Trump was handed the opportunity to preside over a feel-good moment of national unity on July 4, 2026. All he had to do was for once in his life, not act like an egomaniacal lunatic. Instead, he's made a complete fiasco of the nation's 250th birthday.

JUST IN: Iran has suspended talks and message exchanges with the United States in protest of Israel’s military actions in Lebanon, according to Iran’s Tasnim News Agency.

7 lies in 2 sentences. Only in Trumpworld.

"Relying on the White House is tricky," Punchbowl News reports. "Many Senate Republicans don’t trust the administration to honor its word, made worse by Trump’s toppling of GOP Sens. John Cornyn (Texas) and Bill Cassidy (La). All it takes to derail the process is four Republicans." #J6SlushFund

A reminder that DOJ has sued 30 states for access to their sensitive voter files. DOJ is currently 0-8 in decided cases. This is what I mean when I say the future of democracy is on the docket. www.democracydocket.com

The U.S. just had its worst year for international tourism since the pandemic and it wasn’t even close. While the rest of the world broke records in 2025, America was the only country out of 184 to see a drop in foreign visitor spending.

Current stock market rally may be far more tenuous than investors realize. Inflation threatens to be bull market's silent killer, latest inflation update from Fed points to fireworks on Wall Street… Old adage, ‘Buy Low, Sell High’ has significant relevance right now… www.fool.com/investing/20...

BREAM: The Journal says percentage of delinquent credit card balances is 13%, the highest in 15 years. People are using them for necessities. Your message to them? HASSETT: We talk to CEOs of the credit card companies all the time, and there's not any threat to them. People are taking a bit longer.

It’s amazing to me that Republican senators are against the slush fund because they don’t wanna defend it on the campaign trail, but they want to fund ICE and CBP and are cool with defending *that* on the campaign trail.

“He was literally just talking” Hey @mikiesherrill.bsky.social u up?

NEW: lots of you have sent me this article asking for my thoughts. I’ve been able to confirm it. Just as she says, Trump’s administration is staging vote.gov on a non-government cloudflare account under the EOP where there’s no oversight or accounting. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/thedreyd...

The SEC has formally proposed scrapping the rule that would have required publicly traded companies to disclose their climate-related risks to investors.

The World Cup and human trafficking: What the research reveals about the real risks at major sporting events Public awareness campaigns around the World Cup and other sporting events are well intentioned – but not backed by research. ...

Demanding constitutional oversight, Governor Sherrill insists on closing the facility: "It must be transparent about who is being held at that facility. I'll keep pressing DHS to do better, to abide by our nation's Constitution, and to close #DelaneyHall down for good."

The president is so good at these cognitive tests no other president has been required to take.

It’s just stunning. The White House trailer park.

MacFarlane: What the historic preservationists are arguing is that the Reflecting Pool is supposed to be the color it’s always been. It’s supposed to be what they call achromatic—no color. Because when it doesn’t have color, it does a better job of reflecting…

Maybe if he hadn’t been telling us for 3 months that a surrender deal with Iran was imminent he wouldn’t have to post at 1:02 AM that he has no idea how to get out of this war while accomplishing anything meaningful.

Coming from a hardcore MAGA family, I don't understand the relentless push to excuse Trump voters. They weren't "betrayed" & they absolutely DID vote for this--they just wanted *this* to happen to others & were too selfish & stupid to realize *this* would inevitably come for them. Orwell got it:

Food prices keep going up. Farmers are struggling to stay afloat. Families are struggling to afford groceries. So if everybody is losing, why are the biggest food corporations making more money than ever? That's the question Washington doesn't want to ask. Leadership Matters! #GA14

When we learn to see beauty in ordinary moments, our homes become happier places and our lives feel richer, more meaningful, and lovely. May we all notice the simple blessings around us.

Trump wants to hand out 250 pardons this summer to celebrate America’s 250th birthday. And guess who’s lining up for a pardon? Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted of helping sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein recruit and groom underage girls…

BREAKING NEWS: Glen Miller and his Orchestra will not be performing at the Freedom 250 concert.

Ossoff details "Prince Eric and Prince Don's" corrupt dealings in Kazakstan and says, "here's the bottom line. If you're involved in any of this, next year you'll raising your right hand and swearing to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help you God in front of Congress"

Home Foreclosures soared 26% during the first quarter 🚨🚨

It’s past the point of parody 😂

I believe Xi made a deal with Trump: Look the other way on Taiwan, and in exchange Beijing will purchase enough Trump meme coins to make him wealthier than the CEOs who accompanied him at the summit.

Ossoff: "While you pay more for everything, Donald Trump wants your tax dollars for what many are calling the Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Ballroom."

there's playing the hits then there's running this chyron in May 2026

NEWSWEEK: “States where Trump’s approval rating has crashed the most… Just outside the top tier, Idaho, Tennessee and Montana also fall by 19 points…” www.newsweek.com/map-donald-t...

Donald spent Saturday complaining on the internet. Six hours, 52 posts.

“If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed." ”A lie told once remains a lie but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth." **Origin & Context — These sayings are tied to 20th-century Nazi propaganda.

Trump lost his war and is now bargaining from a position of weakness. Any deal to open the strait is going to cost tens of billions of dollars - a strait that was open before Trump and Bibi went in guns blazing.

Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

Fox News ran a segment featuring Jim Jordan tonight. The talking point was questioning Joe Biden’s mental fitness while in office. I can’t think of a more tone deaf conversation! Unbelievable!

An actual Fox News chyron from tonight…from May 31, 2026.👇

I want a president who investigates people who sexually assaulted women in the Epstein files, not a president who investigates a woman he sexually assaulted.

Republicans will run ads in Maine blasting Platner over extramarital sexts while running ads in Texas supporting Paxton who has extramarital affairs

Sen. Jon Ossoff: This is the cruelest and most arrogant group of people who have ever ascended to high office—and their cruelty and arrogance are matched only by their incompetence.

NEWS: Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed a law requiring Virginia education officials to review how January 6 is taught in schools—pushing back against efforts to rewrite history and whitewash the attack on our democracy. Read more:

Independent: MAGA woman breaks into tears when she realizes that the watch face of the $640 pink Trump themed Special Edition timepiece purchased by her husband for her from GetTrumpWatches.com reads “RUMP”. “We expected it would have the integrity of the President”. Oh, honey, it does. 🤡🤡🤡😝

There is no world in which this is okay.     Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito did not recuse himself from cases involving Trump’s Treasury Department while his own son was secretly working there as a political appointee and attorney. 🧵
