"Posterity! You will never know, how much it cost the present Generation, to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make a good Use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it." -- John Adams, April 1777

@allenanalysis Don't forget that Trump's unintelligent intelligence director Pulte is not on board yet to make sure reports like that never see the light of day. Right now Trump Is doing everything he can to douse the final flames out of that office.

New York City just had its safest first 5 months of a year in recorded history.

Murders plunged 21%, and major crime overall is down 11%.

Rep. McCaul was one of 18 Republicans who voted for Ukraine Support Act in the House, defying GOP leadership. "This is the time to standup", he tells me. "And I wish my own party could put the bill on the floor"

HUGE: Kennedy Center lawyers have instructed staff to begin removing Trump’s name from everything.

This is a direct result of Rep. Joyce Beatty’s successful lawsuit to block Trump’s attempt to rename the Kennedy Center.

@MakeBarcaGreat @KalshiPolitics It's always a "rig" to MAGAts when their candidate is on the losing side. 😎

Tonight, the House faced a Churchill vs. Chamberlain moment. Stand on the side of freedom and democracy, or show weakness to an invading thug who wants to restore Russian domination over a free people.

Tonight, we chose Churchill.

We knew this was coming, right? 😬 Scientists at Columbia University have edited the DNA of early human embryos with unprecedented accuracy, an achievement that could open the way to babies engineered with particular characteristics. https://t.co/jM2qJmbe9K

NEW: A stunning new project from @lawfare's Katherine Pompilio finds that 97 Jan. 6ers who received clemency for their role in the Capitol riot then got arrested, charged, and/or convicted with subsequent crimes—a number much higher than previously reported.

🚨 The House just voted 218-204 to move forward on the discharge petition to provide military aid to Ukraine and impose tough sanctions on Russia. The House will vote on final passage tomorrow. This is our Churchill moment and we must pass the test.

Trump's war is turning into a first class joke and it would actually be funny if there weren't soldiers of ours already killed in it. Iranian flagged oil tankers bound for China sailing right past US ships in the Strait of Hormuz...just 😒

[The Hormuz Letter @HormuzLetter]

BREAKING: Multiple Iranian-flagged oil tankers carrying 7 million barrels of oil to China successfully broke through the US blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, the first breach since April 17, per Kpler.

@Tom88206311 @davidaxelrod Okay, so I see you're another conspiracy theorist. Well, have a nice day anyway. And just keep in mind that the fact is there are way more registered Democrats than Republicans in the state of California. Nothing's rigged, we just got more voters than you. 😎

[Dana @outbeyond]

@Tom88206311 @davidaxelrod Not sure what that even means, but it's straight up Trumpian to call an election rigged when your candidate loses.

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

So, the slush fund was just a fringe benefit. What Trump really cares about is the “almost as good as a pardon” deal he gave himself via the IRS. Explained here: https://t.co/tTiMtlkCu7

Pay attention to Russia’s expanding missile attacks on Ukraine and how they are deliberately timed to cutbacks in U.S. air defense support.

As Roland Garros rolls on with new great players, those of us who watched the greatest Roland Garros player of them all give a fond nod to now-retired Rafa Nadal...

[Bastien Fachan @BastienFachan]

Happy 40th birthday to Rafael Nadal, the man who 'played every point like that'

Congressional statute:

"There is a Director of National Intelligence who shall be appointed by the President ... Any individual nominated for appointment as Director of National Intelligence shall have extensive national security expertise."

@Tom88206311 @davidaxelrod A classic loser response. 😎

Putin has done more than anyone to expand NATO and the EU. He can be proud.
