Phang: If you see claims that those convictions have been overturned on appeal — it’s bullshit. They have not been overturned on appeal. I have no idea—strike that—I have every idea where that comes from. It comes from stupid, far-right people who don’t know how to read and don’t know the law.

Newsom: He continues to double down on stupid with this stuff. We can joke about the taco thing, but… people are making billions of dollars. The financial markets have anticipated Trump’s incapacity to be consistent—to offer any kind of stable rationale for his economic policies.

Foxx: This is the American Dream story they all claim to support. I’m a first-generation American, raised by a single mom in Section 8 housing. SNAP benefits—food stamps—put food on our table. Those social safety nets—they are not handouts, they are hand-ups.

Conley: The stakes are too high—failure is not an option. And yet, we don’t have serious people taking this stuff on. This is the moment where we should be showing the world that America is a superpower. Instead, we’re showing them it’s amateur hour. And the American people deserve better.

Reporter: An investigation found the MAHA commission report cites studies that appear not to exist. Leavitt: I understand there were some formatting issues…It does not negate the substance of the report Reporter: Is AI used to put together these reports? Leavitt: I can’t speak to that

Phang: If you have to resort to deceit to get something done, that tells me what you’re doing is wrong. What’s happening is a dup-and-scoop: people are being duped into going to court, their cases get dismissed, and then they’re scooped up by ICE and deported under expedited removal.

O’Leary: They edited her word salad to make her sound better Phillip: When is Joe Biden going to sue Fox News over editing Donald Trump's comments in an interview to make it sound better than it was then? Everybody should just sue.

Ingraham: A federal court just blocked the majority of Trump’s tariffs. Kennedy: You mean a federal judge has intervened with the other two branches ability to make policy? I'm shocked.. I think it’s pretty clear he has tariff authority

Phang: Pardons and commutations—this is not something that should be driven by political motivations. Does it happen here and there? Of course it does. But is it ever this brazen, this grifty, like it is under Donald Trump? This pardon-palooza is a Trump specialty. It’s disgusting.

Perino: Do you think they have a messenger now that is effective? Jessica: Yeah, I do. I think Bernie Sanders and AOC are very effective. There is something compelling in the energy that AOC and Bernie are bringing and you see that in the reaction of people going to these rallies..

Watters: Jessica think she can sell that agenda that Trump is this guy that hates the poor and is just out for Wall Street. It’s the exact opposite.

Constituent: Trump and his cabinet in addition to being totally unqualified and inept are breaking laws by ignoring federal judge's orders. When are you going to do the responsibility you are elected for by holding the executive branch accountable up to and including impeachment?

Trump: We have the hottest country anywhere in the world. I went to Saudi Arabia. The king told me, he said, you have the hottest comp— we have the hottest country in the world right now. Six months ago, this country was stone cold dead. We had a dead country.

via @acyn.bsky.social: Musk: I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, which increases the budget deficit, not decrease it, and undermines the work the DOGE team is doing… I think a bill can be big, or it can be beautiful. But I don’t know if it could be both.

Lara Trump: Jake Tapper called me about two months ago, actually. He said I have this book coming out. And I know everybody is saying that I should apologize to you. I plan, whenever the book comes out to go on TV and I will say you were right and I was wrong. And I guess to his credit, he did that.

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live. If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

Trump’s Memorial Day post attacked his enemies, not honored our fallen. He bungled Putin criticism, blamed Zelensky, surrendered tariffs, pushed crypto scams, pardoned a corrupt sheriff—and called Nippon Steel “Nissan.” And much more. Catch up:

Phang: These are bright, talented young men and women about to embark on the next stage of their lives. And what they got was a rambling, incoherent, dementia-laden rant. Just pure diarrhea of the mouth from Trump. He has no faculties left that remain uncompromised.

Trump just pardoned a corrupt sheriff who was found guilty of taking bribes in exchange for law endorsement badges. Those who bought the badges used them to drive in emergency lanes, bypass TSA lines, and for other favors.

Weigel: Authoritarian—that’s a fine word to use. If we were watching Canada do this, or France do this, right now—say, ‘We’re not letting any Americans into the school for political reasons’—we’d probably use that word. So I don’t know why it would be anathema when it’s happening here.

MAGA republicans come to Canada hoping we will drop our guard. They claim the "healing has begun." Lol. They still have a criminal oligarch in the White House and we are still a democratic nation. Here's my talk with @meiselasb.bsky.social on Canada's resistance. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3G4C...

Crockett: It is time for Republicans to start calling him out and start questioning his mental acuity, and whether or not he is equipped to serve mentally. We know when it comes down to his criminality, he is not qualified to serve, but this is just absolutely deplorable.

Angus: Our PM went to Washington to meet with Trump—in what looked like a cheesy bordello decked out in gold lamé. When Trump was asked about Canada giving up its sovereignty, he said, “Never say never.” Every Canadian knew exactly what that meant. For a sexual predator, no means no means nothing.
