NEW: Antwerp's Diamond Industry claims a massive ring Trump received was not a "bribe."

It's own words say otherwise.

57% say the economy is getting worse under direct control of Republicans.

If you feel the same, you're not alone. Share this if you're planning on getting out to vote in November to end this downward spiral.

The Trump administration just told Arkansas it won't renew a 13-year-old Medicaid waiver, putting health coverage for 200,000 low-income people at risk. It's using an arcane new 'budget neutrality' rule that a Boston University law professor calls 'a sneaky way to cut Medicaid.' Georgia and California have waivers expiring the same day. This is how you shrink a program without ever having to say you're cutting it. https://t.co/GSJUPv2ZLs

So revealing.

The Speaker of the House saying he (thus the House, thus Congress) has “nothing to do with” a war the U.S. is fighting.

The complete self-gelding of Congress in one sentence.

"Eggs expensive under Biden" was a story for six months. "Trump made everything expensive on purpose" is apparently just a Trump personality quirk we're all supposed to get used to.

Here is why Army Secretary Dan Driscoll resigned:

“Driscoll brought up concerns with the administration surrounding Army transformation and readiness and Hegseth's blocking those efforts specifically by firing the Generals who were responsible,” according to a source familiar with Driscoll’s decision.

[Olivia of Troye @OliviaTroye]

This year alone, Hegseth has fired the Army Chief of Staff & several generals, fired Sec Navy & now Army Secretary, Dan Driscoll has resigned...six months into a war with Iran that has no end in sight.
That's not a Pentagon. It's a revolving door with a flag on it.

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice asked an appellate court to revoke the temporary restraining order issued by a federal judge preventing the U.S. Postal Service from implementing President Donald Trump’s anti-mail voting executive order. https://t.co/12T2PTM77h

Corporate America cut big checks to Trump. Now CEOs fear Democratic subpoenas are coming.

Tech firms are hiring advisers to prepare for potential investigations if Republicans lose control of the House in November.

A legal watchdog says it filed bar complaints accusing U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro and two lieutenants of violating their ethical duties in seeking to charge six Democratic lawmakers with federal crimes for appearing in that video that called on troops to resist unlawful orders.

WaPo Exclusive: Trump has claimed that the White House needs a massive new ballroom because it would provide him and future presidents with a secure, hardened facility. But former officials say the argument fails to acknowledge that the presidential complex already has one. https://t.co/ORD2u1cJM4

This is really outrageous. Not only did a judge find probable cause to believe that sensitive national defense documents would be found at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, the documents were actually found!

EXCLUSIVE: Ten years ago, David Michael Levin was convicted of hacking into government election websites.

Now, he appears to have been hired by the Trump DOJ to...wait for it...monitor elections. https://t.co/a4x0e6oM3L

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Maggie Haberman says foreign leaders use Natalie Harp as a backchannel to Trump when official routes fail.

Trump reportedly says she loves him as much as his wife and children and “will never leave.”

This is not merely strange. It is a national security vulnerability.
