Trump's counterterrorism czar expresses amazement at how little negative reporting there is about the new National Counterterrorism Strategy. "50 articles were written...only one of them (from those putzes at Politico) was even slightly negative." "We are moving so fast, they just can't keep up with us — which is delicious."

US inflation hit 3.8% today. Energy up 17.9%. Food up just 2.3%. That gap is not good news. It is a delay. Energy always moves first. Food follows on the schedule of planting seasons and supply contracts. Those contracts are expiring right now. The calm at the supermarket is not reassurance. It is the last few weeks before the wave arrives. What hits when, whether to fix your mortgage now, and what to buy before October. 💸 open.substack.com/pub/gandalv/p/…

🚨PAY ATTENTION: Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang just boarded Air Force One for Trump’s China trip. He was previously reported as not invited. Elon Musk. Tim Cook. Jensen Huang. Boeing. Goldman Sachs. Blackstone. BlackRock. Citigroup. Meta. The entire American tech and finance elite — on one plane — heading to cut deals with Xi Jinping. The same China Trump slapped with 145% tariffs. The same China the US asked to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz. America First.

The SAVE America Act would prevent millions of Americans from voting. I’m still a hell NO.

Another humiliation for working Americans. Crushed by gas prices and inflation? Thought tariffs would replace income tax? Paying more than ever for food? Cry about it while the president pockets your tax money.

Aftyn Behn, Gloria Johnson, Justin Jones, Justin Pearson & more Democratic Lawmakers in Tennessee have been stripped from their committee assignments. This is the confederate south.

PabloReports: What do you make of Trump saying that he doesn’t think about Americans’ financial situation? Rep. Frost: That makes sense. He’s a billionaire. He obviously doesn’t care about working-class people, whether they voted for him or not. He just cares about himself and enriching his own friends. Thanks for telling the truth, dude—we knew that. Give us some new news.

TRUMP: “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. Not even a little bit.” And there you have it, folks

@ByronYork The Venn diagram of Americans who can--plainly and in public, without fear or favor--state the following two truths is depressingly small: 1. None of the attempts on Trump's life were staged. 2. Biden won the 2020 presidential election, which was not "rigged" as Trump claims.

There will be no coming back from this…

ICYMI — Trump calls another Black female reporter a “dumb person”

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender. AOC: It’s not a secret the disdain Ted Cruz has for people who work working-class jobs. It’s not a secret what he thinks of the waitresses, the line cooks—he thinks we’re less than him. He thinks that because he has a Harvard degree and has never scrubbed a table that it makes him better than someone who has actually had to work for a living. I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

The U.S. states with the most criminals. 5.Arkansas 4. Mississippi 3. Oklahoma 2. Texas 1. Louisiana The common denominator? Poverty, underfunded education, weak healthcare access, and decades of failed governance dressed up as ‘law and order.’

Trump: "Americans' financial situation -- I don't think about anybody. I think about one thing. We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That's all."

"Rarely, if ever, is anyone given a diplomatic posting directly following such a spectacular failure, especially one that did so much damage to American interests around the world." theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/05/…

🚨BIG NEWS: Governor Gavin Newsom is protecting Californians from Trump’s decision to strip Obamacare funding. His revised budget this week will include $300 million to keep $0 health plans available for lower-income Californians on Affordable Care Act plans.

James Talarico and President Obama greet locals at a restaurant in Austin, Texas today

'Wonderful process'' to draw black members of Congress off the map?

This was how NBC’s ‘Today’ covered on Tuesday the circlejerk between Colbert, Kimmel, Fallon, Meyers, and Oliver, gushing it’s “such a great show...filled with countless jokes, endless laughs” celebrating Colbert’s ‘Late Show’ as having been a home for “a mix of celebrity interviews, political satire, and headline-making monologues.”
