Wes Moore on redistricting: "You know who started this? It wasn't Gavin Newsom. It was Donald Trump, when Donald Trump first contacted Texas and said 'I need you to find me additional congressional seats.' And they went into a backroom with a sharpie and started redrawing maps."

It’s insane that the Trump admin wants to double the already massive US military budget in just 2 years when we are not at war. Trump’s DOD budgets are a cesspool of corruption and grift for the military industrial complex, scammers and grifters, including Donald Trump, Jr.

LAWLER: Renaming infrastructure projects is not a new concept
KARL: Okay, but this isn't like, 'let's honor somebody.' Trump wants it named after himself! And he says he'll unfreeze the money if they do it
