Preview of the new season of “This Old House starring Donald Trump”
Trump appears hurt by Obama's Cheesecake Factory joke: I've taken care of the White House. I have fixed it with the finest artisans in the world. The exterior plaster was broken, cracked. And the painting was terrible. I've re-skinned the building beautifully. The White House is beautiful.

“You call it corruption, we call it experience”. How about we just call it experienced at corruption?
Fucking bloody schmucks

The widening policy gap between Congress and the White House is the only clear thing.
WELKER: Trump said he finds Zelenskyy more difficult to deal with than Putin. He struck an oil deal with Putin. Do you think with these moves the president is siding with Putin? LANKFORD: No. It's pretty clear he's siding with Ukraine. WELKER: Ukraine doesn't feel that way LANKFORD: He's trying to get both sides to the table

Corruption has a way of getting exposed. I'm surprised it took this long, but better late than never. Seems pretty simple: vote Republican, and government corruption will persist and likely get worse.
Donald Trump set another record. There’s NEVER been an election (since polling began in the United States) where voters said “corruption” was their top worry. Until now.

I don’t believe the volume of diesel Russia will export will affect the price. Moreover, we see that they can export from 300,000 to 500,000 tons a month today. Meanwhile, global consumption stands at 120 million tons a month. What kind of impact can that have? I don’t think it would have any. If some people think otherwise, so be it. So I believe there are entirely different reasons behind these actions. If this is the approach, then why isn’t America making a “diesel deal” with Ukraine? Let Ukraine propose a “diesel deal.” We do have influence over whether these ships can sail or not, whether these refineries can operate or not. If that’s the case, then let’s do it. Electricity is what matters to us. That’s clear. If we can be guaranteed protection for our power system, then we will not strike Russia’s diesel infrastructure in response. Electricity is first and foremost about helping people – keeping their lights on. It also means helping Europe. Everyone knows that we are connected to the European power grid. And if our energy infrastructure is not being destroyed, we can help some countries that are facing shortages by supplying them with cheaper electricity. So, yes, let’s sign a corresponding “diesel deal” with the President of the United States. From remarks at the Warsaw Security Forum. (1)

"Proof of spine"
James Talarico just BRUTALLY TORCHED Ken Paxton while his MAGA lackeys try to spread conspiracy theories to cover for the fact that Paxton is TOO COWARDLY to debate: “I’ve heard credible reports that Ken Paxton has a serious medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice. He asked for proof of life from me. I’m asking for PROOF OF SPINE from him.”

Jeopardy daily double: What is quid pro quo?
It's genuinely amazing how little he tries to hide his mob-boss leadership style. "I pardoned Democrat Henry Cuellar, but he refused to become a Republican to pay his debt to me. Very disloyal, vote him out!"

It would be magical if you could use these posts to pay for your gas, diesel, or heating oil.
Just so there is no confusion: Hormuz transits are both back to 100% of normal and Iran is shipping 0 of its normal 2mmb/d of crude and product exports. This admin truly working magic.

You are in deep trouble when the last guy on the bench is Newt Gingrich, and he needs to throw a Hail Mary pass like this. Newt is on his 3rd marriage, so it makes sense that he supports Paxton, who is also an admitted adulterer. God must be laughing at this plan.
Does Newt Gingrich actually believe God has male reproductive organs or a Y chromosome? Assuming he doesn't (because that would be insane), what does it mean to say God is a man?

Why wasn't a U.S. company the JV partner? What purpose is served by using a 3rd party with no prior experience in the LNG business?

Doubling down on the war for the rest of the term?
JD Vance: "I empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents" (2025)

Translation: "Dithering mode"
BREAKING: President Trump told Fox News Chief Foreign Correspondent @TreyYingst that he is in a “deciding mode” and "very big things" are going to happen in the near future regarding the US-Iran war. Trump said, "My question is, if and when do I blow the entire nation up? They better behave." Trump also said he's "open" to meeting with Iran's president after Tehran sent a list of war-ending demands. | @foxandfriends Stay up to date with the latest headlines and breaking news — download the FOX News app: foxnews.onelink.me/xLDS/z2jy…

Hasset: "Polls harm impressions about the economy" Doocy: "No far-left media here, Kevin" Trump has bragged about his polls since he first ran for President. It was like a war cry to say he was leading in the polls. Now polls are wrong and causing harm because they are negative on the very issues he ran on.
Doocy: Only 23% of voters think the economy is excellent or good Trump economic adviser Kevin Hassett: They poll way too many Democrats.

Just what we need: an AI branding exercise. I wonder what the licensing fee would be for this new brand of intelligence? Next up, rebranding the war with Iran. A: From Russia with Love B: Oops, I did it again C: Iran, so far away
BREAKING: President Trump says the term "Artificial Intelligence" should be renamed to either: 1. Superior Intelligence (SI) 2. Extreme Intelligence (EI) 3. Supreme Intelligence (SI) President Trump launches a poll to select a new name.

Nothing strengthens the bond market more than an influencer-turned-boxer. In his next stunt, Jake will bend the yield curve.
Great to welcome @jakepaul to the Treasury Department today. Jake’s path from content creator to entrepreneur and professional boxer is a distinctly American story. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Beware the gambler who won big and is playing with house money.
Trump chose Kevin Warsh to cut rates and then immediately started a new Middle East war, forcing him to hike rates even higher. Sacrificed his entire domestic agenda for a failed war in Iran with Israel.

If Republicans win both the House and the Senate, Trump has promised to pay you $5000. The odds of that happening are about 1 in 6. If you think he will keep the promise, the expected value is ~ $750. If you think he won't keep the promise, then it is probably worth less than one tank of gas. It cost me $105 to fill my MDX two days ago.

I am not suggesting this should happen, but somebody with a Sharpie is going to realize how easily South, Central, and North America could be changed to "America".

Our plan would have worked "if it hadn't been for the war between Russia and Ukraine, which had been ongoing for the past 4.5 years, 12.5 years since annexing Crimea." That is some weak tea.
CHRIS WRIGHT: The diesel situation has been challenging because Russian refineries have suffered significant damage BRENNAN: Well, you could also say Russian shouldn't have invaded Ukraine and then they'd still be able to export
