Charles Barkley risked getting fired on CBS last night, calling out Trump for attacking immigrants: “The way some of these immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace. What we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants is really unfortunate and really sad.”
CNN's Anderson Cooper responds to President Trump's repeated insults aimed at California Governor Gavin Newsom's childhood dyslexia, talking about his own challenges as a child who once struggled to read.
When I joined @postlocal in 2020, we had a staff of between 80 and 90 people. Now, we’re hovering at about 40. And yet, we still break news of national/int’l import. We hold power accountable. Our work changes lives.

@MarkZuckerman@Nats_Chat@AlGaldi@tshovers Mark, I have followed you for a long time and really appreciate your work. I also hope you get to continue with the Nationals. I’m excited to hear you’ll still be with Nat’s chat.
Adding your name to a memorial already named in honor of a great man doesn’t make you a great man. Quite the contrary. Putting your name on top of someone else’s doesn’t mean that people will speak of you in the same breath as the other man. Putting your name above another man’s name on his existing memorial… What is that about? Truly? What’s that about? Do you want people to speak the names as one? Dig down deep. What are you trying to say? I’m really interested. There is no other president who would do this. None. Zero. In fact, it’s not even legal. Congress named the performing arts center as a living memorial in 1964, and only congress can change that law.
This will always be the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Art. A great man would have said to his hand picked board, “Thank you, but the building already has its name. Let it stand. Let it be. I don’t need that.” But then again…
James Wood is the first player to be intentionally walked three times in a game this season, and the first National since Bryce Harper in 2016, per @NationalsComms.
