“As a businessman, Trump spent a lot of his career profoundly in debt,” writes @davidfrum.bsky.social. “His bankers often bailed him out, and he seems to believe that the Federal Reserve should do the same for his presidency.”

“The Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Index is probably the best metric to understand if the U.S. is ‘bringing manufacturing back home.’ And it's absolutely cratering: -26.4, one of the lowest readings in memory.”

I'm at the US Courthouse media room. I'll try to live blog for @lawfaremedia.org the hearing in the case over the dismantling of CFPB before Judge Amy Berman Jackson. Unions claim Trump Adm has ordered reductions in force that violate her injunction even as narrowed by the DC Circuit. /1

Strengthening our aerial firefighting fleet will help firefighters protect Arizonans from increasingly dangerous wildfires. The Senate just passed my bipartisan bill to do this, and I encourage the House to pass it as soon as possible.

"Rather than threatening bombs and war and taking our military's focus off the Indo-Pacific, Trump should focus on diplomacy unless he is prepared to let a costly war with Iran be his main accomplishment heading into the 2026 midterms." - MG (Ret.) Paul Eaton, Senior Advisor to VoteVets

"At some point these cuts are going to make NOAA break. I am just so mad because our ability to help other people is going to go down … This is going to hurt people.” Trump and Musk's gutting of NOAA and the National Weather Service will have real, devastating consequences for millions of people.

Papers worldwide condemn Trump, in addition Trump has lost the Daily Mail. When you lose the Daily Mail you are a global pariah. “Trump on Friday presided over one of the greatest diplomatic disasters in modern history.” "A spectacle to horrify the world"

I've said it before and will say it again -- the Trump administration is not acting like one that fears democratic accountability next year or in 2028. Draw your own conclusions.

Elon updated DOGE, claiming to have fixed the mistakes we all pointed out. But instead of correcting them, he just added more false claims. He even inflated his so-called “savings” total from $55 billion to $65 billion, when in reality, the actual increase is only from $2 billion to $2.3 billion.

It is important that people understand and accept as fact that our government is compromised. I don't mean compromised in some cloak-and-dagger sense, I simply mean that this government no longer accepts core democratic principles and is angling toward an autocracy that's part of a New Axis of Evil.

This is a British newspaper. The British will always try to bring the truth to their papers. The right-wing American press would spin it in favor of Trump. Always. And that's because, in essence, Americans are cowards. The reactions of all politicians and the right-wing press are proof of that.
