it's amazing how stale Trump's material is. Scary migrants. Out of control drug abuse. Promises of mass deportation and musing about using the death penalty. Stories about his bromances with dictators. The big lie. It's the same mind-numbing stuff every single speech.

New in PN: Jim Jordan understands that congressional hearings are powerful political tools that drive news cycles and put pressure on officials. Dick Durbin does not. And Democrats are much worse off for it.

EDITOR: Get me a fresh story about Biden being old and senile, dammit! What, your only sources are Big Kev and MAGA Mike? I don't care, roll the damn thing!

"The elite media is trying to present this campaign in terms of, 'Do we prefer Romney’s tax plan or Obama’s?' What Trump’s doing does not fit that model, and attempts to continue behaving as if it does strike me as bizarre. It’s this zombified way in which the whole political apparatus moves forward with all of the same habits and tropes, despite an obvious break or breach from that model."

4 years ago when Trump wouldn't commit to accepting the election results, it was a big scandal that dominated headlines. Now, Republicans are saying "we'll see" about accepting the results on a daily basis and are met with shrugs. This is how authoritarianism becomes normalized.

Q: Kevin McCarthy said that every American should accept the election results in the fall. Do you agree with that?

MIKE JOHNSON: Well, I hope so ... look, we're the rule of law team.

"Um" -- get a load of the look on Merrick Garland's face as Rep. Victoria Spartz serves up an inscrutable word salad about owning unlimited guns (?)

Lieu: "Trump's campaign manager: felon. Trump's deputy campaign manger: felon. Trump's foreign policy adviser: felon. Trump's lawyer: felon. Trump's political adviser: felon. Trump's fundraiser: felon. It is not the fault of the DOJ that Trump surrounded himself with criminals."

asked about Marjorie Taylor Greene saying she's going to trigger a privileged resolution this week to impeach President Biden, Mike Johnson claims absurdly that "the impeachment power is one that we wield very carefully here ... there may well be impeachable offenses."

New in PN: Biden's fight against monopolies is a fight for democracy

"For decades lax antitrust enforcement has enabled the erosion of democratic institutions. Biden's changing that. It’s not the only issue we’ll be voting on in November, but it’s vital."

Today's Fauci hearing is a reminder of something that's easy to forget now -- 4 years ago, covid absolutely dominated public life here in the US and was a top issue in the 2020 campaign. It's easy to take for granted how skillfully Biden oversaw the vaccine rollout and got the economy back up and running. But it's one of the defining successes of his first term.

"Mike Johnson’s offhand mention that he’s already aware of the justices’ feelings about a case and his breezy reassurance that the Supreme Court will rescue Trump from himself should be a five-alarm fire."

Marjorie Taylor Greene Greene disgracefully disrespected Dr. Fauci during a hearing today: "Mr Fauci -- because you're not 'doctor' -- you're Mr. Fauci in my few minutes. No, I don't need your answer ... he belongs in prison"

New in PN: Mike Johnson says the quiet part on Fox

"We've learned that when Trump’s fate is in the hands of ordinary people rather than right-wing cronies, he gets convicted. So no wonder Mike Johnson desperately wants SCOTUS to step in."

George Stephanopoulos pushes back on Trump lawyer Will Scharf after Scharf alleges some form of collusion between Bragg and Biden: "There's no evidence of that. Sir, I'm not gonna let you continue to say that. There's just zero evidence. The DA in Manhattan is elected."

"I didn't say 'lock her up'" -- Trump, on Fox & Friends and facing possible jail time, tries to distance himself from the ubiquitous "lock her up" chants about Hillary Clinton at her rallies (he’s lying)

Trump on Fox & Friends: "I'm gonna do the big deportation. The biggest ever ... you'll get rid of 10 really bad ones. And one really beautiful mother ... it's always gonna be tough, it's not gonna be easy ... the way you get rid of them is the local police."
