David Waldman and Greg Dworkin deliver us to the weekend, exceeding our expectations yet again.
In France, oil refinery strikers continue to persevere. In Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu will need to persevere without the support of Joe Biden and the UAE. Ukrainians persevere, and maybe even flourish.
What a maroon! Bugs Bunny couldn’t hope to own Ron DeSantis better than Disney and their lawyers will, in perpetuity, or maybe even longer. DeSantis will lose big to Donald Trump also, by the way. Heels like Trump always win, always. (On TV.) Corporate villains like Ron DeSantis always lose. (On TV.) Is there a “real life” version of the Republicans anymore? Ivanka Trump will prefer to watch her father’s demise on her phone.
Republicans are running on “parent’s rights”, but what rights are parents getting? There can only be so many books they could ban. Meanwhile, Democrats are running on restoring abortion rights. Obamacare keeps winning… and losing.
Michigan Democrats keep winning for Michiganders, which turns out to be winning for Michigan Democrats.
Allen Weisselberg is picking up the tab on his lawyers from now on, so at least he’s turning his back on Trump’s money.
Trump judge Matthew Kacsmaryk took some time out of his fabricating reasoning for banning abortion medication to Twitter-bully University of Texas School of Law professor Steve Vladeck, which isn’t respectable judicial behavior, but few things are anymore.
