Republicans are accusing Democrats of cherry-picking from the Epstein files only the evidence that makes the President look particularly bad. Obviously, Democrats should be focused on the trove of other documents in the Epstein files related to Trump.

But we know what they say about ‘ol “lyin’ Chris Murphy”, lyin’ all the time. Most lyinest politician there ever was. Wait, I’m thinking of some other guy.

Breaking: After a classified briefing with Cabinet officials, Sen. Chris Murphy says: "I walk away from that briefing still under the belief that we have not obliterated the programs."   "The president was deliberately misleading the public when he said the program was obliterated."

The fact that the administration has repeatedly tried to trigger shaming of anyone who would question the success of the mission as raising any doubt as to the competency and capacity of our “brave pilots” instead of identifying the mission and reinforcing what’s actually known and not known…

Most of this “press conference” is this lunatic yelling at the media. This guy is so obsessed with his press coverage that he can’t even function.

They do have a disaster plan. It’s them. They’re the disaster.

Breaking WSJ: The newly appointed head of FEMA acknowledged in private meetings that with two weeks to go until hurricane season, the agency doesn't yet have a fully formed disaster-response plan. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

How likely is it the POTUS did this because Steve Inskeep gave him a tough interview?

NPR@npr.org

In an executive order, President Trump directs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to stop funding NPR and PBS, the nation's primary public broadcasters.

In their defense, the WH has said they can’t share details because they’re classified. So a press briefing isn’t the appropriate setting. We might need to get them in a Signal chat.

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!" I'd like to invite you to go fuck yourself.

Because we will really feel so much better if they build more prisons here in this country rather than sending Americans to El Salvador.

WATTERS: The president was musing about sending some of the most horrible people in this country down to that mega prison. Is that legal? BONDI: These are Americans who he is saying have committed the most heinous crimes in our country

It’s ok. I’m sure all of President Trump’s totally transparent financial disclosures and tax filings will reveal he’s not making money off the whole fiasco.

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA): "I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"

We’re weren’t making war plans on a private LLC’s chat app. We were just chatting about highly sensitive, specifically detailed war plans on a private LLC’s chap app. -Defense Secretary Hegseth

This weekend marks the 60th anniversary of the Selma March, a landmark event in the American civil rights movement. Martin Luther King, Jr. led thousands on a march that reached Montgomery on March 25.

Sheehy: "Our economy has been on a sugar high for a long time ... what we're seeing here from this administration and what you're gonna see from this Congress is re-disciplining to ensure that our economy is based on private investment and free-market growth."

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

Here's the full email about the classified and personnel records destruction, which just hit the public record in labor groups' litigation against the Trump admin. The groups say: "Defendants are, as this motion is being filed, destroying documents with potential pertinence to this litigation."

@propublica.org reporter Brett Murphy with an explosive scoop. This is insanity.

Sorry but if he can’t “man, woman, camera, TV”, he’s not fit.

Trump to address top CEOs, Wall Street bank executives today - Bloomberg. I’m sure he’ll smooth things over and quell the tumultuous markets with his exquisite deal-making and humble diplomacy.

It really was too high wasn’t it? Trump’s doing us all a favor. Now the markets low enough that we can actually buy in! And going lower! MAGA!

Thank the lord. Like all Real Americans, I was super annoyed by how high the stock market got under Biden.

In honor of Trump’s America First rebranding efforts, GMC has announced it will change its packaging of luxury trucks and SUVs. Look for the GMC Sierra McKinley at a showroom near you.

Ok but “we’re going to prosecute the shit out of these guys” is not a great message for folks who have a history of rejecting election results.

Fred Wellman@fpwellman.bsky.social

I don’t know who our nominee is going to be in 2028 but I can tell you I won’t support any Democrat that refuses to promise investigations and prosecutions for the many crimes of this Administration. We’re not going to play this stupid game again of upholding “norms and traditions.” Period.

Well, I’ll never look at strawberries the same way ever again.

The specks on strawberries are not seeds, but are actually fruits, called achenes. Each achene houses one seed. The red tasty thing you eat is an accessory to these fruits. Like a delicious handbag.
