Everyone involved in this process — including the Palantir employees — have to be investigated and probably go to jail.

Next on the Docket: Dismantling Democracy
The Supreme Court is enabling Trump’s corruption while also doing the kind of institutional damage that will long outlast him.

We’re honestly still taken aback by Elon advising the Pentagon on the future of wars. Didn’t we all see how badly he failed with DOGE?

CNN on the last jobs report before the midterms: "It came in cold -- surprisingly cold. Job growth weaker than expected, unemployment unexpectedly went up, and paychecks aren't keeping up with prices. This was disappointing all around."

Senior leaders at Customs and Border Protection were left out of the decision to use their agency’s funds for a national ad campaign featuring Trump. They found out from a news report. Trump isn’t smart enough to come up with this himself. Our guess? Stephen Miller.

CBP leaders cut out of Trump ad buy decision
Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott and other leaders at the agency learned from a news report that national ads highlighting Trump were paid for with CBP funds.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

📌Just 17% of U.S. adults approve of Trump's mishandling of the cost of living. Just 26% approve of his mishandling of the economy overall. Read that again. With but 33 days until the midterms, the Republicans are about to get absolutely annihilated at the polls.

Sen. Thom Tillis privately told Trump he wouldn’t tolerate his “bullshit” — and that if Trump had ever directly threatened him with a primary challenge, he’d have “immediately told you to fuck yourself” and announced his retirement. The texts, obtained by Playbook, will appear in his upcoming book.

Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.

This is the most heartbreaking stories I’ve heard in a long time. ICE detained 2-year-old Orlin Hernandez Reyes’ mother. She begged to be reunited with him before deportation. ICE refused. What happened next is horrific. No matter how you feel about immigration, normal people don’t like cruelty.
