When Donald Trump is at his most vulnerable, when he feels most threatened, he tells fans not to believe their own eyes and ears. Here's my latest for @TheAtlantic: theatlantic.com/politics/arc…

1/ Hey everybody, I’ve got a new story out. It’s an *exclusive* look inside PROJECT 2025’s plan to train an army of political appointees who could battle against the so-called deep state bureaucracy for a future Trump administration. The story began with a tip. It's 🧵 time…

People keep saying "unprecedented" like there's never been an election when a Dem incumbent drops out, RFK is running, the Dem convention is in Chicago, there's an unpopular foreign war, the Rep nominee is a crook who thinks he's above the law, and a leading candidate gets shot

>Akiko Iwasaki (@VirusesImmunity), director of the Center for Infection and Immunity at Yale University School of Medicine, said some post-acute infection illnesses can turn up years later: “We will need to keep this type of long-term follow-up studies for extended periods.”
"Three years after their initial bouts with COVID-19, patients who’d once been hospitalized with the virus remained at 'significantly elevated' risk of death or worsening health from long COVID complications" We can't pretend this isn't happening. fortune.com/well/article/cov…

When Donald Trump complains that the prosecutors, the judge, and the jury have treated him unfairly, do not believe him. I’ve been in court every day of this historic criminal trial of a former President. I spent over a decade as a criminal prosecutor in Manhattan. Let me be clear: Donald Trump received a fair trial. Over the past six weeks, I’ve endeavored to bring you detailed analysis of the evidence and arguments at this trial. My conclusion: the prosecution presented a compelling case with strong witnesses corroborated by documentary evidence. The defense had no competing theory of the case, nor did it effectively raise reasonable doubt. As a result, I correctly predicted that the jury would return a guilty verdict on @TheBeatWithAri on Tuesday and I correctly predicted that the jury’s verdict would be returned no later than this Friday on @KatiePhang’s YouTube special yesterday. The bottom line is that Donald Trump lost fair and square. He lost because the prosecutors outlawyered the defense team and, more importantly, he lost because he is guilty.

>A discrimination case pending in a Manhattan court might force Trump’s previous campaigns’ suppression efforts into the light. Arlene Delgado sued the 2016 campaign & 3 senior officials for discrimination after she became pregnant by her supervisor, spokesperson Jason Miller.
A federal judge has ordered the Trump campaign to produce by May 31 a list of all discrimination and harassment complaints made during his 2016 + 2020 runs. The campaign had tried to keep these allegations confidential through rigorously enforced NDAs. propublica.org/article/trump…

Great week to remember that noncitizen voting = proven nonissue. In this election year, public officials should focus on making sure people can vote - not wasting our time on ridiculousness. Get the facts from @SMoralesDoyle @BrennanCenter brennancenter.org/our-work/a…
