Mike Johnson’s claim that Trump was an FBI informant against Epstein is ludicrous — and it’s a reminder that he’s in way over his head.
For the speaker to then walk it back and have the episode all blow over shows again how desperately reporters need Johnson’s aides as sources.

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!" I'd like to invite you to go fuck yourself.

The administration has admitted that Kilmar Abrego Garcia was wrongly deported. They fired a lawyer for telling the truth (even tho it was her responsibility as an officer of the court). The govt should bring him back (and it could) but it won't. And Republicans are SILENT. Never forget this moment.

We organized, knocked on doors, and led weekly caravans for Harris-Walz.

F’ing idiots.
This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.
