Today’s press pool photo shows Trump leaving the White House this morning. I enhanced the image. And seriously, can an expert explain what the hell is happening to his forehead? Right above his nose and right brow.

So undignified. As he turns the whole property into maralago, does it mean he’s planning on staying until he dies there?

This makes a ton of sense of Michael Wolff’s explanations of Trump’s action and his connection to Epstein and the Russians. open.substack.com/pub/deanblun...
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
Where did I put my time machine? I need to go back to middle school and read this back to myself about 1000 times.

Nice to see other countries show our regime what it means to do what’s right.
We are in full fascism. open.substack.com/pub/thejackh...
A high profile conservative lawyer (and the ex-husband of former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway) is calling Donald Trump’s political strategy what it is: “authoritarianism.” “We have never seen anything like this in America." trib.al/pEOjXko

Insane. We are North Korea.
Dear Puritanical Pixie: Every country on Earth struggles with the human heart. And mental health. But none, however, has mass shooting like the United States. It's the guns, you irresponsible bearer of false witness. Sincerely, Jesus
Check out her accounting of all the kleptocracy in this regime. Republicans who voted for the Big Beautiful Bill—which provides billions of dollars in giveaways to oil and gas companies—have received $105 million in campaign donations from those same firms. open.substack.com/pub/anneappl...
Worth listening to. Also interesting that trump doesn’t threaten Wolff with lawsuits because he knows Wolff has the goods on him. youtu.be/J6aDd40076U?...
CDC leaders on why the left: “I resigned because I could not be part of the weaponization of public health and CDC… we should always be questioning - but you shouldn’t have a preconceived idea before you have the data.”
Wow. What a mess.
RFK jr, a man with a laundry list of behavioral problems is running the HHS (including the CDC, NIH, FDA, CMS). If he wants to personally have cult-beliefs, that's on him – but we must not allow him to project his own pathological beliefs onto 345 million people of this country. This is not science.
Insanity. Pure insanity and desire to show he’s tough using the power of the federal government. A little boy with adult toys.
Just months short of the nation’s 250th birthday, Trump is close to batting a thousand at speed-running the very abuses of power that led the Founders to write the Declaration of Independence in the first place.
The President of Grift
This is so clearly wrong — and it helps explain why Trump’s approval numbers are in the toilet. Anyone who thinks this young woman deserved to be treated this way can go fuck themselves.
This regime is the most corrupt and anti-American that I’ve seen in my lifetime. We’re witnessing this country become a rogue nation. A pariah to the civilized world. open.substack.com/pub/deanblun...
What happened at the CDC yesterday was yet another sign that Donald Trump is not governing—he is waging war on the American government itself. Yesterday's Triad was dark. Today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social is...darker? www.thebulwark.com/p/the-cdc-th...
If Trump succeeds at firing Lisa Cook and replacing her with a loyalist, he could be just months away from a full-blown takeover of the Federal Reserve, Rogé Karma argues:
After Wednesday’s mass shooting, Fox News host Sean Hannity proposed a “simple” solution that, in reality, would have done nothing to prevent the tragedy earlier that day. "Every school in the country should have a metal detector." trib.al/RGcdO8A
So did Epstein know Trump was laundering money for a Russian oligarch, threatened Trump, which caused Trump to turn him to the FBI in Trump 1.0? youtube.com/watch?v=JTz6...

"'Trump’s rhetoric is incredibly damaging to tourism,' one D.C. restaurant owner said, asking for anonymity to speak candidly. 'People are too scared to put out numbers, but the tourism industry in D.C. is hurting.'" www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-is-s...

President Donald Trump's efforts to rename the Department of Defense reveal a "bedrock view" of the administration, according to one analyst.
Trump would rather we kick and scream over deploying the National Guard vs talk about the Jeffrey Epstein files or his falling approval ratings. He’s playing games with the National Guard and distracting his supporters while doing so.

In a stunning moment on Fox News, Trey Gowdy reacted to the Minneapolis school shooting and said maybe keeping kids safe is more important than access to guns. trib.al/ze9O6DN “The only way to stop it is to identify the shooter ahead of time or keep the weapons out of their hands.”
In an hour or two...the latest JHN newsletter drops. Inside: the man you’re not watching....the architect of Project 2025...the Shadow President Stephen Miller. If you’ve been focused on Trump...you’ve missed the real danger.
The overall goal here is clear: Trump wants full control of the U.S. economy. That’s reckless no matter who the president is. But it’s a ruinous mission for a president who obviously has no idea what he’s doing. trib.al/1edFbZq

Trump: I don't want to be a dictator, but many people are saying...but I don't want to be a dictator, "not that I don't have the right to do anything I want to do, I'm the president of the United States." Nixonian doesn't even capture it. @timmiller.bsky.social and @samsteindc.bsky.social:
Imagine if Obama said it.
A reporter breaks down on air.
They leave their families and jobs in their red states, travel to DC to live in subpar situations and then are forced to pick up trash as part of trumps conquering army. I wonder what they’re thinking.
Brilliant.
We were warned. Revenge and retribution.
Oh. I’m sure that won’t be a problem for any of us. Am I right?
Oh, so that’s the problem. He doesn’t know what capitalism is.
Trump to the USA: There is no rule of law.
What a sad person this is. He only knows allegiance to the orange god king and does not have to know anything about civics or government. What a tragedy this is.

What a suck up
Of course? Dear Sir is the best and most in any category since history began to be recorded. How could anyone not see this?
Hmmm…seems like ignorance of his job and ignorance of context (3 branches with mural accountability). Seems like he lacks self-awareness adjacent to extreme narcissism. Then there’s the previous felony convictions. So if you become president, you can ignore all the laws that once convicted you?
Anything
You can check out @revealnews.org's full interview with Smith here:
“I’m watching the military becoming co-opted by politicians, and where that leads is some really troubling places. If that happens, the roots of our democracy are in extreme danger.” -Retired Brigadier General Greg Smith, who spent 35 years in the Army National Guard. tinyurl.com/2sburkxa
One of the more depressing features of the past decade has been seeing how quickly and easily the right abandoned the genuinely good principles it once pretended to care about. Free trade; federalism; free speech. They jettissoned everything they had a point about & kept all the loathesome bits.
Of course he wants to distract from all his illegal and immoral activities.

As usual, they create an action that violates the law, wait for a lawsuit, then ignore the court order. They have no morality or core values other than their own violence, cruelty, lawlessness and depravity.

Something appears seriously wrong with Trump's health. Imagine if Biden had these large contusions on him. It's time for the man who will be the oldest president in history to be removed from office.
Lunacy meets fantasy. These people are so untethered from reality.
Fascism is fully here in America.
It screams of insecurity by everyone in the room. The sycophants praise him in the hope that he in turn might validate them. It’s tragic to see adults who function out of such a low sense of self-awareness and self-differentiation. They impact the rest of us negatively.
Trump is launching purges of supposed “deep state actors” in the U.S. intelligence community who turn out to be, on closer examination, skilled and dedicated public servants. This is raising the risk of a politicized intelligence process leading to costly intelligence failures. wapo.st/4mHZMvB
Seeking petty revenge by threatening to re-investigate a notorious revenge plot? Trump's revenge tour is careening toward its logical extreme, wherein retribution covers every inch of his presidency, no matter the irony.
Wow.
