Coons: "I'm alarmed by reports Trump is considering allowing Nvidia to sell China their most advanced chip. The defining fight of the 21st century will be who controls AI... it would be a tragic mistake for Trump, in order to get some soybeans out of China, to sell them these critical AI chips"

Q: How comfortable are you w/Trump seeking $230m from the DOJ?

MIKE JOHNSON: Uh, I don't know the details. I just read it. I know he believes he's owed that reimbursement. What I heard is that if receives it, he's gonna consider giving it to charity. They attack him for everything. *changes topic*

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91.

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

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

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

If Johnson has a secret plan to save the health care system the GOP is about to break, now might be the time to reveal it.
REPORTER: Congresswoman Greene specifically said that Republicans do not have a plan to deal with healthcare

MIKE JOHNSON: Congresswoman Greene does not serve on the committees of jurisdiction that deal with those specialized issues. She's probably not read in. Not everyone knows everything.

Her contempt is extraordinary.

Trump thinks he's a king. He believes he's accountable to no one. Not Congress. Not the American people.

And so when his people testify before the Senate, they act like they are bound by no rules and no laws.
DURBIN: You won't even say whether you talked to the WH about this?

BONDI: I'm not going to discuss any internal conversations with you

D: They're going to transfer TX Guard troops to the state of Illinois. What's the rationale?

B: I wish you loved Chicago as much as you hate President Trump

Trump does his best to avoid events that aren't all about him because he finds them very dull.

Amazing that anyone would expect him to sit through all those eulogies when none of them are talking about Trump.

That said, maybe he wasn't feeling up to it? The man does not look well.
He loved him like a son — and I’m sure he would have skipped his own sons’ memorials as well. Those golf balls aren’t going to hit themselves.🙄

Until we pass a nationwide ban on gerrymandering (which we need), Democrats should gerrymander every state to the fullest extent. 52-0 in CA, 17-0 in IL, and so on. No more unilateral disarmament. Time to get serious about fighting back.

Think about what the GOP is revealing with their attempt to suddenly change the Congressional maps: they know their agenda is so unpopular that they're going to lose unless something changes.

Of course, what they should be changing is their policies, not the maps.

Daily court update from Trump Admin. in Kilmar Abrego Garcia case:

This was posted this morning on Trump's "Truth Social" White House account ... after the Supreme Court ruled unanimously 9-0 to "facilitate" Garcia's return. Our courts should easily find the Trump administration in contempt.

The VP seems to have forgotten that the U.S., a founding NATO member, is already pledged to defend Denmark and Greenland, just as they are pledged to defend us.

That’s what “ally” means.
