Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States.
That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

My niece loved her job, then DOGE took it from her yesterday, just like it did to a friend’s son last month. And thousands of others. And this is just AmeriCorps - this doesn’t include all the hundreds of thousands of others left unemployed in other fields across the country.
Happy first 100 days.

My surgeon called me to see if I had any questions about tomorrow. The SURGEON.
I think I’m in pretty great hands. Thanks, University of Iowa Health Care.

This past week, the Chinese learned
1) exactly where Trump's pain points are;
2) how much to squeeze them before he flinches;
and
3) how little America's partners and allies want to help this president.
Highly useful information.

Kudos to AP for fighting for a place at the table. Media coverage of our government should never be restricted to those with whom the administration agrees or, worse, those for which it controls the narrative.
I happen to know that some powerful media orgs were unhappy that AP filed suit; they thought the conflict with the White House would blow over on its own and that AP risked making bad law. The AP's leadership deserves a lot of credit for having proceeded as it did. apnews.com/article/trum...

Sure Trump is crashing the public market, and children are dying of preventable diseases because Trump put a confidence man in charge of our government health agencies! The fury, I feel right now cannot be properly expressed.

In the first five hours of my pre-surgical leave I: made birthday weekend plans for a music festival in MKE, visited a friend’s daughters and their new baby chicks, did a 2-mile walk with the dog, and sent responses to queries in 9 chapters back to my editor.

This might also help enough people in red states to be pissed off enough to not vote for them in 2026. This and all their alcohol production gone swirling around their sewer.
