Pollster: Trump's net approval rating among voters under the age of 30 is going into a deep, dark black hole. Look at that, -46. That is a shift on the net approval of 56 points in the wrong direction since February. We almost never see drops this big, this quickly.

Leavitt, this week: "President Trump kicked him out because Jeffrey Epstein was a pedophile and he was a creep."

Trump, asked in 2019 if he had “any suspicions” that Epstein was molesting underage women: "No, I had no idea. I had no idea."

Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows

The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

One of the delights of working for the Voice of America in the Cohen Federal Building was the New Deal era frescoes and murals. Along with VOA and its staff, it now appears these treasured American works of art are to be a DOGE casualty. newrepublic.com/article/20120... #SaveVOA
There Was a Plan to Save These New Deal Masterpieces. Then Trump Won.
A feasibility study was underway about restoring the ailing federal building that houses important Ben Shahn frescoes, Philip Guston murals, and other FDR-era artwork. But the Trump administration put a stop to it.

The Trump administration has vowed to go after anyone who got lower mortgage rates by claiming more than one primary residence on their loan papers.

But if administration officials continue the campaign, mortgage records show there’s another place they could look: Trump’s own Cabinet.

Trump political stunt to rename DOD as Dept of War. Shallow belligerency. Simplistic. Another bizarre signal to the international community.
Only someone who avoided the draft would want to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War.

Everybody rational understands that Putin is trying to rebuild the old Russian Empire. And Donald Trump is literally handing it to him.
