THE THREAD TO END ALL THREADS. (Just kidding. Y’all know I’ll never stop doing threads.) Someone asked me to consolidate a bunch of my explainer threads into once place. Here are some I remember doing, and I suppose I could add to this over time:

New: Kevin Warsh has tapped two outside associates as advisers—in as temporary contractors for now. Both are budget policy specialists, and one wrote the Fed chapter of Project 2025, which endorsed a radical restructuring of the central bank. wsj.com/economy/central-bank…

COLUMN: The biggest threat to JD Vance in 2028 is Spencer Pratt. “If there’s going to be a challenge to an orderly handover of Republican leadership in 2028, it is far less likely to come from one of the usual suspects … than from a Pratt-like fireball,” writes our @alexanderburns. politico.com/news/magazine/2…

Pulte previously threatened on social media to use his agency’s power to crack down on the nation’s largest homebuilding companies and accused them of limiting housing supply and affordability. Two people familiar with the matter said he made similar threats in private.

It is very unwise to do this, especially with something that has a high likelihood of coming out publicly later, bc you won’t have trust when you need it And it follows you across jobs. If an employer makes you lie, reporters still remember when you move to a different company
There is nothing more frustrating to a reporter than when someone falsely denies a major scoop to block it

Lobbyists are growing increasingly optimistic that the administration’s vague proposal for a body to oversee trade with China, an idea first teased by USTR Jamieson Greer in March, could evolve into a major channel for tariff relief via @_AriHawkins politico.com/news/2026/05/30…

Capital Weather Gang, the weather blog that has been a part of the Washington Post for almost 20 years, is becoming an independent site and rebranding as Capital Weather. Per a note to WaPo staff today, the site will still contribute to WaPo during major weather events.
Really magnificent weather today (Friday)! Temps in 70s Low humidity We have several more days like it, including amazing weekend weather. This is both awesome and not great. Why awesome? The sunshine is nice after all of the recent gloom. Plus, we know big time heat and humidity can't be too far away. Temps in the 70s and low 80s at this time of year are a win. Why not great?: No meaningful rain in the near-term forecast. We've still got a serious drought.

Scoop: The AI EO isn't fully dead. There are three camps in the White House. The most skeptical are those like Pete Hegseth and Emil Michael. Susie Wiles and Scott Bessent are in the middle. And David Sacks wants the least regulations. w/ @SophiaCai99 subscriber.politicopro.com/a…
