The trade deficit last month was $36 billion larger than the Biden average. Trump's tariffs have failed.

My French tutor forced me to do a role play where I was debating for climate change reducing environmental policies against Donald Trump. It was brutal.

Poland had some wise words, for Russia. They can puff out their chests all they like, they can keep killing... But this Polish Foreign Minister is 💯 correct. They will never win.

Trump is spending $1,800,000,000 on a ballroom and his vanity projects. Instead, that money could pay for: 🍎607,000,000 school lunches 💡12,000,000 electric bills for a month 🩺88,000 Veterans medical expenses this year 🥪429,500 Americans’ SNAP benefits for a year Priorities.

The huge opportunity to redefine what Democrats stand for is lost. After 10 long years, the persona of the Democratic party has been defined by Donald Trump. The party has devolved into The Party of Trump Opposition. In the mind of the public, when Trump is gone, Democrats will represent nothing.

I don’t have a good feeling about Susan Collins losing her R Senate seat. I just listened to her deftly handling questions from reporters and constituents… it’s easy to underestimate her political skills, and always has been.

You’re right—that plane shouldn’t have gone there. That’s my fault, and I should have made sure there wasn’t a terminal in the landing path. Would you like me to call emergency services, or assist with lining up takeoffs?

With 6 weeks to until the November election, and Trump has no ‘juice’. Nothing in the tank. Politically, he’s running on fumes. Thus, his instinct to perpetually spawn distractions is about to kick into overdrive. I think banning CNN, MSNow from the White House is part of it. Prepare. For. Chaos.

@lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social Perhaps at some point you could put into perspective this historical fact: In his second term, Trump is the only President in the past 70 years who hasn’t implemented a single policy which had broad support from experts in the subject area, economics, international etc

It’s hard to discriminate Trump’s truly grave and dangerous actions out of his constant torrent of stupidity and lies. However, as the Iran war devolves into an epic strategic failure, O’Brien here is sounding the alarm about America’s critical degradation as a global power under Trump. Read it.

Why is Trump not being challenged over his absurd lies about tariff revenue? In 2026, $166B collected, then $100B refunded due to SCOTUS decision = $66B actually retained so far. Yet he claims we are swimming in over a $ trillion in tariff revenue, enough to pay $5k per adult or $1.5 trillion???

Trump told 9/11 families that he was rescued from the rubble of the World Trade Center -- an obvious and shocking lie. Here's how the New York Times reports it. This is like reporting George Wallace's "segregation forever" speech as "Governor speaks at inauguration. Some remarks controversial."
New York Times:
Trump Honors 9/11
Emergency Personnel in
Washington
President Trump awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom posthumously to a volunter firefighter who saved numerous people. He also added to a disputed account of his actions that day.

Elections are about going on offense, making critical pivot from pleading in court to persuading voters, from countering re-redistricting and disastrous Callais decision to turning voters out en masse no matter where lines are drawn. That crucial transition gets underway with vigor this week.

Politico interview of Susan Collins: Which would suggest that you didn’t think he was fit for office then. Do you think he’s fit for office now?

Well, as I said to you, my candidate was Nikki Haley, and I would have liked to have seen her win, but she didn’t. And I respect the fact that the people of this country made a different choice than I did.
