Turns out ‘ol Biden was 100% right on those pardons. Anyone think Liz Cheney wouldn’t be under indictment right now if she weren’t carrying one?

Just wait until he hears the story of James Donald Bowman. Who came home from school one day and said that now he wants to be James David Hamel. Then he started wearing eye shadow and said he'd rather be called JD Vance. These things happen.
Trump: "We have 5 states where your child goes off to school as Tim and comes back as Tammy 3 or 4 days later. It's true. And teachers make a decision. 'Goodbye Timmy I love you so much, I'll see you later.' And you say, 'Where's my son? My son is in the hospital.' Can you imagine? They don't even need approval"

Loved joining the Politico Playbook pod to talk about how James Talarico has put himself in the position to win Texas, how @ElectTheBench is supporting rising stars like Cait Conley, and getting my start on the Buttigieg campaign.
Hosted of course by @adamwren & @playbookdc

When journalists first reported this fact, President Trump called them "treasonous scum."

This is the banality of evil. A shameless, bloodless psychopath manipulating world events for profit because his mafia family married Trump’s mafia family and he thinks it’s his birthright.
What he’s earned is a fucking prison cell for life—at best.

The happy and vivacious couple, in peaceful reverie, wondering how they can do more good for the world.
Also his forehead doesn’t move because he’s used his corrupt Saudi and Russian money to purchase the world’s worst Botox job.
Kushner: "Putin's laid out his line of what he wants to achieve. If Ukraine wanted to withdraw to that line, then obviously we have the rest of the deal set up and put together. Ukraine right now doesn't want to do that."
He's absolutely clueless! Not only does this ignore the fact that Russia invaded Ukraine and could leave at any moment, but it also parrots a classic Russian propaganda narrative: "Russia only wants Crimea... I mean, Donetsk and Luhansk... wait, Donbas, but that’s it, promise!"
See my point? We haven't just heard this before, we actually tried giving Russia land without a fight. We tried it with the exact same regime in power today, and it only led to a bigger war.
This was never about a specific piece of land. Russian invasion has always been about destroying Ukrainian statehood.
Surrendering more land won't just doom thousands of our people to a horrific death under occupation, it will guarantee an even larger war in a few years.
It's a pity that special envoys don't understand this.
Yes — and the problem runs deeper. We have a broken political dialogue, separated from what people are experiencing.
Our legacy media has ineptly addressed what Trump is (democracy-shattering) and proven pathetic in capturing the anxiety of daily voter concerns. Total failure.
Good for him. This interview was a joke. Obviously media elites have an agenda that is completely detached from the issues that people actually care about. Maybe go out and talk to real people once in while around the country - not as a journalist but as a human. nitter.gq/Acyn/status/2099148440…

He is Putin's slave. Full stop. He will go down in history as a low traitor to America and the West.

Kushner again blames Ukraine, making the case that if only Putin would be given "what he wants to achieve", "we'd have a deal" and the Trump family could finally get their hands on that cash while Ukraine is genocided.

Might be the finest magazine piece ever written @TomJunod
If you'e never read The Falling Man, you should do so. I post this on September 11th every year, and I find time to read it on this day every year. Still, in my eyes, the greatest piece of journalism I have ever read. esquire.com/news-politics/a4…
