BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Donald Trump's former economic advisor just admitted on Fox News that inflation is being driven nearly exclusively by bad decisions that Donald Trump has made. Wow.
Since taking office, Ken Paxton has become a multi-millionaire while our pay has stagnated.
He owns 11 homes while most Texans can’t afford one.
He trades favors with rich donors while blocking overtime pay for workers.
Paxton doesn’t serve us — he serves himself.
When Heidi Blake met Andrew Tate at a cigar lounge in Bucharest, he insisted that the current prosecution against him was baseless. But Blake put together an account from leaked files and more than a dozen alleged victims that tells a different story. https://t.co/6gLeAMrZ06
JUST IN: A federal judge put Trump's $1.7 billion slush fund on notice.
Judge Richard Leon pressed DOJ lawyers to put in writing that the fund isn't moving forward. When asked why they wouldn't, the DOJ's answer was: "I don't know."
The fund survived today's hearing, but the judge delivered a pointed warning to the DOJ: if the administration is telling the court the fund is not moving forward, then it better not move forward.

🚨 HATE CRIME? Racist White man with AR-15 and body armor OPENS FIRE on Black family Reunion gathering after shouting slurs
In Leesburg, Lee County, Georgia, on Sunday, a family was having a gathering when Jeffrey Tyler Kinzer leaned out of a car and started hurling racial slurs at them.
Minutes later he returned on foot wearing body armor and carrying an AR-15-style rifle, then opened fire on the group.
The family says it was a clear racially motivated attack.
Kinzer was shot by a 62 year old Marine veteran who stated he wanted to protect roughly 20 children at the gathering.
Sheriff’s Office says it started as a verbal altercation, but witnesses confirm the racial slurs. More charges are expected.
Another white man geared up like he was going to war against a Black family.
THAT GOT QUIET FAST: Jessica Tarlov dismantles Fox talking points with one simple reminder: Donald Trump publicly mocked John McCain.
Her co-host had nowhere to go from there.
A new scientific analysis warns that the Colorado River Basin could face a “system crash” as early as 2028, threatening water supplies for roughly 40 million people across the American Southwest.
The nation’s two largest reservoirs, Lake Mead and Lake Powell, are continuing to decline at an unsustainable rate despite conservation efforts. Experts point to chronic over-allocation, persistent drought, and rising temperatures as the main drivers, creating an annual structural deficit of approximately 2.6 million acre-feet of water.
With 2026 shaping up to be one of the lowest runoff years on record, another dry year could push the reservoirs toward “run-of-the-river” operations. At that point, they would lose most of their storage capacity and simply pass through whatever water flows in from the river, severely limiting their ability to deliver water or generate hydropower.
This would have major consequences for drinking water, agriculture, and electricity generation in seven U.S. states and parts of Mexico. Researchers describe a “ratchet effect,” in which occasional wet years provide only temporary relief before long-term overuse and climate pressures resume the downward trend. Since peaking in the late 1990s, the two reservoirs have lost a massive share of their combined volume.
Experts stress that avoiding a full collapse will require permanent, significant reductions in water use across the basin, far beyond temporary conservation measures, because natural weather variability can no longer compensate for the system’s deep structural imbalance.

The folks at Fox & Friends couldn't figure out why more Republicans didn't vote by mail. They should probably watch some of Trump's speeches and interviews. He's spread misinformation about mail-in ballots for years. The U.S. is NOT the only country that allows vote by mail.
Want to know MAGA's plan to steal the midterms? Look no further than the Los Angeles mayoral race.
As Democratic candidates surge, the president and his allies baselessly cry fraud. https://t.co/l2ulItk1vW
Kids don’t need to be at a protest to be harmed by tear gas.
One Illinois family with children ages 6 to 17 felt the effects of the chemicals inside their home when officers tear-gassed protesters outside an ICE facility more than a block away.

Canadian oil makes up ***62%*** of the amount of oil the U.S. imports and ***25%*** of every barrel that goes into U.S. refineries. how's that for "energy independence"? let that sink in.
Q: You just mentioned you planned to hit Iran and strike them hard tonight. If the response is hitting bridges and infrastructure, how would that not be a war crime targeting civilian infrastructure?
Hegseth: That is precisely the kind of disingenuous question I am used to from the media.
here's the full clip of Rep. Emilia Sykes's brilliant line of questioning that made Chris Wright squirm by confronting him with the completely unhinged comments Trump just made in the Oval Office about inflation and the war in Iran
A nugget buried in the big NYT piece on how the Trump White House had an internal freak-out over the Epstein case....If Bondi didn't use DOJ email, what did she use? I recall a time when the right (and the NYT) went ballistic over a Cabinet official's use of non-gov't email.
🚨EMBARRASSING: Trump’s billionaire buddy, Knicks owner James Dolan canceled the Knicks watch party tonight, AND LIED claiming Mayor Mamdani refused to approve more than 1,000 fans.
Turns out DOLAN HIMSELF requested allowance for up to 999 people on the permit application according to the NYPD.
Here’s Dolan caught on tape ADMITTING his screen could only be seen by 1,000 people.
Mamdani approved exactly what he asked for. Dolan is a liar.👇🏼
