Itโ€™s great to be back in New York City. I spent a good deal of my childhood and teenage years in and around NYC. Iโ€™ve been back to promote my new book, โ€œComing Up Short.โ€

Iโ€™m promising myself this is my last book tour. (Of course, I made the same promise with the last book.)

Bringing Abrego Garcia back to face charges is the trump regimeโ€™s way to save face and avoid embarrassing discovery in court - including maybe having to disclose their agreement with Bukele. IMO.

I hope legacy media covers the connection between last night's memecoin dinner and this morning's social media tariff threats. He's manipulating the stock market.

Iโ€™d be curious to see how many attendees of Trumpโ€™s crypto dinner last night shorted the market today

At this point trumps tariff threats are just stock market manipulation. Nobody will prosecute him.

Just fyi: break the law today you better hope statute of limitations runs outโ€ฆ you will be held accountable eventually

I've covered Van Hollen since circa 1999. He's actually not a "grandstander." In his first Congressional bid, he was the workhorse vs the showhorse. He out-hustled Mark Shriver who had far more money and had been on the cover of Time Magazine as a next-gen Kennedy. He won with an army of volunteers.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

George Santos is being sentenced next Friday. Prosecutors are recommending a sentence of 87 months in prison. To prevent any further "mishaps," Rep. Harriet Hageman will remain in witness protection.

Guaranteed there's another Abrego Garcia on this 2nd plane to a foreign prison. There's another gay make-up artist with no police record. There's another man with an autism awareness tattoo. Not exactly these people, but similar.

This is not due process. This is not deportation. This is fascism.

Make America Sick Again RFK Jr.โ€™s War on Public Health Is Putting Lives at Risk

Chuck Schumer:

"Consumers are saying, 'If these tariffs are gonna hit, I better not go on that vacation to see Grandma. I better not buy that new car. I better not, you know, upgrade the groceries I'm buying.'"

Go to visit Grandma? Upgrade the groceries?

JFC. This guy has gotta go.

Iโ€™m old enough to remember when I took out a full-page ad in the New York Times last fall to publish a letter signed by 225 mental-health professionals saying that Trumpโ€™s severe personality disorders made him destructive and dangerous.

Don't be surprised if the "concessions" Donald Trump is looking for from foreign countries in exchange for dialing back tariffs are not "you need to buy more pork from American farmers" but "you need to lease another floor in Trump Tower for ten years."

The Constitution gives Congress control of tariffs. But Republicans handed that power to Trump like a blank check and the American people are going to have to pay the overdraft fees!.

What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Muskโ€”or refuse to fight backโ€”will be swept out of office.
