Reporters who fact-check Trump to his face are not “stupid”, they are not “piggies”, and they are not “ugly”. They are doing their jobs, and doing it under pressure most of us will never experience.
We should be grateful for their service. I appreciate their courage now more than ever.

On the patently unlawful boat strikes
It's hard for USGs to claim ‘mistake of law’ or ‘advice of counsel’ – when they’re firing lawyers who wouldn't sign off on the strikes.
WaPo's new revelations on firings or removals:
1) CIA General Counsel
2) NSC Legal Adviser
3) CIA Mission Center’s lawyer

White House blew past legal concerns in deadly strikes on drug boats
The Trump administration sidestepped skeptical lawyers across national security agencies as it pursued a military campaign against alleged narcotraffickers, officials say.

Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

This Fall, I invited our interns to brief me on a policy issue they care about, and pitch legislative solutions. It was great to see the hard work they put in to tackle problems we face.
This next generation of young, bright leaders is exactly what our country needs.

This is a Putin plan for Ukraine.
What we need to do is put pressure on Putin to negotiate and we need to continue to support the courageous people of Ukraine.

Had 4 years of outrage media coverage of Hunter Biden having a board seat but not quite as much energy directed to what is basically legalized bribery. Need your tariffs cut? Just hand Trump a <checks notes> $130,000 solid gold bar and a bespoke Rolex desk clock. Media shrugs.

I look at today’s date and I shiver. The remains of last night’s high we all experienced now getting quieter. The anniversary of when America had a giant “WTF” thrust upon us is now staring me in the face. And people are already experiencing sadness. It is bizarre that it’s been a year.
