Trump "showed a level of viciousness toward [Rob] Reiner in death that we rarely see in anyone, and have never before seen in an American president," Peter Wehner argues—and it's a mistake to dismiss his words.
Trump’s Inferno of Hate Is Intensifying
When a man with the president’s personality feels besieged and abandoned, he becomes more desperate and more dangerous.

Up for a lifetime judgeship in Tennessee … and never practiced there.
NEW: Trump nominated Brian Lea for a judgeship in Tennessee, but Lea has no legal experience in the state. He was just admitted to the bar in Tennessee & admitted to practice in the Western District of TN this year.
His confirmation hearing is tomorrow. nominationnotes.substack.com/p/trump-nomi...

The nominee’s lack of professional experience in the state where he’s been nominated must be interrogated.

Regarding Bacon's comment, provided to @jaketapper.bsky.social (which I screen grabbed b/c you don't need to see Trump's post for the 403rd time), I do think it's important to note this is a 62-year-old man who has been in Congress the entire time Trump has been president.

Was watching MSNBC for a while this evening. They interviewed a Brown student sheltering in her dorm room. And she mentioned that she was a survivor of the Parkland shooting. So she was on her second school shooting. Which underscores the maddening fact that we’ve done nothing to make it stop.
