A private prison company offered Minnesota an empty prison for 75 million dollars. The state said no. Then Trump’s administration paid the same company almost 500 million for it.
The prison has sat empty in Appleton, Minnesota since 2010. Last year CoreCivic emailed the state and offered to sell it for 75 million, upgrades included. Minnesota passed. Fifteen months later, Homeland Security bought it for an ICE detention center at 495.6 million.
How could this be? You guessed it. CoreCivic gave half a million dollars to Trump’s inaugural committee. And it still gets paid about 75 million a year to run the place.
Republicans love talking about fraud in Minnesota. JD Vance says his task force is all over it. So where are they on this one? I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).

Nancy Pelosi made 200 stock trades in her entire 40-year political career.
Donald Trump made 28,700 stock trades in just 1.5 years as president.
MAGA likes to scream about Pelosi's stock trades but not a word about Trump using the presidency to enrich himself.

I don’t understand why farmers need an endless series of welfare payments from the rest of us since Trump took office. Aren’t his policies working for you? You need us to pay you so you will keep voting for the guy who is failing you? Don’t you believe in free market capitalism?

In response to our reporting, Susan Collins has mustered a defense that is full of incorrect and misleading claims.
We’ve reviewed FBI evidence, examined thousands of pages of records and interviewed dozens of people.
Here are the receipts.

"McConnell would never be allowed to drive a car, babysit young children, or file his own taxes. Why, then, should a cognitively incapacitated 82-year-old retain one of the most important positions of power within the national government," per PublicNotice

After today the U.S. House of Representatives is off until after the midterm elections. That's a month and a half paid vacation.

BREAKING: Donald Trump made nearly 29,000 securities trades in 17 months, more than every member of Congress combined, per Bloomberg.
The stock-purchasing ban he’s pushing would also leave him exempt.

He asked a legitimate question and because Vance has no defensible answer and cannot blame Biden, he attacks the reporter and takes offense then moves on

Remember when the Supreme Court was like, “No, Biden, you can’t introduce rules to make student loans cheaper and forgive some of them”?
Then, a few years later, it was like, “Yeah, it’s cool if Trump commits literal crimes because he’s immune. Oh, and he can totally prevent people from voting.”
Wild times.

Rainmaker just produced ~19M gallons of water in Alaska via next-gen cloud seeding over 3 hours of operations.
We are the first company to provably produce precipitation in Alaska. As promised, we’ve linked our white paper and relevant data.
In the future, Rainmaker will protect and restore glaciers with man-made snowfall.
Immediately, this demonstration shows how Rainmaker will add new water to the Colorado River and Great Salt Lake in the coming months.
We turned around this analysis and white paper just a couple days after operating. There are many data sources I want to deepen our understanding of the atmosphere and increase our provable production; we’re building the instruments to collect that data in subsequent operations. But at Rainmaker, we won’t tout LOIs, simulations, or lab tests. What matters is physically measuring that you’ve affected the atmosphere; proving that we’ve produced water. We prefer sharing only the tech that has proven to make more water for farms, industries, and ecosystems in need.
Expect a regular cadence of these from us as we build the best atmospheric science lab in the world. Feedback is welcome in the interim.
Rainmaker Century.

Imagine controlling the presidency, House, Senate, Supreme Court, DOJ, FBI, CIA, and every aspect of federal government, but somehow can’t get anything done and still blame the other side for why. Pure incompetence and failure.

On a recent @DisneyCruise sailing, a uniformed cast member traded my young son 5 promo cards for a rare Lorcana card he’d just pulled. The card is worth about $4,000. I spent 6 weeks going through every proper channel to resolve this. Disney’s answer was no. 🧵
