So the Knicks win 13 playoff games in a row, a historic run! Then Donald Trump shows up to their first NBA finals home game this century, falls asleep, and they promptly lose lmao.

WOW - Trump crashes out & cuts his interview w/ Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged "You're either crooked or you're stupid. I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her" "I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads

This took 4 tries by House Democrats, who have been bringing these resolutions up for months and forcing votes on them. It finally passed today -- and now it heads to the Senate, where there is also slow but growing bipartisan opposition to Trump's war. www.huffpost.com/entry/house-...

For The First Time, House Votes To End Iran War In Rebuke To Trump

Four Republicans joined Democrats in passing a war powers resolution requiring the president to get congressional approval going forward.

my fundamental takeaway from current results is that the country is very ready to tell republicans to go fuck themselves but is largely confused about how to do that

Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

It’s weird how Trump can go scorched earth on any Republican who advocated releasing the Epstein files and the media doesn’t treat it like a pretty conclusive admission of guilt.

BREAKING: I'm suing Todd Blanche and the DOJ to STOP the $1.8B slush fund. The Justice Department violated the Administrative Procedures Act when it established the fund, and it must be set aside. You can read my complaint here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-i...

BREAKING: I’m Suing Todd Blanche and the DOJ to stop the $1.8B Slush Fund

In establishing the “anti-weaponization” fund, the government failed to follow the Administrative Procedures Act (APA), so I'm suing to set the fund aside.

Louisiana House Republicans have passed a new 5-1 congressional gerrymander targeting 1 of 2 Black Dems. It packs Black voters from New Orleans to Baton Rouge in a snake-like 2nd District to make the other 5 heavily white/GOP. GOP senators already passed a similar map www.nola.com/news/politic...

Image of the Louisiana congressional map approved by state House Republicans. The map has six districts and targets one of the two seats held by black Democrats. Black Democratic voters are packed into a a 2nd District that snakes from New Orleans to Baton Rouge while the 6th District wraps around it on three sides in the latter region. The 6th would flip from majority Black and solidly Democratic to heavily white and overwhelmingly Republican.

When we have a real president again, he or she will have to waste inordinate amounts of time cleaning up the terrible mess created by this awful mistake of a human who never should have been allowed near the levers of power.
