Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for$15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made$15 bills. But it turns out, that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch. Up-round payment of$45 for three months,$90 for six months, or$180 for 12-month plan required. $15 per month equivalent. Taxes and fees extra. Initial plan term only. Greater than 50 gigabytes. May slow when network is busy. See terms. Summer's supposed to be the easy season.

Donald Trump just got loudly booed and berated in Washington, D.C. He went to a restaurant called Joe's Seafood and brought the media to what was announced as an undisclosed location. It turned out to be Joe's Seafood, which is just about a block or so from the White House.
3:46Ben Meiselas:So that Donald Trump can show that he was leaving the White House to see what the restaurants look like. Well, when he showed up inside the restaurant, there were people booing him. They were calling him the modern day Hitler. Watch what happens as Donald Trump walks inside that restaurant, Joe's Seafood. Play this clip. Free DC, free policy.
4:12Trump is the Hitler of our God.
4:23Ben Meiselas:Then before Donald Trump got into the restaurant, he was being booed outside by people in Washington, D.C., who detest Trump's military occupation of their beloved city. Here play this clip.
4:50Ben Meiselas:So as I mentioned, the press weren't told where they were going. They were loaded into motorcade to undisclosed location. Donald Trump was about three and a half to four hours late for a press conference that was supposed to take place earlier. Then one of the things that we learned was that Russian drones were over Poland, which would clearly seem to trigger NATO's Article 5. And as I'm recording this, by all accounts, Russia is sending drones to attack Poland right now. and the NATO has been activated. Donald Trump doesn't mention that. And this is when Donald Trump decided to go to the restaurant, which is incredibly odd.
5:37Ben Meiselas:Our editor-in-chief, Ron Filipkowski, writes, he was called out by a reporter this week about never having gone out to dinner in D.C. despite extensive knowledge, he claims, about the restaurant scene in town undergoing a renaissance because of him. So here he is bravely venturing across the street to see the town because Joe Seabood is literally like a block away. Donald Trump was asked some questions during and after the booing. He was asked about the Epstein letter and he goes, that's not my signature. That's not the way I speak. Sure, Donald, you horrific fraud, you. Here, play this clip. Thank you.
6:16Thank you. Enjoy it.
6:22My signature. And it's not the way I speak. And anybody that's covered me for a long time. No, that's not my language. It's nonsense. And frankly, you're wasting your time. All you do is trying to get off the great success of D.C. and about 200 other things we've done that are so successful.
6:39Ben Meiselas:Then Donald Trump was asked if he will be meeting with the Epstein victims, to which he says, I've never even thought about that. It's one of the big problems. You've never thought about the victims. You've re-victimized them. You've traumatized them while giving Ghislaine Maxwell, one of your former best friends, immunity and moving her from a maximum security facility in Tallahassee to a minimum security facility in Camp Bryan, Texas. But here's what he says. Let's play it.
7:10I don't know about nobody suggested, but certainly, certainly I don't like that whole situation with respect to anybody being abused or hurt, but I haven't even thought about that. Thank you all very much. Have a good time. Thank you.
7:26Ben Meiselas:With interest rates expected to drop, you could save a ton on everything you finance. That's great news, right?

Average point changes are based on historical data. Individual results may vary and are not guaranteed. Then Donald Trump was asked about the Israeli airstrike in Doha, Qatar. That's the capital of Qatar. Israel said that they were striking Hamas there, but they hit a residential area in Qatar and Qatar was unaware that this was going to take place. And Israel didn't tell Donald Trump, but of course, Donald Trump enables Netanyahu to do whatever the hell he wants to do.
8:50Ben Meiselas:So here's what Donald Trump says about that. I'm not thrilled about it. He says, play this clip. We have a capital that's very, very safe right now. about the Israeli strike earlier today. Well, I'm not thrilled. I'm not thrilled about it. I don't have to do that. I'm just I'm not thrilled about the whole situation. It's not not a good situation. But I will say this. We want the hostages back, but we are not thrilled about the way that went down today. And then Donald Trump is asked if Israel told him in advance. So, you know, you're you're giving Israel all of these weapons. So rather than building hospitals here in the United States, rural hospitals, rural health care is being closed.
