"A 79-year-old man who has long dealt in chaos is now being consumed by that chaos. His episodes are becoming more frequent, his good days further apart. What he has lost is not a sense of decency or decorum, but any remaining sense of self-control." www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/4533...
I get emails like this a lot from folks who are clearly in need of mental health assistance.

HASSAN: I agree all should have access to healthy foods, but Trump has made it harder to afford groceries. Do high prices make it easier or harder for families to eat healthy?
RFK Jr: I would say that beef has dropped by 1% last quarter
HASSAN: No. Beef prices are up 20% since Trump took office
A new wholly corrupt settlement handing your money to Trump cronies.
It’s notable for several reasons:

🚨🚨🚨 HOO BOY. This is what I've been warning about:
GEORGIA reports effectuated #ACA enrollment is down *28%* vs the same point last year; at least *370,000* have already lost coverage:

“To say that President Trump is corrupt is to somehow understate the size, scope and magnitude of his corruption,” our columnist Jamelle Bouie writes.
Jay Bhattacharya has ordered that a paper showing the effectiveness of COVID19 vaccines in preventing severe disease and hospitalization be suppressed and hidden.
This man has been crying nonstop about political censorship for 6 years.
But he’s the one who is actually doing it.
Thread. When you hear someone claim they’re just enforcing the laws on the books, point out that’s false. They’re exercising their discretion to TURN as many people as possible who are here legally into “illegals” so they can deport as many as possible.
one of the problems with the pre-trump immigration system was that when you tried to explain to people how complicated and byzantine the process for coming here legally was, they simply would not believe you
trump has "fixed" this by simply making it impossible to come here legally
RFK Jr: "President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that's a 600% reduction."
Margo Martin @MargoMartin47 X.com Congratulations, Georgia Women's Tennis! The photo shows Trump and five white dudes in red ties standing in front of and completely blocking 10 young women
Priceless post from the official White House social media
goose meme moment
Sarlacc pit in a committee hearing
that’s multiple polls this week with his approval in the low - not mid - 30s
if republicans get absolutely wiped out in november, which seems likely, this could really fall completely apart as they desperately try to pivot to something less toxic
This is important and shocking news from NYT.
And it doesn’t mention the DRC third-country deportation program has already begun. ICE sent 15 immigrants from Latin American countries there five days ago.

"Few approve of how Donald Trump is handling the cost of living" – Overall: 33-67 – Immigration: 40-59 – Iran: 32-67 – Economy: 30-70 – Cost of living: 23(!)-76 "The nationwide poll was conducted April 16-20, 2026 using the AmeriSpeak® Panel, the probability-based panel of NORC at the University of Chicago. Online and telephone interviews using landlines and cell phones were conducted with 2,596 adults. The overall margin of sampling error is +/- 3.4 percentage points."
There's no other way to say it: This AP-NORC poll is atrocious for Trump.
– Overall: 33-67
– Immigration: 40-59
– Iran: 32-67
– Economy: 30-70
– Cost of living: 23(!)-76
37% of Republicans disapprove of his handling of the economy, 47% disapprove on cost of living.

New AP poll
Trump’s job approval rating falls to 33%.

Last year, the flu vaccine saved 12,000 lives and prevented over 100,000 hospitalizations according to the CDC.
Breaking news: The Trump administration’s fundraising arrangement for the White House ballroom project shields donor identities and excludes the White House from conflict of interest requirements, according to records obtained by The Post.
something about being in my late 30s really has me sitting at the window watching the birds jumping in the little dishes of water i set out for them in the garden, i can’t get enough of this shit despite having no preexisting interest in the business of birds.
20. The pervasive intolerance of religious belief in certain circles must be resisted. The elite's intolerance of religious belief is perhaps one of the most telling signs that its political project constitutes a less open intellectual movement than many within it would claim.
This bullet point from Alex Karp/Palantir’s latest diatribe strikes me as the best representation of the whole project.
“The elite’s intolerance of religious beliefs…”
Let me stop you right there, Alex. You just made that up. That isn’t a thing in 2026 America.
Trumpism is, essentially, Calvinball.
