Thinking back to December when Trump's advisors said he would be traveling the country this year to promote his economic agenda — because he felt he wasn't getting enough credit for it.
Instead, he started a needless war, skyrocketed inflation, and pummeled consumer sentiment.
Trump on Joe Kent: "I'm not a fan of the guy ... His wife was killed. He remarried fairly quickly."

Democrats should run this year on returning tariff revenue to Americans. Trump already said today he’s going to fight this in the courts. An easy mode way to be on the right side of the affordability issue.
This is a long-established authoritarian tactic: obliquely introduce the idea of this kind of threat - “their families” - but not precisely enough to incur any causal blame if something God forbid happens. I mean, Jesus. Just such dark stuff.

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.
“California will miss billionaires when they’re gone.”
The best part of this Washington Post editorial is the comments, which are exactly what you’d imagine.

Thank you!
And you as well :-)
It is unfathomable that the USG lawyers would sign off on a no-survivors boat strike (no get of jail free card).
There's clear precedent dating back to World War II trial of Germans for that very act, which lawyers know well.

There's a new word: affordability. Let's talk about affordability. Old word was groceries. Now it's affordability. Anyway, I still need money.

Uhhhhh, what the actual...???
The thing is, Jake has been a scoop machine since joining Wired a few months ago. Conde Nast just made Wired worse off with this action.
It was just a few days ago that he broke the Nancy Mace police meltdown story.
When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”
SNAP BENEFITS, which increased by Billions and Billions of Dollars (MANY FOLD!) during Crooked Joe Biden’s disastrous term in office (Due to the fact that they were haphazardly “handed” to anyone for the asking, as opposed to just those in need, which is the purpose of SNAP!), will be given only when the Radical Left Democrats open up government, which they can easily do, and not before! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT
Trump confirms he is weaponizing hunger

Some experts believe the justices won’t take up Davis’s case at all, while others say they will, and see it as a vehicle to overturn marriage equality and toss it back to the states — which the Court did in Dobbs — removing the constitutional right to abortion.
Where is the religious right condemning this?
The US is the purple line bottoming out. Our economy may still roar, but we’re killing ourselves. Hoarding wealth, refusing to even ensure our kids have enough to eat. That line is an indictment. It reflects our warped values.
"But, you know, from Trump's perspective, I'm sure, it means he thinks that, this is a real tough thing to do to really show the world that we're not afraid to test our weapons, maybe we're not afraid to use them," WaPo's Josh Rogin told CNN.
Decisions of the utmost gravity and consequence to life on this planet made by Trump unilaterally based on completely false understandings. But one thing's clear. He really admires Rocket Man.
what? There's no naval shipyard in Philadelphia at all, let alone one that can handle the specialized needs of submarines, or of building nuclear propulsion systems.

Thank you! It’s like all my buds from Twitter moved here. A lot more fun here too!
Oh look — my favorite Apple accessories maker, Woolnut, in Sweden, is currently not shipping to the U.S.
Thanks, Donald Trump.

About this Florida vaccine story:
When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough.
We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated.
“Oh, they’d have died.”
Bluesky, prepare yourself for hundreds of Minneapolis residents now sharing pictures of themselves in our wonderful, lovely parks. We have a LOT so, really, get ready.
