@BulwarkOnline No one would describe a shotgun shell pellet as a bullet. If it’s a bullet, it didn’t come from the shotgun.

Tapper: "Have you been able to determine yet which gun actually hit the Secret Service agent?" Jeanine Pirro: "We have…There's video of the defendant shooting at the Secret Service agent…A pellet that came from the buckshot from the defendant's…shotgun was intertwined with the vest of the Secret Service officer." Tapper: "So it's definitively his bullet?" Pirro: "It is definitively his bullet."

Yes, @ScottJenningsKY is super thin-skinned (he won’t see this post bcuz he blocked me on Twitter), so not a surprise he lost his shit last night. But here’s the thing about him. He doesn’t believe what he’s saying. He’s an actor playing a role. He found out he’d make big, big money by playing the big MAGA tough guy. So that’s what he’s doing. And @CNN pays him big bucks to play that role. And when you don’t really believe what you’re saying, when you’re just playing a role, it’s really easy to become flustered and lose your shit. And that’s what he did. People like Scott Jennings who just play roles to incite division & viral moments are everything that’s wrong with our politics today. And people like young @adammocklerr, who genuinely believes what he says and is genuinely interested in respectful debate, are everything that’s right with our politics today.

@FoxNews Idiotic narcissism

NOW: President Trump gets a large laugh at the Forum Club of the Palm Beaches Dinner. "Within the confines of this room — mayor you're not going to tell anybody, please — I was thinking about seriously calling it the Gulf of Trump."

@washingtonpost Pissing directly on the Constitution again

President Trump claimed in a letter to Congress that hostilities with Iran have “terminated” as he reached a legal deadline that requires military operations to halt unless lawmakers authorize force. wapo.st/4cKbR0P

@SenJoniErnst Careful Joni, that one hits pretty close to your puppet master.

The federal government should be a place where sexual predators are shut out, not shielded. Yet, convicted creeps in agencies and Congress still can collect a taxpayer-funded pension. My No Taxpayer-Funded Pensions for Sex Criminals Act stands up for taxpayer dollars and creates real consequences by cutting off predators from their pensions.

@FoxNews I hope we can get the 600% reductions like prescription drugs (for those of you who failed math).

BREAKING: "When this war ends, gasoline and oil and everything, it's going to come tumbling down." "Other prices are way down, but gasoline's high. But when this is over, you'll have a world without a nuclear weapon with Iran. If you allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon, the world would be in great jeopardy. So it's not going to happen. As soon as the war ends, the gasoline prices will come down." - President Trump

@DMRegister WWJD or WWKD? Wrong choice, Iowa

@SenateGOP @TaxCuts And spending $300 more per month on gas and groceries

The average American is keeping $288.50 more of their paycheck each month thanks to the Working Families @TaxCuts.

@SenJoniErnst Psst, Joni…you are Congress. Start with unnecessary $400 million for the bunker ballroom, $500 million to retool the Qatari quid pro quo jet, millions on retooling passports, checks and documents for Trump’s vanity tour and $100 million spent on Florida golf trips.

@FoxNews Damned Constitution keeps getting in the way of the Epstein Autocracy.

NEW: House Republicans just cleared a key first hurdle to move ICE and Border Patrol funding forward without Democratic votes. The chamber passed a budget framework 215-211 along party lines, setting up the reconciliation process for a later bill that aims to provide about $70 billion for the agencies. It does not fund the agencies yet — more House and Senate votes still have to happen before anything becomes law.

@washingtonpost Is Donald planning on taking the bunker ballroom with him like the Qatari quid pro quo jet?

Column: President Trump is trying to recast his gargantuan $400 million ballroom as a security project, writes Post critic Philip Kennicott. But the real function of this ballroom is obviously as a fundraising space. wapo.st/3PanXHu

@Reuters All part of the ABE* plan. *Anything But Epstein

U.S. President Donald Trump said that his administration will be releasing as much information as possible on UFOs in the near future. reut.rs/4n14J3H

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach. The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

@washingtonpost So no Super Bowl, no UFC and no golf because he can’t be protected outside the ballroom bunker?

Column: President Trump has previously been unable to convince the American public that the White House needs an ornate entertainment venue that would dwarf the historic mansion. Now, he now seeks to convince them that he can’t be safe without one. wapo.st/3PanXHu

@LakotaMan1 That’s the seventh sign, right?

@washingtonpost It actually proves that the bunker ballroom is not needed. Security precautions and Secret Service did their job.

Justice Department officials asked a federal judge to lift his order halting President Trump’s planned $400 million ballroom, contending that Saturday’s attack at the White House correspondents’ dinner proved why the space is needed. wapo.st/4mVNHDO

@ProjectLincoln Who ever thought we weren’t? Quid pro quo bucks only get you so much tacky carpet and gold lame.

Update: the GOP is going to make YOU pay for his ballroom

@Forbes Trump must have run out of quid pro quo donors.

@FoxNews Where’s the NICE mask?

The White House is doubling down on a proposal to rename ICE to "National Immigration and Customs Enforcement" — or "NICE." President Trump first backed the idea on Truth Social as part of a push to reshape how the public and media refer to federal immigration authorities.
