George H.W. Bush kept his assets in a blind trust, as did Bill Clinton. Neither Obama nor Biden traded stocks or bonds while in office. 3,700 trades is probably more than all the trades of all the presidents until now. And he is trading stocks that are affected by his decisions. A walking conflict of interest, at the least, and perhaps insider trading. Just as members of Congress should not be able to trade stocks, so too the president. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@chrislhayes @daveweigel @RichardRubinDC both parties spend like drunken sailors with no end in sight. Those of us indie voters think the system is broken and the elite class truly is selling off the U.S. part by part.

@daveweigel @RichardRubinDC I mean there's an obvious reason, which is that Republicans run the government. The second Democrats do, the panic will come rushing back. Mark it.

Interesting how the national debt panic (and the beltway groups that fulminated about it) vanished - even though the total debt has more than doubled since the 2011 debt ceiling wars. Great @RichardRubinDC story, WSJ A1, no discourse! wsj.com/economy/u-s-de…

@saylordocs who cares?

Health Sec. Bobby Kennedy SMASHED 20 pull-ups at DCA airport, at 71 years old This is CRAZY! 🔥

Today, two U.S. destroyers transited the strait into the Persian Gulf without being harassed by the Iranians. It’s possible they will anchor in the Emirates to reinforce anti-aircraft defenses. And why didn't Iran stop these vessels? Because, by all indications, there is an agreement where Iran pretends nothing passes through the strait, and the U.S. pretends no Iranian ships are leaving the region. As I reported yesterday, about 25-35 Iranian ships loaded with oil bypassed the American blockade. Why? The U.S. priority is to maintain the flow of oil in the international market, and stopping Iranian exports would only worsen that. Obviously, this deal includes Iran quietly allowing the passage of several tankers. So, one side pretends to run a naval blockade against Iranian exports, while the other pretends the strait is closed to American military ships. Iran is the clear loser in this deal, giving Trump the argument that the operation freedom project, he claims to be implementing is actually opening the strait by force. Video ilustrativo

@StephenMoore @mcuban. Help?

Hospitals are the biggest driver of rising U.S. health care costs. Many operate as tax-exempt “non-profits” while running massive commercial systems. This results in less competition, higher costs, and shrinking tax bases.

There is no version of the attacks on Iran in which the U.S. citizen doesn't pay more. Fertilizer disruption jacks up the global food supply; helium disruption from natural gas/oil production jacks up semi-conductor manufacturing; gas prices are up. No clean win for U.S. at all.

@BulwarkOnline Um, Trump isn't walking the golf course...riding 9 miles in a cart, maybe. Gosh this is just exhausting.

RFK Jr: "There's a lot of people who could probably do a 50-mile hike." Trump: "What about me? You didn't mention my name." RFK Jr: "This guy walks nine miles a day on a golf course every weekend, so he could do it in a breeze."

@EWErickson As a TX resident, Trump, Paxton, Hegseth: 7 divorces between them....character can't be reduced to tattoo choices either. Our country is not being led by men of character currently. Full stop.

All those years of lectures by Democrats about character and they embrace a man who got a tattoo of the symbol used by those who executed the Jews in the holocaust. But he says he’s a communist, not a Nazi, so they are okay with it. “But Trump” can excuse anything for the Left.

@BenSasse and his interviews are elevating the humanity we aspire to, but have been lacking in the political sphere. Cheering him and his family on. Would be fun to host him @Baylor; trusting that his interviews continue to get a wide viewing.

this is true, tragic, and woefully under-reported/under-discussed

“Middle-class median Americans are the richest people any time and place in all of human history. And yet, the economic revolutions that we're living through are unsettling culture and place,” former Sen. Ben Sasse says in an extended interview with Scott Pelley. cbsn.ws/49fcPzQ

@EWErickson And not the only example. @tedcruz @JohnCornyn @chiproytx feel free to stop this.

This is the socialism you said you were voting against.

@ericmetaxas The President's spiritual advisors are heretics and you know it. You're better than this.

Every Catholic should be screaming for an investigation into what looks like leftist corruption infiltrating the church. This deserves answers.

@conservmillen Thanks for leaning into those who may not be on the same page. I'm impressed. Well done.

This Friday, David French is joining me in studio for a debate and discussion. Tune in!

Not that MAGA cares, sadly, but Euro conservatives really pissed by his spat w/ the Pope -- even though they disagree w/ Leo on migration. It's fair to comment on papal political remarks, but one doesn't tear into the Pope as if he were Chuck Schumer. Trump making himself toxic.

My preferred 2028 ticket is Bryan Stevenson and Ben Sasse. a guy can dream a bit. @eji_org @SenSasse #sundays

I was told this week alone to read the bible interpretation book from @ZachWLambert, the novel by Levi (Theo of Golden), the Psalms commentary from Ash, the latest @Gladwell book, and the new book from @NTWrightSays. Any others? If you want to send any copies my way, feel free...

If you are following a Christian influencer who has never said anything to encourage your spiritual growth but has said plenty to enrage you politically, may I gently suggest that you stop following that influencer?

@conservmillen good point, but it is because the @GOP no longer presents itself as conservative so the politically homeless are frustrated and trying to claim a place to land.

All this hate for evangelicals when, statistically, we are the only bloc consistently holding it down for biblical marriage, the pro-life cause, secure borders, and every other issue. We are by far the most conservative and united in every political, cultural, and moral area. This is not statistically contested. Without the strength and cohesion of this group, conservatives lose everything. Consequently, the country loses everything. Not an exaggeration. So ask yourself: why would someone want to divide, destroy, and demoralize this stalwart group? The answer is obvious if the person is progressive, but it becomes a bit murky when the people targeting this group are on the “right,” right? Something to ponder
