Bad service from @SouthwestAir today. Get text at 8am that my connection home from Cancun has been canceled. I was told there was nothing they could do to reroute me, I booked a flight myself to Louisville and had to rent a car to drive home. No refund, no help at all. Awful.

President Trump focused on election security, as he continues to insist — falsely — that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from him during his address from the White House on Thursday. In his speech, the president said there are "catastrophic vulnerabilities" in U.S. elections. @MajorCBS weighs in on the president's rhetoric.

"We've had primary elections all this year. We're going to have more in August. Those primary elections have been conducted under this system that the president said is catastrophically vulnerable. Yet he and all Republicans and Democrats have accepted the elections, the results of those primaries."

@NoahKahan It was a hot night in Cincy, but thank you for putting on a phenomenal show! #thegreatdividetour

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The irony of Republicans controlling all branches of government while

bankrupting the country, starting a war, sending money to fraudulent programs, violating the Constitution, giving corporations immunity...

but arguing that the biggest problem we have is “stolen elections.”

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Dear Chris,

I can start by telling you who my audience is not.

It is NOT you.

It is NOT the pundit class that rarely leaves the safety of its Georgetown cocktail parties.

It is NOT the chattering class who gets paid to pretend it knows the mind of the American people.

It is NOT for anyone who looks at everything through the lens of politics.

The people I am talking to are tired of the bullshit.

The people I want to speak with are the 50 million Americans still sick and suffering. The families fighting for the lives of the those they love.

Whether they are people living in the shame and fear of being canceled, or consumed by grief after the loss of someone they love, they are just looking for a slight glimmer of hope that they too can get back up again.

My audience is the people who feel unheard, unseen, and uninvited, just like me.

My audience also includes my perceived enemies, those pitted against me by you and your colleagues in the media. I want to meet them where they are and help build a bridge. A bridge built of that which connects all of us. That’s where we begin to actually heal.

And it’s not as if my intent is difficult to understand or discern. Just read and listen to what I have said on this platform, and the 18+ hours of unscripted pod casts I have done.

I think your shock as to why anyone would care says far more about you than it does about me. Take a look at the comments to your post.

And I also know this: people are tired of the bullshit. They’re tired of you and the chattering classes’ obsession with my family as Rome burns.

So instead of wondering why people care about what I have to say, Chris, maybe you should concern yourself with why no one cares anymore about what you and everyone you represent has to say.

COMMENTARY: Let’s say it plainly: There has never been a president as corrupt as Donald Trump.

There is no close second in our history.

I've never wanted a particular Republican to win a primary election as much as I want Massie to win tomorrow.

Until my final breath I will never understand how January 6th wasn't an instant dealbreaker for every single American voter

James Talarico: “Young people can’t afford to buy a home, but Jeff Bezos has 12. Young people can’t afford to fill up their gas tank, but Mark Zuckerberg is launching helicopters from his mega-yacht. Young people pay more than their fair share of income taxes, but someone like Elon Musk can get away without paying a penny”

[FireFighterDev @fire_starter457]

I’m going to be honest, the last 4 times I’ve filled up my gas tank, I thought about many things. None of those things were sharing a bathroom with a trans person, a mom buying soda with her SNAP or whether the guy in front of me in line was documented.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace

@zachlanebryan @gotolouisville It was an amazing concert! Thank you for a great show!

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.

This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Trump's recklessness is needlessly putting our brave service members in harm's way, destroying America's global standing, and making life even more unaffordable for the American people.

We must all stand against this and oppose funding this illegal war of choice.
