Trump believes that the freer and fairer the election, the more likely his party is to get obliterated, and he's certainly not wrong about that www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2026/06/trum...

5. "This story is such a perfect reflection (no pun intended) of Donald Trump’s failures and character flaws that it might have unique power to break through some otherwise impermeable skulls," my pal @booman23.bsky.social said in his newsletter, which I recommend.

The Intriguing Upstate New York Race To Watch open.substack.com/pub/martinlo... For me, this is much more interesting than the Mamdani-endorsed candidates in New York.

Reminder: It was rural Dem county chairs & small groups of organizers who made the difference in Georgia in 2020, giving us a Dem Senate. This isn't a new thing, but it IS a new LEVEL of energy.

It's probably not possible to play guitar better than this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaDh...

One reason why I was happy to pretend Trump had ended the war was because he'll nuke Iran if the humiliation becomes unbearable. My opinion hasn't changed. Dance on the dumbass's Iran policy at your peril. He's got Lindsey Graham in his ear, probably Tom Cotton, too, saying "Do it! Do it! Do it!"

The problem isn’t just that the Trump administration created a giant banner promoting a fake Teddy Roosevelt quote. It’s that Republican officials can’t seem to stop promoting fake quotes from historical figures. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

The other thing you have to remember about Trump is that, even if he isn’t sundowning (he is), he’s also incredibly dumb.

The most ignorant American president ever. What an international embarrassment.

@booman23.bsky.social has been tracking the Dems' chances of taking the Senate. martinlongman.substack.com/p/sen-roger-...

Everyone is panning Trump's capitulation to Iran and rightly so, except that it is the first broadly popular thing he has done in this second term. We live in strange times.

Did not see this one coming.

While I was at SCOTUS this morning, just before our opinions, this came out of the Third Circuit. Check out this report from @abgutman.bsky.social and @fallonroth.bsky.social —>

Here at the Reflecting Pool where a big chunk ofTrump's blue paint-apoxie has peeled off the bottom of the pool and is bobbling in the water.

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

Congo was spectacular. Fun and fearless.

Asked Gemini to tell me how long of a gap there was between the Franklin's Tower is saw the Dead play at the Spectrum in March 1987 and the last time they had played it. It gave me wrong answers for a half hour.

My absolute favorite thing right now is world cup fans visiting from different countries and experiencing American culture shock. Some great examples were a Japanese man losing his mind over free chips in a Mexican restaurant and two British guys at a Buc-ee's trying the fresh BBQ brisket.

Chicken’s so hot they had to call the fire department

Even a guy like Luke Russert referred to the tarp at the Kennedy Center as "try[ing] to stop the Berlin Wall moment". lmfao.

Brasil looks like ass.

Michigan Senate Race Shows Why Schumer's Time is Over open.substack.com/pub/martinlo...

“Why’s it taking so long to take down the name when they put it up so fast?” yeah, undoing every single thing he’s done is gonna be exactly like that, get used to it

If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years — to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting around the time that neanderthals went extinct.

That feeling when you've been waiting for something for four years and it begins in under an hour, and no I don't mean a presidential election.
