It's still early but when we compare current earnings season (156 reports tracked in our data) to where things were at with that many reports during prior earnings seasons, this is the third-strongest EPS beat rate on record and strongest revenue beat rate. Just incredibly strong versus estimates.

Unpopular take: The ballroom is not being built by a man who doesn't intend to leave in 2028, it's being built by one who knows he's dying and he wants a 'big dick' building in DC as part of his legacy.

DOJ’s attempt at a retribution prosecution of Adam Schiff runs into problems when they find no evidence of crimes.
So they pivoted and charged Bolton instead.

Trump has pardoned billionaire crypto mogul and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao — who pled guilty to money laundering charges.

This comes after Zhao helped boost the Trump family’s crypto business.

It's just the latest example of Trump's Pay-to-Pardon Scheme.

BREAKING:

Jack Smith is requesting that Congress and the Justice Dept. let him testify in public.

In new letters to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Smith says he wants to testify "in open hearings" because of "the many mischaracterizations" around his investigations.

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Okay, I am losing it, nothing but mad as hell. Why hasn’t someone filed an Injunction to Stop the demolition and destruction of the White House East Wing. How did this even start. Don’t the repubs give a shit at all about the People’s House being destroyed? Building this obscene ballroom

ICE now has a budget bigger than most militaries around the world and has increased spending on weapons.

It's also engaging in a race to recruit 10,000 new agents who will eventually be out in American streets.

Some will be vetted, but how many unqualified recruits will fall through the cracks?

I’ve been thinking about how hard the founding fathers cooked with the Third Amendment.

Imagine being forced to house ICE. I can’t imagine they wash their hands. They’ve never done laundry in their lives. They’d break your stuff if you didn’t cut the crusts off their sandwiches.

Reporter: The president had initially said that this project wouldn't interfere with or touch the current structure.

Leavitt: If you look at the renderings, it's very clear the east wing was going to be modernized.

The East Wing is gone.

Over a century of American history, reduced to rubble.

All to appease the vanity of a corrupt authoritarian.
