If another country suspects that Americans have drugs on their boat are they allowed to blow it up and kill everyone too, or are only we allowed to do that?

The President isn't fooling most Americans: he is actively making life in this country more expensive.

They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a “weapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.

Beer is more expensive because of Donald Trump's tariffs.

STEWART: “So just to be clear - Trump is on the brink of war with Iran to either obliterate the nuclear program he previously ‘obliterated’, or to force them into signing a deal like the one HE PULLED OUT OF — it’s all in Chapter 9 of Art of the Deal: Eating Your Own Asshole.”

Busy days ahead for our new Fraud Czar, JD Vance.

In tonight's speech, the president did what he does best: celebrate himself. But if anyone was looking for leadership focused on easing their current economic pain, he made clear that they'll need to look elsewhere.

Reuters: FEDEX SUES UNITED STATES TO GET FULL REFUND OF EMERGENCY TARIFFS AFTER SUPREME COURT FOUND PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP HAD NO AUTHORITY TO IMPOSE THEM, LAWSUIT SAYS

Former ICE agent: My first day training new cadets, I received secretive orders to teach them to violate the Constitution by entering homes without a warrant. I watched ICE cut classes that teach our legal system, firearms training, use of force, lawful arrests, and the limits of officers' authority

One of the first things we were taught at Quantico was that there is never a moment in which you are not representing the Bureau; but, then again, we earned our place there, and weren’t granted its directorship as a sinecure for partisan malfeasance and a willingness to disregard the constitution.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered.

Bash: "What the Supreme Court said is that it is not the executive's function to do these tariffs. It needs to go through Congress, and that is what the Constitution says."

Bessent: "That is not correct."

I don’t wanna start nothing but didn’t Trump cancel a deal with Iran on the whole nuclear weapons thing? I feel like he’s probably managed to erase this from popular memory

Don't worry, everyone, Secretary of Transportation and MTV Real World Cast Member Sean Duffy is going to sort all this out.

I bet he'll give a speech talking about how we should make sure our shoes are shined before boarding our flights.

Trump's plan B to impose new tariffs is also illegal because a balance-of-payments deficit doesn't exist, trade experts say By Jason Ma Weekend Editor February 21, 2026, 1:02 PM ET Add us on G

Whoops!

"Economist Alan Reynolds, a senior fellow at the Cato Institute, pointed out that the trade deficit is fully funded by the capital account surplus, adding that there is no overall balance-of-payments deficit to justify Trump’s newest tax on imports"

The average household lost more than $1,000 to Trump's tariffs.

Now the Court has spoken: this was unlawful all along.

The President owes you an apology - and a refund.

Trump arbitrarily raising global tariffs to 15% in a fit of rage, while maliciously refusing to refund private businesses that did nothing other than get illegally taxed by him, is another sign that right wing nationalism is getting utterly discredited in real time.

“You're thinking of the $175 billion in tariff money all wrong. As if I had the money back in a safe. The money's not here. Your money's in the White House ballroom, the renaming of the Department of Defense, the $10 billion transfer to the Board of Peace, and a hundred other unauthorized actions.”
