CNBC: The EPA is moving to rescind this endangerment finding on carbon dioxide and greenhouses gases. Is that a danger to public health?

MAKARY: To be honest, I don't know enough about that issue

CNBC: You're in charge of our public health! Can you look into it for us?

Image from Washington Post article on Hegseth's sharing of classified information in the Signal group chat

The Pentagon’s independent watchdog has received evidence that messages from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s Signal account previewing a U.S. bombing campaign in Yemen were derived from a classified email labeled β€œSECRET/NOFORN,” people familiar with the matter said.

The revelation appears to contradict long-standing claims by the Trump administration that no classified information was divulged in unclassified group chats that critics have called a significant security breach.

Fox News has spent more time this week discussing Hillary Clinton's emails than they have on a new watchdog report that Hegseth (a former Fox host) did in fact share classified info

Charlie Kirk: "As President Donald Trump is upset on Truth Social, I do not think he's attacking all of you in the rank-and-file. Instead, President Donald Trump is venting off some anger right now.”

Charlie Kirk complains about a lack of Epstein messaging from the Trump administration: β€œWe're basically having to do the PR work of the administration”
Kirk: β€œPeople like myself and Benny Johnson and Steve Bannon and Jack Posobiec, we're out here. We're having to explain this all day long. ... People are very, very confused, and some people are very disappointed and mad.”

I read Trump + Senate Republicans' "One Big Beautiful Bill" so you don't have to.

It came out at *midnight* & we're still getting numbers in from Congress's bookkeepers.

Early returns:
Nearly $1 TRILLION in Medicaid cuts.

This is the line from the horrific SCOTUS decision today that will stick with me. β€œSure, the president should follow the law - but the courts can’t force him to do it.” Rendering the Constitution a dead letter if the president decides he’d rather not deal with it.

The only reason Republicans have a reputation as "fiscal hawks" is that the press refuses to tell the public basic facts about what they do when they are in office.

Roberts: "There are plenty of democratic countries ... where doing something like that would get you shot, so there would seem to be a fair degree of restraint being practiced"

Fox & Friends is spiraling over TACO

A conservative news outlet deliberately shivving the "This is about dangerous gang members" narrative with quotes from Miller that make it transparent this is, in fact, preferentially about the "good ones" indicates that internal institutional support is collapsing, BTW.

Last time Trump called for remigration (a form of ethnic cleansing), national media outlets absolutely failed to cover it.

They NEED to do a better job explaining it this time.

But they did have time to just do some headline reads on:

- Prince William stripping Meghan Markle and Prince Harry of royal titles after her becomes king
- Kelsey Grammar's Fox Nation special
