Puppy got nice comments from everyone on Mount Mitchell today because he looks like a snack.

Oh. So there’s no deal.
Truth Social post: “
If I make a deal with Iran, it will be a good and proper one, not like the one made by Obama, which gave a random massive amounts of cash, and a clear open path to a nuclear weapon. Our deal is the exact opposite, but nobody has seen it, or knows what it is. It isn’t even fully negotiated yet.”

Hang on, the WHAT? The fucking WHAT report?
Karoline Leavitt tweet: “President Trump’s bold economic agenda is delivering real results for American families—with new data from DoorDash’s State of Local Commerce report confirming that inflation has been tamed, everyday prices are beginning to drop, and wages are growing.”

I think @joshtpm.bsky.social gets the story right. 1. Timeline fits when Epstein & Trump actually fell out, more than any of his other explanations. 2. We already know that he’s a rat and frequent anonymous/pseudonymous caller (“John Barron”)… talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/is-th...

The “secondary” tariffs on countries that buy oil from Venezuela give away the game on Part 2 of this fiasco: countries that band together (like China & Japan) to work around the U.S. tariff regime will come up for another round of even harder (and more U.S. isolating) tariffs.

Wondering how much to talk about #SignalGate? Trump talked about Hillary’s emails literally every day 2015-16 and is in fact still talking about them. That’s how much you have to talk about something to make it A Thing. It will feel stupid and gauche but that’s the job.

“Tillis told people that the FBI warned him about ‘credible death threats’ when he was considering voting against Pete Hegseth’s nomination for defense secretary” and “if people want to understand Trump, they should read the 2006 book Snakes in Suits: When Psychopaths Go to Work.” #ncpol

“They’re Scared Shitless”: The Threat of Political Violence Informing Trump’s Grip on Congress
With the president smashing norm after norm, even lawmakers within his party have feared for their personal safety, and at least one has told confidants that it has swayed his decision-making.

Trump/Musk seems like classic V.C. pitch dynamics. “Disrupt” this, “blockchain” that, doubtful he knows what they’re talking about. Right now he’s snowed & thinks he’s landed the golden goose, but he doesn’t have any patience as an investor. When the returns don’t materialize, he’ll cut them loose.

Brace for Twitter Files: Govt Edition. How will you react to news that $X mil of USAID funding over a decade is unaccounted for? To some fed. contractor (a competitor of SpaceX) having DMed mean stuff about Trump on Twitter? To “analysis” that tax-preferred 529s are mostly used by coastal libs?

People saying Elon’ll steal the trillions of Treasury dollars he just hacked, but I bet the whole plot is cross-referencing it with Twitter DMs he also controls. If you’re a contractor, federal employee, or retiree who ever said something mean about Trump on Twitter, hope your checks still clear.
