  5. as for “the other sporting* event $60M and 7 federal agencies required to stage Trump’s UFC fight at White House
    President Donald Trump’s planned UFC fight on the White House’s South Lawn has required a monumental effort from more than seven federal agencies, hundreds of staff working onsite daily and at least $60 million, according to a legal filing that offers a glimpse into the preparations.
    The event is part of the 250th anniversary of America’s founding, and is scheduled for the weekend with the main attraction — seven mixed martial arts matches — on Sunday.
    That is, if a judge doesn’t halt the proceedings, which is sought by two Virginia residents in a federal lawsuit against the National Park Service, which oversees the South Lawn. [continues]

    **termed “human cockfighting” by Sen. John McCain in 1996

  6. TODAY 250 Years ago: a panicked Congress put a loud-mouthed lawyer with no military experience in charge of the logistics of a war they were losing.

    Jefferson wrote pretty words. John Adams handled the rolling panic attack.

  7. Is Donald “Jinx” tRUMP going to a US match? Nothing branded “US” deserves to win anything right now.

  8. don’t be surprised Monday, when they take down “the Claw” as Dodo promised, the thing will be moved to Memorial Circle and deemed the acting Arc de Trump (with gold gilding of course but sans octagon cage)

  9. Woodrow Wilson’s Legacy Is Loaded With Good and Bad, but His Work to Even the Economic Playing Field Is Often Overlooked

    He won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in ending WWI and strove to improve the plight of American workers. Today, his blind spots shroud most of his accomplishments

    Imagine American democracy as a mountain lake, its waters held back by an earthen dam of legal, constitutional and cultural restraints. Periodically, the dam’s sluiceways become clogged by entrenched interests, concentrated wealth or fear of the unfamiliar. At such moments, we welcome an Andrew Jackson or a Theodore Roosevelt, those improbable champions of the working man, to clear the spillways of our democratic experiment, strengthening the dam and the lake it makes possible.

    Woodrow Wilson’s March 1913 inauguration heralded just such a repair job. That spring, he became the first president in more than a century to address Congress in person. The next day, he returned. Operating out of the President’s Room in the Capitol, he successfully lobbied members to enact the most significant tariff reductions since the Civil War. This was the opening move in Wilson’s campaign to level the economic playing field by strengthening competition against the forces of monopoly.

    A minister’s son reared in the South during and after the Civil War, Wilson may have had dyslexia, and his temperament was judged too remote for mass appeal. (He remains the only American president to earn a PhD.) Deploying persuasive talents honed as an academic instructor and administrator, his first-term legislative record reflects the progressive agenda at flood tide. Wilson created the Federal Reserve to reclaim for Washington the fiscal initiative that had been assumed by Wall Street. Consumers as well as small businesses benefited from his establishment of the Federal Trade Commission. Labor unions gained new protections via the Clayton Antitrust Act.

    Under Wilson’s leadership, the federal government worked to curtail child labor in factories and introduced an eight-hour workday for railroad employees. Twice, the president vetoed immigration bills because they included literacy tests that he thought unjustly targeted disadvantaged populations. In 1916, he appointed Louis Brandeis as the first Jewish justice on the Supreme Court. Admirers hailed Wilson for his eloquence and commitment to reform. Harry Truman called him “the greatest of the greats.” In 1958, Herbert Hoover wrote a sympathetic memoir-biography about Wilson the visionary, who drafted his Fourteen Points hoping to end the First World War and prevent future conflict through a League of Nations.

    Seven decades on, the mention of Wilson’s name evokes a very different consensus. Few historical figures better illustrate what British historian E.P. Thompson labeled “the enormous condescension of posterity,” with its inherent bias toward “now” over a less enlightened “then.” Scorned on the right as a statist conducting a dress rehearsal for the New Deal and Great Society, Wilson is disparaged by the left for his segregation of the federal workforce and wartime abuses against civil liberties. His diplomatic performance at the Paris Peace Conference is widely panned. His stubborn refusal to compromise with Senate critics of the resulting Versailles Treaty is blamed for the United States’ failure to join the League.

    On the eve of his first inauguration, Wilson had mused, “It would be an irony of fate if my administration had to deal chiefly with foreign affairs.” The remark was sadly prophetic. For while U.S. foreign policy ever since has been weighed for its adherence to Wilsonian priorities, and Wilson’s own efforts to promote human rights and international cooperation earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 1919, his name is commonly linked with home-front intolerance and suppression of dissent. A near-fatal stroke effectively ended his presidency 17 months before he officially left office in March 1921. During this period, Wilson’s second wife, Edith, functioned in a role somewhere between doorkeeper and deputy president.

