Gelatinous Trump delivers NUTTY casino speech
Donald Trump’s speech in Las Vegas was chaotic, claiming other countries are sending prisoners to the U.S. and praising tariffs as a solution to eliminate taxes. He defended pardoning the January 6th rioters, calling them political prisoners. Despite the disjointed nature of the speech, his supporters cheered enthusiastically at every line, showing his enduring influence.
Trump BODIED by Gavin Newsom on airport runway
Gavin Newsom visibly dominated Donald Trump in a handshake exchange, undercutting Trump’s image as a tough and unshakable leader. Following the interaction, Trump stumbled awkwardly and delivered bizarre comments about “soaking wet” trees and forest management. While the exchange likely won’t affect policy, it undermines one of Trump’s core appeals to his supporters.

Elizabeth Warren taunts Elon Musk over DOGE
Elizabeth Warren sent Elon Musk a 21-page letter offering $2 trillion in savings over a decade, focusing on closing tax loopholes, funding the IRS, and renegotiating overpriced defense contracts. While Warren's proposals are serious and solutions-driven, Musk’s lack of interest highlights his focus on cutting government spending that favors Republicans and the corporate elite.

"Law and order" Boebert offering rioters tours of the Capitol
Representative Lauren Boebert’s support for January 6th insurrectionists highlights the hypocrisy of Republican rhetoric on law enforcement. Boebert visited the D.C. jail, spoke with the families of convicted rioters, and even offered Capitol tours upon their release—ignoring the violence these individuals inflicted on police and the nation’s democracy. Her actions reveal how some Republicans excuse and enable violence when it aligns with their political goals.

He promised to be a dictator on Day 1, and not only is he keeping that promise but (as we knew), the dictatorial behavior will continue forever. Each day he will announce some horrible change that will not only ruin our country but the entire world. I still can't believe that he is the president.
Each day when I get up, I feel so depressed. (It's a clinical depression brought on by the bipolar disorder. I have no control.)
