Obama expressed empathy for Trayvon Martin and @benshapiro had a decade long tantrum. Imagine if instead he had stolen $1.8 bil from taxpayers and had BLM dole it out to whoever they wanted. Because that's what Trump is doing but for insurrectionist whites instead.

@chrislhayes You’re a little late to the party. Of course that’s what he’s planning.

I'm starting to become convinced that Trump's monomaniacal obsession with the ballroom/bunker is because he plans on barricading himself inside the bunker when his term is up.

NEWS ON THE BALLROOM -- The $1B for USSS is one of the most important things Republicans are dealing with right now. It is the single provision that is standing in the way of ICE/CBP funding. Trump wants this on his desk by June 1. But that's all been complicated by the $1B for security, including Trump's ballroom. Forget the House floor right now. it's irrelevant. all the action will begin when the Senate moves the reconciliation bill. As @LauraEWeiss16 scooped last night, Senate is not only changing the $1B language, but they are also considering lowering the number from $1B. Senate is engaged in a lot of Trump management right now. They know Trump wants the money but they also know that, in its current form, they cant pass it. The parliamentarian is a side show, for the most part. Because if the language ends up on the floor, it could easily come out during vote-a-rama. And here's the real kicker: The House is even trickier. Absences and opposition will kill this provision in the House. Johnson has been warned by rank and file. This won't fly. punchbowl.news/archive/51926-…

It should be a huge scandal that a close confidante of, and adviser to, President Trump and Secretary Rubio reacted to a deadly terrorist attack at a mosque by calling the mosque "evil" and calling for the deportation of all Muslims from America.
But it isn't.

Mark, you are standing next to the guy who gutted Medicaid, the ACA, and put a conspiracy theorist in charge of HHS.
I can’t think of any one person who’s done more to destroy healthcare access, and yet there you were with him.

A bedrock principle of America’s founding was religious freedom, not a national religion. Theocracy is the stuff of ISIS.

Why are taxpayers paying to fly J. Edgar Boozer’s girlfriend around in a private jet?
WASTE, FRAUD, ABUSE!

🇺🇸NEWS: FBI Director Kash Patel used a government Gulfstream V to fly his country singer girlfriend to a George Strait concert. He watched the show from a luxury suite reported at $35,000 to $50,000. Then he flew her home on the same FBI jet. Same week: a “VIP snorkel” at the underwater tomb of 900 sailors and Marines at Pearl Harbor. The pattern from the same NYT investigation is now public. Four SWAT agents and two SUVs guarding his girlfriend in Nashville. The detail estimated at $1 million a year. SWAT escorts to a hair appointment. An FBI official suggested a threat assessment to determine if any of it was justified. Patel berated him. A New York Times reporter wrote about the SWAT detail. The FBI opened an investigation into the reporter. The DOJ shut it down and called it retaliation. What is the FBI for when the FBI Director uses it as a personal concierge service and turns it on the people who notice?

Looks like potential insider trading to us. Does this look like insider trading to you?
Over 3,600 stock trades by Trump since Jan. Absolutely unprecedented. This will be investigated.

In case you've forgotten, here are some of the things learned from the Trump tax returns leaked by a government contractor in 2020:
In 10 of the 15 years before Trump won the presidency, Trump paid no federal income tax. In 2016 and 2017, he paid $750. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Speaking to insiders, Justin Baragona looks at how Jennings evolved from his 'aw shucks' Bush-era conservatism to WWE-style pro-Trump pugilism, and what his recent on-air outburst says about CNN.

COMMENTARY: Gov. Jared Polis (D) removed a standard line from Tina Peters' clemency letter which reads: "I believe you will be successful upon your release."
If Peters is successful in helping President Trump overthrow American elections, that will be Polis' legacy.