9:36Ben Meiselas:We're giving weapons in Israel for them to bomb hospitals in Gaza right now. Did they even give you a heads up about what they were doing in Doha, Donald? Here, play this clip. But we are not thrilled about the way that went down today.
9:55I'm never surprised by anything, especially when it comes to the Middle East. I'll be giving a full statement tomorrow, but I will tell you this. I was very unhappy about it, very unhappy about every aspect. And we got to get the hostages back. But I was very unhappy be about the way that went down.
10:18Ben Meiselas:And then Donald Trump, this is how he describes what's taking place in Ukraine and Poland right now. We have that one and we have Gaza going on. We want to get them both solved and ended. Well, Donald, Vladimir Putin's literally sent his drones into Poland right now. Poland. So much further, deeper, all the way to as far west of Ukraine than into Poland right now and NATO's activated. This is what you have to say. Here, play this clip. Happy about the way that went down. Mr. President, when you came to speak to him, I mean, you said soon. Is that going to happen this week? Yeah, it'll happen. We have that one and we have Gaza going on.
11:01We want to get them both solved and ended. So it's going to happen all this week? I think so. I think this week or early next week.
11:07Ben Meiselas:Thank you. Thank you. And then while Donald Trump is shutting down the four city blocks and the surrounding area, he says, we're very, very safe right now. Very safe. Here, play this clip. The chief and we all work together and the outcome is really spectacular. We have a capital that's very, very safe right now. Now, Republican Congress member Joe Wilson, While Donald Trump was at Joe's Seafood, Joe Wilson posts, Russia is attacking NATO ally Poland with Iranian Shahid drones less than a week after Trump hosted the president of Poland, Noraki, at the White House. This is an act of war, and we are grateful to NATO allies for their swift response to war criminal Putin's continued unprovoked aggression against free and productive nations.
12:01Ben Meiselas:I urge Trump respond with mandatory sanctions that will bankrupt the Russian war machine and arm Ukraine with weapons capable of striking Russia. Putin is no longer content just losing in Ukraine while bombing mothers and babies. He is now directly testing our resolve in NATO territory. Putin stated that Russia knows no borders. Free and prosperous nations will teach Russia about borders. Now, as some of these Intel websites are reporting, a notice to air man, a NOTAM as it's referred to, has now been issued for Warsaw International Airport, once again closing the airport for unplanned military activity related to ensuring state security.
12:49Ben Meiselas:This is not normal, even in the slightest, folks. Warsaw International Airport has closed, per the NOTAM, closed due to unplanned military activity. As this one observer writes, either Russia is purposefully testing NATO tonight or someone screwed up really badly. Seems clear they're purposely testing NATO. Looks like Poland and Moldova have come under Russian attack as well. Seems that Moldova may have been subject to some of these suicide drones as well. Just so you see here, several Polish NATO fighter jets heard tonight over Lublin in eastern Poland. Here, play this clip right here of that.
13:35Ben Meiselas:Let's play it.
13:48Ben Meiselas:And here is how it's being reported on Sky News. Ukraine's Air Force has warned that Russian drones have entered airspace over Poland, threatening the city of Zamosk in Poland. Play this clip. Breaking news that the Reuters news agency is quoting. They are quoting the Ukrainian Air Force in a telegram messaging app suggesting that Ukraine's Air Force is warning that Russian drones have entered the airspace of Poland, threatening the city of Zemosk. drones in Poland, the message said, heading west towards the city of Zemosk. The suggestion is that this is Garans, Iranian-made drones, some suggesting actually this is unconfirmed that five Garans were 20 kilometers deep into Polish airspace heading for the city of Zemosk.
14:42That is reported on social media. Reuters, though, just quoting Ukrainian Air Force, suggesting that drones, Russian drones, are in Poland heading west towards the city of Zemosk. Zemosk itself is northwest of the Ukrainian city of Lviv on the way to Warsaw. We will keep an eye on that incident, certainly.
15:02Ben Meiselas:While all of that's going on, Donald Trump getting booed at the restaurant. Here he is inside Joe's Seafood getting booed and heckled one more time. Let's play it.
