Lindsey Graham’s passing sparked conversation and controversy on *how* to talk about the departed in public. I had some thoughts that may spark some…disagreement. thepunstack.substack.com/p/w… @KenGardner11 @QuinHillyer @JohnDalyBooks @brian_mistrot @EricMGarcia @BlueBoxDave

SCOOP: Jill Buria, who’s married to Pete Hegseth chief of staff Ricky Buria, on Sunday registered to lobby the Pentagon as part of her new K Street job. After I asked her, her firm told me she will no longer work to influence the Defense Department. politico.com/newsletters/pol…

You look at how nakedly, and actually proudly, imperialist the second Trump Administration is and still say such nonsense.
Voting Blue isn’t harm reduction for the people around the world who are on the receiving end of US imperialism

Trump on Amy Acton: "If what the mother said about the daughter is half right, she has no right even running for the governor of Ohio..." KC: What about what the daughter said about the mother? TRUMP: "I don’t know what she said." KC: "That the mother remained married to her stepfather who sexually abused her when she was 12 years old." TRUMP: "When did she make that statement? Was it just recently?" KC: "Years ago. He was charged with it."

This will, ironically, make it easier for the Democrats to clean house in 2029. They can simply say that anyone who was hired this way was promoted through an illegal process, and void its outcomes as invalid ab initio. By doing this illegally, the Trumpists are effectively enabling the Democrats to identify and perfectly legally remove their appointees without having to resort to illegal partisan criteria to do so.
SCOOP: The State Dept has started asking career diplomats up for promotion if they voted for Trump in 16, 20, 24. Federal law prohibits politically based hiring for career staff. State tells @washingtonsun it's screening for "fidelity" and execution of the president's vision👇

Trump’s actions toward Russia and Ukraine have left me deeply troubled. I've discussed why in several interviews, along with broader questions about autocrats, democrats, and U.S. foreign policy. Listen to these recent podcast conversations here: michaelmcfaul.substack.com/p…

Good to see Putin already offering first pro-quo installment of Trump’s sanctions-waiver quid.
Mediaite: An AI-generated video of a man falsely accusing Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico of sexual assault was the work of a covert group in Russia. Earlier this week, a man identifying himself as Zyon Lewis posted a video on X/Twitter claiming he was assaulted by his middle school teacher in 2012. The teacher, Lewis continued, was Talarico. mediaite.com/media/news/russ…

I’m sure that Jared’s iPhone contents will get as much media coverage and commentary as Hunter Biden’s laptop.
The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

A fun moment yesterday was when my Sixers fan friends and I stopped making fun of each other and started making fun of Wemby. Sports really does bring us together
Made fun of Brunson for having a horrible opening game just for Wemby to do the same

daniel radcliffe thinks he's finished voting. unfortunately, kristen wiig's exit poll worker has decided that a quick political survey is the perfect opportunity to investigate his entire existence. what starts with a simple question about mitt romney turns into a bizarre interrogation about his age, his dating life, his appearance preferences and whether he'd like to watch a movie with her. the funniest part is how politely he keeps trying to escape. he's answered the questions, completed the survey and practically filed his emotional taxes, yet she's still holding that clipboard like it grants her unlimited access to his personal life. this isn't exit polling. it's a first date disguised as civic engagement.
