/11 Trump is what he is: an increasingly demented jumble of personality disorders prone to barking out whatever angry stupid thing pops into his head. And he’s the “leader of the free world.”
But many politicians who took an oath to uphold the Constitution will echo his lawless dreck.

This is great from Jeff: real clarity on why Rodman's potential departure is much more of a bellwether than the handful of big USWNT names to leave NWSL, and on what her leaving would mean for the next players down that list.
The #NWSL is staring down the departure of Trinity Rodman, a rare star who transcends sports and whose exemplary play and relatable personality attracts the casual fans that the league seeks to grow, due to salary cap limitations.
The league of choice must choose its future.

NWSL faces litmus test to retain Trinity Rodman's star power
Trinity Rodman represents some of the very best that the NWSL has to offer. That's why Saturday's NWSL Championship -- perhaps her final game -- feels so significant.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Just a reminder: there was a Biden administration investigation into Epstein and Maxwell's co-conspirators. Trump killed it in January, fired the prosecutors, stole the files, & ordered Bondi to open a new sham investigation, led by a handpicked prosecutor, so DOJ wouldn't have to release the files.

Calling the ABC reporter’s question “insubordinate” explains everything about how Trump sees press freedom.
Q: Why wait for Congress to release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now?
TRUMP: It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you're a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected asking him an insubordinate question