    Today, the sole Democrat to occupy the White House between Grover Cleveland and Franklin Roosevelt has been airbrushed out of his party’s history. Other institutions have followed suit: Weeks after George Floyd’s death at the hands of white police officers in May 2020, Princeton University, citing the “racist thinking and policies” of its onetime reformist president, struck Wilson’s name from its school of public affairs.

    Ironically, before recent reckonings, the last time anyone had toppled a Wilson statue was in 1941 in Prague, as ordered by the city’s Nazi occupiers. Even now, America’s 28th president is more highly regarded in Poland and the former Czechoslovakia—nations whose establishment he championed at Versailles—than among his own compatriots. And yet. That we are still debating the Wilsonian legacy a century after his life ended at his house on S Street NW in Washington, D.C. testifies to the scale of the man’s ambition and the relevance of his ideas. He may be out of fashion, but now as then, Woodrow Wilson matters.

    Obama Iran Deal Mic Drop & The New Chaos

    Obamas Iran deal mic drop exposes the current chaos. Plus Elon Musks trillion-dollar tax dodge and a deep dive into American historical panics.

    Craig Crawford and the crew serve up a reality check on the latest Middle East bluster. While European media actually talks to Iranian leaders, our markets fall for every tweet. We look back at Obamas straightforward nuclear deal and wonder why we traded quiet diplomacy for a circus on the front lawn.

    Meanwhile Elon Musk hits trillionaire status off the taxpayer dime, proving the system works perfectly if you never have to pay into Social Security past the first ten minutes of the year. We also navigate the AI snake videos taking over the algorithm, Dexters poltergeist microphone, and the latest conspiracies Jack usually warns us about.

    Finally Katie previews her new Revolutionary War podcast, and we wrap with an Echoes of America look at John Adams. Two hundred and fifty years ago the Continental Congress tapped a loudmouth lawyer to run a war he knew nothing about. Proof that rolling panic attacks are a proud American tradition.

  12. From today’s Team Talarico email:

    Good news: Cook Political and Sabato’s Crystal Ball both moved their race ratings in our direction after Ken Paxton won the runoff.

    Better news: A former George W. Bush strategist told Vanity Fair, “Many Lone Star Republicans tell me…there’s no way in hell they’ll vote for Paxton.” He called James “a rare talent” and predicted, “This may finally be the year that Democrats wake up from their fever dreams on Election Day to discover that Texas has become a state swung blue.”

    Best news: Two public polls in a row after the runoff show James is leading Ken Paxton!

  13. https://www.npr.org/2026/06/12/g-s1-127700/kennedy-center-trumps-name

    Kennedy Center board seeks pause of ruling ordering removal of Trump’s name

    The board voted Thursday to seek a stay of U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper’s May 29 ruling that said Trump’s name was illegally added to the Kennedy Center, according to a person familiar with the move who requested anonymity to discuss a private meeting. The formal request was filed late Thursday.

    In addition to voting on the stay on Thursday, the board backed a resolution recognizing Trump’s “commitment to uphold this cherished American institution.”

    The board move marks a shift from a June 4 memo to staff from the Kennedy Center’s Office of General Counsel saying email signatures, letterhead and other documents must reflect the name as “The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts” or “Kennedy Center.”

    The Kennedy Center’s website has dropped the president’s name. And an email earlier this week sent to members offering ticket packages for the June 28 Mark Twain Award for American Humor ceremony came from the Kennedy Center without including Trump’s name.

  14. trump won 12% more votes in TX than Kamala in 2024

    don’t hold your breath on Talarico, political media hype nonsense

    TWELVE PERCENT

    in a 51/49 world

  15. The MS Now Livestream on YT is showing the crew erecting the scaffolding to remove the lettering of the stupid name on the JFK Memorial Center for the Performing Arts building. If they pop the letters of that means the appeal to not pop the letters off failed.

    Note: this should up in a recommended list of YT videos, I guess you would need to do a search for it.

  16. Welp, gonna have to wait until Monday to record. Gotta love a busy weekend. Will have both up Monday afternoon.

  17. Anon – Kamala wasn’t white. Kamala wasn’t a man. Ken Paxton has no bootlicking cult to vote for him.

  18. They not only have to remove the stump from the bldg, they have to also repair the scars left from its having been there.
    Is this a taxpayer situational n? Who pays?

