Breaking News: The law firm Jenner & Block sued the Trump administration, making it the second firm recently targeted by President Trump to fight back in court.

The problem is what about the group chats that were not shared with a reporter.

Dems are skipping the spin for the 2026 Midterms — the new slogan? “We Told You So.” 🎤💥 Plastered on signs, stickers, maybe even the moon, it’s the ultimate flex. One strategist calls it “historic honesty,” the GOP calls it “smug,” and voters just sigh, “Yeah… they kinda did.” 🤷‍♂️ #PNN #FAKENEWS

Per @jayinkyiv.bsky.social: “UK's most read newspaper joins in, Trump can never meet the King after all this. Only place for Trump is up Putin's ass.”

President Trump signed an order designating English as the official language of the U.S., the White House said. It appeared to be largely symbolic but rescinded a Clinton-era mandate that required agencies and recipients of federal funding to provide language assistance to non-English speakers.
