If you run the madman theory but have no theory, you’re just left with a madman. Trump’s unpredictability has no strategy behind it. Now, the key objective of the Iran War negotiations is to solve a problem created by the war itself: reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

This is what happens when you try to speed-run Project 2025 with incompetent loyalists. When you replace expertise with thoughtless sycophancy, you get failure. Trump is surrounded by enablers of his worst impulses so he’s overreaching before he’s fully consolidated power.

Tulsi Gabbard said Iran's nuclear enrichment program was obliterated in the June strikes and there was no effort to rebuild it. That directly contradicts Trump's justification for this war. This is like if the top intel official revealed there were no WMDs three weeks into the Iraq War.

Trump just embarrassed Pete Hegseth in front of the entire Cabinet.

If Trump's $1.776B fund was really for "victims of DOJ weaponization," it wouldn't be for MAGA. What about the millions of Black people targeted by the war on drugs? We got reparations for MAGA insurrectionists before Black people.

I just spoke to Don Lemon, in one of our recent weekly Substack Lives, about the Trump Admin targeting him. He was fearless and said he stood by his reporting and the First Amendment. We all have to speak out, especially journalists. This is unacceptable and unconstitutional.

Trump influenced the GOP primaries in 2022 from exile in Mar-a-Lago. His election denier candidates won those primaries, then lost key races across battleground states. Trump's extreme primary picks could backfire once again this year.

Trump is telling Americans to ignore their lived experience and believe his lies. Actually acknowledging the affordability crisis would require him to admit failure and demonstrate human empathy: Two things Donald is incapable of. I talked about this on MS NOW:

At this point, we have to assume DHS is lying until proven true. They keep lying about ICE's victims. Journalists can not take their lies at face value. I had this conversation with Don Lemon a couple weeks ago. I said journalists' M.O. should be "disbelief before quotation."

Trump’s team is briefing him daily with 2-minute montages of only the successful Iran strikes. Trump’s Cabinet glazes him non-stop. The GOP is making up fake awards for him. This wartime President’s fragile ego is being managed like he’s a child, and we’re supposed to pretend this is normal?

"We could potentially be talking about a presentation next week." @PhilKitro gives the latest as Jose Mourinho reportedly nears a return to Real Madrid 👀

SEE HOW EASILY HE LIES The reflecting pool sounds like a disaster: holes and bubbling pain. Trump first bragged that he sent in a contractor he personally used before, a guy who “does pools.” Now suddenly it’s: “I did not know the contractor,” and the folks at Interior made the pick.

Odsonne Édouard (eligible for Haiti) on why he didn’t change his nationality to play at the WC: “I didn't feel I had the right to play in this World Cup because the players had fought hard to qualify, and I wasn't going to show up at the last minute just to take advantage of it. I have to earn it.”

Amin Abdullah, the security guard slain at the Islamic Center of San Diego, was hailed as a fallen hero who sacrificed his life to keep 140 school children inside the mosque safe by engaging two gunmen in a shootout that deterred the teenage suspects and helped thwart their attack.
