DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin: "What the Democrats need to do is explain to the American people why they want open border and why they don't want to deport these illegals that are truly running our cities and strait--- our, our, our streets. At some point they need to be held accountable."
But he had bone spurs so he was forced to miss it. bsky.app/profile/atru...
SORKIN: There's a whole number of very large companies, including Apple and Amazon, that have not sought reimbursements yet for the tariffs. From what I understand, part of the reason is they're worried about offending you.
TRUMP: I think it's brilliant. They got to know me very well. I'm honored.
Trump: "I'd love somebody to buy Spirit Airlines. Maybe the federal government should help that one out. I told my people."
Trump: "I have to be careful because if I do trip or fall, it's gonna be the biggest story. That's why when I get out of those planes, I walk nice and slowly. I'm not looking to set any speed records."
Trump on Saudi Arabia: "I think they're doing great. I spoke to him yesterday. They're fighting. They're helping us. The ones that aren't helping are NATO. We don't need them. We will never need them, actually."
Joe Kernen wraps up the interview with Trump after 40 minutes: "We could talk NATO, but I know you've, uh, obviously got a lot to do"
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin refers to Democratic members of Congress as "kamikaze Democrats"
Trump: "Never allow the Traitor Democrats like Low IQ person Hakeem Jeffries, or Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, or the totally corrupt Fake News Media such as the phony and decaying Wall Street Journal, the Failing New York Times (Subscriptions way down!), or dying '60 Minutes,' to demean or criticize Operation Midnight Hammer, which totally obliterated the Nuclear Dust locations to the point where bloodthirsty Iran has been unable to get to it, or dig it out. Space Force has cameras on every inch of the 3 sites that were so brilliantly hit last June! Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT"

Trump on refunding proceeds from his illegal tariffs: "We're giving a lot of that money back to people that hate our country, so I'm not happy with the Supreme Court"
This Saturday may be the most embarrassing moment in the history of the White House press corps. I’ll be talking about this all week. Here are my thoughts today. Full show: open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...

1. Why is Mike Huckabee, the sitting U.S. Ambassador to Israel, involving himself in a dispute between Israel and Poland?
This is outrageous.
Huckabee is in Israel to represent the interests of the United States, not the State of Israel.
I love science!!!
What a debacle.
Trump blames Democrats for no Iran deal.
"Arizona U.S. Sens. Mark Kelly and Ruben Gallego are urging the Trump administration to put a halt to two planned detention facilities in the state as opposition to them grows and questions continue to mount...
"The two Senators have requested a response by May 1.

CNN put together a montage of Trump saying as far back as March 9 that his war against Iran "is going to be finished pretty quickly," then him saying that same thing over and over for the past six weeks
Trump says he’s winning the war by a lot.

we've noticed and i'm glad he's getting help
How do you get fired from the Trump administration for having an affair with a subordinate and drinking on the job? We’ll have to ask Lori Chavez-DeRemer, because I thought it was a requirement.
Trump just issued a last-minute warning to Virginians that if they vote YES on the redistricting referendum tomorrow, he will lose power:
“If the Democrats get additional seats, they’re going to be making changes at the federal level.”
“It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.”
- Harry Truman
As Trump proves often, the reverse of this is also true.
It’s amazing how much you can fuck things up when the only thing you care about is getting the credit.
This company is out of control and its CEO appears in nearly every public appearance to be disturbed in some way.
There are companies our government should have nothing to do with anymore—e.g., those associated with Elon Musk—and Palantir is on that list.
Satirical news site The Onion said it has reached an agreement to take over conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ InfoWars company, in a move that could help repay the more than $1 billion he owes the families of Sandy Hook shooting victims.
Want proof that the world has turned totally upside down? A year ago no one would have dreamed that these people would be saying what they are saying now, which is more or less exactly what the people they hate have been saying for years about Trump.
He didn't change; they have.
