If I'm running a news room now, I assign everyone who has done piece on Biden's final-years fitness-to-govern, and have them apply same standards here. (Once heard Bill Clinton give 45-minute ad-hoc on what diff *counties* in Arkansas had done in Civil War. Trump doesn't know WHAT YEAR it was.)

This exchange is so very telling. Trump repeatedly claims the photoshopped MS-13 on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles is real, Terry Moran keeps telling him it isn't, prompting Trump to say this: "I never heard of you. I picked you. You’re not being very nice. He had MS-13 tattooed... Just say yes!"

This stock market crash thing is so confusing. On one hand you have every economist and bank in the free world freaking out. On the other, there are some blue check accounts on Twitter with ancient statues as their profile pics doing 20 part threads on why down is the new up. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Jeffries: "The average Social Security recipient in the US receives about $65 a day in benefits. Elon Musk in his contracts with the federal government gets about $8 million a day. If they were really interested in waste, fraud, and abuse, they would start there ... but they're going after grandma"

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

I’ve been back in Illinois for a couple of days because my mom had a stroke, and we were all very worried. But this morning when I walked into her room she said her first complete sentence to me since I got here, which was “look at that big belly” so I think she’s going to be fine

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

All of the elite responses to the UHC/Luigi thing seem incapable of grasping that people broadly recognize now that the Proper Channels they insist everyone should direct their grievances into are designed to waste your time, take your money, or both.

The greatest failure of the modern Democratic Party is the apparent belief that basic elements of politics -- selling your policies to voters and reminding them what you did for them -- is somehow tacky and beneath them.

This, folks, is what gaslighting looks like. He paid a settlement to a victim and part of the settlement was likely that the victim’s name cannot be made public. This is how they are spinning this.

Devon Witherspoon is unreal. If a normal defender takes a false step against Kyler it’s OVER. But Witherspoon instantly recovers and forces the INT. Then he pauses to taunt Kyler before jumping back into the play to take out 2 defenders. Truly a 1 of 1 football player

Box score won't look as good as the Rams-Panthers-Jags run, but this is probably the best game of Caleb Williams' career. Which is saying a lot, considering who's on the other side.

Caleb Williams had a lot of great moments today, and really did well against a tough defense. And Matt Eberflus continued to prove why he can't be this team's coach next year. Win-win.
