The exchange at the Oval Office before the press pool entered: Trump to Bukele: "Home-growns are next. The home-growns. You gotta build about five more places. It's not big enough." Bukele: "We got space." Everyone laughs. youtu.be/myFL_QyW4QY

This is why the far right are in awe of Orban... authoritarianism is all about the money and power.

Bondi on Garcia: "That's up for El Salvador if they want to return him. That's not up to us."

Remember I told you that the plan is to get the “minerals deal” with Ukraine, then “realize” you can’t get the profits on it (infrastructure isn’t there, and… war), so then Russia could “buy US out” of the deal and hereby own it all? Think who actually needs the pipeline to have EU’s dependence ⬇️

WASHINGTON (AP) — AP wins reinstatement to White House events after judge rules government can’t bar its journalists, citing 1st Amendment.

Oh, how I miss President Obama and competent government. 🇺🇸

Trump declares war on state climate laws.

I'm devastated and heartbroken. Staff at the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) got the ax. Most likely means the Sixth National Climate Assessment (NCA6) is also cooked. USGCRP was the glue across the Federal family on all things climate - reducing duplication and making efficiencies.

This new White House executive order says that the US Attorney General is going to prevent states from implementing democratically passed laws regarding climate change and clean energy. It scarcely needs stating at this point that this is wildly, unambiguously unconstitutional. Dictator shit.

Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong mentions the key factor that the WH ignores completely - US surplus in export of services

With Alien Enemies Act contempt hearing over and the big Q looming. This @axios.com report is worth rereading. "How it happened: White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller 'orchestrated' the process in the West Wing in tandem with Homeland Security Secretary Kristy Noem."
