Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

Blumenthal: "What world is he living in? It is not only contrary to the facts and the truth but utterly despicable. A disgusting betrayal of a country that has bled and fought and died for freedom ... the president's surrender is pathetic and weak."

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

When FDR struck an over-the-heads-of-eastern-Europe deal at Yalta in Feb 1945, Stalin had 300+ divisions in the field vs Nazi Germany. The impending unilateral Trump sellout of Ukraine occurs when Putin is battered and almost broke.

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

From an FDA probationary employee: the firings are coming from outside the agency without cause and with zero input from supervisors (as promised.) More firings expected between now and Tuesday. Do not open the termination email before you download your documents and performance evals.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Connolly: "Imagine lecturing Europeans about being afraid of their own electorate when it's Trump and Musk who are firing FBI agents because they dared to do their duty, who are having loyalty tests at the NSC...you're gonna lecture others about political tolerance of free speech? That's a bit much"

Prosecutors say this is Weihong Hu, an Eric Adams donor and NYC hotelier, passing a wad of cash to the head of Exodus, a city-funded emergency housing nonprofit, in exchange for 2 checks to her catering biz. Not every day you see a pic like this in a press release. We'll have a story up soon.

Susan Collins gets the NY Times treatment. (tinyurl.com/bdfdmmcn) Metaphor seems to be she's showing up at a 5-alarm fire w/ only two buckets of water, but I think she's more accurately seen as the member of an arsonist gang who's committed the least (third-to-least?) amount of arson. #MEpolitics
