Narrator: he didn’t

Trump said he would get a peace deal within 24 hours, and now is poised to lose the war. Why? Because he is the weakest U.S. president in our lifetime. He's told Putin he can continue the war and pay ZERO price. No sanctions. No new weapons for Ukraine. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/26/u...

My statement on the charges filed against me:

Baldwin to RFK Jr: "Is funding for Alzheimer's research centers DEI? Because you're holding up $65m for 14 of those centers in 9 states, including UW Madison. Is funding for cancer centers DEI? Because you're holding up $47m in cancer center support grants at 9 cancer centers in 8 states."

There is no reason that anyone holding any significant political authority should be this ignorant about a very basic constitutional guarantee. In a healthy constitutional order this would be the end of her public life. www.axios.com/2025/05/20/k...

WARREN: Can POTUS legally tell the IRS to change someone's nonprofit status? BILLY LONG: I'm not able to answer WARREN: You can't read these words and tell me what those words say?! LONG: I can read the statute and I did WARREN: Then tell me what they mean!

“In the first three months, the Trump family has become $3 billion wealthier, so that’s a billion dollars a month.”

Feeling great yet?

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

Before the Trump administration took office, we revealed Russell Vought’s plan to demonize civil servants and “put them in trauma.” Since then, we've doubled down on our coverage of government agencies and federal policy. If you have information you can share, here's how you can get in touch.

“The president was unaware of Hegseth’s order, as were other top national security officials in the meeting.”

Trump is destroying America’s key economic edge - that the smartest people in the world want to come here to innovate and start businesses.

The articles of impeachment write themselves

I’m still baffled at how America took one of the basic principles of the presidency — the occupant shouldn’t be able to benefit financially from the office — and just said, nah, that just doesn’t count for this one guy.

A Harvard Med researcher is approaching her 3rd month in a crowded (90 women to a room) Louisiana detention center, supposedly because she didn't declare frog embryos as she was re-entering the US. She fears for her safety if she's deported to her native Russia. www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

It’s said that we live in a post-fact society. We disagree. Now, more than ever, facts matter, and ProPublica is going to continue to track how and when patently false statements are injected into conversations about the country’s future. (Published Feb.)

"Seven times he said MS-13 was written on his knuckles... that is the level of delusion, and gaslighting, and dishonesty in this White House... is Donald Trump mentally competent?" From my debate on the 100 days with former Trump ambassador Carla Sands on BBC Newsnight tonight:

New- Chris Krebs’ “membership in Global Entry has been revoked. Krebs, who has repeatedly attested to the security of the 2020 election, told CNN he finds it hard to believe this isn’t another act of retribution…” @jaketapper.bsky.social www.cnn.com/2025/04/30/p...

I love adding this one data point to economic charts. It works every time.

In the last few days, the president fell asleep at the pope’s funeral, said he wasn’t making decisions in the White House and fell for an obvious photoshop. Cool. Cool cool cool.

“I could … but we have lawyers who don’t want to do that.” This means nothing less than the Trump Administration is in open defiance of the Supreme Court of the United States.

The economy Trump inherited was the envy of the world. Within weeks, consumer confidence was plummeting, businesses were pausing expansions and investors were questioning the safety of Treasuries. Forecasters debated which was more likely: a recession or stagflation. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Container ship departures from Asia are moving toward pandemic levels. Dock workers, truckers, and other Americans will be losing work. Consumer prices will rise. Maybe that's more than wokeness right now.

MR PRESIDENT HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?

To be clear, nothing - NOTHING - Joe Biden said 4 years, including his debate meltdown, comes anywhere close to the insanity, unreality, unhingeness, of Trump repeatedly insisting - even when the interviewer is letting his crazy lie pass - that it was a real image of his knuckles

Trump 2.0: Armed fed'l agents burst in (apparently a no-knock warrant). Since they'd worked the case, they knew who they were looking for. Instead, they found a mom & her 3 girls. Nonetheless, they sent them out into the rain in underwear & then took all their $ as evidence. kfor.com/news/local/w...

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

Not so efficient, eh?

As Trump continues to sow chaos and break the law, polls show a majority of Americans are increasingly unhappy with his performance. But do they see the authoritarianism? Do Trump voters care about his lawbreaking? @anneapplebaum.bsky.social and I discuss.

this is just a horrible, pathological liar. we know that. but they know they've lost the public on this one. the escalation is the giveaway

Wrote about the administration’s dishonest rhetoric about immigration and how its obvious, grotesque dishonesty about Kilmer Abrego Garcia is exposing a much deeper rot. Gift link: wapo.st/4j9jVc1

Officials investigating the 8 agencies found unjustified killings, excessive force, debtors’ prisons, retaliation against police critics, racial discrimination, unlawful strip searches and undercover officers having sexual contact with sex workers. By @tophersanders.bsky.social

I can't understand how Marco Rubio can be so unsympathetic to immigrants, cruel even. His parents did not become citizens until 1975 - he was born in 1971. His beloved maternal grandfather entered the U.S. illegally, w/o a visa & was about to be deported but then was allowed to remain as a parolee.

Despite a court order, the White House bars a reporter and photographer from the @AP from an Oval Office news conference with Trump and his counterpart from El Salvador while the administration appeals the decision. @dbauder.bsky.social apnews.com/article/trum...

this is Mohsen Mahdawi, the green card holder who was just arrested by ICE for rendition at his citizenship interview

Bone chilling. A court ordered Kilmar Abrego Garcia to stay in the United States. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 that he was illegally removed. Trump is pretending he won the ruling 9-0. 1/ You may not think this case means anything to you. But let me tell you why it does.

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.
