My world changed forever today. The woman whose hand I held for more than 28 years is no longer here for me to reach for. My beautiful Yolanda passed away. I have written thousands of words in my life, but I do not have words big enough for this. For more than 28 years, Yolanda and I were almost never apart. I don’t mean that figuratively. We had lunch together every day. Dinner together every night. We worked together, traveled together, laughed together, fought battles together, made plans together, grew older together, and went to sleep knowing that whatever tomorrow brought, we would face it side by side. She was not simply my wife. She was the rhythm of my life. My best friend. My partner. My conscience. My sounding board. My greatest defender. My favorite person in the world. There was never really a Tony without Yolanda. There was just us. We lived. God, did we live. We traveled. We laughed until it hurt. We built memories in ordinary restaurants and extraordinary places. We turned lunches into hours-long conversations and dinners into strategy sessions about life. We experienced victories, disasters, adventures, disappointments, and moments so beautiful I wish I could somehow climb back inside them. We did not save life for later. We lived the hell out of it. And I am eternally grateful that we did. Then cancer came. And anyone who followed Yolanda’s journey knows exactly what happened next. She fought. She fought through treatments, surgeries, hospitals, pain, setbacks, and moments that would have crushed most human beings. Again and again, her body would be knocked down. Again and again, Yolanda got back up. She fought like a champion. And somehow, through all of it, she remained Yolanda. Stubborn. Funny. Strong. Beautiful. Defiant. A badass. Right to the very end. Cancer may have finally taken her body from us. But it never defeated the woman. It never touched the love between us. And it will never get the final word on who Yolanda Seruga was. Her LIFE gets that word. Her courage gets that word. Her family gets that word. The thousands of people she touched get that word. And our love gets that word. To all of you who followed this journey, prayed for her, shared our updates, sent messages, contributed financially, checked on us, and carried us through days when I did not know how much more either of us could endure: Thank you. Please understand something very important. Yolanda knew. She knew you were there. She knew people she had never met were praying for her. She knew thousands of strangers had somehow become friends standing beside her in this fight. Your kindness mattered. Your prayers mattered. Your generosity mattered. You gave us something priceless during some of the darkest days of our lives: You reminded Yolanda that she was not fighting alone. And neither was I. I held her hand through this battle just as I had held it through our life together. Now I am sitting here trying to understand something my heart simply refuses to understand: For the first time in more than 28 years, my partner is not beside me. No lunch together today. No dinner together tonight. No familiar voice from the other room. No hand reaching for mine. There is an emptiness where an entire human being—my entire world—used to be. But if there is one thing Yolanda taught me, it is this: Love does not disappear simply because someone dies. Twenty-eight years does not vanish. A lifetime of mornings, meals, laughter, arguments, adventures, whispered conversations, inside jokes, and holding hands does not suddenly become nothing. She is stitched into me. She helped make me who I am. And whatever days I have left on this earth, part of Yolanda will be walking through them with me. I would choose her again. Every time. Every life. Knowing how this story ends, I would still walk straight toward her. Because 28+ years with Yolanda were worth the unbearable price of missing her now. For those asking how to help, the kindest thing you can do is remember her, say a prayer, and hold the people you love a little tighter. And because this fight left thousands of dollars in medical, caregiving, and related bills still outstanding, anyone who feels moved to help me close out those final expenses in Yolanda’s memory can do so here: givesendgo.com/yolandas Please never feel obligated. The love, prayers, and support you already gave her meant more than I can possibly say. Thank you for loving my wife. Thank you for fighting alongside us. Thank you for praying for my girl. She fought like a champ. She lived like a champ. She loved fiercely. And right to the very end, Yolanda Seruga remained exactly what she had always been: One hell of a badass. I love you with every piece of my heart, baby. I loved you yesterday. I love you today. I will love you for the rest of my life. And someday, wherever this road leads… I will find your hand again. Until then, my love. ❤️

