Marjorie Taylor Greene held a town hall this week that only took minutes to go completely off the rails. She ordered the numerous police officers present to forcibly remove protestors, stopping throughout her lies to tell officers who to grab. At one point, according to reports, one of the people being forcibly removed was even tased by police officers.  According to new predictions from financial firms, the tourism "boycotts" taking place among foreign tourists avoiding the United States is projected to cost our economy roughly $90 BILLION this year. Foreign individuals are reluctant to come to the US due to Donald Trump's harsh policies and their general disdain for him, and now American businesses and citizens are going to be paying the price for that.  An immigration lawyer in Massachusetts, who is a natural-born citizen of the United States, received a letter from Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security demanding that she "self-deport" within the next 7 days or she would be forcibly removed from the country. The letter was obviously sent by mistake, the lawyer believes, but she cautioned that mistakes like this can be considered proof that people who are NOT at risk of being deported are also getting these letters.  Executives at Warner Bros. were contacted by a member of "Trump's orbit" and offered a way to get on, and remain on, Donald Trump's good side. According to the reports, the executives were told that Donald Trump, Jr. wanted to host a hunting show on the Discovery Channel, and giving him the show would be a great way to keep Trump happy and off of their backs. The administration is now abusing their power to force Trump's idiot son onto our televisions Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!

During a back and forth with reporters for his meeting with the president of El Salvador, Donald Trump proved what a low class piece of trash he really is. He did this not only by slandering the man that he wrongfully deported, but also when he viciously attacked CNN reporter Kaitlin Collins. The man has no class at all, yet he likes to pretend that he does by surrounding himself with gold, which was also on display during the meeting.  Republican Senator, and Trump ally, John Kennedy from Louisiana admitted during an interview on CNN this week that he has no idea why Donald Trump is hellbent on enacting his tariff policy because Trump has no idea why he's hellbent on it. This is the first time that a sitting Republican has admitted that Trump is operating without a rudder, and it could be an indication that more Republicans are losing faith in him. European officials travelling to the United States have been instructed to use burner phones for communicating during their trips in order to avoid Donald Trump spying on them. This is the same procedure they use for traveling to countries like Russia and China because they don't trust the government, and now the US has been put on the same level thanks to Trump. Our allies no longer have any faith or trust in us. The Constitutional crisis that many of us had feared is officially here. The Trump administration has made it clear that they are going to continue to defy an order from the US Supreme Court, which means that the system of checks and balances put in place by the Constitution have been thrown away. There's not much that can actually be done about this, but that doesn't mean there's nothing that can be done. The unfortunate thing is that the one remedy is one that is almost impossible to use.

Donald Trump's physical results have left many people scratching their heads, as the doctor said that he is in perfect health in every possible way. But when you actually look at the report, it becomes obvious that Trump is a man that is on borrowed time, as the medications that he's taking are likely preventing a massive health event that could be his last.  Donald Trump had an absolutely unhinged meltdown watching 60 Minutes on CBS on Sunday evening, and he demanded that the network lose their license. What set him off was the fact that the program did an interview with Ukranian president Volodymyr Zelensky, as well as a segment about Greenland not wanting to be part of the United States. Trump couldn't take it, so he got on Truth Social and proved to the world that he's a fascist dictator.  A recent segment on MSNBC suggested that the United States is going to be the next entity that Donald Trump sends into bankruptcy. That could definitely happen, and if you look at his business track record it should have been completely expected. Trump has more failed businesses and bankruptcies than most people realize, and it is only natural that he would bring that same failed mentality to the White House.  According to new reports, the people inside of Donald Trump's White House are just as confused as the rest of the public about what he is doing and why he is doing it. Insiders have admitted that they don't even know what his "endgame" is at this point with his economic policies, and that's a bad sign. If they don't know why he is doing what he's doing, then neither does he, because he is always very vocal about everything. Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!

The US bond market began to crash this week in response to Donald Trump's tariffs, which is likely the reason that he decided to pause most of them for now. But the collapsing bond market also means something else - it means that Marjorie Taylor Greene's stock selloff and bond buying ended up backfiring on her. She moved her money out of the stock market just days before Trump crashed it (a quasi, though legal, insider trading scheme) and still ended up losing a lot of money. One of the lead supervisors for Secretary of State Marco Rubio's security detail was arrested recently in Brussels, Belgium after becoming belligerent with hotel staff and eventually fighting police officers. Rubio was not present for the incident, as the detail was checking security and location before Rubio arrived a few days later. But the incident shows just how terrible every person in this administration is - from the well-known people to the staffers, everyone is just the worst of the worst. Things were looking great for Newsmax for quite a while after a successful IPO and their owner becoming an instant billionaire. But they came crashing down off that high this week when a judge in Delaware determined that the network DID defame voting machine company Dominion following the 2020 election. The case is now scheduled to go to trial where the jury's work has been made pretty easy following the judge's decision this week. Donald Trump's on-again, off-again trade war sent markets into a tailspin followed by a small correction this week, and none of this is doing anything to ease the lingering fears of investors. In fact, according to one financial research firm, many fund managers have openly pondered whether or not Trump might be literally insane. That is a very fair question, as he seems to have no rationale or logic behind any of his moves and he doesn't seem to care about the damage that he's causing to the global economy.  Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!

Billionaires across the country are starting to express buyer's remorse for putting Donald Trump back in power. These billionaires are now watching as their fortunes disappear thanks to Trump's backwards trade policies, and they are now speaking out about how horrible this has been for them. But they can't feign ignorance on this one - Trump made it clear that this was exactly what he was going to do during the campaign. Donald Trump isn't immune from his own horrible policies, and his crashing of the stock market has now cost him half a billion dollars. In the past week, Trump saw his own net worth plummet by $500 million as the stock value of his Trump Media and Technology Group bottomed out, along with most of the stock market. He would rather lose millions than admit that he's wrong, which is quite shocking.  Elon Musk's team at DOGE has been using AI to spy on government workers to make sure that everyone employed in the federal government is sufficiently loyal to Donald Trump. The fact that they are using unproven and easily fooled software is actually the least important part of the story - the fact that government employees are no longer allowed to have personal opinions is what really matters. The thought police are active. The European Union has announced some minor reciprocal tariffs on the United States, but for the most part they are just sitting back and laughing at the "stupidity" of Donald Trump tanking the entire US economy. Reports suggest that EU countries are "sharpening their knives" as they wait for the US to become so insolvent that they can take over major trade agreements and business ventures, taking away the main source of vitality for the United States.
