Dumb, gross, dangerous, hackery of the first order.

Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, asked the Justice Department to consider criminally charging special counsel Jack Smith, who previously prosecuted President Donald Trump, according to a letter sent to DOJ obtained by CNN. cnn.it/4ft4dbn

The American conservative movement has an extreme surplus of mediocre Straussian political theorists who are all convinced that they are the next Machiavelli even though they have the scholarly achievements of Ignatius J. Reilly.

NEW from me in @thedispatch. My investigation on how Congress spent two decades designing a web of budget laws and rules to constrain budget deficits - and then quietly & systematically destroyed every one of them so that it could turn surpluses into $1.8 trillion deficits. 🧵

It's funny watching some on the right insist that "facts don't care about your feelings" while simultaneously arguing that a third of the U.S. population is made up of illegal immigrants. Beyond parody.
Remarks@remarks
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Former Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino says over 107 million illegal immigrants are living in the United States right now.

Absolutely shameful behavior for Trump to speak on behalf of these fallen troops.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Trump on fallen US troops: "All of them said very strongly, 'We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.'"

I'm not a foreign policy guy, but helping the Saudis on the way to nukes seems not super America-firsty.

Quick reminder: The leader of MAGA (who Marc runs regular interference for) tried to overturn U.S. democracy to stay in power, disparages our vets, enriches himself off the presidency, and draws moral equivalence between the U.S. and oppressive regimes. Does HE love America?
Marc Thiessen@marcthiessen
Just like Republicans, Democrats are now experiencing a hostile takeover of their party. The difference is MAGA loves America, the Democratic Socialists hate America. My comments on @SpecialReport

Sen. Wyden's new tariff reform bill is now live. I have a few quibbles, but let's be clear: it's a great start and - *gestures around* - is desperately needed.
Best parts: express congressional approval of tariffs; repeal 122 & 338; de-politicize USTR

Living presidents on US currency is against the law. Do your damn job!

Grateful to speak with Paul Hollis, the Director of the United States Mint about the new commemorative President Donald J. Trump Coins. Director Hollis has done a wonderful job commemorating America's Semiquincentennial through commemorative coinage.

.@kpomerleau: “After decades, the federal highway trust fund still faces insolvency. In the past, lawmakers have transferred general funds to shore up its finances, but this is bad policy. Proposals to tax EVs are a step in the right direction but are not a solution. If lawmakers want to maintain a federal trust fund, they should move towards a sustainable users-pay system like a vehicle miles traveled tax.” aei.org/economics/lawm…

🇺🇦 Zelensky Comes 4th in Latest Ukrainian Trust Ranking
Ukrainians just named the leaders they trust the most — and the President is no longer in the top 3.
According to a fresh Rating Group poll (July 20–21, 2026):1
1st: Valery Zaluzhnyi — 70%
2nd: Mykhailo Fedorov — 65% (+30% in just one week!)
3rd: Kyrylo Budanov — 62%
4th: Vladimir Zelensky — 59%
The most striking shift was the surge in trust for Mykhailo Fedorov: in just one week, his approval rating jumped from 35% to 65%. At the same time, trust in Oleksandr Syrskyi dropped sharply, falling from 39% to 23%.

☀️AM: Everything is once again a mess for Republican leaders on the hill.
THUNE says he’ll never take up the JOHNSON’s CR and he’d rather work with democrats on one.
AS JOHNSON and his leadership team rush to get a budget blueprint out the door, THUNE says he’ll hold it up until he can figure government funding out — the cash-strapped pentagon could be waiting for months for money
THUNE says again he’d rather do a supplemental outside reconciliation
ALSO: senate poised to add tens of billions to reconciliation if they ever take it up - raising questions about if and how the house could handle it.
Once again, the two Republican leaders appear to be on different planets.

"Maybe it’s time for our members of Congress to have a hearing on Russian propaganda and how it’s being used to stir social chaos in the US." and especially manipulate Donald J. Trump.

Thank you! Very nice of you! I see my visit to Ukraine has made many waves. @andrii_sybiha is the Minister of Foreign Affairs For Ukraine. I have already had so many lies debunked just by visiting Ukraine. I can’t wait to release all of my videos so people can see what I have seen. Most of what I believed about Ukraine before visiting is either distorted or a half truth. I am glad I’m here for a while to keep investigating the truth on my fact finding trip. It really makes you realize just how much Russian propaganda there is in American media. Maybe it’s time for our members of Congress to have a hearing on Russian propaganda and how it’s being used to stir social chaos in the US.

This bill should have been named We're Too Fucking Feckless and Lazy To Pass a Budget Through the Regular Appropriations Process and We Won't Pretend Otherwise.
Jake Sherman@JakeSherman
THE HOUSE has passed a stopgap funding bill to keep government open until Dec. 4. Funding runs out Sept. 30. Vote was 220-205. Six Dem yes votes. 1 GOP no. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has said he's crafting his own CR.
