Today was a grim, terrible day for the United States and the cause of democracy. Putin, along with other dictators around the world, can finally look at Trump with confidence and think: one of us. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The “Epstein Files” is my favorite ongoing chimera. Your uncle on Facebook is convinced that there is a trove of documents that will prove every celebrity he doesn’t like is a pedo. Trump is going to expose this bc he knows the real dirt - this is why there are all those photos of him and Epstein.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

👀 DOJ acknowledges making two significant errors during a court hearing last week on efforts to dismantle USAID 1) It said only 500 employees had been placed on leave. Actual number was 2,140. 2) Said only future contracts were stopped. Existing contracts were also stopped.

Elon Musk has shared this fake E! News video on X, which claims USAID has paid millions to Hollywood celebrities to visit Ukraine. The clip, now community noted, is the work of a well-known Russian disinformation campaign that creates fake videos of news outlets to push anti-Ukrainian narratives.

A reminder: in the past, when a singer's mic cut out during the U.S. National Anthem at a hockey game in Canada, the entire arena stepped in, singing every single word of the Star Spangled Banner together. Tonight, thanks to Trump, Canada is booing during the National Anthem.

We're expecting to hear Canada's full response to Trump's tariff plan in about an hour, but premiers have already pledged responses — from encouraging citizens to boycott U.S. goods, to doubling highway tolls for vehicles with U.S. plates, to removing American booze at government liquor stores.

Trump is openly violating the law on a vast and unprecedented scale and everyone is acting like it's normal. NPR had a long story about finding a rare shrew. NYT said he was disregarding "legal niceties." This is an attack on the Constitution as profound as the attempt to overturn the 2020 election.

How things have changed in the past 20 years. In 2009, President Obama’s nominee for HHS Secretary, Tom Daschle, who served in Congress for 26 years, dropped out because he, as a private citizen, hadn’t paid taxes on a car and driver provided to him by a financial services firm.
