here's Trump's full racist rant about MN's Somali community: "Somalians ripped off that state for billions. And they contribute nothing... Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage. These aren't people that work... They come from hell & do nothing but bitch. We don't want them"

if i worked in a White House with an elderly and ailing president who had a hard time staying awake, i would simply recommend against having 3 hour cabinet meetings that are boring af and pointless and best remembered for the fact said president is sleeping on camera

MUSIC FACT: when Carly Rae Jepsen sings “Curiosity will never let me go” this is a semi-veiled reference to the time she was kidnapped by a Mars rover

I really, really strongly encourage you to watch Aaron's clips of the Trump-Mamdani meeting, not just read his recaps.

This is a totally different Trump than we ever normally see. It's wild to see him like this—and Mamdani is the one who brought it out in him. There's a lesson here.
Q: would you feel comfortable living in NYC under a Mamdani administration ?

TRUMP: I would. I really would.

this is the world's most confusing day for centrist Democrats who just voted to condemn socialism and tried to sink Mamdani's campaign for months
Trump on Mamdani: "I think he's gonna surprise some conservative people, actually. And some very liberal people he won't surprise because they already like him."

So Trump's whole "punishable by death" comment is really just gonna wash away in the span of a 24 hour news cycle, huh?

We really are broken as a society.

Obviously, it's been the best scoring season of Tyrese Maxey's career, and it's not even particularly close.

But Maxey is putting up career-highs pretty much across the board. From assists, to getting to the FT line, to efficiency, and the all-in-one advanced metrics.

No big deal. Just him and Wilt.
Per Elias, Tyrese Maxey joins Wilt Chamberlain as the only two Sixers ever to go for at least 50 and 9 assists in a single game.

Good morning. Wow. 🤯
Last night, Tyrese Maxey finished with a career-high 54 points and added nine assists.

He becomes the 8th player in NBA history to score 500+ points in his team's first 15 games of a season.

A Trump supporter started murdering his way through an assassination list of Democratic law makers FIVE MONTHS AGO. He murdered my colleague Melissa Hortman, and her husband Mark — and attempted to assassinate my dear friend John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. I was also on the hit list. WTF

Raskin: "In the very presence of the victims and survivors, the Speaker said that 'now is a time we should be working on urgent legislative work.' Mr Speaker, justice is urgent legislative work. The truth is urgent legislative work. You were the one who refused to swear in Rep. Grijalva for 50 days"

"Remarkable was how quickly... Pam Bondi acquiesced to his demand..."

"That about-face... demonstrated the near-complete breakdown of the Justice Department’s traditional independence to prosecute cases based on facts and the law."

There is no rule of law left, or this would not be allowed.
