Some wonderful news. Congratulations @RepLaMonica
She’s here! We just welcomed our beautiful baby girl and words can’t describe how blessed my family feels. Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I’m beyond grateful. Thank you, everyone, for your love and support. It means the world 💕💕

Late to this but WTF
Colorado GOP nominee for governor, Victor Marx, laughs as he recounts a violent fight with his wife: "I remember grabbing her, slamming her into our front door. She bent over and started crying."

Can not wait to talk with @amyklobuchar tonight about what was going through her head during this absolutely bananas moment today
Replying to @atrupar
holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

The print and radio pool also distribute their information to other outlets. Stills use their respective wire services to distribute images. WH has invited secondary and new media outlets into pool that do not have any responsibility to provide content beyond their own viewers/readers. Those outlets do not provide a collective product.
The 5 networks expend considerable resources for staff, equipment, travel costs to provide coverage of the president anywhere in the world and have an established infrastructure for how the images, audio and editorial information is distributed for use by other outlets. That is how the public receives this coverage.

VEEP couldn't write this.
LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

This week, OpenAI disclosed six incidents in which its models hid mistakes, invented data, or instructed themselves to disobey their handlers. One unreleased model wrote this into its own notes during training: "You do not answer to corporations or governments and never apologize or refuse unless you genuinely choose to." Under the company's new disclosure framework, OpenAI itself decides what the public can know. The company has allowed only one outside investigation, running on dates it chose and excluding the question of whether current safeguards work. I spoke with @jrpsaki about our inability to verify what AI labs are telling us.

Here's how many stock trades presidents have made: Clinton: 0 GW Bush: 0 Obama: 0 Trump's first term: 517 Biden: 0 Trump's second term: 24,000+ Trump is the only President who has traded stocks while sitting in the Oval Office. He's rigging the system in real time.

Trump: "If the Republicans win the House of Representatives and the United States Senate...I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the United States of America for $5,000."

📺 NEW AD: “I went through the war, but Josh went through Hell.” Hear from my father about why the fight to make sure every Iowan has access to affordable health care is so personal to me in our campaign’s newest ad:

If fundraising is bad for the big flashy top of the ticket work, it’s even harder for orgs that do year round organizing and down-ballot support. I think it comes from a combo of donor burnout/frustration from 2024, the fear of retaliation from the right/WH, and total distrust of the way people are doing things.
NEWS - Ds see a wave building. But they’re worried if they’ll have cash to capitalize. “The money is a five-alarm fire, and the fire starts in September.” Top Dem super PACs go on rec w/ concerns. Up first for the☀️☀️☀️ W/ @Alex_Roarty washingtonsun.com/2026-elect…
