Warren does at one point single out Epstein, but the full question is nuts: Warsh didn’t disclose $100 million hidden behind entities he owns, so are any of those assets owned by the Trump family or the Chinese government, have any of them facilitated money laundering, any set up by Jeffrey Epstein?

What is the psychedelic drug ibogaine that Trump wants fast-tracked? Ibogaine's potential to treat symptoms of traumatic brain injuries has been heightened by veterans who have gone to clinics in Mexico.

Ibogaine has been touted as a way to treat traumatic brain injury and opioid addiction, which President Trump ignited wide interest in when he signed an executive order meant to spur research into it and other psychedelics.

200,000 acres of Native Hawaiian land. 100 years of federal trust obligation.

Trump's move: reclassify them as a racial group, not a tribal nation. Same land. New legal category. Zero obligation.

That's not a budget cut. That's a legal erasure. #taxtherich

GALLEGO: Earlier today, you told Sec. Kennedy that Trump never demanded you to cut interest rates. Is that your sworn testimony?

WARSH: That is, senator.

GALLEGO: Okay. Well someone here is lying then. Because Trump confirmed he pressed you on interest rate cuts.

What does Trump have over his people that they are so eager to sacrifice their souls and every shred of their dignity to grovel at his cloven hooves in such abject fealty? Their obsequiousness transcends far beyond being merely surreal.

As Trump's war on Iran continues, reminder that his own son-in-law Jared Kushner — who is leading negotiations with Iran — stands to profit from lucrative contracts with its regional rivals.

War gives dictators like Trump (and his family) more power and more wealth.

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.

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.

70 Minnesota children.

Delta Air Lines, who likely flew nearly all of these kiddos out of MSP, could publicly condemn this and end the practice tomorrow, as the airlines did in 2018 with family separation, but it’s easier to stay silent.

It’s horrible, yes, but it’s also kind of funny that all of these people are too afraid of Trump to say in public that he lost that election. Every Democrat should ask each one the same question just to emphasize what craven buffoons they are.

Odd thing here: he cites religious objections, but appears to be limiting this to the flu vaccine in particular.

Religious objections to vaccination were actually relatively rare pre-COVID, but have grown since the pandemic.

But I'm unaware of religious objections to *only* flu vaccines?

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.
