Trump tells Bret Baier "Elon's totally lost it." He's been making calls this morning, telling anchors he's not thinking about Musk and doesn't plan to speak to him any time soon. Makes his ex-ally seem like just an irritant as he tries to get his big budget bill passed

As Trump and Newsom battle it out over L.A. violence and use of federal troops, and Musk tones it down, POTUS keeps flooding the zone, including attacks on Harvard, elite law firms and the media. Why this drives the press agenda onto his preferred turf tinyurl.com/3b4c9swv

Trump doesn't flood the zone by accident. He knows he's up against a negative media onslaught - sometimes self-inflicted - but then provides unbelievable access in answering reporters' questions. The multiple war fronts also distract from damaging stories tinyurl.com/3b4c9swv

The irony is that in accusing Stephen Miller and Trump of being world-class haters, Terry Moran revealed his own hatred and bile toward them, making his firing inevitable. ABC did the only thing it could do in dumping him, given the damage to the network's credibility

My timeline has been taken over by all these famous musicians singing God Only Knows, in tribute to Brian Wilson--and the Beach Boys founder himself, in song and interviews. Paul McCartney says it's the greatest song ever written. What a stunning evolution from surfer rock. RIP
