🚨 WOW! CNN Analyst Harry Enten confirms Gavin Newsom is brilliantly outsmarting Donald Trump. By aggressively standing up to the former President, Newsom generated a massive 635 percent spike in support.
The Democratic base is energized to defeat the corrupt establishment.
Breaking News: The Justice Dept. is seeking to throw out a lawsuit against Elon Musk’s company, xAI, over the data center's air pollution, saying it has the right to run polluting gas-burning turbines in Mississippi despite not having permits for them. https://t.co/CxztBM0baD
Wow. The Trump regime is now effectively telling Americans: don't read the actual agreement.
A U.S. official says the MOU should be viewed as a vague "political document," and says "people shouldn't read too much into the language" when the text is released.
Sen. @brianschatz: If this deal is so good, why can't the public see it? Donald Trump hasn't made anything materially better. 13 service members dead. 3,000 Iranians killed, billions of dollars, maybe hundreds of billions of dollars in 3 months, and prices spiked everywhere. There is a reason they are not publishing this deal and it's because it makes plain that this is one of the biggest foreign policy blunders in many generations.
MS NOW EXCLUSIVE:
Kash Patel may have a 'personal slush fund' of taxpayer dollars to pay loyalist agents, according to Rep. Jamie Raskin.
Raskin is demanding documents from Patel — citing claims that $8,000 payments are made to agents who carry out "unlawful partisan and personal orders." https://t.co/ZOU8iRxj2u
BREAKING: Bloomberg has secured a copy of Donald Trump’s peace plan that hands $300 billion to Iran. This arguably could be the biggest scandal of Trump’s entire second term.
It's only Tuesday and Trump has fucked up a pool for $14 Million, lost a war agreeing to pay Iran $300 Billion, and ballooned his already expensive ballroom budget by another $200 Million.
Where are the Republicans screaming about "waste, fraud and abuse"?
Rachel Maddow tonight talking about how Trump is trying to stop the opening of the US Canada Gordie Howe International bridge.
Because while the bridge was 100% funded by Canada, Donald wants half ownership for the US.
We don't have a president. We have a mob boss.
This is how you capture the press. You let the friendly billionaire buy it, and you clear the path.
Here’s what just happened:
Career DOJ antitrust lawyers spent months investigating Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. They were leaning toward challenging it as anticompetitive. Then leadership shut it down before staff could even file their recommendation.
Paramount is run by David Ellison, son of Trump ally Larry Ellison. And Warner Bros owns CNN.
Ellison told Trump officials he would make sweeping changes to CNN. He already installed Bari Weiss atop CBS News, and she is expected to help oversee CNN. As Pete Hegseth said out loud, “the sooner David Ellison takes over that network the better.”
So connect the dots.
A regulator overrides its own experts to greenlight a deal.
The deal hands a Trump ally control of a major newsroom. And the administration barely hides its enthusiasm for what comes next.

SCOOP from @By_CJewett & me:
Markwayne Mullin urged @HHSGov to remove warnings from the @US_FDA website about the health risks of the gas station drug kratom.
Mullin owns equity in a leading kratom company called Botanic Tonics that could have benefited. https://t.co/rzkImei3VI
Just sat down with this piece and…whew.
“Inside the White House, Mr. Miller, the influential deputy chief of staff, saw an opening for an idea he had raised previously: What if Mr. Trump simply claimed the power to suspend habeas corpus?
Then the locked-up immigrants would be blocked from receiving hearings or even from seeking court orders to prevent their removal from the country. This was an opportunity for Mr. Trump not only to speed up deportations, but also to assert vastly expanded power over a legal system that was getting in his way.”

NYT Bombshell: Blanche’s push to release Epstein grand jury files was purely a political stunt. He knew there was nothing significant in them and knew judges wouldn’t release them.
The goal? Shift blame from Trump to the judges.
Congress and the courts must investigate.
Why has @SecRubio gone radio silent on the Iran deal?
Is the Administration letting @JDVance be the fall guy for when the language of the deal is released?
If the Administration was proud of the deal they would have released the text, instead of sending Vance to do spin.
The kleptocracy never ends. Trump used the White House as a backdrop for a cage match.
At the same time, the Trump family is selling $12,000 coins to profit off the event.
They’re not draining the swamp. They are the swamp.
He sent 13 service members to their deaths over “not very valuable stuff”?
168 Iranian school girls.
Thousands of civilians killed.
Our bases badly damaged.
Stockpiles depleted.
$80 billion price tag.
$6 gas.
For “not very valuable stuff”?
