So we've reached the part of the timeline where a sitting United States senator goes on national television, scolds Israel for not being neighborly enough with Lebanon, and just... pretends Hezbollah isn't a thing. Like it's a neighborhood HOA dispute over a fence line. Tim Kaine — the same guy who almost became Vice President of the United States, let that sink in — sat down on CNN Wednesday and delivered what might be the most delusional foreign policy take of 2026.

A brand-new Emerson poll just dropped showing that two Republicans — TWO — are leading the race to become the next governor of California. Republican Steve Hilton is sitting at 17 percent, followed by fellow Republican Chad Bianco at 14 percent.

Not committing fraud. Not stealing hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars through fake daycare centers and phantom hospice patients. *Filming* it.
