One easy way to tell they're not actually "the most transparent administration in history" is that this is the first time in five decades that the president and vice president didn't have their taxes audited and released to the public.

earlier today The Husband wondered whether NYT's No Kings coverage was so bad that it would become counterproductive for them--like, propagandaing so hard that it's not credible/useful and makes people suspicious of what else they're mischaracterizing

The NYT says today’s #NoKings protests had “no shortage of skeptics,” and then quoted exactly one of those skeptics: The chairman of the Ole Miss College Republicans (as of 2025.)
But of course, the Times doesn’t ID him as such. He’s just a Concerned Youth.

Trump will depart to Palm Beach for the weekend to spend time at his private club and participate in a fundraiser.
This is the second weekend in a row Trump has gone golfing as he risks the lives of American service members.

The United States gave Netanyahu over $24 billion in taxpayer dollars to fund his horrific war in Gaza.
That wasn't enough. Netanyahu wanted war with Iran. Trump gave him one.
The American people — not Netanyahu’s right-wing government — should determine U.S. foreign policy.
