Donald Trump became the first sitting president to attend an NBA Finals game—and the first to be booed for an entire half—while Ted Cruz lambasted Democrats for supporting Graham Platner, their racist and misogynistic Maine senate candidate. (That’s like the pot calling the kettle Trump.)

Donald Trump’s $1.8 billion weaponization fund to pay January 6 rioters reparations has been abandoned thanks to Republicans who want to use the money more wisely (like preventing Democrats from voting) while Trump says negotiations with Iran are boring and doesn’t care if they’re over.

Donald Trump is cancelling America’s 250th birthday concert after many performers bailed because the event is really a MAGA rally (now THERE’s a surprise) while a federal judge ruled that Trump’s rebranding the Kennedy Center in his own name is illegal. (Does Trump ever do anything that’s LEGAL?)

Donald Trump swung a deal with the IRS, which will no longer pursue any claims it may have against him and his family (that seems fair) while Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy extolled the virtues of a road trip he took with his family for a TV series.

Asked if rising inflation and skyrocketing gas prices was a motivation for him to end the Iran war, Donald Trump said Americans’ financial struggles never crossed his mind (there’s a shocker). He then called media reports that Iran was doing well against the U.S. military treasonous. (He misspelled truthful.)
