Trump just boasted about how the stock market took off “like a rocket” after he won, specifically the S&P 500. It was at 5,853 in late October. It’s at 5,935 now. It was at about 3,800 when Biden took office. Facts just don’t matter to his supporters, though, so he can just say whatever he wants.

Mayor Brandon Johnson's $17.1 Chicago budget passed in a 27-23 vote.
The 2025 budget largely avoids spending cuts while also not raising property taxes — despite Johnson's initial plan to hike them $300 million — while passing with one of the slimmest margins in decades.
