His whole life, Trump has always had someone else around to bail him out of the messes he creates: his father, Allen Weisselberg, the "adults in the room" in his first term. Now all those protectors are gone and he is openly begging for someone to save him from his own folly.

We need to: ✅ overturn Citizens United ✅ ban Congressional stock trading ✅ get dark money out of politics To get corporate influence out of our politics and return it to the people.

I believe there is no historic precedent of a dominant world power dismantling its own influence unilaterally. This is a colossal self destruction.

We are outraged and deeply distressed that armed federal agents came onto our campus—making arrests on the very ground where, in 1942, Japanese American families were forced to board buses bound for concentration camps. It was a deliberate act of provocation and intimidation.

Had to add this quote bubble, couldn’t help ourselves 👀 Also nice private jet pic flex Jeremy 🙄 —Comforting to know that while you strip health care and food assistance from Tennesseans and prices and unemployment spike… you’re flying around on PJ’s ✈️

Not “allowed” to report on? Report!

ICYMI — @MarshaBlackburn, who hasn’t had a town hall since 2017 & refuses to debate as she runs for governor, just had a roundtable in Memphis with only certain media invited: “allowed to listen but not directly report”🤔 Q: Why would y’all even show up? What country is this?

Bless his heart.

WATCH: “Trump has abandoned all ideals of free trade. 🇺🇸 no longer feels the same sense of self-confidence… a growing insecurity…” Ex Singapore foreign minister George Yeo talks about Trump with major “bless his heart” vibes — reminding us what an adult sounds like.

“Reality TV politics” is so much better for media coverage than boring policies that help people.

This past week, the 79-year-old president announced he’s ended six wars (some that have been going on for centuries), asserted that windmills drive whales insane, called for Beyoncé to be prosecuted, claimed Obama committed treason and complained a convicted pedophile “stole” teenage girls from him.

“I never saw somebody so angry.” I keep wondering, why are all those border agents angry all the time? Seriously.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social

Border Patrol says he was at the red mark, 65 feet south of the border, when he "made an abrupt starboard turn and struck the port bow of the Coast Guard small-boat," causing him to capsize. He says that's ridiculous, he was in Canadian waters and was going to shore to talk when they hit him.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

My friends freaked out when I said I reused plastic water bottles. YOU’LL DIE FROM MICRO-PLASTICS!!!!!! So this makes me smile, in a sarcastic kind of way.

Q: “How can we ensure due process if we’re not allowed to know the names and charges?” NOEM: *word salad* 🥗 200+ people were snatched by ICE in NASHVILLE — Kristi Noem sheds no further light on who or why, just unconvincingly says “we’re following the law” over + over again.

let's take stock here: (Democratic) Presidents, via the Dept of Education, can't cancel student debt because statutes don't clearly authorize it. Republican Presidents can cancel/shut down the Dept of Education because, even though only Congress can shut down departments ..., ... 🤷‍♀️ YOLO?

BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to move forward with the abolition of the Department of Education. It gives no explanation for its order. All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25... From Sotomayor's dissent:

Just in case anyone is falling for it, Trump continues to hurt Ukraine with too few weapons provided too late. The real message sent yesterday Russia is there will be no real pressure on them for the foreseeable future. And the whole secondary sanctions thing is a red herring. Won’t happen.

Thoughts on this ceasefire: - Israel is *lighting* Tehran up right now. Some of the most intense strikes so far - Khamenei says Iran will not surrender - Trump says ceasefire will hold “forever” which is fucking laughable - nobody cares that 400kg of uranium is missing?

He says he’s no longer a “divisive political asshole.” I hope he — and many more — can make this transition honestly.

Q: A security alert went out from US Mission to Mexico warning Americans to use caution when using dating apps. Apparently people are getting kidnapped. Can you provide info? BRUCE: It's something I'm not read into enough to even riff about, but clearly if that's occurring it's a serious dynamic

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

Last night the delusional president stood in front of spineless Republicans and said proudly the impact of his tariffs would be “legendary.” This is what happens when an utterly ill-equipped sociopath, who is incapable of feeling others’ pain, is handed extreme power.
