Rosie closes her final monologue on JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE singing a traditional Irish classic.

@davidaxelrod @realDonaldTrump @ossoff Exposing her was important part of his message. She is a national security problem, and her role as nursemaid illustrates how weak and unwell POTUS is. Keep up.

No sabría ni por dónde empezar a explicar la importancia de este vídeo en términos de comunicación política. Dura 22 segundos. No hacen falta ‘masterclasses’ de dos horas.

Reconocer un error y disculparse en política es un arte. Hacerlo en menos de medio minuto, convertirlo en una oportunidad y salir incluso reforzado se hace así 👇

A 24-year combat veteran just said what every professional soldier needs to hear.
Maj. (Ret.) Richard Ojeda Airborne Sapper has the names of 13 of his brothers who never came home tattooed on his back.
His message to Trump and the generals:
“I’m speaking to you as a soldier. On my back I have the name of 13 of my brothers who did not return home from war.
They did not die for THIS.

I gave this country 24 years of service. I won’t sit silent while you aim the weapons of war inward on American soil, against our own citizens.

REMEMBER YOUR OATH.”
The oath is to the Constitution not to a man, not to a party.
This is the line that separates professional armies from political militias.
Watch it.
Share it.
Don’t look away.

Check out @AndrewPollackFL claiming the grown adult who compared Obama to a monkey needs to be treated with deference.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani is answering a question about the racist remarks certain people are spewing about him & Muslims. He answers the questions so eloquently even though you know that he’s probably sick of answering them by now. He speaks a lot like Barack Obama from the heart.

Ossoff: While the sailors on the Lincoln fight his war, while he fruitlessly drains our munitions and oil reserves, the president sleeps through his meetings. He golfs and trades stocks. So he doesn’t want to do the job. He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar.

@cunha_tristan @mattyglesias Masked police executing citizens on the street. DOJ not complying with the law, fabricating evidence to arrest innocent citizens, and being admonished for jury tampering. Dismantling of much of the civil service by an unelected billionaire. President starting illegal wars, etc.

[Clash Report @clashreport]

Zohran Mamdani:

We’re not running away from the Democratic Party. We’re going back to what the party used to be.

You think about FDR and LaGuardia. You think about the New Deal. That’s what the Democratic Party once was. That’s what it could be again.

And if we want to win, I think that’s what we have to become.

As Trump and Rogers try to define @AbdulElSayed as a scary terrorist, here's what might be the ad of the year.
And if you know where Livingston County is, it is a far exurb of Detroit - a swing district (actually, it's more Republican).
I wonder if the national news media will show this ad since it helps to begin to break the stereotypes about Abdul

[Craig Mauger @CraigDMauger]

Interesting start to the general election campaign in Michigan.

Mike Rogers described Abdul El-Sayed as “anti-American” and tied him to Hasan Piker on Wednesday.

Democrats dropped this video:

Credit to the Democratic establishment that made this ad. Nice work.

[Jonah Goldberg @JonahDispatch]

I don’t want to be an alarmist, but a commander in chief who wants to blame foreign cyber attacks against American assets on domestic partisans so as to avoid admitting he made a mess of things, is … suboptimal.

[The Shallow State @OurShallowState]

Every single day during the presidency of Joe Biden, the Strait of Hormuz was wide open, transporting oil, and free. Biden never asked to pay friends of his who were criminally convicted for beating cops, corrupt settlements from taxpayer funds. Biden never asked to be exempt from IRS audits for life. Biden never claimed to end wars from countries he couldn't name or pronounce, nor beg to win a prize for doing so. Biden never pushed to have monuments built for himself. Biden never photobombed other peoples' celebratory photos. Biden never asked a governing body of a sport to overturn a referee's ruling. Biden never made prime time announcements 100% filled with conspiratorial claims. Biden never inserted himself onto the name of a cultural building, nor did he put a tarp over the building when his name was ordered to be removed. And of course, Biden never paid hush money to a porn star, sent an innuendo-filled birthday card to a pedophile, and was never impeached ... convicted of felonies ... found liable for sexual abuse ... banned from running a charity ... or disgorged ... nor did he confuse an ex-wife with a woman he raped, defamed, and paid.

[Joe Scarborough @ScarboroughNow]

Bob Dylan and Billy Joel call Wichita Lineman one of the greatest songs ever written. It contains my favorite line (that @realjimmywebb says was a rushed mistake!) and a mind-blowing chord progression that sounds so natural to the ear. Genius. Still a wonder to behold.

The stunning thing about this pile-on re: Fauci by a handful of GOP senators is the total lack of interest by these supposedly outraged senators at the person who had the power at the time. Fauci gave recommendations. Trump’s the one who had all the power. Their lack of interest in Trump’s role is an obvious tell. This is manufactured nonsense.

THIS is why Bernie Moreno has been silent.

In March 2024, the AP reported that he used a work email to create a dating profile looking for gay sex.

Max Miller has some dirt on him.
