Newsom: We talked for 20 minutes, this issue never came up. I kept trying to talk about LA, he wanted to talk about all these other issues. He never once brought up the national guard. There’s no working with the President. There’s only working for him. I will never work for Trump

Zelenskyy: "Trust me, we understand the Russians much better, the mentality of the Russians, than the Americans understand the Russians. I know for sure Putin doesn't want to stop the war."

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

donald trump is so dumb and insecure he feels the need to parade around tanks to make up for his massive deficits in intelligence and integrity

Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

She’s unhinged and unwell. The whole administration should probably be investigated for crimes and treason against the constitution at this point.

It follows tabloid logic: create a fight to get clicks and views and raise the salience of the profile of those in the fight. It’s distracting from the One Big Bullshit Bill and from Palantir’s efforts to surveil the American people

I think that relating this to victim blaming in rape culture is not a stretch at all. Blaming pedestrians for being killed by cars is so backward, it’s difficult to know where to begin.

The interviewers here demand that a mayor has to pledge not only to believe in Israel’s right to exist (yes good and fine) but that it must be a Jewish state. Imagine how they would react if interviewers demanded another politician pledge they believed in the UK is a Christian state.

At the end he says that the US wants to restore certain products. So why not tariff this specific products? Why a blanket tariff? These folks just aren’t smart

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

A country that can mobilize military-grade hardware to a street corner in minutes, but can’t fund housing, transit, or health care, is not a serious country.

do these people have any shame at all, do they hear themselves? How is this different from Maoist thinking? Or the Stalin personality cult?

Trump is weak. MAGA is pathetic. The Mara-Lago accords are more worthless than the toilet paper I wipe with. This administration is the most incompetent we have ever had and they will drive the US economy into a tailspin.

Let’s annihilate the US economy all for $150 billion in revenue, which is basically less than 3% of the federal budget.

Doesn’t help that we have a mayor who doesn’t seem to care at all if transit in his city implodes. When telling Springfield what his priorities were earlier, he didn’t list transit. Very frustrating

It’s kind of silly to me that the suburbs expect to dictate how transit works in north eastern Illinois. I use the CTA multiple times daily to get to the gym, go to the grocery store, or get dinner, as do hundreds of thousands of Chicagoans. How often does your average suburban use their transit?

If Joe Biden posted something like this Hannity would be roused from his sleep to anchor special coverage. But Trump posts apeshit conspiracy theories and the mainstream press yawns. His craziness has been completely normalized.

Another day where it is abundantly clear that the worlds of American news media and think tank analysis are incapable of coming to terms with a world where an American President's brain has turned to mush
