“I don’t want to be just sitting there for two years vetoing everything.”
President Donald Trump picked up a call from @DashaBurns on POLITICO Elections Live and talked to us about the blue wave and how he’s willing to work with incoming congressional Democrats.

Growing up in San Diego, being a die hard Padres fan in the 2000s-2010s….
I wouldn’t have dared even dream that Petco Park would be like this someday. From barren, blue, and lifeless to pure, unfiltered ELECTRICITY in the postseason.
Pinch me.
The Lions didn’t fall off because they lost Ben Johnson
They fell off because their all-world center retired, other core linemen dipped, and their secondary became a graveyard
Just a frustrating narrative to me with all respect to how brilliant Ben is
Christopher Nolan calls out amateur movie critics for thinking spotting a movie trope means the film failed
"That's a fundamental flaw of film criticism in a way, or storytelling criticism, because to be able to identify the mechanism does not invalidate the mechanism."
"And that's a real problem in criticism today, because people have this idea that because I can understand why the story affects me, therefore it didn't work. That's not how storytelling works."
"When I was talking about film criticism, I was talking more about amateur film criticism than professional film criticism... because they feel they've identified the mechanism, they feel that it invalidates it."
"That could be true of certain elements, and film language evolves with that... but we do as filmmakers avail ourselves of that common language."
Expiring $50M Kawhi Leonard at age 35 is worth 2 first rounders, a second, and a pick swap but the Celtics are unreasonable and unethical for wanting more than 2 firsts for Jaylen in his prime lol I’m sure 👍🏾
Barack Obama has attacked his party for its unwillingness to challenge institutional obstructions to enacting its agenda.
It’s a fair criticism, but the 2009–10 retreat on a public option in Obamacare might be Exhibit A of this tendency. https://t.co/bhbgKUBay4
Joel Embiid exorcised some demons tonight. Feels similar to when LeBron first beat the Celtics as a member of the Heat. That man is gonna sleep well. He earned it.
ZOHRAN MAMDANI: "It is sad that for too many Americans when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, they have to turn to a history book."
NETANYAHU: “I spoke yesterday with JD vance — He reported to me in detail, as members of this administration do every day.”
They report to him? Remind us - Who is president of 🇺🇸 again?
CNN claims that voices on the left and right uniting on their opposition to the Iran war is deeply rooted in “antisemitism”
Utterly brain dead and shameless propaganda
🔥 @RepRoKhanna to Democratic leadership: “Get out. Let a new generation lead. You’ve been ineffective. The base doesn’t like you. The base wants fighters.”
David Faber on CNBC: "What we are not having yet is a true national conversation about the impact this technology is going to have...I would just reference page six from this industrial policy note from OpenAI, right? ‘You need to modernize the tax base as AI reshapes work in production, the composition of economic activity may shift, expanding corporate profits and capital gains while potentially reducing reliance on labor income and payroll taxes. This could erode the tax base that funds programs such as social security, Medicaid, SNAP, housing assistance...’”
Khanna on Hasan Piker: "What should the standard of the Democrats be? Should we not go on Joe Rogan? Should we just have purity tests of canceling folks? The lesson of the last election is we've gotta be out there. We've gotta engage. It's a complex, messy, multiracial democracy. I will defend my views, but the people who are saying 'don't engage' will cost us future elections."
I'd say @RoKhanna's Epstein crusade directly forcing Trump to fire his own Attorney General immediately makes Ro a top-tier 2028 contender for the Democratic presidential nomination, at least for now.
