Sarah and JVL have a super-sized, instant classic:

* The Trump administration is using ChatGPT for everything.

* Why are Cornyn and Tillis even bothering with their fake protest of Todd Blanche?

* The Dem Senate map is looking . . . possible?

* Trump has raised $800 million from “donors” since coming back to office.

* And JVL finally explains why he’s obsessed with 60 Minutes investigative reporter Ross Douthat.

Plus: Emo JVL needs your advice in the comments!
