Wow. After voting to eliminate all community projects for the year, Mike Lawler didn’t even have the courage to tell the Rockland County sheriff in #NY17 that his department wouldn’t receive the $7.1 million in promised funding.

Excellent idea

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The entire goal here is to impress Trump with a fancy-looking document that he likes, not to produce sensible economic policy, so any formula that is sufficiently complicated to impress him (e.g., contains two steps) and produces a big list of different numbers will do

Trump really believes issuing tariffs on Sri Lanka and a bunch of penguins is going to pay our deficit, eliminate income taxes, and make us rich. It’s not a joke, it’s not a troll, it’s not a strategy.

"You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr. Beal, and you must atone!"

Watters: What kind of manufacturing are you talking about returning here? Lutnick: What's going to happen is robotics are going to replace the cheap labor…

WOW. CBP's internal affairs department determined that a Chinese woman arrested by Border Patrol for visa overstay hung herself in a cell and was not found for two hours, even though written records reported multiple welfare checks (a suggestion the records were falsified?).

Two different readouts on X

If the US and China just suddenly decided to stop trading with each other tomorrow, which country would be in the most trouble?

Wanting to negotiate is just normal and, in fact, must be expected of our leaders. It’s not having respect for those you are negotiating with that will likely end up harming your people’s interests. Know and study well how your rival will act before you even make a move.

And believe me I understand your frustration with *gestures wildly* all of this. But here's the thing - that email or call or conversation you think you won't do because it will just go into some void - some of these folks are listening. They're waiting for it.

The so-called "GOP moderates" like Rep. Don Bacon 🇺🇸✈️🏍️⭐️🎖️ are waiting to do anything substantial about Trump's abuses until after they cut Medicaid, assuming they want to do anything about Trump's abuses at all.

Trump personally killed a bipartisan border and immigration deal that Democrats and Republicans negotiated in the Senate last year. That should be mentioned every single time we talk about immigration in this country.

John Ewing is the next mayor of Omaha. That's really good news.

He's going to retire and take some cushy board position for a military contractor.

Don Bacon is like a mechanic who keeps saying, "there's your problem," usually to a camera, but refuses to fix your car. He wants to get paid, too.

Someone call Pete Ricketts. He knows how to smuggle drugs. reuters.com/sustainability…
