Reporter: The senate in Indiana voted against the redistricting effort.

Trump: I wasn't working on it very hard. I wasn't very much involved

Rutte: Allied defense spending and production must rise rapidly. Our armed forces must have what they need to keep us safe. And Ukraine must have what it needs to defend itself.

We must all accept that we must act to defend our way of life now, because this year Russia has become even more brazen

Reporter: There were new Epstein photos today showing you, Bill Clinton, Steve Bannon…

Trump: He has photos with everybody. Hundreds and hundreds of people that have photos with him, that's no big deal, I know nothing about it.

Mother of Karoline Leavitt’s Nephew speaks out after ICE arrest: I think what I would have to say to Karoline is just because you went to a catholic school doesn't make you a good catholic.

Smart and brave of Bruna to go on CNN. And not that it should matter, but her accent sounding fully American makes the White House look even stupider here for trying to revenge deport her on behalf of the Leavitt family

This entire article is positive about Trump Gold Cards. It contains positive quotes about it from Trump, Lutnick and a CEO. It contains no quotes from the many critics of the program. This is sandwiched between 6 posts about Erika Kirk. CBS is lost.

Breaking: D.C. Circuit's Trump appointees again block Judge Boasberg's contempt inquiry DOJ keeps going to the D.C. Circuit, where Trump appointees on the court have repeatedly stopped the district court's effort to hold the Trump admin accountable.

Judges Neomi Rao and Justin Walker of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on Friday night blocked D.C. District Court Chief Judge James Boasberg from beginning his scheduled Alien Enemies Act case contempt proceedings next week.

It was, much too much, an echo of April.

'Merry' is an adverb in this case.

We're the baddies now. Our new Security Strategy shows it. It's a gift to the Kremlin and a middle finger to our erstwhile allies.

"The administration genuinely seems to believe it can pull back from the world stage yet somehow still tell the rest of the world what to do. And it has a very firm idea of what it wants Europe to do, which is 'be as racist and xenophobic as Trump.'"

Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration diverted more than $35 million in taxpayer funds — an amount far greater than previously known — as part of a brazen agenda last year to defeat two ballot amendments he staunchly opposed, a Miami Herald/Tampa Bay Times investigation has found. Much of the state money was intended to assist needy Floridians, including children. Instead, it paid for political consultants, lawyers and thousands of advertisements that helped DeSantis and his supporters win at the ballot box.

Big story this morning from the Miami Herald that indicates the DeSantis administration improperly diverted lots more taxpayer money than has been previously reported.

Today in the Republican Party: Dan Crenshaw releases a video explaining why he’s threatening to sue a podcaster for accusing him of hiring DJ Steve Aoki for a party and for claiming that Crenshaw was conspiring to get a gang of Navy SEALs together to physically assault him.

Rubio doesn't understand Cuba. Cuba will not topple if Trump starts a war with Venezuela.

Cuba survived decades of Castro (both of them). They will outlast Trump, Maduro, and Rubio.

66% support either a single national government program or a mix of government and private programs.

The total goes up to 92% if you include support for the continuation of Medicare and Medicaid.

Only 7% said there should be no government involvement of any kind in health care coverage.

‘Windmills are a disgrace’: Inside Trump’s war against a growing U.S. industry Efforts to avoid conflict and seek help from GOP moderates didn't spare wind companies from the president's attacks.

This is the kind of crap that will prevent the administration from getting permitting reform.

Oh. Of course.

Republicans refused to make good on their commitment to work in a bipartisan way to lower skyrocketing premiums.

Now, they own the massive fiscal disaster that is about to hit their constituents – health care premiums will double in a matter of weeks. 🧵

Oh Really? You ain’t telling US nothing new. Anything that comes out of the ‘pedo trump administration’ is a LIE ‼️ When their mouth and tongues move they’re LYING ‼️ Don’t believe a WORD they say ‼️

Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?

TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

Steve Bannon’s close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein deserves even more scrutiny.

Every day.

Bannon has manipulated press coverage for years, even while being a superspreader for rightwing extremism and idiotic conspiracy theories.

Reporting every day. Bannon + Epstein.

AOC: Speaker Johnson kept Republicans home for over a month so that they would not negotiate on health care. Trump and Vance, they did the same thing. They stuck their heads in the sand for the entirety of a 30 day government shutdown where we were urging them to come to a solution.

The moral and intellectual poverty of the USA today in one exchange.

If an outside group can come in and mandate a TPUSA chapter, doesn't the school district have to also allow a student Gay-Straight Alliance or other pro-LGBTQ+ chapter?
