Obama did it for less, AND didn't blow up any schools or cost America $50B or close the strait- and he actually did it. Trump SAYS he's got an agreement, but Trump thinks he's Jesus, so...

Fashion Police capitol of the US? Ohio GOP trying to pass an anti-drag law so extreem that a woman could be arrested for wearing a swimsuit, halter top or T shirt w/o a bra. Ohio is 39th in economy, 44th in school funding & 44th on health, but instead of more housing or better wages, they do this.

"You are now reportedly participating as 'Special Envoy for Peace' in negotiations on behalf of the U.S. to address the roiling conflicts in the Middle East. At the same time, you are soliciting *billions* of dollars from Gulf monarchies for your private business ventures” (Judiciary Comm.)

The entire Trump team is made of weirdos, idiots, bunglers and outright crooks.

What emerges is a portrait of a leader increasingly detached from reality, alienating his own base while doubling down on grandiose claims, as insiders scramble, critics demand cognitive testing, and the stakes climb toward something far more consequential than political controversy.

Trump's completely warranted feud with the pope and why depicting himself as Dr. Jesus Christ is the funniest joke of all time.

For Anyone Who’s Confused

Federal Bureau of Intoxication Sarah Fitzpatrick talks with Jen about her reporting about a bizarre freak-out by FBI director Kash Patel when he thought being unable to log into his work computer meant he'd been fired by Trump, and episodes of excessive drinking that alarmed his FBI colleagues.

"Sources described Patel’s tenure as a management failure and his personal behavior as a national-security vulnerability," said the report. "We’ve got this clown binge drinking and partying!" "Drunk Podcasters shouldn’t be leading the FBI"

It's almost like Trump is letting his pals know what he's going to do in exchange for a cut of their gains....

I put out a montage of him a while ago sniffling in nearly every podcast interview he did for two years, but maybe that wasn’t the only thing he had going on.

If you can't say "black" then you can't study conditions that affect black citizens. Musk's minions killed any grant that specified "women" too, so, since childbirth is exclusively a FEMALE condition, does that mean the US won't be studying maternal mortality AT ALL?

It was a lie when Reagan said it. It was a lie when W said it. It's a lie when Trump says it. We're CUTTIN FOOD PROGRAMS for kids so the rich can have more and in return... they're casting their workers aside.

We're glad that the war is... maybe? winding down and that there is... possibly? an agreement to open the Strait. But the United States is WORSE off than we were before Operation Epic Failure started! Now he wants a medal for only kicking off a global recession & not a World War.

Caitlyn Jenner discovered that those anti-trans laws also apply to HER, and that's troubling. 😢 "I can't travel internationally now" that my passport says "Male". Yeah welcome to the real world of anti-trans bigotry, brought to you by your friends Trump & the GOP.

I'm so old, I remember when Trump screamed that "OBAMA IS PAYING IRAN TO SIGN THE DEAL!!" when he released frozen Iranian assets in exchange for a good solid deal. But when Trump does the same thing, it's *WINNING*

No wonder Trump hooked up with RFK Jr. They are both INSANE and RACIST as hell.

In this week's Intel Brief, we dig into a few big issues: 1️⃣ An update on the war in Iran 2️⃣ How the war is causing rising costs across the board 3️⃣ NSPM-7, the President's domestic terrorist executive order, 4️⃣ A big development in AI on cyber vulnerabilities

It's the Trump Doctrine: When you lose, just scream "Wow What an amazing WIN!" and give yourself a parade!

An oldie but goodie

If MAGA is going to attack the Pope for speaking out against wars of aggression, they're not just taking on Leo.

We don't know what demons drive him, but he is a racist freak who is killing people. It just adds to the tragedy that his father was such a genuinely good man. 😞

📌We have arrived at a game-changing, history-making moment in the never-ending battle of good vs. evil, as the Catholic Church again walloped “filth” like Trump who “manipulate the very name of God for their own military, economic and political gain.“ Unprecedented. Welcome. Necessary.

MAGA REPUBLICANISM REVEALED

We don't want to pour our blood and treasure into wars of VANITY that leave us worse off then we were before. The American Dream can only be realized by investing in PEOPLE, not corporate executives.

It’s chaotic, it’s surreal, and it’s another reminder that the line between spectacle and reality isn’t just blurred—it’s gone. A different kind of Holy War has begun.

"How much do I know To talk out of turn You might say that I'm young You might say I'm unlearned But there's one thing I know Though I'm younger than you That even Jesus would never Forgive what you do" ('Masters of War' by Bob Dylan)

In many ways, "American exceptionalism" really just means that Americans are exceptionally stupid.

Name even one. You say you're more gospel-y than anyone has ever been... more about the gospel than the Pope, but we're betting you can't even say what the Gospels ARE.

Pope Leo issued a warning against those "who manipulate religion & the very name of God for their own military, economical, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth." Lawrence explains why most of the world interpreted that as a description of Donald Trump…

Ronny Chieng plunges into America's evolving war with Iran, how global fuel shortages are making Thai news anchors sweaty, whether Iran's AI video of Jesus casting Trump into hell falls under Hegseth’s “patriotic” label, and how all this chaos is somehow improving the U.S. stock market…

Pope Leo XIV just dropped a devastating Donald diss track.

The Trump administration is waging a war of words against Pope Leo XIV, Pete Hegseth read a prayer from the book of Tarantino, and a sneaker brand is reinventing itself as an artificial intelligence company.

Democrat Analilia Mejia has won the special election to fill New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill’s seat in the U.S. House, NBC News projects, defeating Trump Republican Joe Hathaway. Steve Kornacki breaks down the numbers.

He desperately needs a straight jacket in a quiet cell.

Oh for F's sake! That poll asked people who ⭐still identify as MAGA⭐ if they support you, not all voters, or even registered Republicans! You are in NEGATIVE territory across the board. Nobody believes YOU any more! Lie to yourself, but it won't help in the voting booth.

Republican operatives and Trump administration allies are reportedly exasperated by the president's series of political and economic failures. Nicolle is joined by Basil Smikle and Adrienne Elrod for analysis.

"One thing I find incredible is that you suspended this pro-vaccine messaging campaign, but you are spending taxpayer dollars to drink milk shirtless in a hot tub with Kid Rock, and somehow you think *that's* a better public health message than informing the public about the importance of vaccines?"

Trump is now in negative numbers with his base: white guys without a degree. He's down 21 points with them in just a year. Even his loyalists can see that he's just not well and he's making their lives harder.

Trump is serious the way a brain tumor is serious.

Because cruelty is *definitely* the point, Trump shouted "Oh yeah!" at the Vatican and 'obliterated' funding for a program the church runs to house and foster unaccompanied immigrant minors.
