• Trump and Mike Johnson are plotting for House Republicans to somehow “overturn” Trump’s convictions in the Stormy Daniels Election Interference trial.
• That was what they were SUPPOSED to talk about when Trump met with the House GOP yesterday but amid all the threats and terrorism and dictatorship and violence we forget that at his core, Trump is a moron. Whether he and Johnson actually got around to conceive some extra-constitutional scheme to enact ex post facto measure, before or after the election, who knows. All we do know is that Trump wound up insulting and enrages Milwaukee, a month and a day before the Republican Convention is supposed to open there.
• The blowback was a welcome respite. Three different Wisconsin Congressmen made up four different excuses for Trump calling Milwaukee “horrible.” One of them, Bryan Steil, first said Trump said no such thing, then in a local TV interview contradicted himself and said Trump did say it, but was referring to “specific things.”
• The upshot of all of this — and Trump’s word salads — and Trump’s manic blinking at his news conference where he couldn’t handle any questions — is the ever-increasingly obvious reality that Trump is currently losing his mind. And that means for all its bravado and fealty the Republican Party is shackled to a corpse.

• THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Rishi Sunak explains he grew up deprived because he didn’t have the British equivalent of HBO. The downward spiral of ex-human being Mark Penn gets worse. And Lauren Boebert is caught vaping in public again and you know WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME!

• FRIDAYS WITH THURBER: For the first time, a chapter from Thurber’s only non-fiction book The Years With Ross. It includes a quote from a New Yorker Magazine writer that to me is one of the five or ten greatest things uttered by anybody in the history of the world.
