    The beltway media notices, at long last, that Vice President Joe Biden may be a little…off. But tomorrow is another day.

  • The job of keeping Secret Service agents away from temptations on the road and between nutjobs and the White House falls officially into the lap of Joe Clancy, who has been serving as interim director since the resignation of his predecessor.
  • Ukrainian troops lose ground to pro-Russian separatists as the ceasefire collapses before anybody noticed it had arrived. Putin used the opportunity to taunt Ukraine, of course.
  • Hillary Clinton and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) held a closed door meeting in a sign that the leading contender for the donkey party's presidential nomination seeks support from the party's left wing.
  • Jeb Bush polishes his foreign policy credentials, reinforcing fears of the horrifying possibility of a Clinton-Bush dynastic battle. 
  • The federal government considers extending the deadline for Obamacare enollment, probably to minimize the inevitable backlash from those slammed by penalties.
  • The University of Pennsylvania's new sexual assault policies took a beating from law professors concerned about the absence of any pretense of due process.
  • With Greece on the verge of defaulting on its debts, the European Central Bank has offered to loan the country's banks more money. Why not?
