St. Andrews world famous Swilcan Bridge on the 18th hole. Every great golfer who has ever lived since the 1600’s has walked across that bridge.

🇺🇲Le sénateur Jim Himes du Connecticut :
"Je viens de rentrer d'Ukraine. Les gens que j'y ai rencontrés sont les plus courageux que j'aie jamais vus. Ils luttent chaque jour contre la tyrannie russe. Nous sommes à un tournant : le Congrès peut débattre pendant des mois, ou bien nous pouvons soutenir ceux qui se battent pour la liberté, comme nous l'avons toujours fait. Je sais de quel côté je me situe. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦"

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Unfortunately, the Russian side once again chooses war – everyone heard the response today. Weak response. He simply does not want to end the war.

I think many around the world were disappointed by that response. He does not want to change anything, and he does not want to admit that this war appeals only to him – and to those who are making money off him. They were all smiling very broadly today.

That means Russia must have less money, and there must be more pressure on Russia.

I thank everyone who is helping us. I thank everyone who stands with Ukraine and wants a real peace.

Booker to Rubio: We are the strongest nation on the planet and we're in a stalemate with Iran, and now we're begging to get back into a deal that you all trashed in the first place.

Hilary Clinton, who didn’t even know Jeffrey Epstein, had to testify before Congress.

Yet Melania Trump, who was Jeffrey Epstein’s sloppy seconds, and who knows EVERYTHING gets a pass.

[House Judiciary Dems @HouseJudiciary]

How did Donald Trump give himself, his family, and their businesses a Super Pardon for all their crimes, back taxes, fines, and other payments due to the federal government?

Meet Todd Blanche, Trump’s personal criminal defense lawyer now assigned to the Department of Justice, who gave his boss and former client, Donald Trump, a family-sized stack of get-out-of-jail-free cards.

The Freedom 250 concert got canceled. UFC fighters are backing out. His name will be removed from The Kennedy Center. The $1.776 billion slush fund is dead. Watching Trump’s vanity projects crash and burn has been giving me life.
F**ck that loser.

I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflections…
He’s a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The “Reflection Pool” wasn’t designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. It’s designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
It’s designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
He’s a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isn’t becoming great, it’s becoming vulgar.

Richard Gere on Trump: “We’re living in the darkest moment that I’ve experienced on this planet. Whoever thought America could turn like this? Whoever thought that a maniac like this would be president and dismantle all the good things? America’s never been a perfect place, but it has a perfect ideal. First day this guy dismantled almost everything that was good about the US government and people”

Sen. @JeffMerkley to Rubio: You have expressed that no one died as a result of the shutdown of USAID. I want to note that it's estimated that over 500,000 children have died from that shutdown. I hope you ponder that as we strive to rebuild programs related to malaria, tuberculosis, AIDS, HIV, nutrition, and Ebola.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

When I called out Trump years ago for being a danger to democracy, a free press, and truth itself, I was accused of making myself the story and showboating. How did things turn out? Trump is all of those things. Tonight, the free press is very much in danger in America. Wake up!

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

New statement from Scott Pelley:

“Last month, 60 Minutes lost its DNA when our entire senior leadership and two of our best on-air correspondents were cruelly fired without cause. Good people were silenced because they stood up for our audience. They stood for fairness against the forces of political bias; they stood for professionalism against chaos.

For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them. Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done. Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.

At 60 Minutes, we have fought harder than anyone knows to save the program that became an American icon. We owed that to our millions of viewers. I am deeply moved by the thousands of wishes we have received to “keep up the good fight.” Most of the men and women of CBS News are still in that fight. But now the collapse of values at the top has become untenable. The leadership of 60 Minutes is no longer recognizable. The principles I hold dear are gone, and so I must leave as well.”

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

By firing Scott Pelley, editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss has single-handedly destroyed the most brilliant investigative newsmagazine in network history, 60 Minutes. Weiss exemplifies everything MAGA is about: ego, incompetence, and blithering idiocy.

Recent reports reveal that Pete Hegseth's Pentagon has hired a convicted January 6th rioter for a role that handles classified military operations.

[chiky handler @chiky_handlr]

Trump is now suggesting January 6 was an inside job, claiming, “The FBI said, ‘Go in, go in!’”

One problem: Trump was the president on January 6, and the FBI director at the time was his own appointee.

I want to thank all the partners who are helping us receive Patriot interceptors through PURL. By doing so, you are saving lives in Ukraine.

But the current volume and pace of deliveries are not enough. We need more Patriot interceptors, and we need them delivered faster.

That's why the key thing we need to do together is ensure continued support for our air defense so that Ukraine can defend itself against both cruise missiles and ballistic missiles.

There are enough missiles in the world to provide that protection. What is needed is a political will to make sure Ukraine receives them.

I recently sent a special letter to the President of the United States and to members of Congress on this issue, and I ask for your support in helping ensure a positive response.

From an address to the participants of the NATO–Ukraine Council meeting in Kyiv (4/5).