If @huntryerson’s reporting is accurate, Coxon owes the public a direct answer: Was DEY. booking interviews while he said he wasn’t working with any third-party organization? People can sincerely fear AI and still work with a PR firm. But when those fears are shaping a national debate over regulation, the public deserves to know who is helping deliver the message.
Former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon became a media superstar after going public with his AI fears. He insisted that he wasn’t working with any third party organizations. Familiar sources told us a different story: DEY., a PR firm representing many of the most prominent AI safetyists, was booking his interviews. One source, who had direct knowledge, even said DEY. preemptively booked Nate Soares, a prominent AI safety figure, for interviews that directly overlapped with Jacob going public. Jacob working with DEY. is notable for two reasons: first, as mentioned, he previously said he wasn’t working with third parties. Second, we are in the middle of a national conversation about the future of AI that is actively determining how we regulate the most powerful technology in the world, largely thanks to the panic stirred up by Jacob — and it’s in the public’s interest to know who, exactly, is behind it. Scoop from @huntryerson 👇

Wicked Brazilian Justice Alexandre de Moraes Caught in Major Scandal – May End His Tyrannical Reign The chickens come home to roost. Wicked Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, the man behind the socialist takeover of Brazil and punisher of all good conservatives, is caught up in a scandal that may end his tyrannical career. How wicked is Brazilian Justice Alexandre de Moraes? Moraes returned former President Jair Bolsonaro back to prison based on trumped-up charges immediately after Jair’s eighth surgery due to the aftermath of a 2018 attempted assassination. The popular former president remains in prison to this day. He pulled out the same playbook to destroy his political opposition that Democrats used against President Trump. This is insane! ☠️ nytimes.com/2026/09/24/world…

Yolanda shared Jelly Roll’s “I Am Not Okay,” and I keep coming back to it. My love, I wish I could ask what you were feeling when you shared it. I wish I could sit beside you, hold your hand, and listen with you again. I’m not okay without you. I miss you in every part of my day. I love you, Boo Boos. Always. ❤️ piped.video/Qop5XLgwkNc

Socialism Hits Record High in New Gallup Poll as Young Americans Turn Away From Capitalism Gallup finds support at its highest level since tracking began, with a massive generational divide. —Big League Politics Socialism has reached its highest level of popularity in Gallup’s polling history, with more than four in ten Americans now saying they have a positive view of the economic system. A new Gallup survey found that 43 percent of U.S. adults view socialism positively, the first time the figure has climbed above 39 percent since Gallup began tracking the question in 2010. Capitalism remains more popular overall, with 55 percent holding a positive view. Free enterprise stands considerably higher at 77 percent, while small business dominates the survey with a 95 percent positive rating. But underneath the topline numbers is a striking political and generational divide. Democrats Increasingly Favor Socialism Over Capitalism Among Democrats, 65 percent now hold a positive view of socialism, compared with just 35 percent who view capitalism positively. The gap has widened substantially over time. Gallup found that Democrats’ positive rating of capitalism dropped from 42 percent in 2025 to 35 percent this year. Their positive rating of socialism, meanwhile, has remained around two-thirds. Socialism first surpassed capitalism among Democrats in Gallup’s polling in 2016. It now ties free enterprise among Democrats at 65 percent. Republicans show almost the exact opposite pattern. Just 14 percent of Republicans report a positive view of socialism, while large majorities continue to view capitalism, free enterprise, and small business positively. Independents Shift Toward Socialism One of the biggest changes in the new poll came from independent voters. Gallup found that 45 percent of independents now view socialism positively, up eight percentage points from 37 percent last year. According to Gallup, this year’s overall increase in socialism’s popularity came entirely from independents rather than Democrats. Socialism also now receives a higher positive rating among independents than big business, although capitalism, free enterprise, and small business remain more popular with the group. Young Americans Prefer Socialism to Capitalism The generational numbers reveal an even sharper divide. Among Americans between 18 and 34 years old, 57 percent view socialism positively while only 43 percent view capitalism positively. The pattern reverses among Americans 55 and older. In that group, 65 percent view capitalism positively compared with only 34 percent who view socialism positively. Americans between 35 and 54 give the two systems roughly comparable ratings. The findings continue a longer-term shift Gallup has documented in Americans’ perceptions of economic systems. Since 2010, positive views of socialism have increased seven percentage points. Over the same period, positive views of capitalism have declined six points and positive views of free enterprise have fallen nine points. Still, Gallup cautioned against interpreting the results as Americans broadly abandoning market economics. Small business remains overwhelmingly popular, while free enterprise continues to receive significantly higher ratings than socialism across the country. Gallup’s separate research has also found that Americans who see positive aspects in socialism tend to cite economic security, access to basic services, and equality, while critics most commonly associate it with government control, inefficiency, and weakened incentives. The latest survey was conducted August 3-24, 2026. Whatever the explanation for the shifting attitudes, the political divide is unmistakable: socialism has now crossed the 40-percent threshold nationally for the first time in Gallup’s polling, while among younger Americans and Democrats, it receives a higher positive rating than capitalism. bigleaguepolitics.substack.c…

