I’m looking forward to reading the Atlantic’s cover article on how American politics went insane in the membrane.

I  do love the “TV Show Recap” genre of articles. I think the best writers are in that field. Well, after education writers. Here’s a good one on the Game of Thrones. And another one… our friend, Megan, weighs in on Sunday’s episode.

Three hits for Donald Trump this morning:

• 1) He ain’t got no campaign money. $1.3 million compared to Hillary’s $41 million. Maybe people don’t want to give money to a guy who has bragged for months that he’s too rich to need donations. Well, okay then.
• 2) Biggest donations towards Trump’s campaign came from companies with names that include the letters T, R, U, M, and P.
• 3) And he fired his campaign manager just a few weeks before the conventions.

First day of summer. For some reason, my kids believe that IKEA’s breakfasts are fine dining, so we’re heading off there for some horse-meat sausages. Mmmmmmm.
