Sen. Kennedy: "Have you agreed with the president that you're going to lower interest rates?"
Warsh: "The president never asked me to predetermine, commit, fix, decide on any interest rate decision in any of our discussions, nor would I ever agree to do so."
Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD) questioned President Trump's Federal Reserve chair nominee Kevin Warsh about Trump trying to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook.

As Fuentes tries to popularize a racist, antisemitic movement based on the idea that he and his ilk are purer, stronger, smarter, and better, he has come to rely on the support of many fellow-traveling guys who are, frankly, losers.
❗️“Right now, there are no grounds for blocking 90 billion euros for two years. The European Union requested that Ukraine repair the Druzhba oil pipeline, which had been damaged by the Russians. We have done that,” — Zelenskyy.
Sen. Warren: "Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?"
Handsome Kevin: "ummm... errr... "
His response raises real questions about whether Warsh is independent of the President and if he has the courage to tell hard truths.
Plenty of criticism on the right of the #SCOTUS leaker and the Times’s reporting, but has anyone actually responded to the argument that Roberts’s assessment of “irreparable harm” and his refusal to balance the equities is completely inconsistent with his subsequent behavior in all the Trump cases?
"A bottleneck of B-listers": How California Democrats may lose the governorship of America's biggest blue state. "The glaring lack of candidate talent, political skill and personal appeal...has been the defining quality of the race" says @markleibovich.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...
If Trump gave up his increasingly untethered to reality view on the Fed's renovation project, he would have had his own personally selected Fed chair in office next month. Instead, there's no sense at all when Warsh might be confirmed.
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.
For those attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner this weekend, a small question:
When you're sitting there at your table, do you think it'll cross your mind that the guest of honor is actively covering up his role in a massive child sex trafficking operation?
Leaders like Magyar create templates for the future and for future governments. Like Mamdani in NYC who is creating a template for other cities. Sad that the US needs pointers on how to do the right thing, but since 2025 we no longer have a government--we have piracy.
Magyar also said Hungary wouldn't leave the ICC, as Orban wanted. This means Putin and Netanyahu can't come to Hungary anymore.
Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek) * ... @magyarpeterMP Until 31 May, the Orbán puppets may voluntarily step down from their positions. This applies to the President of Hungary, the President of the Curia, the President of the National Office for the Judiciary, the President of the Constitutional Court, and the Prosecutor General. On 12 April, the Hungarian people voted for a complete political transformation. If these officials do not step down voluntarily by 31 May, then - on the basis of the mandate received from millions of Hungarians — we will remove them from office.
Hungary’s Péter Magyar issues an ultimatum.

These people have given everything and they are still giving.
Thank you - to all our veterans.
Veterans Against Fascism protesters were arrested inside the U.S. Capitol building today as they staged a protest against Trump's war in Iran
When you learned about the Iran hostage crisis, did they teach you this part?
In November 1979, during the crisis, Black hostages and women were released first.
Ruhollah Khomeini said they were oppressed in the United States and not part of the power structure, so they weren’t seen as spies.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Monday she would demand explanations after four US and Mexican officials died in an accident over the weekend, adding she was unaware of collaboration between the US and the local government in northern Chihuahua.
🫢 omg.
The Liquor Cabinet.

BREAKING: Donald Trump just boosted Democrats’ chances of taking the House.
He said the quiet part out loud, “fair elections” means he loses power.
That’s not a warning, that’s a confession.
♥️🐾🐾♥️
I repeat:
Take away his phone
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
Most Americans know what it would take to fix our broken country
- Abolish Citizens United
- Outlaw foreign influence
- End the electoral college
- Tax the oligarchs
- Reestablish rule of law
- Strict separation of church & state
It’s whether we have the courage to change our self-destructive ways
