Coward.

This is the essence.

How now-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem felt about a president potentially federalizing the National Guard one year ago:

There it is. Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans’ next goal is to kick seniors off Social Security: “Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce.”

Today’s big winner in the Elon/Trump feud? Karine Jean-Pierre.

Good luck finding ayahuasca on the North Side, bro.

Commentary from #TheFinal5 on SecDef Hegseth stripping Navy vet Harvey Milk’s name from a ship: “Hegseth claims this is about restoring a “warrior ethos” — but what he’s really doing is erasing someone who doesn’t fit his idea of what a warrior should look like.”

If you need Megyn Kelly to explain the beef between Audra McDonald, Patti LuPone, and Kecia Lewis, something tells me you don't care about Broadway in the first place.

We had a fun group at Fox 5 that would occasionally socialize at Chad’s (RIP) and Clyde’s (RIP their late night hours). Covid hit, we moved studios, but we’ve resurrected the tradition and I’m grateful for it (thanks, Barking Dog of Bethesda). I truly enjoy time with our crew out of the studio.

Is the Big Beautiful Bill in big trouble? First, Elon Musk turns heel, now Marjorie Taylor Greene admits she didn’t read the bill and missed a provision that strips states from regulating AI for ten years. She voted for it anyway, and now wants the Senate to strip it from the final product.

Elon Musk is having a week.

D.C. Councilmember @cmzparker5.bsky.social: I spoke with Chief Smith this morning and I'm glad to report that the decision to close DuPont Circle Park is being rescinded. The Park is central to the LGBTQ community, and neighbors will be able to enjoy it this year for World Pride.

The Washington Examiner (the conservative news outlet) reports that Stephen Miller screamed at ICE officials: "What do you mean you're going after criminals? Why aren't you at Home Depot? Why aren't you at 7-Eleven?" Kinda blows up the narrative that they care about public safety.

People. I used a Throne restroom in DC this weekend. They’re legit. Clean, convenient, and sorely needed.

If Greg Steube’s proposal to rename Metro after Trump sounds familiar, that’s because he’s the same guy who tried to rename 4.4 million ft.² of ocean after Trump last year fox5dc.com/news/gop-law...

So Telegram’s CEO tweets this morning about a partnership with Grok, complete with a sizzle reel showing the product integration. X CEO retweets with a 💪🏼. Hours later, Elon Musk claims no deal has been signed after all.

The predictable arc of political stunt to book deal continues.
