Donald Trump is a fool and China knows it.

HODGES: Unfortunately, I don’t see current U.S. administration doing anything to help Ukraine. They constantly take Kremlin’s side. They still echo Kremlin talking points, which is unbelievable to me. Vance brags that their proudest accomplishment was stopping aid to Ukraine. It’s unbelievable that American Vice President would say that. Secretary of Defense, Mr. Hegseth, no longer attends normal meetings where they discuss aid for Ukraine. So it’s hard to consider this administration an ally of Ukraine.

The foundation of our democracy is burning. It did not begin with Donald Trump, but he stoked the flames. The conservative Roberts Court did not light the match, but it has repeatedly declared fire hydrants, sprinklers and smoke detectors illegal. democracydocket.com/opinion/the-go…

This isn’t the first time Alito used inaccurate data to base important decisions. They think we’re too stupid to notice or care. 🚨Alito used inaccurate data to rule on the recent voting rights decision. 🚨Alito did the same when ruling on dobbs in 2022. 🚨Alito did the same when determining the safety of Mifepristone in 2024. 🚨Alito is also the creep who flew our flag upside down after Trump failed his Jan 6 insurrection — and then blamed his wife. ‼️This should scare the hell out of everyone! 🔥GET INVOLVED AND LET’S TROUNCE THE MAGA PARTY IN NOVEMBER! #MagaMath #SCOTUSIsCorrupt

SCOTUS’s Justice Alito claimed that the kind of racial discrimination that had prompted the creation of the Voting Rights Act no longer existed. Alito cited a court brief by DOJ, which relied on inaccurate statistical methodology when looking at Louisiana voter stats. #DemsAbroad newrepublic.com/post/210174/sa…

For 47 years, presidents of BOTH parties managed to avoid a full-scale war with Iran and keep the Strait of Hormuz open. You inherited: • a capped nuclear program (3.67% enrichment) • international inspections • an open global shipping lane You tore up the deal. Now Iran sits on near-weapons-grade uranium, Hormuz is becoming a battlefield, and global energy markets are on edge. The “weakness” you mock: diplomacy, inspections, containment was the thing preventing the crisis you helped create.

THIS IS FALSE. MAGA and the NY Comic Book are once again spreading lies: FACT: It’s a $6.2 million contract (not $20 million) FACT: It covers 40 million diapers in year one — about 15.5 cents per diaper (not 50 cents as claimed). FACT: Baby2Baby was chosen through a rigorous COMPETITIVE procurement process. It is a national nonprofit, based in California, with strong experience in delivering diapers for families in need and in the last 15 years they have distributed over 300 million diapers to families in need across the country. This program is a game-changer for new moms, providing 400 FREE diapers for all newborns. Why is MAGA anti family? It’s sick!

Beautiful weekend for a LIV golf tournament at Trump National in VA. Sure would be a shame if it were ruined by this ad running on heavy rotation on the Golf Channel in the club house and targeting every phone in the vicinity. Oh. Wait. 😈🏴‍☠️

After Jesse Watters of Fox complained about my story on Trump’s ridiculous reflecting pool project, I decided to do a fuller report on many of the ways Trump is ruining DC. CRY MORE @JesseBWatters ! 😂 cc @WashProbs

It's no exaggeration to say that Western society is disintegrating...

NEW: MAGA evangelical leaders gather in Mar-a-Lago to bless and dedicate a gold statue dedicate to Donald Trump.

It’s insane. Putin has refused the 1,000-for-1,000 prisoner exchange. This prisoner exchange was a condition for the ceasefire—and, consequently, for Ukraine’s agreement not to attack the parade in Moscow. Trump, too, announced on Truth Social: a ceasefire plus an exchange of 1,000 prisoners on each side. Putin—that piece of shit in human form—has once again lied to the entire world.

🇺🇸🧐 This is beyond outrageous. Openly, shamelessly, without fear of anyone, he is robbing America right in front of the entire country — robbing all of us. Kaitlan Collins, host of CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins, described the situation this way: “Imagine suing the government for $10 billion while also being the person who controls that very government. That’s exactly what is happening right now. Donald Trump, sitting in the White House, has filed a $10 billion lawsuit against the Treasury Department and the IRS — the very Treasury he controls, the very IRS he oversees, the very government he leads. He is effectively both the plaintiff and the defendant, and he wants taxpayers — you, me, every working family in America — to hand him $10 billion. Just think about that.” Trump even appeared on television boasting that he had already “won,” essentially bragging that he was negotiating a settlement with himself. Then his lawyers walked into federal court asking for a 90-day delay — not to fight the lawsuit, but to “reach an agreement.” An agreement between Donald Trump and Donald Trump, paid for with your money. But then something unexpected happened. Judge Kathleen Williams looked at this circus and basically said: “Wait a second. You are telling me you are suing yourself and expect me to approve a $10 billion payment from the U.S. Treasury directly into your personal pocket? Absolutely not.” She rejected the 90-day delay. She demanded separate reports from both sides — despite both sides effectively being controlled by the same person. Then she took the extraordinary step of appointing three of the nation’s most respected law firms as independent advisers to the court. Why? Because $10 billion of taxpayer money is at stake. What is really happening here is terrifying: a sitting president allegedly using the power of his office, and a Justice Department under his influence, to settle a personal lawsuit with himself and funnel public money into his own bank account. Constitutional law already has a name for this: a collusive lawsuit. The Supreme Court ruled on this principle more than 200 years ago. If both sides are effectively the same party, the courts have no authority to proceed. The Constitution requires a real conflict, real opposing sides — not a friendly deal between a man and his reflection in the mirror. And this is not some isolated stunt. Critics argue it is part of a broader strategy: stage a fake legal battle, force a surrender, cash the check, and walk away. But this time the number is staggering: $10 billion. Money that could repair roads, fund schools, support veterans, or feed hungry children. Instead, critics say it is being redirected through one of the most transparent legal scams America has ever witnessed. And the people supposed to defend the public interest? The Justice Department. Government officials whose job is to protect taxpayers. They are not fighting. They are not even pretending to fight. The judge sees it. Top legal scholars see it. The Constitution itself sees it. The only remaining question is whether the system still has enough courage to say “No.” Because if a president can sue himself and pay himself with public money, then the word “government” no longer means anything. It simply means: the person holding the pen writes the check — and everyone else pays the bill.

Ben Meiselas: "Look what Iran's Foreign Minister spokesperson is saying ... 'Disjointed delusional tweets no longer hold any sway over reality' ... Want to know what Donald Trump is saying and doing? Donald Trump is painting the reflecting pool."

@mmpadellan @arikuschnir My grace & forgiveness is on hold at the moment.

Brilliant, hilarious video by @arikuschnir, showing support services for remorseful MAGA who want to repent for their stupid decisions. What do you think? Should this be a thing? Don't we need them to leave the cult and rejoin society?

Buttiigieg: "Look, when you are this deep into your second year, if your reflex is to still be trying to blame the previous administration, it really shows that you are out of ideas, out of solutions, and unwilling to take ownership of your own choices."
