This unhinged individual plays a central role in formulating very important policies that may impact each and every one of us!

In total, ICE set tens of millions of dollars on fire, buying multiple commercial warehouses at inflated prices in order to rush through a stupid plan to convert them into mass detention camps, and then when the whole thing unraveled they’re now offloading them at lower prices.
The Wall Street Journal@WSJ
The Department of Homeland Security is expected to scrap plans to use seven warehouses purchased as part of a plan to flip them into immigration-detention centers. on.wsj.com/4oAIJgC

I love travel (and even enjoy flying)! You would have to PAY ME to get me to sit in a plane for 22 hours straight.

Woah, take a close look at the first-ever @Qantas Airbus A350-1000ULR for Project Sunrise flights. It’s going to fly 22+ hours and 10,000+ miles — and a massive 20,000-liter fuel tank was added to make it all possible. First routes: 🇬🇧 Sydney to London. 10,573 miles, launching in October 2027. 🇺🇸 Sydney to New York. 9,950 miles, likely launching in 2028. I’m ready to book the inaugural.

Gabbard’s final act in her ignominious service to Trump was…to promote a bonkers conspiracy theory that COVID was created in a lab.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard@DNIGabbard
Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth. odni.gov/index.php/news…

The humiliating Iran deal requires the U.S. to come up with a $300 billion reparations payment to Iran. That's more than Iran's entire GDP.
Trump says taxpayers won't pay for it.

What’s more, the owner of Greenwater Services (L) is a convicted felon who tried to bribe notorious former Rep. Jim Traficant (R), who was expelled on a 420-1 vote after he refused to resign following his criminal conviction. (2/2)

From the You Can’t Make It Up File: Trump awarded a no-bid contract for some of the apparently deficient Reflecting Pool work to a company owned by a big GOP donor. The name of the company? GREENWATER SERVICES. (1/2)

As luck would have it, Sean from New York, who used to work for a pool company, was nearby to talk about this blue stuff.

A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem.
Donald Trump won’t let it open.
Here is why.
The family that owns the old bridge stands to lose business when the new one opens. So in January, they gave one million dollars to a pro-Trump super PAC.
Weeks later they met with Trump’s Commerce Secretary.
He called Trump.
Hours after that, Trump announced he would block the new bridge. The opening was set for June 12. It got canceled the day before. The bridge sits there finished and empty.
Now here is the part that should make every taxpayer angry.
Canada paid for the entire bridge.
Every dollar. And the United States already owns half of it for free. Trump is holding up a bridge we got for nothing, to protect a donor who wrote him a check, while picking a fight with our closest ally and biggest trading partner.
This is corruption in plain sight.
A billionaire pays, and the President delivers. American workers and businesses pay the price.
Open the bridge. A government should work for the people, not for whoever writes the biggest check.

This is HUGE. After spending over $1 BILLION on the purchase of multiple commercial warehouses that ICE planned to convert into the largest jails/prisons in the nation, ICE is now largely abandoning the idea and will aim to sell off multiple warehouses at a loss.
Hamed Aleaziz@Haleaziz
SCOOP: ICE is planning to offload seven warehouses purchased for more than $700 million by either giving them to other federal agencies or selling them outright, according to documents obtained by The New York Times.

American flag blue.
Pieces of the reflecting pool coating aren’t just floating, they’re blowing away. @sarahrobinsontv found this in the grass nearby.

A couple of people are now at the Reflecting Pool cleaning in khaki pants and dress shirts, as if reporting after work to help the cause.

JUST IN: Judge Angel Kelley (Biden/MA) denies stay of her order to restore National Park exhibits removed under Trump-era edicts. She also warns admin not to obscure the displays (informed by Kennedy Center antics?) Doc: documentcloud.org/documents/2827… Earlier: eenews.net/articles/judge…

Trump is claiming there is no $300 Billion Dollar payment to Iran by the U.S…
These are his handwritten initials. He should read his own memo of understanding.

Turns out, having the pool guy from your country club do rush, no-bid work on a national landmark may not be the best way to go. washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/06…

Why on Earth would you conclude some kind of gentleman’s agreement with IRAN?!?
Kristen Holmes@KristenhCNN
Vice President Vance tells me that some of the "gentleman's agreements" described by US officials “are written down" but not in the official MOU— indicating there are side deals between the US and Iran that haven’t been made public.
