Cool story, but Tim Burchett was not on Fox & Friends today. The show played a short clip of a previous Fox hit Burchett did and a confused Trump apparently thought it was live. (1/2)

Lisa McClain refuses to unequivocally condemn threats of violence against Democratic members of Congress who Trump said should be put to death, and says, "there are consequences. You can have freedom of speech, but freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences."

Um, what's a better time to talk about the Holocaust, lady?
BLITZER: During WW2, Nazi officers were following the chain of command, obeying illegal orders & slaughtered Jews during the Holocaust
McCLAIN: We're a long way from Nuremberg trials & the slaughtering of Jews. If you want to talk about the slaughtering the Jews we can have that convo another time

Reposting this clip of Harry Enten talking about inflation to make clear that the numbers he cites comes from a poll about how Americans *feel* prices are going up, not percentages of prices increases themselves. It's still not good news for Trump politically.

Those of us familiar with Justice Robert Jackson's concurrence in Youngstown Steel certainly recall the "Because He Has Proven He Can Protect America" test on the limits of executive power when acting beyond congressional authorization.
Lutnick on the tariffs case before SCOTUS: "You're gonna watch the Supreme Court back this president because this president has proven that he can protect America. We're gonna win this case. You heard it from me."

Trump is a bad actor.
Trump is an algorithm.
The President is a fake account. He is pretending to be America First, but his true mission is to do the bidding of other countries. To destroy us from the inside.

Happy Monday! It's a new week! We had a quiet sunrise today but even more notable was the complete absence of waves – it looked more like a pond than an ocean. Tap and turn horizontal for full size and stereo. I hope you have a great day!

Republicans across the country are in a bind of Trump’s making: After voting to end the 43-day federal shutdown, they have yet to articulate a plan to tackle the upcoming spike in health care premiums.
That’s coming into sharp relief in Georgia, a state with an especially high reliance on the ACA.

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀
