Sen. Cornyn on Trump endorsing Ken Paxton over him:
“If he would do that to me, he would do that to anybody. There’s never going to be good enough for him, other than 100 percent, you know, slavish adherence to whatever he wants. But obviously that’s not what the senator’s role is supposed to be, especially in terms of checks and balances.”
“I think it is going to be a pretty bumpy ride for the next seven months,” Cornyn said in an interview with the NYT. He noted that Trump’s targeting of senators like himself, Sen. Thom Tillis, and Sen. Bill Cassidy gives “Some of us a little more freedom, and certainly leverage.”
“As the president told President Zelensky when he was in his office a year or so ago, he said, ‘You don’t have any cards.’ Well, we’ve got some cards to play,” he added.
Stephen A. Smith fires back at Trump:
“You wanna talk about IQ, I could say I could put my IQ against yours, I got something even better I could ask you why you been running from me for the past year since I asked you to talk to me, I could ask you to debate me since you think you’re that dude. We could go a myriad of ways.”
SUBRAMANYAM: You tweeted in March that the US Navy had successfully escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz. Was that true?
CHRIS WRIGHT: No.
It’s not their flag - it’s ours. It’s a proud American symbol, and it doesn’t belong to Trump or MAGA. This weekend, take back our flag and share with us how you’re displaying your patriotism #TakeBackTheFlag
The “Anti-war” president, who promised to reduce inflation, restarted the war he started and told America “I love inflation” in a single afternoon.
But we are the ones with “TDS”.
The CDC just declared a national emergency for the screwworm spread. @repgabeevans@RepCiscomani you should be screaming about this threat potentially headed to your district's farms. Trump and DOGE brought this on your agriculture industries.
Apparently mainstream media didn't think 38 claims of an "imminent" Iran deal that never happened were enough to establish a pattern worth mentioning. It needed just one more to be sure.
CNN aired a montage of Trump’s past claims that the U.S. was on the cusp of a deal with Iran, with Anderson Cooper noting that today’s announcement marks the 39th time he’s made a similar claim.
Former Mainer here. Yeah, he’s way better. Best candidate Maine has seen in decades. Does he have baggage. Yes. But you should see Susan Collin’s closet.
