WAPO: “.. Trump initially said it was Qatar that reached out and offered him the luxury jet free of charge. In fact, it was the Trump administration that first approached Qatar this winter about acquiring the plane ..” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Quote of the day. The challenged Tariff Orders will be vacated and their operation permanently enjoined.

“.. It was not clear precisely when and how the tariff collection machinery would grind to a halt. The decision gave the executive branch up to 10 days to complete the bureaucratic process of halting them.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/b...

Kash looks like a toddler in a high chair.

“.. guess that $2+ trillion in tariff revenue is looking less plausible now.” - @conorsen.bsky.social @mikezaccardi.bsky.social

Secretary of Transportation says you should be scared of public transportation. Four million people will ignore him, justifiably, and ride the NY subway tomorrow. 🤡

Gov. Hochul:

US Court of International Trade just issued decision in case against Trump tariffs filed by Liberty Justice Center and me. All "Liberation Day"/IEEPA tariffs ruled illegal, and blocked by injunction! See link for opinion. I will have much more to say soon: www.cit.uscourts.gov/sites/cit/fi...

Coverage picking up now. www.barrons.com/articles/tru...

“The court does not read IEEPA to confer such unbounded authority and sets aside the challenged tariffs imposed thereunder.” Opinion: www.cit.uscourts.gov/sites/cit/fi...

“.. The unanimous ruling of a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of International Trade strikes a blow to one the central planks of Trump’s economic agenda at a time he is seeking to use tariffs as leverage ..” @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

BREAKING: Federal court says Trump exceeded his authority to impose tariffs under IEEPA. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The secretary of transportation literally goes on tv every day to talk about how pants-pissing terrified he is of public transportation

We will curse the TACO moment one day soon

“.. Paramount Global in recent days has offered $15 million to settle, according to people familiar with the situation. Trump’s team wants more than $25 million and is also seeking an apology from CBS News, one of the people said.” @wsj.com $PARA www.wsj.com/business/med...

Yup.

CARNEY: “Seventy-five cents of every (Canadian) dollar of capital spending for defence goes to the United States. That's not smart.” 🇨🇦 www.bbc.com/news/article...

How to get yourself quoted in dozens of lawsuits.

It’s hard to try to improve things in DC if you have no respect for public service, have no idea what you’re doing, and are mainly focused on steering government contracts to yourself.

President Trump has now pardoned 9 members of Congress convicted of crimes

“..’Don’t ever say what you say, that’s a nasty question,’ Trump told a journalist who asked for his response to the acronym. ‘To me that’s the nastiest question.’” @politico.com 🌮 www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

(Nikkei) - Yields on ultralong Japanese government bonds are wielding greater influence on the global market as fiscal concerns mount in Japan and the U.S., in addition to growing interest in the notes from foreign investors. t.co/FTPN3YiHhB

This dude is not the president. I don’t know who is. But someone is making a fck ton of decisions and it’s not him.

“.. Trump is now 0-3 in suits involving the handful of firms that opted to defend themselves in court ..” @axios.com www.axios.com/newsletters/...

You can tell MAGA people don't travel because literally the nicest cities on earth have world-class public transportation and that public transportation is *the thing* that makes them nice, world-class cities

BILELLO: “.. Over 12% of US credit card balances are now 90+ days delinquent, the highest since 2011.” @officialbilello1.bsky.social bilello.blog/newsletter
