Who won the debate?

The presidential debate got spicy. CNN says Kamala Harris rattled Trump with biting remarks, throwing him off balance.

AP News agrees: Kamala Harris certainly took control and delivered focused strikes while Trump floundered.

Politico says Kamala Harris's confident composure had Dems nodding early on.

Newsweek’s opinion editors were split 2-1 in favor of Harris as the victor. The one who picked Trump said that the moderators were against him, and that Kamala didn’t answer questions directly.

Fyre Festival II

NBC: Fyre Festival II is coming, and Billy McFarland says it'll be in April 2025 -- tickets sold out already, despite McFarland's history of scamming people.

NME expresses doubts, citing the absence of booked artists and Fyre's notorious history. McFarland is not someone to trust blindly -- he's a convicted fraudster.

People: Hey, maybe Fyre Festival II will be a luxurious turnaround: Plans for adventure-filled escapades and yachts could redefine the narrative.
