Trump 'locked out' of Iran Situation Room meeting after he 'screamed at aides for hours'

The reports that Trump was kicked out of the situation room for being too erratic are much more remarkable when you consider that for most of the past year the situation room has been a blanket fort in his living room at Mar a Lago.

White House Leak Reveals Trump Booted From Briefing After Hours-Long Freakout Even the president may have doubts about his war.

He's too unstable to be in the Situation Room. Totally normal, right?

AOC: “If the determination is that Donald #Trump cannot be trusted in the Situation Room & in unfolding scenarios, then he's not fit to be president”

Every room, especially the Situation Room, becomes a liability when he’s in it.

I still can't believe Trump had to be taken out of the situation room and the Nuclear football hidden from him yesterday and it NOT THE FUCKING HEADLINE EVERYWHERE. We are doomed.

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

BALDWIN: Do you think NIH should fund less cancer research?

RFK Jr: No, they should fund more, & one of the few agencies that got a raise in the budget was NCI

B: That increase is less than $1m for an institute with a $7b budget. That's a .01% increase. It wouldn't even cover one additional grant

WARREN: That's not my question. Are you refusing to tell us if you have investments in vehicles set up by Jeffrey Epstein?

KEVIN WARSH: Those assets will be sold if I'm confirmed

Well, at least the BBC is covering this.

Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."

The Brits appear ready to shame the US news media into covering this, distracted as they are by gazing at their own navels ...

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement. Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

It’s critical to note that this clip should be taken as evidence that Trump is (obviously) taking cuts of the funds being used to build his new white house ballroom, the arc, etc

He killed over 160 young girls at a school and threatened to end their entire civilization out of respect and admiration

Beef prices just hit a record high. A pound of ground beef in many stores now costs more than the federal minimum hourly wage. These people are so out of touch it’s ridiculous.

HEINRICH: It's closer to $6 in my state

WRIGHT: It's over $8 in California

Rep. Robert Garcia: "Unfortunately, I have to announce that Democratic members will not participating. This roundtable is not a real hearing. It's set up to appear like one. We should be clear about why that's happening. Last week, Pam Bondi skipped a legally required deposition ... "

Wonder what the president will make worse today.

When Donald Trump gave Live Nation-Ticketmaster the green light to keep overcharging fans, guess who stepped up?

State Attorneys General. Jurors. Everyday people who are tired of getting scammed by giant companies.

This is how we win.

Several people with signs like this at the Boston Marathon today

Not a President……a terrorist!

This coming from a guy who received five draft deferments during the Vietnam era, including one medical deferment that was attributed to “bone spurs” in his heels.

Warren: "Why try to end independence of the Fed? Bc Trump's economic failures are causing him political problems, he wants the Fed to artificially juice the economy Having a sock puppet in charge of the Fed would also give the president access to the Fed's powerful authorities to enrich himself"

CNN compilation of Trump repeatedly saying the war in Iran will end "pretty soon." If this were only a comedy skit, it might be humorous. As it is, this is tragic.
