Jeffrey Goldberg calls out Mike Waltz on NBC over Signalgate:

"This isn't 'The Matrix.' Phone numbers don't just get 'sucked into' other phones. I don't know what he's talking about there … He's telling everyone that he's never met me or spoken to me. That's simply not true."

Gosh. If only there were an historical analogue we could study to learn about the horrors of rounding people up without due process and sending them to torture camps in other countries.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

"Trump’s Oval Office show proves he’s no Don Corleone. He’s really the Luca Brasi for mob boss Vladimir Putin."
The Trump Vance performance today was one of the great foreign policy fails in US history, the biggest Oval Office clusterfuck the public has ever had the chance to watch in real time. But it was much worse than that. Another piece from me. www.thedailybeast.com/trump-thinks...
Trump Thinks He Humiliated Zelensky. He Really Humiliated the United States
Trump’s Oval Office mob show proves he’s no Don Corleone. He’s Luca Brasi—with nukes.

There is going to come a time in the very near future where the only way to resolve this is for every non-MAGA media company to band together and simply refuse to walk into the presser or attend the event. Because he wants the coverage more than anything else. Divided you fall.

House GOP wants $4 TRILLION dollar debt ceiling increase.

You marks really thought the world’s richest man and the guy with the golden toilet seats were really going to “fight the elites” for you?

Nah, they just want their tax breaks.

A familiar pattern has emerged since President Donald Trump returned to the White House: He makes a brash proposal, his opponents file a lawsuit and a federal judge puts the plan on hold.
How the courts have (so far) pushed back on Trump's attempts to expand presidential power
Now the question is whether the court rulings are a mere speed bump or an insurmountable roadblock for the Republican president.

Very interesting to me. Tulsi Gabbard was confirmed as DNI but Mitch McConnell voted against her?

It's worth remembering that at literally any moment, Republicans could do the right thing and vote to impeach and remove Trump.
