What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?

If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?

If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?

It's a tax. That's all it is.

You’ve either all lost your minds or your just ignorant. Bad Bunny is an American citizen and a patriot of what makes us great. Unlike you. Unlike Bezos. Resign in shame.

With Kid Rock headlining the MAGA half time show, is Kristi Noem the lead sharpshooter for the Puppy Bowl?

I only got to act with her once - on Waiting for Guffman in 1996 - but she was brilliant and a joy, of course.

How is it that one of the most divisive individuals ever to occupy the Oval Office has somehow managed to unite the entire world against us?

Your coverage of the ICE murder has been soft pedaled so far and now you’re pushing this bs out there? Do better. We need you.

Screenshot of an X.com post by Gavin Newsom (@GavinN…) with text: β€œCensoring books. Rewriting history. Attacking independent institutions. Using military force against American citizens. This is what authoritarianism looks like. Wake up.” Below is a video thumbnail of Newsom speaking at the World Economic Forum with a blue WEF backdrop.

Are we paying attention yet, America?

Heartbreaking news from Kenya. The Mighty Craig has fallen. 54 years old, the gentle giant has died of natural causes. Every moment with him was a blessing.

The β€œnewly discovered” Epstein archive contains 5 million more pages than the GOP healthcare plan.

A beautiful night on the river. One of these photos is looking forward and one is looking backwards. Or it’s the other way around. Which way should we be looking?

The first half of your life, no matter how stellar, is not the sole mark of timeless respect. She failed the second half terribly.
