When asked: “The WH understandably protests when people insult First Lady Trump. How does your refusal to criticize Hokit for his remarks about First Lady Obama square with that?” the WH would not directly answer the question.

Asked for comment about UFC Fighter Josh Hokit saying “Michelle Obama is a man” in his post fight interview, WH spokesman Steven Cheung said “He had a great win last night. He showed toughness and the ability to pressure his opponent both on his feet and on the ground.”

“just as the idea of suspending habeas corpus was set aside but never fully abandoned by some inside the WH, the Insurrection Act, at least in the eyes of its proponents, would remain a loaded weapon in a West Wing eager to test the limits of presidential power.” www.nytimes.com/2026/06/15/u...

On that trump interview on nbc —

Just asking Grok some questions

That is some wild, unhinged stuff from the President on Meet the Press. Welker is a good person and honest journalist and didn’t deserve that but more importantly we have a president who constantly pushes conspiracy theories with zero evidence and can’t respond when politely challenged on that.

Meet Bill Pulte, the new acting director of National Intelligence who has no intelligence or national security background and may be best known for using his FHFA perch to go after Trump’s foes for mortgage issues www.cnn.com/2026/06/02/p...

Bill Pulte — who took charge at FHFA/Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac then accused Trump opponents (Schiff, NYAG James, Fed Board’s Cook) of alleged mortgage fraud — to now be entrusted with nation’s most closely held secrets and most intrusive surveillance abilities.

“HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN” the president says about a congressman who hasn’t been seen publicly in nearly three months, hasn’t voted since March 5, and has yet to tell his constituents where he is.

This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

Each Big Slick KC weekend, the guests break up into smaller groups and we visit with patients and their parents at Childrens Mercy, for whom the weekend raises funds. It’s the best part of the weekend.
