Total loss for the Trump admin on its attack against Anthropic.

And we still have not figured out what is going on in that bank account in Quatar? Is that how he is paying for the White House renovations? Can we see the invoices? Did he put the gold from Venezuela in the bank account?

Fox host: I think it is alarming that we have not been able to see or hear from any of the Iranian people. Do they have drinking water, food? Trump: Do you remember when we had lunch years ago at Trump Tower? You have not changed. You may be even better looking.

Claims of a 'quiet revival' of churchgoing among young people was based on an error in the YouGov data. Academics had been pointing out that this was not found in other data www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

When the FBI raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, finding the former president had stolen hundreds of classified documents, one question stood out: Why? Former special counsel Jack Smith has concluded that Trump took the documents to help advance his business interests. trib.al/MjvDL3A

So, Trump gets to do whatever he wants. Power of the purse, eh?

Here is a helpful Table of the CDC Director goat rodeo under RFK Jr. Other than Dr. Monarez, who was fired by RFK Jr. for having a brain and integrity, none of the acting directors appointed by this dummy are even qualified.

Steve Witkoff is so bad at his job that he doesn't realize that he is not, in fact, a member of the Cabinet and he does not, in fact, report to the president. He's a special envoy and, in a nation that is not a monarchy, he reports to the Secretary of State

Unbelievable . . . The Vice President of the United States is going to Hungary to actively campaign for Viktor Orban, an autocrat who is allied with Russia.

This is just an incredible visual model of what being on X is like

I’d be shocked if we got 50 days

The Republicans really are going to bet it all on a plan that runs straight into the teeth of American greed and selfishness. Good luck with that.

I was pretty confident this was the case. Nice to see confirmation.

Well... certainly it seems that way. ysph.yale.edu/news-article...

Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

It seems like there was a multi-decade consensus that the US probably could keep the strait open with force, but maybe not, so it was better for everyone to not answer the question. Now we're on our way to answering it and every day our ability to make that threat is less credible.

This has been the GOP's "starve-the-beast" scheme for nearly 50 years. Meanwhile, millions suffer and struggle to get ahead as the rich get richer. See the problem here?

"3+5= ?"

Just the President of the United States again saying insanely, unapologetically, shamelessly racist shit, and the extremely powerful people around him nodding in agreement. How far back in time would you have to go to find another U.S. president saying something this bigoted in public?

Miami is the new San Francisco, with the highest out-migration rate of all large metros. jedkolko.substack.com/p/with-less-...

Another example of this: Dems asking for ICE/CBP restrictions. They say, "All we're asking for is the same rules that govern local police. All we're asking for is something reasonable that most Americans support." To which the right responds: You leftist terrorists want to murder law enforcement.

"Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof - the smoking gun - that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud."

We have now three examples of the Trump Administration “jooking” the justice system: (1) Bill Pulte’s referral to Jason Quinones in FL; (2) consolidation of all Somali dockets in Louisiana; and (3) the “settlement” of major claims, in favorable jurisdictions like TX and FL.

TRUMP: I did a mail in ballot for elections in Florida because I felt I should be here REPORTER: You were in Palm Beach the last few weekends TRUMP: Yeah. And I decided that I was going to vote by mail in ballot because I had a lot of different things

The ancient scrolls tell us that, in the Before Time, a president's admission that his administration had not considered the obvious likelihood of the war widening when they first attacked Iran would lead to immediate congressional hearings.

Trump: "I used a mail-in ballot. You know why? Because I'm President of the United States and because of the fact that I'm President of the United States, I did a mail-in ballot."

Days after railing against mail-in ballots, Trump says it's okay for him to use a mail-in ballot because he is president

Trump: "The amazing thing is we don't need the Hormuz Strait. We don't need it. We don't need it at all. We have so much oil. Our country is not affected by this."

All of the sudden the war starts

Is it good when a federal judge issues a preservation order against ... the U.S. Attorney's Office?

Iran War to be paid for out of cuts to state and local programs for Americans.

NEW: The FBI went down to Georgia, looking for some ballots to seize. Now, in an Atlanta courtroom tomorrow morning, the government must defend a search warrant built on recycled fraud claims & glaring omissions. My primer on Fulton County’s battle for ballots: www.lawfaremedia.org/article/fult...

ethical people should not be using right wing propaganda websites owned by white supremacists

NEWS: Federal judge quashes subpoena for testimony of Hugh Raymond Evans, the FBI agent who swore out the affidavit in support of the warrant to search Fulton County election records. Order comes ahead of evidentiary hearing tomorrow on Fulton County's motion for return of the ballots.

From our new poll: ICE agents are the least trusted law enforcement personnel in the country www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-03-26...

NEW: The government tells Americans to use VPNs to protect their privacy. The government also automatically presumes communications of unknown origin are foreign. Foreign communications don't require a warrant to wiretap. Lawmakers who've done the math want answers. My latest @wired.com:

Nearly half a billion dollars were bet on the price of oil falling just minutes before Trump announced a ceasefire with Iran.

After seemingly struggling to obtain enough signatures, Republicans submitted a huge batch right at the deadline. But opponents asked signatories—some of whom said they'd been duped into signing—to remove their names. A sufficient number did to knock the ballot measure below the minimum.

Everyone is always begging Trump for mercy. He put out a bunch of these when he was issuing tariffs on Truth Social last year - every country was supposedly begging him for a “deal.”

Governed by morons. "Facing record-high wait times at airport security checkpoints, President Donald Trump turned to an idea that gained traction after a woman from Arizona called into a right-wing talk radio show: send in immigration agents." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Under Maryland criminal code, calling ICE in order to obtain something of value (e.g., labor) is extortion. Maryland Criminal Law § 3-701, the Prevent Extortion from Immigrants Act, makes this a felony punishable by 10-20 years in prison depending on the value she allegedly obtained.

6:49am: sudden spike in oil futures trading. no news. no announcement. nothing public. 7:05am: trump announces a pause on iran strikes. markets move. someone knew. 16 minutes early. $580 million in contracts. the corruption is staggering.

The ICE operations in Manhattan courts that advocates and politicians consistently warned appeared illegal were, in fact, illegal.

"When you consider all the things that Trump rejects or the Republicans reject as too costly, the fact that they have now spent $30 billion in effectively the span of a month ... is really somewhat staggering.” talkingpointsmemo.com/news/joe-mor...

Breaking WaPo: Trump showed a classified map he retained from his first term in office to passengers on a 2022 private plane flight and retained another record so sensitive that only six high-ranking government officials had access to it, according to a prosecution memo released to Congress.
