How could anybody - democrat, republican or independent - think that this looks normal? Images like these will be held up to future generations as an example of an authoritarian period in our history and it will be a shameful one. Deeply shameful. Video credit to Status Coup.

With its poll numbers on immigration tanking, the WH is stealing music from Drake and touting Trump as “Iceman” on TikTok with scenes of the admin’s ICE assault on Minneapolis. Bonkers stuff.

Update from the reflecting pool! The pool has been drained, and there are no signs of the giant gash that Donald Trump has been lying about. No indications of major vandalism. Just a bad paint job. The only thing that’s been exposed is that Trump has been lying about this.

Went looking for the 300 foot “slit” or “slits” in the reflecting pool Trump keeps lying about. Didn’t find any of that. But did find plenty of signs the paint on the bottom of the pool has simply disintegrated. My latest pool report.

Shoddy displays and tiny crowds. But lots of Trump worship. Sad. My report from Trump’s Great American State Fair down on the National Mall.

During my interview with Ramaswamy, he reiterated his position that he would allow Putin to keep parts of Ukraine, block Ukraine from joining NATO and even visit Putin in Moscow. The GOP contender added: “Our goal should not be for Putin to lose.”

A show you don’t want to miss at 4p ET / 1p PT. I’ll be having a one of a kind interview with Joaquin Oliver. He died in the Parkland school shooting in 2018. But his parents have created an AI version of their son to deliver a powerful message on gun violence. Plus Texas State Rep. James Talarico - see you soon on Substack and later on YouTube.

Trump’s reflecting pool project is still an eyesore! Two months after he promised it would look like a swimming pool or the Caribbean in time for the 250th birthday of this country on July 4 it’s almost empty. No signs of vandalism.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Donald Trump lied again about 9/11 this week. He made up a story about what happened that day saying, “we thought it was coming down on top of us, and two firemen — big, strong guys, and I’m not the smallest guy in the world — they grabbed me under the arms, said, ‘Gotta get out of here,’ and they literally lifted me up. This isn’t easy to do. I’m big. They lifted me up and they started running with me. I said, ‘Fellas, I can run myself.’” Nope. That’s a lie. Who lies about 9/11 like this? My thoughts…

Breaking: Kennedy Center staff is now being ordered to remove Trump’s name from the building. The removal of his name could happen within hours or days. As I found earlier today, his name is even on the center’s buses.

We found it. The 22 foot golden statue of Donald Trump at his Doral Golf Course in Florida. It’s very shiny. Not exactly life-like. But very North Korea feeling for sure.

This was another deranged dictator speech from Trump. No evidence was presented that votes were changed in 2020. The only election fraudster is Trump. He tried to overturn a free and fair election. My reaction to this dangerous speech:
