The way this is being handled is revolting. Bypassing all regulatory agencies to build this is wrong. Building a structure that dwarfs the executive mansion is grotesque.

Of course his only remarks would be about a useless holiday with bad syntax. It's deep seeded racism and an ignorance of basic grammar.

Trump order targets transgender troops and ‘radical gender ideology’
The president’s executive order took aim at transgender individuals in personal terms, noting that physical and mental health conditions make them “incompatible” with military service.

How the oil industry and growing political divides turned climate change into a partisan issue
The climate policy pendulum is swinging back again with Trump in office. Money, lobbying and talking about red vs. blue states all play a role in the political and public divide.

Hegseth refuses to answer if he supports the use of active duty military in US detention camps.
Fairly confident we ALL know the answer.

Congratulations to the seniors who voted for the Cheeto! Your Rx drug prices are going to go up. Trump rescinded Biden's order 14087 that brought Rx prices down for Medicare/ Medicaid recipients. Drugs that were capped at $2? Not any more! The admin obviously didn't care about your limited income.

Get ready folks, starting February 1, your produce prices are going to be 25% higher! Mexico is the primary provider of produce in the US. Tariffs are going to make all produce cost more.

Presidents should not be allowed to pardon people they egged on into committing their crimes. It's not forgiveness, it's lawlessness.

It is terrifying that the man who our new president seems to most trust as an advisor just gave a Nazi salute at the inauguration on MLK day.
