both become eligible for contract extensions.
