SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Does arresting the wife of an enlisted man and mother of four US citizen children, a person who’s been here since she was 6 years old, make our country great again?

NEW: ICE is trying to deport a mother of 4 while her husband is at Fort Benning in Army basic training. When she went to pick up the family's military IDs, Navy personnel turned her over to ICE. She's been in the US since age six. With @nancyayoussef.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Hey, I notice you're trying to influence political candidates during an election. That's really inconvenient, politically speaking. Wouldn't it be better to wait until after the election, when the candidate has everything they need from you, and you have zero leverage?

Trump: "Please right your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can't even breath. That I will go out with my family, my friends, I'll do it any way - I don't care if I'm registered or not, I'm going to try to cheat like hell..."

So according to his shirt, he is disqualified from playing in the WNBA, no?

He was wearing an ant-trans shirt and one of the players confronted him during a time out. He stepped towards her onto the court and security intervened. apnews.com/article/sky-...

Every Fox News live shot today from Trump's post-rapture-like fair on the National Mall has been hilarious. Here's a supercut:

WOW - Trump crashes out & cuts his interview w/ Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged "You're either crooked or you're stupid. I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her" "I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads

They all think theyre honorable men protecting family and country when theyre mostly just suburban oafs wearing Carhartt and flannel and driving clean pickup trucks to their office building and back to their stucco home while larping in their head that theyre all Duttons

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

This is the 82-year-old state senator the FBI just raided because she successfully redistricted Virginia to match racist Republican redistricting efforts. They targeted her because she's ruthless and effective. They don't want anyone else to play within their new rules.

And if you show this clip to them, or their shitty consultants, they'll take notes and focus-group it and determine it's effective and then send out a memo instructing members to say "wah wah" a lot because people love "wah wah," like "wah wah" specifically is the thing about it that was good.

Stevens to RFK Jr: "To top it off, Mr Secretary, I got a copy of HR-944. You know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office, you have gutted America's public health! You should be ashamed."

Everyone *does* need to watch this, but most importantly, Democratic leaders still obsessing over centrism, bipartisanship and reaching "middle America" need to watch it

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

Everyone needs to stop what they’re doing and watch this video. “It seems like there’s a lack of diversity here today, and it’s mostly people who look like you and me, and I just…?” This lady’s response is🔥

Trump: "I guess it would be illegal. Could you imagine? They spend millions and millions on a campaign. They're losing and they beg me for an endorsement. I give it, they win by 30 points. And I get nothing. If I could sell that -- is there a way? Is there a way I can get paid for that, Marco?"

The cropping on this version of the photo is more flattering than the wide, where it’s clear that he is not only hiding behind a chair but also not helping the others in that room who were actually trying to secure the room. Photo Credit: Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call via AP
