On Tuesday, CBS released a preview of an interview that will air on “Sunday Morning” in which Tesla CEO Elon Musk said he was disappointed in Republican’s so-called “big beautiful bill,” heralded by President Donald Trump.
Musk said, “So, you know, I was like, disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not decrease it and undermines the work the DOGE team is doing.”
Correspondent David Pogue said, “I actually thought that when this big beautiful bill came along, I mean, like, everything he’s done on DOGE gets wiped out in the first year.”

Remember how Democrats were flipping out in April and telling us that President Donald Trump injecting tariffs into this trade equation was going to destroy the world? Well, maybe not that far, but you understand. Everything would go to heck in a handbasket, and the economy would tank.
But Democrats are going to be downcast at the latest news; their narrative is falling to pieces.
Not only are we not seeing destruction, the economy is doing well, and now, consumer confidence is soaring, as Beege Welborn at our sister site Hot Air is reporting.
Analysts had cautiously predicted May's consumer confidence number to come in at 86,

For more than a decade, the Democratic Party operated like a palace, ruled not by consensus but by decree. Its monarchs were familiar: President Barack Obama with his golden tongue and cool detachment, Nancy Pelosi with her iron gavel, and a press corps that never met a Democrat it couldn’t describe as “historic.”
Together, they built something. Not a movement but an illusion.
Now, in the wake of President Joe Biden’s implosion and Donald Trump’s return to the White House, the spell has broken. What was once ironclad unity has dissolved into whispered recriminations, panicked donor calls, and a leadership vacuum the size of Pennsylvania Avenue.

Last week we learned that Elias Rodriguez, the man who murdered two Israeli embassy staffers in Washington, DC, had left behind a manifesto in which he justified the use of violence. Here's a bit of it.
The impunity that representatives of our government feel at abetting this slaughter should be revealed as an illusion, then...
A perpetrator may then be a loving parent, a filial child, a generous and charitable friend, an amiable stranger, capable of moral strength at times when it suits him and sometimes even when it does not, and yet be a monster all the same. Humanity doesn't exempt one from accountability.

The Trump administration is weighing requiring all foreign students applying to study in the United States to undergo social media vetting — a significant expansion of previous such efforts, according to a cable obtained by POLITICO.
In preparation for such required vetting, the administration is ordering U.S. Embassies and consular sections to pause scheduling new interviews for such student visa applicants, according to the cable, dated Tuesday and signed by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
If the administration carries out the plan, it could severely slow down student visa processing. It also could hurt many universities who rely heavily on foreign students to boost their financial coffers.

NPR has filed a lawsuit against President Donald Trump challenging his executive order to end federal funding for NPR and PBS.
NPR, Colorado Public Radio, Aspen Public Radio and KSUT Public Radio filed the lawsuit Tuesday in federal court in Washington, D.C. They argue that Trump’s order violates the First Amendment’s protections of speech and the press.
“The president has no authority under the Constitution to take such actions,” the lawsuit adds. “On the contrary, the power of the purse is reserved to Congress.”

President Trump is instructing federal agencies to identify and sever remaining contracts with Harvard University, further tightening the screws in the fight with the Ivy League institution.
The letter from the General Services Administration (GSA) asks all federal agencies to help in a review to terminate or transition federal government contracts with Harvard and its affiliates. A copy of the letter was shared with The Hill by a source familiar with the matter. The letter accuses Harvard of engaging in racial discrimination, justifying the termination of contracts.
“As relevant here, GSA understands that Harvard continues to engage in race discrimination,

Two people are seriously injured, including a child, with four people “very ill in hospital” after a car was driven into crowds at a Liverpool football victory parade, the city mayor says.
Police revealed the ethnicity of the suspect in a car-ramming of a crowd with “unprecedented” speed in a move that has been perceived as a correction after sitting on that information was blamed for feeding widespread unrest leading to riots after a mass-stabbing of children last summer. As it is, Monday’s incident is not being treated as terrorism, police are stated to believe, and the driver who propelled his automobile into crowds is reported

Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government could lose nearly 60% of its student body if the Trump administration’s attempted ban on international enrollment, temporarily blocked by a judge, takes effect.
As at many Harvard schools, campus life at the Kennedy School has been hijacked by anti-Israel activists. Last week, a federal judge blocked President Donald Trump from denying Harvard the ability to enroll students on foreign visas. But the administration made clear it intends to stop Harvard from being able to enroll foreigners if it continues to defy the president’s demands that it fight antisemitism and reform its “woke” curriculum and administrative practices.
The Harvard Crimson reported on the potential impact:

Donald Trump dodged a bullet in July ’24 when he turned his head ever so slightly and survived a sniper’s assassination attempt.
America dodged a bullet when Joe Biden ended his reelection campaign in July of that same year. (We also dodged one when Kamala Harris lost the election in November, but that’s another story.)
Although RedState reported literally for years that Joe was a shell of his former self—and his former self wasn’t all that great to begin with—the Biden administration along with their corrupt cohorts in the mainstream media lied,

Democrats continue to implode, and now there's one Democrat who is calling them out.
On Sunday, on CNN's "State of the Union," Jake Tapper spoke with Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Co), who is retiring to run for governor. Tapper said that given Bennet was doing it in part because of his frustration with Congress and "frankly, with Democratic leadership," and "given the Democratic Party's record low popularity now," does the Democratic brand help him or hurt him?
Wow, Tapper went there.
Bennet's response was not good for the Democrats. “I don’t think nationally the Democratic brand helps very much anyway...anywhere,” Bennet replied. Oof, so true.

A 53-year-old man was detained Monday after he allegedly drove a vehicle into a crowd at the Liverpool Football Club trophy parade in Liverpool, England, injuring over two dozen people.
Police were called to the scene in the city center, more than 200 miles northwest of London, at about 1 p.m. ET (6 p.m. local time) following reports of a car colliding with "a number of pedestrians," the Merseyside Police initially said on social media. A 53-year-old White British man from the Liverpool area was arrested shortly after the incident, according to Assistant Chief Constable Jennifer Sims.
