Trump has lost two heavily whipped votes in the House on his signature economic policy in the last 24 hours.
This is a big f-ing deal.
This is a big f-ing deal.
In an extraordinary rebuke of Trump, and his signature economic policy, the House voted tonight to repeal Trump's tariffs on Canada 219-211.
Both the Senate and House have now voted to repeal Trump's tariffs on Canada.
Rs growing weary of defending the indefensible.

I think the greatest gift college professors in the humanities can give to students right now is a seminar room where, for 80 minutes twice a week, nothing that happens to them is a sales pitch for an AI product.

This is how CBS Evening News depicted data showing that less than 14% of ICE arrests involved those accused or convicted of violent crimes, and less than 2% had homicide or sexual assault charges or convictions.

So Republicans are shrinking the population, cutting access to health care, increasing the velocity of disease, and defunding basic research. And that’ll somehow grow the economy by 15% per annum.
Anybody get the sense that these people have no clue what they’re doing?

Look folks, if you want to grow the economy you can either increase productivity or increase the size of the population. The Trump Administration is trying to shrink the population via a campaign of terror against immigrants and killing productivity gains via defunding science and unis.
"In 2023, the economy added 3 million jobs. In 2024, still under Biden, it added 2.2 million jobs. In 2025, under Trump, it added just 181,000 jobs. This is a story about an economy getting throttled by one man and his capricious, destructive governance."

I’ve said something like this here before, but it bears repeating today: Pam Bondi is a contemporary from my region, same college, etc., so I’ve watched her rise for decades. I assure you a more contemptible, grasping, power-mad wretch never emerged from these sunny shores.
BONDI: You didn't ask Merrick Garland anything about Epstein
BALINT: Weak sauce

Incidentally, the winningest male biathlete of all time (and, in fact, the winningest Winter Olympian of all time), Norway’s Ole Einar Bjørndalen, is married to the winningest female biathlete of all time, Belarus’ Darya Domracheva. I bet they either talk about the biathlon all the time or never

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

This is the pervasive view of Trumpism. They never apologize for anything bc to them that's a sign of weakness and accountability.
Given repeated opportunities, AG Bondi repeatedly refuses to apologize for exposing the identities, sensitive information, and photographs of Epstein victims, attacking lawmakers for asking the question.

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.