  19. TRUMP’S FOLLY

    Covering the Coverage: Iran War

    The media today is busy tracking the massive gap between Trump’s PR victory lap and the actual text. The consensus across the reporting ecosystem highlights a bizarre theater: Trump declaring immediate triumph while his own officials scramble on background to admit the nuclear terms are purely “conceptual.”

    • [Mainstream]: Tracking the whiplash of Trump declaring “We ended the war” at a local political rally while officials admit the agreement remains purely “conceptual.” – Just Security
    • [Mainstream]: Framing Trump’s frantic search for a “victory lap” and an “exit ramp” as competing interests, highlighting how a weekend PR blitz collides with complex reality. – PBS NewsHour
    • [International]: Analyzing the narrative rift between the White House claiming a total nuclear teardown and Tehran leaking terms that protect their grip on the Strait of Hormuz. – The Hindu
    • [Mainstream]: Dissecting the administration’s anonymous briefing spin, which walks back Trump’s immediate triumph by adding a 60-day lag for actual technical details. – CBS News
    • [Middle East]: Evaluating how regional coverage highlights the absurdity of Trump claiming the Strait of Hormuz “has been open for months, and you just didn’t know about it.” – The Times of Israel

  20. This is going forward because a judge just denied a request from the Trump-owned Kennedy Center Board to pause removal. Center staff is moving quickly before the board figures out what to do next.

    Loving all the live feeds. I was going to go myself but too damn hot today.

    Here’s the AP feed…

  21. Anon
    If the Republicans had been smart and elected their sitting Senator then you would have been spot on. Now not so much. It is not going to be a cake walk but Trump and Maga voter have put a safe seat in play.
    I would call Texas a lean Republican but a donation to Talarico is not throwing money away. If nothing else it makes the oppo move money to defend a previously safe seat.
    But yeah, you are right in one thing, don’t be celebrating too soon, it is Texas.
    Jack

  22. What I’m hearing from inside Republican circles is that having to spend a couple hundred million on Texas means they’re going to abandon North Carolina all together. That was the extra money they were going to use to try and beat Roy Cooper but now that’s off the table thanks to Trump pushing Paxton.

  23. yeah, Cooper can win that seat for sure

    I don’t believe a single opinion poll that has Talarico tied or ahead, either the methodology is flawed or Texas Republicans know how to screw with pollsters

  24. Ken Paxton has no bootlicking cult to vote for him.

    yeah, he does: trump’s bootlicking cult

    Rent-A-Cult

  25. It seems to be shaping up in this election is that the Republicans are spread thin, too many places need their support. But then Elon Musk et al can move millions into a race with a key stroke. The official Republican/Democrat funds to spend are chicken feed compared to the dark money being spent.

    Jack

  26. Anon, I would agree with your skepticism had Cornyn won the nomination but I see this as similar to why Kari Lake could not win two races in Arizona despite her cult icon status — she went out of her way to alienate McCain Republicans. Paxton is doing that with Bush Republicans in Texas. About a third say they are either voting for Talarico or no one. That happens to be almost exactly the same number of McCain Republicans whose withdrawal defeated Lake.

  27. I’m guessing Trump is going bonkers right now seeing these images of the scaffolding now on cable news. Don’t rule out some last minute trick. He knows those letters coming down will upstage his cage match festival on the south lawn. He might just send in the National Guard to stop the workers.

  28. I like Tallarico’s media team and his messaging and if I like it, that means it’s a losing message

    People don’t vote on morality they just post about it

  29. He knows those letters coming down will upstage his cage match festival on the south lawn

    Holy cow you guys are high on your own supply. The UFC fight is bigger than World Cup. It’s all anybody’s talking about. not even Trump gives a shit about the Kennedy Center. It’s just about trolling the liberals holy shit. When will people figure out this guy’s game?

    I’ll be surprised if libdems take a single chamber, out of touch like crazy because you’re in these blue city bubbles is why

  30. Yesterday evening a couple of young men. Uhhh, maybe 14. Right at that age where one of them was in puberty and one wasn’t. They were wanting work. So I ask them how much and they quoted a price. I said “OK, I can do that, but tomorrow, stop by about noon.” Having done this before I didn’t hold my breath but just in case I did think of 2 hours of work that they could do for me. To be honet I was going to spen almost as much time showing them the ropes. But, we live in a community and part of the obligation of an “Old fart” is to train to new generation.
    But, it is 2 pm and I said noon and they aren’t here. Another bit of bread cast upon the waters.
    However, we don’t give up, even if they show up tommorrow, with all kinds of excuses.
    It is not like I wasn’t any better when I was 14. That is something I always have to remind myself.
    Jack

    Jack

  31. “The UFC fight is bigger than World Cup. ”
    Not in Kansas City, right now it is World Cup and milking the tourist for every dollar in their pockets.
    Who gives a fuck about the UFC?
    Not over 10% of Americans. Trump is the best thing the UFC has going for it> Somebody suddenly knows it exists.

  32. you’re out of touch man sorry UFC is huge

    I actually respect that you don’t understand how popular it is so don’t take that the wrong way

  33. A thought on communicating with young aspiring businessmen.
    I wonder if they understood their quote was for by the hour rather than for the job. I offered them 2 hrs work. at $13/hr but if they bid for $13 for the 2 hrs. I can understand why they didn’t show up.
    Being a supporting member of the community is so hard.

    Then again young folks is young folks and who knows what can distract them.

    Jack

  34. I sorry the NBA play offs is huge.
    UFC may equal US soccer but I wouldn’t bet on. World cup hype? No fucking way. It is a niche sport at the best. Not even 50% of the maga crowd are UFC fans. It is fucking wrestling with kung foo thrown in
    Jack

  35. Anon, My point is dumbass is obsessing on it right now, I guarantee it. when he saw that scaffolding on TV he knows the media is going to spend at least as much time on that as his stupid cage fight. I understand they’re trying to win back young male voters for the midterms with this event, nothing at the Kennedy Center will change that.

  36. It’s a hustle Craig wake up

    guy’s robbing everyone blind while they worry about adhesive letters

    He’s laughing his ass off, not chewing his nails

  38. nah you guys are getting worked

    just know that every time you bring up the Kennedy Center you are only talking to overinformed liberals

    Seriously wise up

    six fucking billion dollars we know about

    And you think he cares about the Kennedy center give me a break

  39. 37,000 trades and how many fucking tweets and you think he’s sitting around fretting about the Kennedy center. You’re an idiot if you think that Craig.

    lineup every liberal so I could slap some goddamn sense into them

    Lovingly, of course

  40. Anon
    This is not about Trump, he is what he is. You are letting Trump live in your head.
    This is about the “average” suburban voters. They don’t do cage matches. They are more likely to take their kid to soccer. Reach them You win the election, Forget the maga idiot.
    Jack

  41. I was right about everything in 2024 and you were wrong about everything in 2024

    I know I’m right if you argue with me, it’s a reliable standard

    all right enjoy the Kool-Aid y’all

    your point about dark money was spot on actually, why would you follow that with some bullshit about “understanding the average suburban voter”, what is this, “Morning Joe”?

  42. UFC is big within a certain age range. It’s He Man-warfighter crap, and its purpose this weekend is to tie it to what some call ~patriotism~ to get new recruits for the military.

    World Cup is bigger in every city hosting matches, in any city where there are folks from other countries watching their home team, and women play and watch soccer, too.

    There are more soccer players, starting when they’re kids, than there are folks participating in fighting, so the soccer fanbase is bigger, too.

    Having said that, FIFA was foolish to manufacture that ~peace prize~ for tRUMP, but Infantino and the organization are very corrupt.

    The Somali ref the US refused to let in was greeted as a hero back home, and invited to ref a match in Canada.

  43. it ain’t bragging if it’s true

    and you already knew I understand narcissism, you just wanted a cute line, do better

  44. Elon Musk has become the world’s first trillionaire after shares of SpaceX went public on a US stock exchange this Friday. Shares of the company started trading at $150 (£112) shortly before noon eastern time, and have risen to around $170 (£126) during the day. SpaceX is at the same time a spaceflight business, a telecommunication company through Starlink, and an AI and social media firm through x AI. A big part of the demand for SpaceX shares amounts to “a bet on what AI companies plan and could achieve”, writes our reporter Michael Race. More AI mega-listings are expected this year, with Open AI and Anthropic set to follow suit.

  45. TRUMP BECOMES JIMMY CARTER

    Trump tore up a functional Iran deal only to get completely played by Tehran. The Iranians know exactly how to humiliate a sitting president.

  46. Oh Dexter was also right about everything in 2024

    i read all his posts with that acknowledgement

  47. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c17ydny8zyro

    Jailed South Korea ex-president gets 30 more years for sending drones into North

    Prosecutors argued that Yoon ordered the operation in October 2024 to provoke Pyongyang and create a pretext for his failed martial law bid later that year.

