Here are highlights from Stage 6 of the Tour de France.

Here is Kurt Schlichter’s latest column.

To the editor:

In leaked private communications with London, the British ambassador to the United States described the Trump administration as “inept,” “insecure” and “dysfunctional.” He also expressed other very harsh criticisms of the president and the administration based on what he has seen and what he has heard from others in the White House.

Those are unvarnished views not couched in diplomatic language—honest, sometimes brutal assessments that governments expect to hear from their diplomats.

The fact that a diplomat privately expressed unflattering opinions on a foreign leader is not news, but in this case it provides more validation that the Trump administration does not have “the best people.”

Note from KBJ: We elected Donald Trump precisely because we’re sick of global “elites” such as the British ambassador. Who cares what he thinks?

Yesterday afternoon, at a Tom Thumb station in Arlington, Texas, I paid $2.489 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline. With my Tom Thumb card, it came to $2.089. What're y'all payin' in your neck o' the woods?
