President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

Weekly jobless claims hit a four month high. Prices of eggs have skyrocketed, gas prices are up. It’s hard to fathom the collective amnesia our country had on Trump in the economy. When he left office, his approval was in the 30s, yet people were foolish enough to buy what this con man was selling

It was obvious they were lying about Musk's $400M contract with the government to build armored Teslas. The Biden administration was going to give him a few hundred thousand dollars—then, after Trump took office, they increased it to $400M. After they got caught, they doctored the records.

Something that’s very clear is that Trump is old and checked out. He wants to play the role of president but has zero interest in doing the job and is happy to outsource the real work to Musk, Vought and a crew of feral zealots.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Investing in economic growth. Funding our schools. Improving the services working families and the vulnerable need. We cannot compromise on them, especially when we face the uncertainty of the federal government’s haphazard “ready, fire, aim” tactics toward everyday Americans.

My least favorite thing Democrats say is, "We can't normalize whatever Trump and Musk are doing." It's silly. Trump has been elected twice. This is the new normal, and it's on us to show people why it shouldn't be. Why our approach to governing is better and how we're going to deliver for them.

Look at this. Palantir, $PLTR, dropped 10% today on news of CEO Karp's plan for new $1.2 billion sale and Pentagon 8% budget cut. Did someone know? Maybe. Today there was heavy activity in $PLTR put options, with traders adding $600,000 into the $120P contracts within a 5 minute window. Unusual.

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.
