Let’s be clear: the administration is choosing not to tap emergency funds available to provide critical food assistance for families in need.
Their own shutdown plan — which they recently deleted — confirmed they could. Read it for yourself:

Trump 2017: "It is my pleasure and my honor to announce my nomination of Jerome Powell."
Trump today: "He's a terrible Fed chair. I was surprised he was appointed. I was surprised frankly that Biden put him in and extended him."
Every news story will include both clips, right?

Zach is always a must read on Trump's crypto schemes. He doesn't just say what's happening, he explains it clearly.
Thanks to @hcrichardson.bsky.social for referencing my reporting on Trump’s stablecoin launching on an exchange that’s banned the US after admitting to violating laws against money laundering and agreeing to pay a $300 million fine.

The Trump admin tried to justify blowing past the deadline by saying “foreign affairs cannot operate on judicial timelines.”
Judge Xinis quickly dispatched that claim in a footnote: "Defendants’ vague reference to “foreign affairs” alone does not justify their lack of compliance."

And tomorrow, Donald Trump will drop a bomb on the US economy, for absolutely no reason whatsoever. It is good to have this contrast at this moment. #MorePoliticsNotLess
Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.
What will you do?
