"Right after they say the economy is awesome, the next jobs report is pretty devastating... [and] he can't even blame some 'woke BLS administrator' because he got rid of that person."

Neera Tanden and Tim Miller discuss Trump's jobs problem and the trap his admin. is falling into.

Trump’s “Warflation” Has Just Begun If he were trying to increase prices on purpose, would he be doing anything differently?

When economists say the president can't really do much to change prices, what they mean is he can't do much to *lower* prices. ICYMI @crampell.bsky.social: lnk.thebulwark.com/4repfy4

‘The Bride!’ Review Every slugger will tell you: Big swings usually lead to big misses.

"Spectacularly ill-conceived from start to finish and stuffed to the gills with lots of Big Choices from stars Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale while having only the loosest grasp of the ideas it is playing with." @sonnybunch.bsky.social reviews "The Bride!": lnk.thebulwark.com/4d5q6O8

"That's essentially not a high bar when you're talking about nation states bombing each other... We were at war the moment we started dropping bombs on Iran."

@tessbridgeman.bsky.social explains to @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social why it's legally accurate to call what's happening in Iran a war.

Trump has privately shown serious interest in U.S. ground troops in Iran The president’s private comments have not focused on a large-scale ground invasion of Iran, but rather on the idea of a small contingent of U.S. troops that would be used for specific strategic purpos...

Could there ever be a more spiteful, cruel, sadistic, immoral, despicable man in the world?

I know many of you remember this story.

This is baby Nazar, six months old. A Russian strike killed his mom, Tetiana (she was pregnant with Nazar), and injured his dad, Vadym.

Nazar is recovering, cared for by his aunt. He will never know his mom.

We NEVER have money for universal health care but ALWAYS have money for forever wars.

Nothing says “LOVE FOR OUR TROOPS” like seeing the orange felon wearing one of his trashy propaganda MAGA baseball caps during the dignified transfer of the 6 soldiers that he and his regime murdered senselessly. Disrespectful and disgraceful but in no way surprising.

Yes they do

Q: "Did the U.S. bomb a girls' elementary school…and kill 175 people?"

Trump: "No. In my opinion, based on what I've seen, that was done by Iran."

Q: "Is that true, Mr. Hegseth? It was Iran that did that?"

Hegseth: "We're investigating it."

Trump: "It was done by Iran."

Reminds me of what Trump said in 2017 when asked about whether Putin was a “killer”.

Trump responded: "There are a lot of killers. We've got a lot of killers. What do you think? Our country's so innocent?"

He was making excuses for Putin then. He’s making excuses for Putin now.

Maximum Dutch still life. Every type of flower, fruit, mammoth shells, ruins, classical palace... Balthasar van der Ast, what were you on when you painted this?

As many have observed:

Trump is strong with the weak, and weak with the strong.

He perceives Putin as strong (incorrectly in my view). So…
