QB Josh Allen

Third straight year it has been some combo of those three as initial selections.

a suicide note whose existence and content federal authorities appear to have concealed for years while conspiracy theories about Epstein’s death in their custody raged out of control
DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar:

"Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

No!

Most presidents do not in fact name anything after themselves while they’re in office, because they’re not toddlers who constantly need to be the center of attention.
Has any other president named this much stuff after himself?

nothing i can say about these people is crueler than their behavior toward each other
if this was me at a public event mourning my spouse who was violently murdered my kids would either have me committed or never speak to me again

if there’s one thing this administration respects, it’s the letter of the law
WELKER: Why didn't the DOJ meet the Friday deadline to release all the Epstein files?

BLANCHE: It's very simple and very clear. The statute also requires us to protect victims.

“The unemployment rate is so high because of all the people I personally fired” isn’t the home run defense he thinks it is.
Trump: "I could reduce unemployment to 2%, 1%, or practically zero by just hiring people into the federal government even though those jobs are not necessary"

"I was surprised by it" says the guy who one thousand percent demanded it
Q: What's your reaction to the Kennedy Center being renamed the Trump-Kennedy Center?

TRUMP: I was honored by it. The board is most distinguished people in the country. I was surprised by it. I was honored by it. We saved the building.

Impeach him the second you get a majority, imo. Let this guy lay it all out.
BREAKING on MS NOW:

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

I weep for future history teachers who are going to have to answer the question “wait, for real?” over and over
Per @garretthaake.bsky.social, the extremely tacky "presidential wall of fame" that lines the colonnade to the West Wing now has obviously-Trump-penned plaques insulting or praising the presidents.

This is horrible. Trump and his crew shut down USAID, which has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and they had no idea what they were doing or what would be the consequences. Completely immoral.

One of my favorite running bits is that Donald Trump over the past decade has repeatedly indicated that he believes stealth aircraft are physically invisible.

Absolutely world-class stupidity. You’ve never met someone this stupid. He’d be the stupidest person in any room you’ve ever been in.
Trump: "The only time anybody could see those planes was when those bomb chutes open up, because it becomes totally un-stealth. You're going in, you go like this. As soon as it goes like this, for some reason the plane is totally visible. Not good. I watched it happening. I watched it go bing bing"