Bravo! 300 DOJ attorneys saw Harmeet Dhillon coming with a voter roll and a red pen and immediately discovered their passion for the private sector. 😂 Harmeet, please escort them out with the same energy you’re bringing to mass deportation. Apparently, the self-deportation program is already working in Washington. 👋

No regrets, just facts. If I could do it over, I wish I had gone harder. Don't be mad at law enforcement, be mad at our rulers that invited an invasion. The compassion of this country will be used against us if we do not act now to remove them.

EXCLUSIVE: Signers Of AI Safety Letter Warn Regulation Could Lead To “State Control” And “Ideological Domination” “There’s already lots of topics the models won’t speak frankly about” said one. Left-wing evaluators, said another, want to control AI so it’s not “leading to inequality and reinforcing stereotypes” —Michael Shellenberger Last week, more than 200 leading researchers and policy figures urged artificial intelligence (AI) companies to invite independent and outside evaluators into their firms to assess and report on risks. They did so less than a week after the CEOs of the world’s leading AI companies near-simultaneously endorsed a pause in AI development and endorsed the idea of bringing in evaluators. “We believe that all frontier AI companies should embed evaluators to independently assess AI risks,” they wrote in an open letter, “including evaluating the systems themselves and any significant incidents of real-world harm.” But the letter’s phrase “any significant incidents of real-world harm” does not say what counts as harm, and could be used to justify government censorship or, worse, the manipulation of AI models to generate ideological content to users rather than serve as truth-seeking devices. And now, two of the letter signers, deeply alarmed by the risks of AI, have gone on the record in exclusive interviews with Public to warn that AI regulation could lead to “state control” and “ideological domination.” At the same time, Public has identified at least four letter signers who worked within the censorship industrial complex and advocated greater censorship. This conflict within the AI evaluator community could become more important as governments around the world begin to regulate AI. The push for AI safety comes at a moment when Barack Obama and liberal-Left leaders in Britain, France, Germany, Australia, and the European Union have called for AI regulation and, at the same time, issued new calls to “fight misinformation” and “hate speech” through new censorship laws. Already, the European Commission designated ChatGPT a very large online search engine under the Digital Services Act (DSA) on August 31, which gives OpenAI until January 2027 to begin assessing and mitigating systemic risks including those to “electoral processes and public security,” both of which governments, NGOs, and social media firms have used as justification for censoring legal speech. Britain’s government promised in February to “force all AI chatbot providers to abide by illegal content duties in the Online Safety Act or face the consequences of breaking the law.” The law allows censorship based on “the risks of harm to individuals in the United Kingdom presented by illegal AI-generated content.” Australia’s government has introduced new censorship legislation that would cover any service that lets users “generate material by means of artificial intelligence” Ideological control of the models is not the same as taking down content. But it could be even more pernicious, directing users away from and toward particular content and framings, without them knowing it. The two letter signers who are outspoken against censorship have significant credibility within the AI evaluator community. They have both done high-level work, one for the US government and the other for Anthropic, which is currently leading the AI race, on risk, safety, and regulation. public.news/p/exclusive-sign…

