Yo. Democrats. Remember how Obama showed you a new way to bring hope to your base and get them to vote in droves? Here's the (new) new way. Get with the program or get out of politics (this is not a demand, but a prediction).
I am once again asking you to stop sending us money.

"Papers, please"
NEW—Earlier this evening agents from ICE/other fed agencies were outside Rhode Island Ave metro in DC asking people exiting the station for their IDs, per someone who experienced it. When the person presented their Real ID license, an agent said that wasn't sufficient. Luckily they had secondary ID.

We could have had TWO boring wonk Presidents who kept everything chugging along normally but because they were girls we hired evil old guy, befuddled old guy, then EVIL BEFUDDLED OLD GUY someone make it make sense it will never make sense.
So then Elon goes "Kill the Bill!" and Trump goes "Elon has TDS!" so Elon goes "I'm the reason Trump won!" so Trump goes "we waste billions on Elon!" so Elon goes "Epstein!" and a corpulent flunkie goes "Deport Elon!" and Elon goes "Impeach!"
And THAT'S why women are too emotional to be President.

This is extraordinary. The government punished this PhD candidate because they did not like the things that she said. The judge says she must be released immediately. Thanks very much to Anna Bower for this incredible reporting.

Trump 2028: Your Baby's Life Is Too Good
Trump on China: "They made a trillion dollars with Biden selling us stuff. Much of it we don't need. Somebody said, 'oh, the shelves are gonna be open.' Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, and maybe the two dolls will cost a couple of bucks more."

Despite seeing several people I totally trust say this was real I still felt I had to verify it with my own eyes. And having done so I still can't believe it's real.

"If you take out the impact of everything we've said and done, things are great!"
Peter Navarro on CNBC reacts to the shrinking GDP number by insisting it's actually good news because if you strip out the effect of tariffs "you have 3 percent growth. So we really like where we're at now."

I'm listening in on the Perkins Coie hearing in DDC. (I made it onto the call!) Judge Howell is just recapping where everything is at - 3 pending motions, she hasn't ruled on sections 2 and 4 previously, so she's going to focus on that.
