In the wake of this week’s deadly aircraft collision near Washington, President Trump happily jumped to conclusions and pulled the U.S. apart rather than together, Peter Baker writes. "He has long demonstrated that he is more comfortable as the blamer in chief than consoler in chief."
From Anguish to Aggression: Trump Goes on Offense After Midair Collision
President Trump at moments of national tragedy has always been more comfortable finding fault than providing comfort or expressing empathy.

Trump Mocks Idea of Visiting Crash Site

Asked if he’d visit the D.C. crash site, Trump snapped, “What’s the site? The water? Want me to go swimming?” Instead of leading, he deflects and mocks. Meanwhile, he falsely blames DEI, ignoring his administration’s gutting of aviation safety.

RFK Jr. failed the Medicare quiz. If the highest health official in the United States cannot answer what Medicare Part A, B, C, and D are, he can't be expected to make them work better for American seniors. Period.

JD Vance attacks the church: "The US Conference of Catholic Bishops needs to actually look in the mirror a little bit & recognize that when they receive more than $100m to resettle illegal immigrants, are they worried about humanitarian concerns or are they actually worried about their bottom line?"

ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe.

That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US.

This is the second verified incident I've heard about.

We were here 1st.

Mr. Cuban, people are out here struggling. The nonprofits like mine are being wiped out in funding due to targeted discriminatory lawsuits and we are the only line of defense for the community. People are afraid to protest due to the new laws nationwide.

I respectfully disagree with Holt. Musk's overt Nazi salute was not an act of "self-sabotage" because it has cost Musk NOTHING. It was a successful demonstration of impunity.

“I’m skeptical it was on purpose,” said Jared Holt, a senior research analyst at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, which tracks online hate. “It would be an act of self-sabotage that wouldn’t really make much sense at all.”

This is what the protest vote got us. We are a Duolopoly, and always will be until people start organizing and campaigning the day after an election. All you had to know was history and to pay attention. We failed, aside from those of us that voted for Harris, hard time to muster “ we told you so”.

I saw Ta-Nehisi Coates speak several years ago, during the 45th presidency, and he said pretty much exactly this. Our founding documents and our laws mean nothing if the people in place to uphold them aren't willing to do so. #politics
“They can’t do that, they’re not allowed to!”

I assure you that they can do that if nobody is willing to stop them from doing that.
