Trump Announces Pardon for Honduran Ex-President Convicted in Drug Case

"We blow up ‘alleged’ drug boats in the Caribbean but pardon actually convicted drug traffickers in the U.S. Someone help me make sense of this.”

Opinion | Trump’s Neville Chamberlain Prize

Tragically, Tom Friedman is right. This is utter appeasement to a monstrous Vladimir Putin. Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff, Dan Driscoll, selling out America and Ukraine to Russia. Disgusting and disgraceful.

Holy shit this photo!!!

Trump is 100% "America first," except when it comes to Argentinian beef

Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how Elon Musk is boosting the British right - and this shows how

A magnificent piece of work. Comprehesive, revelatory & shocking. Journalism this good is always rare & precious but never moreso than at times like this. Latter day Lord Haw Haws being plumped, preened & delivered to your doorstep in plain sight by a Nazi-saluting goon

This sums up Trump’s presidency. And he’s not joking.

😂😂😂

"Oh, the humanity!"

A tweet with pictures of Graham protesting in Washington, D.C.: Look who I found. Apparently, back in March - before any talk of a run, this guy got on a bus with a bunch of local organizers from Maine, and headed down to DC to try and fight against the GOP's evisceration of Medicaid and cuts to reproductive healthcare.

You got me.

MAGA, the powerful alliance of greed and hate.

Bari Weiss, and her GOP supporters, have gone after DEI for years. But isn't Weiss a DEI hire herself? She wasn't hired at CBS because of her experience/competency in broadcasting, she wasn't hired for her strategic tv ability, and she wasn't hired for her years of working in news media.

They aren’t hiding the totalitarianism, folks.

For an administration that came out of the box threatening Canadian independence, Greenland’s sovereignty, the Panama Canal, etc., it sure has a glass jaw. 🤡

Kaine: "We can't do a deal with Trump then have him tear it up tmrw & start mass firings or canceling programs he doesn't like or ones that help blue states. We have to be sure that a deal is a deal ... thus far he's not been willing to even discuss a deal, much less guarantee he'll live by one."

NBC's parent, Comcast, funding the destruction and desecration of the White House. Always remember that business leaders don't care about preserving the democratic values of this country. They care about money! Period!

It's not Trump's fucking house!!!

Canada was caught, red handed, putting up a fraudulent advertisement on Ronald Reagan’s Speech on Tariffs. The Reagan Foundation said that they, “created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address,” and “did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter.” The sole purpose of this FRAUD was Canada’s hope that the United States Supreme Court will come to their “rescue” on Tariffs that they have used for years to hurt the United States. Now the United States is able to defend itself against high and overbearing Canadian Tariffs (and those from the rest of the World as well!). Ronald Reagan LOVED Tariffs for purposes of National Security and the Economy, but Canada said he didn’t! Their Advertisement was to be taken down, IMMEDIATELY, but they let it run last night during the World Series, knowing that it was a FRAUD. Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The president announces an arbitrary price hike on Americans because his feelings are hurt by an ad accurately quoting Ronald Reagan’s criticism of tariffs

They don’t even pretend to care. This is the only story. You can’t open the government if the House refuses to show up.

Russia was caught, red handed, interfering in the 2020 election. Trump never did anything to punish them.

"Authoritarianism is an instinct, a yearning for control, for hierarchy, and for simplicity. It manifests in different costumes, but it always tells the same story: trust the strongman, fear the outsider, silence the dissenter."

Liberalism Is a Bold Force That Ends Corrupt, Oppressive, and Arbitrary Hierarchies It doesn't defend the status quo, it upends it

"Liberals believe in the dignity of all people and see the expansion of their freedom as central to upholding that dignity."

This is a good read.

As a reminder, when Biden announced student loan forgiveness—based upon a statute passed by Congress which explicitly said the President could do exactly that—Douthat called it "semi-Caesarist" because it was done "without consulting Congress."

One thing that we learned from the Trump regimes is that we shouldn't expect business leaders to give a shit about our democratic values or the needs of the poorest among us. They very clearly don't care about freedom of speech or free and fair elections. What they care about is money - their money.

This is authoritarianism. Picking his media oligarchs.

Because "a picture is worth a thousand words."

Birds of a feather and all.

Make no mistake. Republicans aren't looking for cooperation from Democrats; they want capitulation. If Democrats don't agree to comfort the comfortable (tax cuts for the rich) and afflict the afflicted (cuts to health care support for the poor) Trump and his acolytes will seek vengeance.

this is truly invaluable reporting
