KEILAR: Can you square for us the president pardoning the former Honduran president who was convicted of helping traffic drugs toward the US with Trump's objective of fighting the scourge of drugs?

The Trump administration effectively says that no one should ever work with Americans during wartime; that our promises mean nothing, our word is dust, and we will throw our allies under the bus the moment we want.

In any future armed conflict, who would ever trust us again?

When Border Patrol showed up across Charlotte, parents and neighbors rushed to Berryhill to meet kids at the bus stop. They stood watch, linked arms, and made one thing clear: if the city gets targeted, its children will not face it alone.
This is what community looks like.💙

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.

Wow.

I do in fact need to point out Trump’s breathtaking misogyny. Yes it’s to be expected from a serial abuser of women. Yes it’s what we fully expect from our Abuser-in-Chief.

But ceasing to call it out is its own form of normalization and acceptance.

So you better believe I’m gonna call it out.
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'
