Sen. @MarkWarner: What we're witnessing today is an extraordinary display of dysfunction from Trump who decided to install an individual as acting DNI that does not meet even the basic tenets of the law. You've got to have national security background. Bill Pulte doesn't even have a security clearance.

Joy Behar: “I’m so tired of Donald Trump, I can barely talk about him anymore. I am so sick of his stupidity, his dishonor, the way he talks about people, the way he presents himself to children, the way he curses and swears about people, the fact he’s so incompetent at what he does, the fact these Republicans stick by him no matter what. Why are Americans putting up with this?”

CBS has been forced to pay a fine after Stephen Colbert played an unlicensed Peanuts song on air during his last episode. The owner of the rights to Peanuts has donated the fee to José Andrés' charity, World Central Kitchen.

It's only Tuesday and Trump has fucked up a pool for $14 Million, lost a war agreeing to pay Iran $300 Billion, and ballooned his already expensive ballroom budget by another $200 Million. Where are the Republicans screaming about "waste, fraud and abuse"?

"America lost the war...We will exit the war with none of those goals achieved, and in order to end the war, America had to submit to a host of Iranian conditions. We lost and there is no reasonable way to hide this fact." open.substack.com/pub/thebul…

Sheryl Crow speaks out after Trump’s UFC 250 event: “To stay quiet means to turn a blind eye. And so I am saying this. What happened last night on the lawn of the White House was disgraceful and void of decency. Powerful, rich people filled the lawn to watch a violent sport that ended with a vile and racist comment. All while the average American cannot afford healthcare, gas, and cost of living. Do not be fooled. This administration is corrupt and does not give a damn about the American people. It only cares about making money hand over fist at the expense and in spite of our democracy. If we continue to support this kind of distraction from reality, we are no better than them. Let's be better, America.”

BREAKING: JD Vance confirms that Iran could get $300 BILLION as part of the Trump Iran Deal. I liked the Obama Iran deal much better. How about you?

Last month, solar power generated 12.8% of electricity in the U.S. while coal was responsible for 12.2%. It’s the first time in history that solar accounted for more energy than coal. 🔋 abcnews.com/US/solar-generat…

Never forget that as Elon Musk became a trillionaire today, it is estimated that 750,000 people have died as a result of his cutting of USAID. The majority of those deaths were children.

There is something terribly wrong about an economy that produces its first trillionaire, but cannot provide health care for its people. Or one in which the richest handful of families have the combined wealth of almost forty percent of the rest of the country. This is the cost of a corrupt system, where wealth perpetuates itself, and poverty, at the same time.

I recommend reading the New York Times piece “Inside the White House Freakout Over the Epstein Files,” by Haberman and Swan. Briefly, it documents how the Epstein files triggered an internal crisis in the Trump White House: Vance calling it a “huge problem,” senior aides holding repeated Situation Room meetings (often without Trump) over a political scandal, officials pushing transparency moves like unsealing grand jury records that they privately knew would produce nothing new, discussions about deploying the imprisoned Ghislaine Maxwell to publicly defend Trump, and internal warfare between Bondi, the FBI and others over messaging. Throughout, the dominant fear was losing the MAGA base, not anything Democrats might do.  And here is what struck me reading it. Across all those Situation Room meetings, in a room normally reserved for wars and terrorist attacks, not one item on the agenda was the victims. Not one discussion about fulfilling legal obligations to disclose, not one about identifying who committed crimes, not one attempt to document what actually happened to the girls at the center of the case. The “transparency” strategies were chosen precisely because they would reveal nothing. The one Epstein insider they considered putting in front of a camera was a convicted trafficker, and her job would have been to defend the president. An entire administration mobilized its crisis machinery around a child sex trafficking scandal, and the only victim anyone in the building was trying to save was themselves.

Let me get right to the point. The Senate should not confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general. Here's why: robertreich.substack.com/p/t…

Under the proposed merger, nearly 50% of Paramount-Warner Brothers would be foreign-owned, including by Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi. This deal could pose a national security threat.

Why Trump really just decided bomb Iran… This was just published.

.@XavierBecerra has the experience and grit California needs. He will stand up to Donald Trump, defend our families, and keep our state moving forward. It’s time to get to work and help him win this November.

Make no mistake: in California, our democracy is working as it should. But our President is doing everything in his power to make you doubt that with constant lies. His baseless, anti-democratic rhetoric has no place in our electoral process.

MAJOR BREAKING: Rep. Ted Lieu Just Escalated His Criticism Of Trump. He says the president has repeatedly fallen asleep at Cabinet meetings, White House events, a Memorial Day ceremony, and even the NBA Finals. Then came the question. Why does Trump keep undergoing medical evaluations and cognitive testing? For months, the White House has insisted the president is in excellent health. Now critics are pointing to a growing list of public incidents and asking for more transparency. The White House can dismiss the criticism. But it can’t stop people from noticing the pattern.

Exactly

Here's what the booing sounded like inside MSG when Trump was shown on the Jumbotron:

WOW -- Trump crashes out and cuts his interview with Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged "You're either crooked or you're stupid. Let's call it quits. Because I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her." "I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads.
