Just arrived in a completely exultant New York City. And an amazing game. But man did the Spurs give it away twice at the end, first going for the layup rather than holding the ball and second, not blocking out Anunoby.
In today's roundtable, Harry convenes @realbarbaraboxer.bsky.social, @sykescharlie.bsky.social & @glennthrush.bsky.social to assess Republican infighting, the impact of the Platner scandal on the Senate map, and the latest questions surrounding Trump’s self-enrichment schemes.

"The argument is not that they’re acting in the interests of the American people; it’s rather that the American people can’t do anything about it."
Going LIVE on Substack in just a few moments with @weissmann.substack.com to talk about Blanche's AG nomination, the slush fund, and the sad state of the Department of Justice. Tune in live at 11 AM ET.

Trump does the evil deed, formally nominates Blanche for Attorney General.
New kickoff time: 11:20 am ET!
"The Department of Justice has served notice that it intends to play chicken with two federal judges. I’m betting on the judges."
"The DOJ’s position is headed directly into a buzzsaw in both Brinkema’s and Williams's courts. The Justice Department’s audacity does not match the strength of its position. And in both courts, the judges have every reason—and ample authority—to push back."
Here you have it—an ALL NEW @talkingfeds.bsky.social w/ @realbarbaraboxer.bsky.social, @sykescharlie.bsky.social &
@glennthrush.bsky.social.
We unpack a GOP revolt, the fallout from the Graham Platner scandal, Trump’s newest appointment, and the battle over his slush fund.

"Many of my colleagues believe that he can't be stopped. I see the force of their positions, but I don't share them. My best guess is that Trump’s Xanadu monstrosity does not get completed, even though it has been engineered to parry every legal and political challenge the system can throw at it."
