During a Cabinet meeting, President Trump spent five minutes talking about a pen he was holding. He claimed the company gave him a deal to make Sharpies look more official.

Sharpie maker Newell Brands said the conversation as Trump related it did not happen. https://t.co/OtM8Z8VVkY

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

President Trump spent five minutes of his Cabinet meeting boasting of his thrift with a story about negotiating for $5 personalized Sharpies.

The company that makes the permanent markers said the exchange never happened. https://t.co/87XzjYT8Dy

President Trump is telling lie after lie in his push for national restrictions on mail-in voting. Fact check on some of them: https://t.co/jxkKnRd9nf

[Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono]

So he's allowed to vote by mail, but when you do it, it's cheating...

Got it.

What a hypocrite, liar, and a fraud.

[ABC News @ABC]

Public records show that President Trump voted by mail in the special election occurring Tuesday for the statehouse district that includes his Mar-a-Lago estate — in spite of his longstanding rhetoric against voting by mail.

President Trump calls mail-in voting "mail-in cheating." He just cast his ballot by mail. https://t.co/nF1PegLAWn

[The Associated Press @AP]

President Donald Trump has cast another mail ballot in Florida as he continues to publicly bash the voting method as a source of fraud and push Congress to curtail the practice. https://t.co/aWpqKh4kcx

High Point student radio call of the game is what it is all about

[Daniel Dale @ddale8]

Aides to all four other living US presidents tell CNN’s @Sam_Waldenberg and @jeffzeleny that they haven’t spoken to Trump about Iran. Trump claimed today that a former president endorsed the war by telling him “I wish I did what you did.” https://t.co/6OLSeTyUfY

[Brian Schatz @brianschatz]

Secretary Hegseth lacks the emotional maturity for this job. He is incapable of explaining the American position without being belligerent, and he is acting surprised that the things he was presumably briefed would happen are happening.

"In my life, I have watched John Kennedy talk on television about missiles in Cuba. I saw Lyndon Johnson look Richard Russell squarely in the eye and and say, "And we shall overcome." I saw Richard Nixon resign and Gerald Ford tell the Congress that our long national nightmare was over. I saw Jimmy Carter talk about malaise and Ronald Reagan talk about a shining city on a hill. I saw George H.W. Bush deliver the eulogy for the Soviet bloc, and Bill Clinton comfort the survivors of Timothy McVeigh's madness in Oklahoma City. I saw George W. Bush struggle to make sense of it all on September 11, 2001, and I saw Barack Obama sing 'Amazing Grace' in the wounded sanctuary of Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
"These were the presidents of my lifetime. These were not perfect men. They were not perfect presidents, god knows. Not one of them was that. But they approached the job, and they took to the podium, with all the gravitas they could muster as appropriate to the job. They tried, at least, to reach for something in the presidency that was beyond their grasp as ordinary human beings. They were not all ennobled by the attempt, but they tried nonetheless.
"And comes now this hopeless, vicious buffoon, and the audience of equally hopeless and vicious buffoons who laughed and cheered when he made sport of a woman whose lasting memory of the trauma she suffered is the laughter of the perpetrators. Now he comes, a man swathed in scandal, with no interest beyond what he can put in his pocket and what he can put over on a universe of suckers, and he does something like this while occupying an office that we gave him, and while endowed with a public trust that he dishonors every day he wakes up in the White House.
"The scion of a multigenerational criminal enterprise, the parameters of which we are only now beginning to comprehend. A vessel for all the worst elements of the American condition. And a cheap, soulless bully besides. We never have had such a cheap counterfeit of a president* as currently occupies the office. We never have had a president* so completely deserving of scorn and yet so small in the office that it almost seems a waste of time and energy to summon up the requisite contempt.
"Watch how a republic dies in the empty eyes of an empty man who feels nothing but his own imaginary greatness, and who cannot find in himself the decency simply to shut up even when it is in his best interest to do so. Presidents don't have to be heroes to be good presidents. They just have to realize that their humanity is our common humanity, and that their political commonwealth is our political commonwealth, too.
Watch him behind the seal of the President of the United States. Isn't he a funny man? Isn't what happened to that lady hilarious? Watch the assembled morons cheer. This is the only story now."

Congress Is Betraying America's Founders by Ceding Power to Trump

The concentration of power in the modern presidency isn’t an accident. It’s the result of Congress giving up its authority.
