Every time Trump rejiggers his political ad scheme, he adds a new violation! First he broke the law, including illegally using a song written by one of our @democracydefendersaction.org clients Now he says his super PAC will pay for the ads--but he can't legally do that! More @ms.now👇

The Trump administration's hands-off stance in the Cornell University case reflects how it has shifted its enforcement of Title IX from allegations of sexual misconduct to issues like blocking protections for transgender students. nyti.ms/4zdoEkI

If those two are the two best options for the GOP then I feel a lot better about 2028.

Republicans now having to spend many millions in multiple states where they should not have to spend anything because Trump endorsed the worst possible general election candidate in those primaries so now they are being bailed out by billionaires buying elections with dark money.

Potential nightmare for sure. Lot of debt rolling over with greatly inflated rates compared to what they were paying. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

The 30-year Treasury is near 5.7%, the highest since 2002. Mortgages are back above 7%. The Fed controls short-term rates. The market sets long-term rates, and that market is getting pretty scary.

FWIW: The venue for Trump's rally in Mobile Friday was about 75% full, and it holds a max of 11,000 people. In 2015, Trump held a rally at Mobile's Ladd-Pebbles stadium, which drew up to 30,000 people.

"Congress has already said no to taxpayer funding for the big, beautiful ballroom, and this should have been a stop order on the project....if Congress doesn’t fund a president’s pet project, how does he get taxpayer money for it?"

Why You Must Care About the Ballroom

Trump is defying Congress and robbing the American people to build it.
