MS NOW's Jonathan Lemire struggled to make sense of President Donald Trump's latest weekend social media posting spree.

The 79-year-old president posted dozens of times across more than 12 hours Saturday, including a lengthy tirade against a federal judge and numerous AI-generated memes celebrating himself in fantastical scenarios, and the "Morning Joe" host attempted to describe the posts to viewers.

Conservative commentator and influencer Dave Rubin, who was recently branded as the “dumbest man on the internet” after a video compilation of his failed predictions went viral, was hounded by critics again Sunday night after failing to name a single metric that has improved under the Trump administration.

“What is one main metric that Donald Trump has made better off since he got an office?” Rubin was asked during a debate hosted by Jubilee Media and published online Sunday. “An example would be GDP, unemployment, inflation, et cetera.”

President Donald Trump just received an astounding rebuke from the legal community that reveals how much worse his second administration is compared to his first, according to two experts.

Attorneys Brian Kabateck and Shant Karnikian discussed a recent survey that found 94% of judges and lawyers believe the second Trump administration poses a greater threat to the rule of law than the first in a new episode of their podcast "Civil Action." Karnikian argued that the survey results were "astounding" and showed just how much Trump has eroded faith in America's institutions.

Sen. David McCormick (R-PA) accidentally said the word that the Trump administration would rather him not say during an interview on Fox News, and his attempt to cover it up astonished a political analyst.

McCormick appeared on the Fox News show "America's Newsroom," where he defended Trump's decision to start a war with Iran by arguing that it was "likely" that Iran would attack America during President Donald Trump's second term. During his answer, McCormick nearly described the Trump administration as a "regime," a word that, as liberal political analyst David Pakman noted in a new reaction video, is used to describe authoritarian governments, not democracies.

The "correct" view of President Donald Trump as an incompetent leader is gaining acceptance as his "bread and circuses" routine backfires, according to one author.

Kurt Andersen, co-founder of Spy Magazine, discussed Trump's sliding poll numbers during a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" on Sunday with host Joanna Coles, the outlet's chief content officer. Andersen argued that Trump once provided voters with an "entertaining" alternative to America's otherwise drab political scene, but his entertainment value has tanked as the cost-of-living crisis continues to erode household budgets.

A retired federal judge shaded President Donald Trump's attempt to muzzle federal workers by making them sign nondisclosure agreements during an interview on MS NOW's "The Weekend: Primetime."

Last week, the Office of Professional Management published a public notice of its intent to promulgate a rule prohibiting federal workers from publicly disclosing certain information. Shira Scheindlin, a former district judge in the Southern District of New York, told MS NOW's Catherine Rampell that the move serves no "legitimate purpose" other than to intimidate federal workers so that they don't become future whistleblowers.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was brutally mocked on Sunday after he made a strange claim during an interview on Fox News.

Paxton joined Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on "Sunday Morning Futures," where the two discussed Paxton's pending general election battle against Texas state Democratic lawmaker James Talarico to replace outgoing Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) in the Senate. During the interview, Paxton attempted to defend his scandal-ridden past, but onlookers heard a very different explanation from the one he thought he had offered the audience.

During an appearance Sunday on Fox News, comedian Rob Schneider morphed himself into his character from Adam Sandler’s 1998 film “The Waterboy” to attack Democrats and endorse a GOP mayoral candidate.

That candidate is Spencer Pratt, a registered Republican who is vying to become the next mayor of Los Angeles, California, and oust incumbent Mayor Karen Bass. Spencer has been fiercely promoted by right-wing figures, though remains several points behind Bass in recent polls.

GOP strategist David Urban, who in 2016 served as President Donald Trump’s senior campaign adviser, issued his former boss a harsh warning on Sunday, cautioning the president that he may soon face a wave of congressional subpoenas if he doesn’t dramatically shift course ahead of the midterm elections.

Appearing on CNN, Urban was responding to Trump’s remarks last week where he told reporters that he didn’t “care about the midterms” as it relates to his deeply unpopular war against Iran.

With President Donald Trump’s favorability at historically low levels as his policies continue to economically ravage Americans, GOP strategist Brad Todd issued the president a tight deadline to turn things around, or risk a devastating collapse of power.

Trump’s tariffs and his decision to launch a war against Iran have sent prices for a number of goods skyrocketing, leading to a considerable backlash from voters that has led analysts to predict a historically poor midterm election performance from the GOP.

Former Vice President Mike Pence broke with the Trump administration Sunday over the $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund, calling it a "deeply offensive" and a "bad idea" and urging the White House to abandon it entirely.

Pence made the remarks in an interview with NBC News' Meet the Press, where he said he would encourage the Trump administration to drop the fund, which is designed to compensate people who claim they were unfairly investigated or prosecuted by the government — including those who attacked police officers during the January 6, 2021 assault on the U.S. Capitol.
