The top lawmaker refuses to use a Trump-endorsed move to overcome a Democratic filibuster, likely putting a final coffin in the measure.

He’s going to declare victory and leave.

The split within Trump's voting base over Iran is very real.

Media figures whose income depends on agreeing with dear leader are still onboard publicly, but at the grassroots level, the tentative Trump voter is not into foreign wars and deporting their honest neighbors.

RFK Jr.’s Junk Science Diet His MAHA ideas about food are built on some of the same lies as his antivax campaign.

"RFK Jr. is wrong on vaccines but right about food" is being quite too kind.

It sounds more plausible that a bunch of rich pricks like musk bought a bunch of cheap drones and will use those to attack locations in California that they despised just to make a point for Trump.

Of Trump the Chump is saying it, you KNOW that it’s a LIE and to believe the opposite!

America Is Winning the War It Isn't Fighting in Iran Donald Trump and the Pentagon don't seem to have a plan for the war in Iran, which hasn't kept them from claiming they're executing it to perfection.
