No American should be comfortable with the President of the United States accusing a reporter of treason for critical reporting.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Trump to NYT's David Sanger: "I had a total military victory. But the fake news, guys like you, write incorrectly. You're a fake guy. We had a total military victory. I actually think it's sort of treasonous what you write. You should be ashamed of yourself. I actually think it's treason."

New: Senate Dems heaped praise on Fetterman this week, arguing their party needs to be more inclusive, especially if they want to win Senate control next year. Schumer called Fetterman a "strong advocate” for PA and a “valued Democrat in our caucus.” Schatz said he's “a good human and a good Democrat” Welch said his critics should "show some respect" “I wish the atmosphere [were] more collegial, and we don’t go after each other simply on our differences," Kim added

Sean Hannity did a lengthy interview with Trump in China. One word that was somehow not uttered in it, according to the transcript: "Taiwan."

Trump in 2024 on Jimmy Lai: "That's going to be so easy. I'll get him out. There's no reason for him being there right now except that [Xi] doesn't respect Biden and Kamala." Trump in 2026 on Jimmy Lai: "It's a tougher one."
Clash Report@clashreport

Reporter: What about the political prisoners in China? Did you bring up with Xi political prisoners in China? Are any going to be released any longer? Trump: Uh I think he's giving very serious consideration to the pastor. Reporter: What about Jimmy Lai? Trump: I did bring it up. It's a tougher one for him. It's a tougher one. He told me that would be a tough one.

👀 1. Hannity suggests that rather than get Iran's nuclear material, it could just be "entombed." 2. Trump seems to suggest that could be a more viable option. He even says actually getting the material is mostly about PR.

This congressman has disappeared for three months, and their proof of life is that he’s joining the congressional crypto caucus
Congressman Tom Kean@CongressmanKean

I'm pleased to join the Congressional Crypto Caucus. The United States must lead on digital assets - driving innovation, delivering regulatory clarity, and protecting consumers. I look forward to working with this bipartisan group of colleagues to advance that agenda.

Exclusive: The Trump administration planned to start work at the site of the president’s proposed 250-foot Triumphal Arch by piggybacking on an existing, unrelated contract for engineering services at the White House grounds more than a mile away. wapo.st/4uh1nwm

American staff took everything Chinese officials handed out - credentials, burner phones from WH staff, pins for delegation - collected them before we got on AF1 and threw them in a bin at bottom at stairs. Nothing from China allowed on the plane. We’re taking off shortly for America

"It's a nice suit" and there was "no message" Sec. Rubio says when asked about his Nike sweatsuit attire on AF1: “There’s no context. It’s a nice suit. I mean, I like it. It’s comfortable,” Rubio said today in an interview in Beijing with Tom Llamas of “NBC Nightly News.” If anything, “he copied me because I had it before,” said Rubio, who appeared in the suit in a photo posted online by White House communications director Steven Cheung. “I don’t know when he bought his. I didn’t even know that was his,” he said. The bottom line, Rubio said, is that “it’s comfortable. I don’t know. There was no message. I didn’t even know he was taking the picture.”

In March 2025, DOJ's top ethics lawyer told then-Deputy AG Todd Blanche that he had to recuse from cases involving Trump, whom he once served as personal attorney. But there's very little clarity on what Blanche is recusing from now that he's acting AG. cnn.com/2026/05/14/pol…

🚨During lunch at his golf course with tobacco executives on May 2, Pres. Trump called Robert F. Kennedy and Dr. Oz, furious. He wanted action on flavored vapes. And he soon got it, prompting the FDA commissioner to resign. W/ the amazing @kenvogel: 🎁 nytimes.com/2026/05/13/us/…

When Cassidy took that impeachment vote though, the state still had a top two all party primary.
Aaron Blake@AaronBlake

100% this from @daveweigel. Impeachment supporters have only won in top-two/top-four states. If and when Cassidy loses, it's not because MAHA took him down.

@FordJohnathan5 @ChrisVanHollen The things Patel said were not accurate. But he did not say the $7,000 bar tab was in El Salvador. He said it was at the Lobby Bar in DC.

BREAKINGNEWS: FBI Director made claim that @ChrisVanHollen paid over $7,000 bar tab in El Salvador while visiting Kilmar Abrego Garcia. We find out the $7,000 tab wasn't in El Salvador or wasn't at a local bar. It was through a catering service for staff paid for by campaign funds. Not a single dime from tax payers, but from contributions. FBI Director Kash Patel should resign for this reason and 100 other reasons. 🚨
