So, Trump spends his time asking Grok what he should do? This is scarier than one could have imagined. Maybe some similarities to ancient Roman and Greek rulers who asked oracles when to start wars and persecute people.

I don't know if I could be so calm after JD Vance essentially told Senate candidate Angie Nixon to go back to Africa. But, really, calling him "the most ordinary man imaginable" is almost literary. Shade that matches his stupidity.

So, ads which asks people to join Trump in his “final battle” to “demolish the deep state” and “expel the warmongers from our government” is just a normal public service spot, according to Carr. The same Carr who thinks Jimmy Kimmel should be fired because his jokes are too partisan.

To speed up mass deportations, the Trump administration didn't just launch raids—it stripped $200M+ from nonprofit legal aid groups, bringing them to the brink of collapse. Here’s how immigrant legal defense barely survived the campaign to kneecap them:

First Trump came for immigrants. Then he came for their lawyers.

How legal aid groups survived the administration's attacks—barely.

I know this is hard to believe. But Trump doesn't understand energy markets. And diesel is a joint product with gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, all derived from the same barrel of crude oil. Trump's ban will not have the intended impact and could increase gas prices as well as the price of diesel.
