State Dept. Spokesperson now refuting GOP and Dem senators’ account of their joint briefing from Rubio - and claiming the 28 point plan IS authored by the US.
Hard to believe several senators would have fundamentally misunderstood what Rubio told them.
Breathtakingly dysfunctional government.

TRUMP: “That’s ok, you can just say yes.”
ZOHRAN: “Ok. Yes.”

The weird thing is with Donald Trump just said about Zohran Mandani is what every Democrat should’ve said about Zohran Mamdani the moment he secured the Democratic nomination.

It was a dark and stormy night.
Robert lay beside me to my right, the bear carcass beside him to his right.
“Vaccines, amirite” I heard him mutter in his sleep.
I climaxed silently but with great satisfaction.

For years, there was a "Bad Hemingway Contest," in which readers would parody Ernest's writing, w/ hilarious results..
That Nuzzi excerpt, with lines like these, ought to generate a contest of its own.

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

I’m surprised he didn’t tuck in “San Francisco values” and “welfare queens“ into that conservative mad lib.
In an unhinged dissent in our Texas redistricting victory, a GOP appointed judge seems to believe that George Soros and I did...well, I'm not sure what...but he is very mad. Bigly.

Republicans don’t understand that being in the majority means always governing
Democrats don’t understand that being in the minority means always campaigning

A friend of mine explained why some Democratic voters find Democratic elected officials so grating these days and why Republicans step on every rake: “Republicans don’t know how to be in the majority and Democrats don’t know how to be in the minority.”

Hot take: “the usual suspects“ doesn’t age well because in 1995, it was impossible for audiences to believe that an enfeebled dimwit could be the head of a criminal enterprise.

Regular reminder for folks reporting on federal courts that there are two different Judges Ho (Dale / SDNY, James / 5th Cir), with two different judicial philosophies. Remember it this way:
When your Judge Ho is Dale, your claims might not fail.
When your Judge Ho is Jim, your chances are grim.

Former mayoral aide Mohamed Bahi just got 3 years' probation for organizing straw donations for Eric Adams
Judge Ho called the tossed corruption case against the mayor the “elephant in the room”
“It is hard to escape the impression that Mr. Bahi is left here holding the bag”

You can think it’s good that Massie and MTG are stirring up shit within the GOP caucus without thinking their politics in general is good. It’s not hard at all in fact?

1. Scandal politics win elections pretty often.
2. THIS scandal divides the GOP more than affordability or really anything.
3. If Dems want to win the fight (pry the files loose, rather than give up after Trump says no) they need to make a referendum out of it. www.offmessage.net/p/force-a-re...

The scale at which the President is profiting from his post is staggering. Perhaps past presidents and their self-dealing snuck out with a million or so — a briefcase full of cash. This time, it's billions, which you should visualize as a fleet of school buses filled with Benjamin Franklins.
