Democracy is fine. Everything is fine.\n🙏 TRUMP: THE SECOND COMING\nThe President posted an AI image of himself as Jesus Christ healing the sick. Alex Jones pushed back. Yes, that Alex Jones. When the gay-frog guy is your moral compass, you may have lost the plot.\n🏛️ ERIC SWALWELL EXITS, STAGE LEFT\nCalifornia's Democratic frontrunner for governor resigned his seat and dropped out of the race after multiple assault allegations.

DJ demos the Google AI Edge Gallery app — free on iOS, runs Gemma 4 locally, and can control your phone with a 250-parameter micro-model.\n😭 MEN AND THEIR EMOTIONS\nChris cries during the Battle of Yavin.
