Conservatives want to police how we talk about Donald Trump—while excusing how the president talks about everyone else, @jonathanchait argues: theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

Today's order will not affect ABC's stations right away. It is just the start of a protracted legal process, and ABC has broad legal protections. Nevertheless, it is another extraordinary escalation by the Trump administration. cnn.com/2026/04/28/med…

Ron DeSantis just rammed out a gerrymandered MAGA map that openly violates his own state constitution — and leaked it to Fox News before he gave it to the legislature. California let voters decide. Virginia did too. DeSantis won’t. He’s rigging the map because he knows he can’t win on a fair one. Donald Trump started this war on voters. DeSantis is on his knees carrying it out.

@atrupar @WajahatAli Does he have makeup on both hands? 🙄

the hands of both King Charles and Trump are in pretty bad shape today (Mandel Ngan and Jim Watson/AFP via Getty)

@kylegriffin1 Another waste of taxpayer dollars for an indictment that will go nowhere. This is just stupid.

BREAKING on MS NOW: James Comey has been indicted by the Trump Justice Department — again. This time, Comey has been indicted on charges alleging he made threats against Trump in that May 2025 social post of a picture of shells on the beach that spelled out "8647."

@Katelyn_Caralle @WajahatAli Most Americans would be embarrassed to carry any document with his photo on it. Luckily mine won’t expire for some time. Question: it’s a limited edition. Does this mean it will cost more and the grifter in chief will pocket the difference?

SCOOP — The State Department is unveiling a limited-edition passport redesign for America250 featuring images of Donald Trump, the Declaration of Independence and the founding fathers. Take a look:

Gas prices are at their highest level in four years. What is @SecRubio focused on? Putting trump’s face on U.S. passports.

@TimHannan @ImSpeaking13 Exactly. He is the grifter in chief.

The scam is becoming clear, Trump raises $300M for his ballroom, then gets the taxpayers to fund it instead and Trump puts the $300M in his pocket.

Oh STFU. Trump danced on Rob Reiner’s grave, on Robert Mueller’s grave, called recently for the execution of elected members of Congress. Kimmel told a joke. I’m so fed up of this idiocy, dishonesty and faux outrage.

ICE brutally detain U.S. citizen mother—leave 2 little kids in backseat. Agents grab her by hair and tackle her face first to street—handcuff her behind back. "I was shouting: I'm a citizen! I have my children in the car—9 year old girl and 1 year old boy!" She was held hours before being released—despite proving she was a U.S. citizen. ICE claims that she assaulted an agent first. "I never assaulted anyone—my intention was to exercise my constitutional rights and request the arrest warrant." Her husband was released a week later after an emergency habeas corpus petition was filed. Incident occurred in Asbury Park, New Jersey. #DemsUnited

@covie_93 Just happened to me. Literally. 🙄

Old enough to remember when MAGA would call you "r*tarded" when you tell them that taxpayers would pay for trump's ballroom.

@MacFarlaneNews @joncoopertweets Does he actually think the judge will be swayed by this? That the judge will. Over when accused of having TDS? This is nuts.

OVERNIGHT: Trump Admin files latest court motion in support of White House ballroom It reads like a Trump Truth Social post, with random capitalization, accusations the plaintiffs are "very bad for our country", suffer "Trump Derangement Syndrome", etc storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

@RulesReps You simply cannot govern can you? November can’t come fast enough.

The consideration of the aforementioned measures has been postponed subject to the call of the chair.

Donald Trump is lying again about elections. You might recall, this once lead to an insurrection in the Capitol where police officers were attacked. The legacy media wants us to say this nicely, but they can go fuck off. Support Democracy Docket instead. bit.ly/41Owd2z

Here is a long montage of Trump calling Americans who don’t support him “the enemy from within,” “vermin,” calling to “shoot through the fake news,” and other violent rhetoric

KIMMEL: “You know how sometimes you wake up and the First Lady demands you be fired? We’ve all been there, right? — I agree hateful, violent rhetoric is something we should reject… a great place to start to dial that back would be to talk to your husband.”

@Mimimouse37 @Acyn

@DenverKVS @Acyn He has never planned to fund it with tax payer funds and still does not. You people are insane.

Rep. Menendez responds to news that Republicans want to use taxpayer money for the White House ballroom. Menendez: There’s an affordability crisis out there. Nobody gives a shit about the ballroom except for the president.

Trump’s DOJ just filed what may be the most deranged written Motion ever. It reads more like a Truth Social post dictated by Trump himself. What an embarrassment. The Motion is filled with inappropriate personal insults. It literally calls the National Trust for Historic Preservation name “FAKE” and says the group is “very bad for our Country.” It accuses them of suffering from “Trump Derangement Syndrome” and frames their lawyer as “the lawyer for Barack Hussein Obama.” This is an actual line from the filing: “because it is DONALD J. TRUMP, a highly successful real estate developer, who has abilities that others don't, especially those who assume the Office of President, this frivolous and meritless lawsuit was filed.” This is how the Department of Justice is writing now? Then comes the opportunism. The filing leans heavily on the White House Correspondents’ Dinner incident and uses it to push Trump’s long-standing obsession with building a ballroom. Instead of addressing what went wrong, it argues that none of this would have happened if Trump’s project already existed. They claim “bipartisan support” because of support from…John Fetterman. The lawsuit also claims at multiple points the ballroom won’t cost taxpayers anything—something we now know to be false. Every DOJ lawyer who put their name on this should be ashamed. And it should be a major scandal that it appears that Donald Trump is the one who actually wrote this. So much for DOJ independence.
