Whoa. Jeff Daniels. Did any of you see/hear him perform that song he wrote, "This Crazy World," on Deadline White House? The lyrics are beautiful and poignant, and... Wow. Just when I'd thought I couldn't love Jeff Daniels more than I already do, he does THAT.

Reading much tonight on Charlie Kirk, who he was, what he said and believed -- from both admirers and those deeply opposed. It does not matter. None of it. What matters is that political violence made routine against any voice, left or right, marks us as a failing, dying republic. This is horror.

Remember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal. Then she fired that lawyer.

Trump is RIGHT NOW babbling like a lunatic, flattering people who funded 9/11, ignoring SCOTUS, taking bribes from a Hamas funder, and kidnapping people from the streets and trafficking them to Central America. So CNN goes back to this now irrelevant old news? Why I haven't watched them in YEARS.

In today’s “Wait A Damn Minute” we expose the truth about Trump’s so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”: Trump is pulling a reverse Robin Hood - he’s taking from the poor to give to the ultra-rich. I’m your Shadow Press Secretary and here are the facts.
