The New York Times reports Jonathan Braun—a violent felon with ties to Jared Kushner, whose sentence Trump commuted—has been sent back to prison after new charges, including assaulting a 3-year-old. In court, he ranted about his lawyer and flipped off spectators. His fifth arrest.

WELKER: Do you and President Trump trust the US intelligence community and its assessments?

JD VANCE: Of course we trust our intelligence community, but we also trust our instincts
"The dynamic of states working to limit the leverage of foreign powers ...ultimately favors electricity taking market share ...at the expense of fossil fuels...The end result of Trump’s dominance-plus-deglobalization agenda is a pathway...toward decarbonization..."
