This is a CNBC must-watch. Josh Brown sums up Trump Admin perfectly. It’s all about Javier Milei. And (my words, not his) Elon is the puppet master. Elon is trying to Argentine-ize the U.S.

Trump says he will “fix” the reflecting pool. No sign on a healthcare fix yet though.

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell.
Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

It’s looking more and more like Trump has run a very bad set-up scam. As I said yesterday, it’s a nothing-burger, he’s just managed to spill most of it down his shirt.

The war will end when Russia stops fighting. Therefore, pressure has to be put on Russia, so that they stop believing that they will win. Why is that so hard to understand?

There will be some valid redactions. But the feeling among most of us who worked for DOJ is that Justice & the FBI have redacted all information that hurts Trump.
