There have been many, many wild 24 hour news cycles in the Trump era but this one that began with Trump threatening to execute members of Congress and ended with him having a love fest with Mandami and MTG resigning is certainly up there. Solid Top 20 effort by the writers.

The human cost of Trumpism. Listen to this kid.
Let’s assume, as is implied, that his parents came illegally but he was born here and is a citizen.
Assume they committed a crime by illegally crossing a border.
I ask: does this punishment fit the crime? Can anyone with a heart say it does??
Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.”

A 16yo American living in fear of the Trump regime’s ICE goons terrorizing brown people pleads for help.

There's money available to feed poor people. The Trump regime has deleted that fact from a government website, but it's still a fact.
Donald Trump deleted this from the government website.

Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

Every mention of SNAP being frozen should include this simple fact:

TRUMP is CHOOSING TO CANCEL FOOD ASSISTANCE. There are literally emergency dollars available to keep SNAP funded.

Listen to Reagan’s words and judge for yourself. Trump is, again, lying.
Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

If we are fortunate enough to have elections and to elect a Democratic Congress and POTUS in 2028, they must move aggressively to pass legislation to abolish ICE and ban masking of LEO. Trump is creating a paramilitary secret police force. ICE as currently constituted is a threat to democracy.

For days, Ted Cruz and others in the MAGA world claimed the No Kings rallies would turn violent.

Will they apologize now?

People keep saying that Trump is prosecuting his political enemies but that’s not what this is.

She’s not a political enemy, she’s a prosecutor who charged and tried a criminal. The criminal got away and now has the power to exact revenge. A mobster ordering a hit. That’s all this is!
It’s hard to overstate how grotesque is the prosecution of Letitia James. I hope John Roberts—who unleashed this malignant, vengeful career criminal on our beloved country—is enjoying Trump’s utter abuse of power and trashing of justice and the rule of law.

I feel like the dictionary is subtweeting my podcast where the two hosts have been arguing about how to pronounce this for months now
Here’s a primer on ‘primer.’

It’s pronounced ‘PRIMM-er’ if you mean “a small book” or “a short informative piece of writing.”

It’s pronounced ‘PRY-mer’ if you mean “an initial coat of paint.”

President Trump called for the jailing of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker on Truth Social.

The threat comes after Illinois sued the administration on Monday in hopes of halting the troops’ deployment. The National Guard arrived this week nonetheless. trib.al/pXoPcwu

Deplorable. Once upon a time, if a president had use a speech to a military academy for partisan purposes, it would be considered a disgrace by both parties.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.
