"A new, bipartisan bill could allow Trump to drop 100 percent tariffs on virtually any country he likes, for as long as he likes, and with pretty much bulletproof legal authority to do so." Now why would Congress do that? ICYMI @crampell.bsky.social:

A bill supposedly aimed at Russia is really an unprecedented new tariff power grab—yet prominent Democrats are backing it.

Brandon Herrera, Republican candidate for the U.S. House in Texas, called babies "cum trophies." Do congressional Republicans agree? Our Brendan Hartnett went to Capitol Hill to find out if "cum trophies" is just a Texas thing.

@themomentwithkaty.bsky.social the reason Roger Marshall is really jumping to Trumps defense is that he is hoing to be picked to run HHS. RFK jr. Is leaving soon and Roger Marshall is worried about not being re-elected so he wants that position before mid-terms giving KS GOP chance to fill the seat.

Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack.

"The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."
