Yesterday I told you the government is pulling 900 ocean monitoring instruments out of the water.

Here is the part that should make every American angry, regardless of where you stand on climate.

Congress voted to fund this network. Not once. Twice. The Trump administration proposed cutting it by 80 percent in 2025. Congress restored the money. Proposed the same cut in 2026. Congress restored the money again.

So the administration labeled it a "descope" and ordered the instruments pulled anyway.

That is not a budget disagreement. That is an executive branch telling the legislative branch that its votes do not matter. The public paid for this infrastructure. Congress protected it. One office in Washington decided the public should not have it.

This is the pattern I document in 𝑾𝒆 𝑨𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑩𝒂𝒅 𝑮𝒖𝒚𝒔. It is not about left or right. It is about who decides what Americans are allowed to know about their own planet.

Who should make that call?

It’s more than Trump. It’s the Republicans in the room who smile, but let it go. That’s the poison that has been injected into this country’s veins.

Suozzi: Do you think tariffs have caused prices to go up?

Bessent: Negligibly

Suozzi: You just reduced tariffs the other day on farm equipment because you wanted to reduce prices on farm equipment because you thought it caused the prices to go up

This is who Trump wants to put in the highest levels of America’s counter terrorism agencies.

He’s this J6 terrorist.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

If President Trump has really given up on his $1.8 billion slush fund, then Republicans in Congress should join us in voting to shut it down. My new legislation will eliminate the Trump-Blanche Super Pardon and block any President from using taxpayer dollars to cut partisan loyalty reward checks for convicted felons.

Congress must act decisively to end this presidential plunder of the taxpayers.

Imagine thinking this photo makes Trump look good 🤣🤣🤣

I guess it is better than his 20 second “blink”

[Scott Dworkin @funder]

Scott Pelley looked his new corporate bosses dead in the eye, accused them of murdering "60 Minutes," and was fired.

Thanks for standing up for what’s right Scott!

Reporter: I wanted to ask you about this report that you would only restart the conflict with Iran if they killed US troops. Is that your red line for ending the ceasefire?

Trump: If they killed?

Reporter: US Troops

Trump: What does that mean?

He's standing RIGHT NEXT TO YOU, J.D.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨DONALD TRUMP HAS LOST CONSCIOUSNESS ON LIVE TV.

He’s about to fall out of the chair. This is ridiculous.

Anyone think it’s odd that every event is just a bunch of sycophants standing behind an immobile president pretending it’s normal?

James Carville: “I’m just waiting for the NYT to drop a 5-point series on the depth of this corruption. The corruption is beyond anything, it might be that there’s been more corruption under the administration of Donald Trump than there has in the 250 year history of the US”

Dear Scott Pelley: pull the entire 60 Minutes team together and go to MSNow and offer a package deal to recreate the show for Sunday night and call it The Hour

[Jared Ryan Sears @JaredRyanSears]

It has been 500 days since Joe Biden was president.

It has been 3,422 days since Obama was president.

Anyone who is blaming either of them for the problems happening in America today, of which there are many, is either in denial or a coward.

Trump is the problem.

[Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Once again, Hegseth refuses to advance several eminently qualified women and people of color in the military.

Instead, he is pushing a crony who has been passed over for promotion multiple times.

Our military and our national security suffer from his special brand of malign incompetence.

[Molly Jong-Fast @MollyJongFast]

Why?

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

The Revolt Inside 60 Minutes Just Got Worse.

Legendary correspondent Steve Kroft is now accusing CBS leadership of "journalistic interference."

His verdict?

"It was a slap in the face to everybody who has worked there."

Notice the pattern.

Scott Pelley says he was stonewalled.

Sharon Alfonsi says Pelley was fired for asking questions.

Now Steve Kroft says management is interfering with journalism.

At some point, this stops looking like a personnel dispute.

And starts looking like a newsroom rebellion.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

The House just passed the Democratic resolution requiring Donald Trump to end his reckless and costly war of choice in Iran.
