Scott Bessent is existence proof that being rich has nothing to do with being intelligent.
Bessent on tariffs: "This is one of President Trump's signature policies, and traditionally the Supreme Court does not interfere with a president's signature policy."

I haven't heard the Seattle Police Officers Guild reaction to Katie Wilson becoming mayor, but given the priors I am guessing they'll be calling her the most dangerous leftist since Subcomandante Marcos, and then immediately demanding unlimited OT to do security for T-ball games.

JD Vance: "Science as practiced in its best form is that if you disagree with it, then you ought to criticize it and you ought to argue against it."

I'm struggling to understand in what universe plucking paying tenants off the street and deporting them is good for any part of the economy, but stating matter-of-factly that it'll drive down rents is some underpants-gnomes, voodoo economics bullshit
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

The Republican Law of Inflation:
We are to receive credit for reducing inflation in advance, and blame for increasing it after a 4-year grace period
Peter Navarro: "They want to blame Donald Trump for what is Biden legacy inflation"

Fully expecting an announcement that Landon Thomas Jr. has joined The Free Press as a correspondent.
This story by @davidfolkenflik.bsky.social about Landon Thomas, former NYT reporter now appearing in the latest email tranche, soliciting a $30k contribution from Jeffrey Epstein?

Yes, you can read it here

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

Gonna use my one "this Republican has a point" of this term of Congress on this
Thomas Massie to CNN on the Epstein files: "This vote is gonna be on your record for longer than Trump is gonna be president. And what are you gonna do in 2028 and 2030 when you're in a debate … and they say, 'How can we trust you? You covered up for a pedophile back in 2025.'"

Q: Given you answers about transparency, why are WH officials meeting with Boebert in an effort to get her to not sign the Epstein files petition?

LEAVITT: Doesn't it show transparency that members of the Trump administration are willing to brief members of Congress?

“We’ve done more for x than anyone ever” is an admin tell. They NEVERRRRR back this with any evidence. They just kicked out anyone who might have asked a followup (but rarely did, tbh), and replaced them with cheerleaders who gladly accept that’s the final word.
Q: In the interests of transparency, why not just go ahead and release the full Epstein files?

LEAVITT: This administration has done more with respect to Epstein transparency than any administration ever

Knowledge of the training data has literally been used to understand the cause of errors in AI driven healthcare systems. For example the melanoma detection system that was found to be using the presence of rulers, stickers, and pen marks made by DRs to infer melanoma status, rather than mole itself

Confirmed: Donald Trump is to politics what Aaron Rodgers is to politics
Trump to Pat McAfee: "I'm only joining you because I hear you say such nice things about me. When people say nice about me, I join. When they don't say nice about me, I take a pass."

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

And I've been doing politics for long enough to know clearly that the entire Senate Democratic caucus agreed to this decision to fold. Open your eyes. The 8 who "broke" did so with the complete blessing of Schumer and their colleagues. You don't have to play along because this is not a game. The end

Wisconsin has its own way of saying "fuck you, make me" and I think it's beautiful ❤️
Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments.