God, please help me. I opened our calendar today and saw all the plans Yolanda and I had made for the next few years. Trips we were going to take. Birthdays we were going to celebrate. Anniversary plans. Trips with family and friends. Days we thought we’d have together. Her name is still there, beside mine. I cannot stop crying. Lord, I don’t know how to face a future we planned together without her. Please help me through today. 😭❤️🙏
Our grandson sits tucked beneath a blanket, looking down at a little screen. I wish I knew what he’s thinking. I only know that his Lita should be here to scoop him up, make him laugh, and watch him grow. Yolanda, we will tell him your stories. We will show him your pictures. And every time he asks about you, we will tell him how completely you loved him. ❤️

This is insane! We still have zero transparency! Two Years Later, Second Butler Victim Dies Mainstream media? Crickets! Donald Trump and Corey Comperatore were not the only ones Thomas Crooks shot during the Butler, Pennsylvania, assassination attempt. Coraopolis man Jim Copenhaver wore a pair of bullets, too. He succumbed to his wounds this week. Copenhaver’s family announced his death on Thursday, describing the mid-70s veteran as a “devoted husband, father, and grandfather” who “believed deeply in the freedoms and ideals upon which this nation was founded.” Copenhaver spent his final two years dealing with permanent injuries from the shooting, including bullet fragments still lodged in his body. He underwent multiple surgeries. Copenhaver’s loved ones and the American public as a whole deserve to know what really happened that day. With whom did Crooks interact before taking aim at the president? Who helped him practice his shot? What foreign actors influenced him? Permanent Washington’s refusal to address those basic questions suggests there is more to the story than most people realize. dailycaller.com/2026/09/24/v…

The Biggest Lie? Sweden Was Never ‘Neutral’! “Neutral” is a brand, not a fact. Ask instead: Who does this country’s intelligence share with? Who does its defense industry sell to? Whose war plans does it quietly assume? Answer those, and neutrality evaporates. Sweden was never neutral. It was strategically patient — and it played the world for decades.

Texas PAC — a Senate Leadership Fund (SLF) vehicle tied to Senate Majority Leader John Thune — is the group that could spend up to $200 million supporting Ken Paxton against James Talarico in the 2026 Texas Senate race. It has already reserved well over $100 million in ads, mostly broadcast TV in the Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin markets. The largest slice is advertising. Texas has many expensive media markets, so TV time costs a lot. - Local television stations in the four big markets absorb most of the reservations. Political ads are high-margin inventory for stations, especially in a statewide race that saturates the airwaves through Election Day. - Media-buying firms. Station contracts for Texas PAC have identified FlexPoint Media as the agency placing buys. National GOP groups routinely use a handful of specialized buyers (historically including firms such as Main Street Media Group and Mentzer Media for SLF). These firms take commissions (often around 15% on gross buys). - Ad production and digital vendors. Spots still have to be written, filmed, edited, and placed on streaming and digital platforms. Consultants, pollsters, and data firms take smaller but still substantial cuts. - Platforms and remaining inventory. Whatever is not on linear TV goes to cable, connected TV, and digital (Google, Meta, etc.). Super PACs also spend on strategy, research, legal/compliance, and fundraising infrastructure; those vendors profit as well. A reported large transfer from Texas PAC toward Paxton’s campaign apparatus would further concentrate dollars with the candidate’s own vendors and discounted candidate-rate ad time. Who is not the primary beneficiary? Ordinary Texas voters do not “profit.” The spending is an arms race to influence them. Small donors are not the source of this $200 million pot; large contributions to SLF and its Texas affiliate fund it. Talarico’s campaign has raised more directly from individuals, but it has been outspent on the airwaves once national Republican groups arrived. In short: Paxton and Senate Republicans get the political benefit. Texas TV stations, a small circle of Republican media buyers and consultants, and the platforms that carry the ads get the cash.
