US military used to fill stands at a Dump event. 🤦 More & more ressembling USSR, with communism replaced by unrestrained capitalism. At least, USSR didn't make troops pay their way in. Aren't Americans fed up of being led by a fool?

Trump’s moon mission at risk after huge rocket explosion www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

(NYT) - A federal judge in Washington ruled on Friday that President Trump’s name was illegally added to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, writing that the law establishing the center made “crystal clear” that only Congress could change it. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/05...

This is our house. Donald Trump has turned these grounds to trash. He never should have been allowed anywhere near the levers of power. He should be removed from office now.

Georgia certified Trump’s 2020 defeat; courts upheld it. Five years later, Kurt Olsen—a lawyer sanctioned over those rejected claims and appointed by Trump in 2025 to oversee election security—is reopening a probe into the 2020 election. theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/how-long-w...

Maureen Comey was removed just a few weeks before Ghislaine Maxwell had her sex offender status waived so she could be moved to a low-security facility in Texas. Comey was working on an investigation into Epstein co-conspirators that Blanche closed according to whistleblowers.

Josh Marshall: It's critical for Democrats to demonstrate that they're just as able to use political power as Republicans, not just because it's critical that they do so but because it's the only real path back toward some kind of constitutional equilibrium.

Greg Bovino will speak at a white nationalist conference in Portugal tomorrow. He will share the stage with no fewer than five people who idolize Hitler, including one who joined a group created by two Nazi SS members. Another guy is a self-described racist who refers to women as "cockroaches."🧵

His Himmler haircut will finally fit right in.

"Strategic stocks are meant to be the last line of defense, not the first, but this time Washington spent them first, managing headlines, not risk […]."

A Washington state jury found three protesters guilty of federal conspiracy charges for sitting in front of an ICE bus that was attempting to relocate prisoners last year. They face a maximum sentence of six years in prison and/or $250,000 in fines. Important reporting from @rangemedia.co:

“Josh deBerge, a spokesperson for the National Park Foundation, insisted that no money from Freedom 250 is being spent on the IndyCar race or the UFC fights. But the IndyCar race is listed as a “signature” event on the Freedom 250 website…” Los Angeles Times apple.news/A6eAHBWE5RXK...

Trump bought stock in the UFC’s parent company while promoting fights set to take place at the White House on his birthday, HuffPost has learned

The denomination should be less than 18, the age of consent in Florida.

Stephen Colbert has absolutely no reason to do it, and ABC probably wouldn’t want the FCC headache, but it would be very funny if he spent Kimmel’s annual summer vacation guest-hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live! until Labor Day.

A very effective retort. And it explains why Paxton is mortified at the idea of having to debate Talarico, just as he was afraid to debate Cornyn.

Garcia: "We asked Bondi questions about Ghislaine Maxwell and the transfer, and she referred those questions to Todd Blanche and the Bureau of Prisons. So we have many questions for Mr Blanche that Republicans are refusing to ask. Why was she transferred to a less secure facility?"

Fmr. AG Pam Bondi is being questioned by the House Oversight Committee on the DOJ’s handling of the Epstein files. Rep. Suhas Subramanyam (D-VA) joins @alivitali.bsky.social to discuss the interview and why he wants to subpoena acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. www.ms.now/ana-cabrera-...

underrated how many of these guys are just unapologetic liars

my favorite erick erickson moment is when he said that his family refused to eat asian food on the anniversary of pearl harbor to honor the tragedy. a reporter reached out to his mom to confirm whether this was true and she was like “i don’t know what the fuck he is talking about”

Iran Denies Trump Claims On Nuclear Deal – Fars News t.me/farsna/438636

Yikes

Saying blockade will be lifted, we will see the Iranian response if they will allow safe transits

Ouch.

So now Donald Trump is prepared to give Iran a $300 billion investment fund - on top of releasing $25 billion in Iranian frozen assets - just to get back to the status quo before Trump began this war. This is INSANE. (via @nytimes.com)

When I get cranky about not scaring people — even when things are objectively scary! — this is usually what I’m thinking about: the 2019 public-charge policy. NO ONE WAS ACTUALLY DENIED A GREEN CARD UNDER IT. ~40,000 people were scared out of applying at all. documentedny.com/2026/05/29/u...

Former federal judge John Jones on Slush fund: This lawsuit essentially—there was no report of a settlement. It was just a discontinuance of the suit, and then comes the settlement thereafter. In my experience—you don’t do that unless you’re trying to keep something from the presiding judge.

Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, who have been integral to the failed negotiations in the Iran War, have “suggested promoting real estate projects in Tehran and an investment fund in the event a deal was reached” www.nytimes.com/2026/05/28/w...

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked any further action involving Trump’s $1.776 billion fund for fraudsters and insurrectionists, preserving the status quo while litigation moves forward.

Good morning. One of the more enjoyable things I get to do is to complete in the marketplace of ideas & discuss the most important developments that are changing our world. Currently there is no idea more important or interesting than AI. #Econ #EconSky www.forbes.com/sites/brando...

ROSENBERG, on that downward GDP revision to 1.6%: “.. Strip out the swing from the federal government reopening and the contribution from non-farm inventories, and that headline GDP number would have only been +0.8% QoQ annualized.”

In the Senate contest between Ken Paxton and James Talarico, both Republicans and Democrats should prefer a servant leader over a self-serving crook, writes the Editorial Board. bit.ly/4f8kPXl

Amid widespread, flagrant corruption, Donald Trump is trying to impose a gag order on everyone who works in the executive branch. @crampell.bsky.social looks at the latest in a series of efforts to suppress inconvenient information and intimidate those who might hold the admin. accountable.

Now they’ve gone too far www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

CONAN AT HARVARD: “No university in our nation has produced more Nobel laureates or white collar criminals… so whether you choose good or evil, know that you are among the very best.”

The White House has still not released the results of Trump's latest physical examination.