    When Yoon declared martial law on 3 December, he had claimed he was protecting the country from “anti-state” forces that sympathised with North Korea. But it soon became clear he was driven by domestic troubles and he rolled back the order in the face of mass protests.

  48. listen, I’ve wandered off the reservation into centrist and center right media and I’m telling you with the same consideration that you tell somebody they have something on their shirt that your heads are up your own asses

    except BiD and Dexter

    take it or leave it you’re welcome

  49. Greta Thunberg says that Europe is watching ICE, and it’s inspiring an EU-wide deportation plan.

    They’re going snippets of history for 250 on a local channel. This afternoon’s nugget was that the inspiration for Uncle Sam was a meatpacker named Samuel Wilson. How appropriate: Uncle Sam’s my name and slaughtering is my game.

  50. this war is normalizing trump whether he loses or not

    in international media he isn’t “the deranged profiteering madman” he is “the American president”

    in domestic corporate media he isn’t “the criminal political arsonist”, he is “President Trump” and the legitimate leader of a nation at war (for profit of choice)

    public-facing elected Republicans couldn’t be more sycophantic, they don’t seem worried about midterms

  51. Well, the young men finally showed up, 3 hrs late.
    But it is always a reminder when working with 14 yr olds.
    I’ve learned a lot of shit in my lifetime. Some just as simple as how to use a wheelbarrow
    Jack

  52. If not for taxpayer-funded government contracts, exploiting the labor (many who were partially educated by taxpayer-funded schools), and use of taxpayer-funded infrastructure, MuskRat would have nothing.

    Like Orange Adolf, he’s more than a self-promoter, he’s a narcissist who overbreeds because the world needs more, little Jim’s, and who pops up on TV too much, even hosting SNL.

    Oh, and he came to the US on a student visa, but illegally worked here. So, attach all of his assets (which are our tax dollars) and deport him to South Africa where he can ‘seek help’ all he wants.

  53. Anon – Dumbass actually is sitting around on his diapered backside “fretting” about everything. Actually, stewing is probably a better word than fretting.
    He wants it all.
    He forgets no perceived slight.

    Oh, and the congressional weasels aren’t afraid of midterms because the fix is in. We’ve gotta find a way to beat it, spotlight it, something.
    I still think anyone Paxton didn’t get to vote for him in the primary or runoff isn’t going to vote for him in November.

  54. Jack – Glad the kids showed up. They might need a father figure or mentor as much as they need a job for some spending money.

  55. I’m saying this to you as someone who at least appreciates what I’m saying I think it’s a work

    A job a con a hustle

    like most of it, the dementia, the sleeping, the trolling, the buildings, who knows

    and if no one else listens to that Freakonomics episode i posted with Fareed Zakaria you should

    he articulates well what “citizenship” has come to mean in a late stage hyper capitalist society

  56. True. Adolf wants to be at the top of the dogpile.

    Saw two baby deer on the road today; they ran down an embankment to the creek. Further down the road was their mamma going down the embankment on the opposite side of the road. I hope they found each other.

  57. So many empty seats at US v Paraguay. Filling up with “US fans.” Yeah, could anyone from Paraguay get into the country, even if they could afford the crazy ticket prices?

    SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles has a seating capacity of 70,240, which can be expanded to over 100,000 for major events…so when a commentator says there are “almost 70,000 fans,” he means not sold out and we can see the empty seats, which could’ve been filled with high school soccer teams.

    Fun seeing Thierry Henry as commentator; reminds me of “Ted Lasso.”

  58. They were a dozen miles from the garden, but we have deer around here, too.

    Craig – Question is who will he blame when it finally comes down? Whose head will roll? Will he settle for calling it a stupid place that was nothing before got involved, and now it will go to hell? He’s so predictable. He bores me.

  59. Well it seems the good folk at the JFK Center are starting to have fun. Somebody should be singing Tonight Tonight. Stupid wanted a crowd he is getting it tonight.

  60. Awesome! Perfect pic for the history books.

  61. The “Where’s Waldo” uniforms of the US team are giving me a chuckle.

    Damn! US got a goal. I want Paraguay to win this one.

    From the sound of it, France’s second team is good enough to win it all.

    Rubio is there. Wonder if he’s got the jinx gene?

  65. Well, the name removal had over 40,000 watching at one point. Do you think Adolf was one of them? Do you think he could help himself?

  66. well Spencer Pratt has become more dangerous than i ever expected
