Newsom on weaponization slush fund: One thing I think we’re going to try to do is tax 100% anyone from California who receives any of those funds. That’s an action the state of California can take, and we look forward to taking it.

For awareness, @PeteButtigieg was mocked for taking parental leave when his son had a life-threatening illness.
Sean Duffy just bragged about going on a road trip for over half a year while Transportation Secretary.
On Dr. Mike’s podcast, Pete Buttigieg talked about his son’s scary stint in the ICU. Don’t know that I’ve ever heard him go into detail about it.
Republicans attacked him nonstop for taking leave to be at the hospital with him.
NEW: More Perfect Union is opening up our newsroom, connecting with students everywhere, and equipping them with the tools needed to unrig our broken economic system.
Democrats have two paths to take here:
A. Quickly change their tune use 2026 cycle to understand how AI should change our comms strategies (aka try new things, take risks, etc, etc)
B. Walk into 2028 even further behind than when we swapped candidates 107 days out
"Republicans are very comfortable using AI for almost anything in politics, and they’ll say so. Democrats are not very comfortable, and they won’t talk about it."

Georgia Voter: It's giving war crime. You can't do that. We don't just annihilate people because we can and, you know, make a grab for the money and the oil. And that's what we've done in Venezuela. And that's what we're doing in Iran.
$1.5 BILLION. Let me say it again - a $1.5 BILLION BET.
Bigger than any futures purchases made at the time.
5 minutes before Trump's post.
Who was it? Trump? A family member? A White House staffer?
This is corruption. Mind blowing corruption.
BREAKING: Just five minutes before Trump's announcement to halt the attacks on Iran, massive trades reportedly hit the market.
In one move, $1.5 billion in S&P 500 (ES) futures was bought while $192 million in oil (CL) futures was sold.
These orders were 4–6x larger than anything else at the time.
The trader seemingly made huge gains.
Unusual.
Concert fans already deal with outrageous service fees and hidden charges. Seeing executives joke about “robbing fans blind” shows exactly why competition and transparency in ticketing matter.
Internal messages from Live Nation reveal two execs talking about "robbing [fans] blind."
“These people are so stupid. I almost feel bad taking advantage of them," one says.
That man is now the head of ticketing for the unit responsible for Live Nation's 150 amphitheaters.
Gambling on war and death doesn’t just present national security risks, it also raises serious concerns about potential insider trading — presenting unscrupulous government officials with a chance to profit off the new war in Iran.
These contracts are immoral. @CFTC can and must ban them. 🧵

Patty was violently arrested 8 blocks from where Renee Good was murdered. Voters deserve to hear her story the 100s of others violated by Trump's untrained ICE agents.
