Also and again, GOP members of Congress are, by their actions, fine with this.
Pentagon staffers will now need to get prior approval before sharing any information with Congress, according to a new memo from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and his deputy that Axios reviewed.

More than a third of the recruits at ICE's training academy are failing the personal-fitness test, @nickmiroff.bsky.social reports. “It’s pathetic,” one career ICE official told Miroff.

It's this photo if you missed it, savaging the East Wing to make a vanity ballroom.

What do I know and I'm not saying it's a magic bullet or anything like that but it sure seems to me that Dems should run hard on the Argentina bailout. Not anywhere near the worst thing Trump has done, but i suspect it's unusually clarifying.
Jeffries: "It's perplexing to us that Rs refuse to spend a dime to protect the healthcare of the American people, but somehow the Trump admin found $40b to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina in ways that are also going to continue to hurt our soybean farmers in Iowa & the Midwest"

![Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.
There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.
What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.
It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lzlqyldh7nfc34pfffvd24ko/bafkreiap6asa64jdjb2vlv4c2sdritjrntsibvsv7baj6o4cgwcfgsjeny@jpeg)

🧵The Trump regime knows that they are destroying the economy. They will never admit this in public, but they do in private.
Treasury secretary Scott Bessent was photographed reading a text from AgSec Brooke Rollins saying that Trump's tariffs made China shift soybean purchases to Argentina.

Like a lot of folks, I love starting my morning off with a cup of joe. But this National Coffee Day, I’m fired up that Trump’s personal grievances mean Americans are paying 20.9% more for their coffee than last year. No one wants that. I’m challenging Trump’s chaos.
