I can think of no clearer sign that Trump and his oligarchs have achieved control of the American media than Trump's planned appearance at the WH Correspondents Dinner.
Since 2017, Trump only does friendly audiences.
The #TrumpCrimeFamily corruption is right out in the open

Congress members join protest against ‘oligarch’s dinner’ for Trump thrown by Ellisons

Maybe hiring a guy who literally sells memberships to his private club, where he DJs and does wedding toasts, would have made it obvious he is very pay-for-access oriented.
The #MAGA revolution is eating its own.
No loss of this top military chief who is "...a civilian who had not previously served in the military, was sworn in as Secretary of the Navy in March 2025 after being nominated by President Donald Trump... The businessman was a major donor to Trump's campaign."

Who knew? Trump's constant talking, waffling and lying is bad for negotiations.

‘He talks too much’: how Trump’s erratic commentary is the real block to an Iran deal
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/21/trump-one-man-whatsapp-group-diplomacy-derailing-peace-talks
Seven weeks into the US war on #Iran and it's Trump now holding the world economy hostage as a pressure tactic.
Once again, Trump has ignored international law and failed to think thru his actions.

U.S. Has Turned Back 27 Ships Since Strait of Hormuz Blockade Started https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/20/us/politics/military-blockade-iran-strait-hormuz.html
3000 authoritarian-like acts is quite a feat in barely 800 days.
All the more impressive given the huge amount of time dedicated to golf.
A dynamic 100% plainly obvious when watching Trump.
1. Create a crisis (calling it "leverage")
2. Wait for others to offer tribute
3. Take a cut of the tribute and grow in power
4. Repeat until dictator or in prison
The pattern is obvious in Iran, tariff policy, shakedowns of universities and law firms.

Sure, aim for impeachment.
But it is absolutely critical that Dems retake the Senate. Only then can they we protect the SCOTUS (and any judicial and Cabinet appointments) from the #AmericanClownEmperor.
Trump's explanation of his "Jesus meme" is essentially... I'm an idiot.
Walz was right. These people are weird. Weird and weak.
