California Republican announces he's not going to read news reports about the debate and made up his response in advance. Then blames an intern for the 12-hour-early Twitter post. Will he change his strategy and actually read the news?

Happy 100th birthday, President Carter! Thank you for your friendship, your fundamental decency, and your incredible acts of service through the @CarterCenter. Michelle and I are grateful for all you’ve done for this country.
Please forgive the enthusiastic amateurs or even pro journalists who use unfortunate phrases like "great ground video," when their pictures really do capture the devastation that has ruined buildings, roads, and taken many lives. This whole thread of photos tells the story.

I saw a transcript of this, but found it hard to imagine what the "performance" was like, or how an audience responded. "Economic Club of NY" is new to me, but the venue explains why "numbers" was a word in this connect-the-dots stream-of-babble.

Has the New York Times seen my muttering about possibly abandoning Wordle? Requiring "z" in the Spelling Bee today was a challenging and amusing alternative. Apparently the word Zoot is not in the Bee's dictionary (without suit?), but I did okay. nytimes.com/badges/games/v…
