There are so many penalties imposed by society for being the kind of person who drives a Cybertruck.

- You’re fined $80,000

- You have to drive a Cybertruck

- Everyone sees you driving a Cybertruck

- The word “Cybertruck” is a central part of your life

- You become That Cybertruck Person

This is the only photograph of a First Lady that matters when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein.

Depose Melania.

Opinion | In Minneapolis, I Glimpsed a Civil War

I went to Minneapolis last week. What I saw was horrifying and inspiring in equal measure. Gift link to my latest column: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/o...

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families.

The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

So lemme get this straight. You are eliminating the tariffs on tropical fruits, coffee and beef to lower prices since you took the mantel of the "affordability" President today.
I'm a little confused, though. If tariffs weren't paid for by me, then how is eliminating them saving me money? Ill wait.

Ghislaine Maxwell has been barred from participating in service dog training while in prison because of her crimes.

I feel like if prison officials don't trust you around dogs, you shouldn't be eligible for a pardon under any circumstances.

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.

I just got a report that the Minneapolis VA has stopped hiring workers thanks to a hasty Trump Executive Order.

They’ve rescinded offers to dozens of people who were going to fill critical roles to care for vets.

Trump Vows to Deport U.S. Citizens in New Immigration Policy He echoed the words of his incoming “border czar,” who first suggested the idea in October.

It’s going to be a very long four years if you get wound up about everything out of Trump’s mouth.
