Greetings!  Fox News hosted an all-star bro-fest last night featuring Sean Hannity’s unctuous interview with Donald Trump and Elon Musk.  Per usual, Hannity’s questions seemed scripted by Team Trump. Here’s an excerpt from that chat if you have the stomach for it….A Wall Street Journal op-ed by German journalist Filipp Piatov takes a barely-veiled swipe at JD Vance, declaring that his country’s far-right AfD party is no friend of the U.S. Vance met with Alice Weidel, the head of the AfD, five days ago. The article is another example of the increasingly critical tone of the Journal’s historically conservative editorial pages towards the current Trump administration…Images on social media captured the moment in Philadelphia when an ICE van was ablaze. MAGA media like Border Hawk News implied that the van was set on fire by opponents of the immigrant crackdown. The Daily Beast sets the record straight on the accidental cause of the fire…Just askin’: Where is the outrage amongst Trump-voting federal employees who supported The Donald this past November and now find themselves unemployed? Buyer’s remorse as their careers are derailed  and the bills pile up must be setting in. Will that segment of MAGA-nation ever let the collective angry voice of betrayal sound out?...Dept. of Bad Timing: I have a flight this afternoon from West Palm Beach to New York.  It happens that the Lord of Mar-a-Lago is also flying north from the same airport today.  I’m prepping for a slow slog to Palm Beach International Airport and  a delayed departure.

Trump – an  ardent admirer of Hungarian dictator Viktor Orbán – did not make the list.  Leading the list? George Washington. The Hungarian Conservative also named the ten worst American presidents and Joe Biden wound up on that hall of shame…On Sunday, “60 Minutes” ran a strong,  even-handed segment on Trump and Elon Musk’s moves on USAID and what it portends for other government agencies. Victory Girls whines that the 60 Minutes piece was a  full “propaganda banger,” as well as “sob fest.” NewsBusters also scoffed at the report because it claimed that the two fired government workers featured in the story were not “the kind of nonpartisan workers the liberal media would like you to believe.” Here’s a link to the segment so decide for yourself…Also on Sunday night, NBC broadcast a three-and-a-half-hour 50^th anniversary special for “Saturday Night Live” that was mostly non-political.  Steve Martin’s hilarious opening monologue contained the most politically oriented content with the 79-year-old comedian boasting that he was “SNL’s” newest diversity hire and that he was just vacationing on a boat in the Gulf of Steve Martin.
