the dominant predator in the western hemisphere – at least, now that Jeffrey Epstein is dead (cognitive infrastructure)

A Republican lawmaker detailed his wish list for US intervention in Latin American counties with oppressive regimes: Honduras, Nicaragua, Colombia. “Look, the world is a messed-up place. If an oil rampage is what it takes to spread democracy, maybe that’s what it takes, OK? Stop being such babies. So which of these tyrannical dictators are we targeting next?”

That would be Greenland, an independent Arctic territory controlled by US ally Denmark. That’s right, Greenland, because the only thing we hate more than a brutal authoritarian regime is whatever the complete opposite of that is.

“The point is: we need Greenland. Why? For their freedom, or their oil, or for national defense – look, I don’t remember what excuse we’re using. Another Republican lawmaker, argued that “it’s important that we have a stake in Greenland. We are the dominant predator, quite frankly, force in the western hemisphere.” Yes, Trump is the dominant predator in the western hemisphere – at least, now that Jeffrey Epstein is dead. —Ronny Chieng

President Trump on Twitter today continued to push for his proposed border wall saying, "A big new caravan is heading up to our southern border from Honduras." Oh, my God. That means the only thing between us and them is the border patrol, I.C.E., a fence, mountains, a river, Mexico, and Guatemala. --Seth Meyers

A man in his 50s recently experienced so-called debilitating night blindness after accidentally taking an entire bottle of sexual-dysfunction medicine. Which makes you wonder, what medicine did he mean to take an entire bottle of? That's right. He has debilitating night blindness from taking sexual-dysfunction medicine. Luckily, now he's got an excellent walking stick. --Seth Meyers
