Trump lobs incredibly weird attack…at Republicans
The disgraced ex-president rambled through a long list of teleprompted grievances with the GOP, taking random pot shots at Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, and Bill Barr, before weirdly complaining that Republicans "eat their young." Not sure what the 77-year-old, serially indicted con man is referring to, but sure, let's continue talking about cognitive decline among presidential candidates. We like our chances.

VIDEO OF THE DAY: Democrats score huge victory in Wisconsin

Conspiracy-fueled pro-Trump "Epoch Times" now 4th largest newspaper in America
The right-wing, propaganda-spewing "news" outlet run by Li Hongzhi, an ultra-conservative grifter who rejects modern science and medicine, denounces homosexuality and feminism, and — why not — claims to possess supernatural powers, has amassed a staggering fortune, growing its revenue by 685% in two years, because nothing means anything anymore and the truth is obviously a moving target.

RFK Jr. raised — and spent — a lot of money last quarter
The conspiracy theory enthusiast and virulent anti-vaxxer raised nearly $9 million and burned through more than $7 million over the past three months, his last quarter as a Democratic Party primary challenger.

Israeli president suggests that civilians in Gaza are legitimate targets
Israeli President Isaac Herzog said on Friday that all citizens of Gaza are responsible for the attack Hamas perpetrated in Israel last weekend that left over 1,200 people dead. "It is an entire nation out there that is responsible," Herzog said. "It is not true this rhetoric about civilians not being aware, not involved. It’s absolutely not true. They could have risen up. They could have fought against that evil regime which took over Gaza in a coup d'etat." To be clearer than polished crystal, CIVILIANS 👏 ARE 👏 NOT 👏 LEGITIMATE 👏 TARGETS 👏 in any conflict, and such reckless rhetoric should be forcefully denounced by all parties in the strongest possible terms.

US has seen increase in domestic threats since Hamas attacks in Israel, FBI says
FBI Director Christopher Wray acknowledged an increase in domestic threats due to the "heightened environment," calling for increased vigilance and requesting that police continue to share intelligence. "History has been witness to antisemitic and other forms of violent extremism for far too long," Wray said. "Whether that be from foreign terrorist organizations, or those inspired by them, or domestic violent extremists motivated by their own racial animus, the targeting of a community because of their faith is completely unacceptable."
