@SenFettermanPA It’s not so much the money it’s the way in which it’s been done. Trump wanting it done like it’s his own backyard except he’s using his neighbors credit card to pay for it

NEW: The cost of President Trump's plan to repair the Reflecting Pool has jumped by 88 percent, to $13.1M, gov't records show.
The price appears to include a 20 percent profit margin for Trump's handpicked contractor, who got the job in a no-bid contract.

I don’t know how many times I’ll have to repeat this, but here we go.
The money he keeps ranting about was Iran’s money that we owed for military equipment the Shah bought but we never delivered (plus interest). We repaid it to settle a dispute before the Iran-US Claims Tribunal because we would’ve had to pay far more if the tribunal had ruled in that case.
The cash he’s talking about was delivered in Swiss Francs and Euros because we could not actually transfer dollars to Iran.

#BREAKING: MY Nicolle: “I’ve not heard you this angry in a long time.”
Marc Elias: “…have we learned nothing?…has the broader legal community not leaned anything?…have people not learned that when you do this to Black voters it turns out bad for democracy for everybody? So yeah, I’m angry. I’m angry because of the appalling SILENCE that is going on right now around this case and the aftermath.”😳

There's an obvious reason why the Republican Supreme Court Justices sound so nervous. During their confirmation hearings, these justices sat under oath and promised that Roe v. Wade was settled law. They lied. They told us they were independent. Then they quietly accepted luxury mega-yacht vacations from right-wing billionaires, flew insurrectionist flags outside their homes, and used shadow dockets to dismantle decades of worker and environmental protections.
Now, trying to persuade the public that a Republican-controlled Court issuing Republican-friendly decisions is not a Republican body has never been more difficult.
Now that their public approval has cratered, they are showing up to fancy think tanks to complain that Americans are being unfair to them. They are desperately demanding to be treated like impartial umpires who simply call balls and strikes.
But, ultimately, you do not get to strip away the bodily autonomy of millions of women, pocket millions in undisclosed gifts from conservative mega-donors, and then cry about a lack of respect.

@Amy_Siskind @WhimsyTX It’s all about a manufactured image that he’s doing/did something great.

Trump is sticking banners around D.C., thanking himself, for stuff he is doing in that city that no one wants. Just unbelievable.
I gifted this so you can read it.

The Supreme Court just ruled that a racial gerrymandering claim must include intentional discrimination.
Tennessee Republicans have immediately responded by stopping early voting in order to split apart the only majority black district in the state.
What more do you need to show intentional discrimination?
This is Jim Crow 2.0 and cannot stand.

I am the reporter here — and imho the question should be asked more often.
More than 100 children were reported killed at Minab.

Reporter: We’re almost 10 weeks since a missile hit a school in Iran. Who fired that missile? Trump: That’s under study. We’ll give you a report when we have it.
