Joe Scarborough Warns Democratic Leaders to Call Out DSA ‘Radicals’: ‘Define Your Party’ or ‘Trump Will’
“The host’s lengthy tirade came on Tuesday after he rolled back a viral clip from Fox News Sunday, when host Shannon Bream grilled Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) co-chair Megan Romer about DSA’s policy positions.
“Bream listed out points from the DSA platform, which included eliminating the Senate, replacing the Supreme Court, defunding the Pentagon, granting amnesty to illegal aliens currently in the U.S., abolishing prisons and public seizure of large corporations.”

mediaite.com3D Sketches Are The Most Annoying Thing
When you constrain the heck out of a line... still purple
Other times when trying to give the most gentle of constraints... THAT WILL OVERCONSTRAIN THE SKETCH NOOOOOOOO YOU CANNOT DO THAT
I have had to try and learn all sorts of weird quirks about 3D sketches to get them to constrain right and it still is finnicky. And of course yes, then you have to do something later like, change the overall width of the model, and the whole house of cards just implodes and the 3D sketch goes full contortionist on you sometimes.
Sigh.
New vs Used Dilemma, Dealer is Promoting 0% APR 0 Down
Hi ho,
I am looking at 2 similar Toyotas. We just bought one used through Carmax recently, and I see one at the Dealer new that is almost the identical except color, a few extras actually, and a few thousand less miles on it. 2026 model years both.
Our deal with Carmax is about 5% APR 60 months. The Carmax car cash price was $32k. We put $10k down. We financed ~$24k incl Maxcare 100k mi/60 month. Total sale price if we make the payments through the whole term regular is about $37k incl. our down payment (~$27 total cost of the finance + $10k down).
The dealer offer which we would have to run approval for (we both have +750 scores) is for $33k cash, 72 months @ 0%, 0 down. Including tax titles and some fees I have a mind to talk them down from, but call it $33k. It includes "Toyoguard" which seems to basically be a petit version of Maxcare and doesn't state what duration it is, and doesn't cover mechanical/electrical issues outside of the standard warranty.
Doing some math, our monthly payment would be identical within $2 on both options, one for 60 one for 72. But I'd get my down payment back, I could park that in a savings vehicle, and I wouldn't be charged 5% financing.
Aside from the 2 cars being different colors... what am I missing here. Because it seems like a difference of $4000 to $6000 less (assuming reinvesting the down payment and getting 3% APR back on it) to go with the dealer option but that's brand new vs used.
Toyota Safety Sense 2 vs 3 etc
I keep going back and forth on this. Wife was recently in a wreck that totaled our old Prius C. Loved that Prius C but it has no precollission.
Is there enough difference between 2 to 3 etc. to really justify paying thousands more for a vehicle though. Or are these entirely incremental upgrades like slightly more resolute sensors etc. or are any of these newer features absolute game changers
