A group of psychiatrists and mental health professionals published an op-ed in The Hill, arguing that Trump exhibits a "reality-untethered, increasingly dangerous decline.” They pointed to late-night communications, intense fixations on political enemies and a recent expletive-filled Oval Office tirade regarding Iran as signs of emotional instability or age-related cognitive changes. Recent viral clips of Trump mishearing reporters aboard Air Force One have further fueled the

“Trump targets Abdul El-Sayed's wife in racist Truth Social frenzy The president stayed up late posting again and singled out the wife of newly anointed Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, posting a picture of El-Sayed and his wife, who wears a hijab, next to a picture of himself and Melania, with the caption "two Very Different America's" [sic]. El-Sayed was asked about the racist post by Jake Tapper this morning, and the clever physician completely flipped the script on him. "

In August 2024, candidate Donald Trump told a rally crowd that Joe Biden was "using the strategic reserves, which is meant for military, which is meant for war," and pledged that "We have to fill up the strategic reserves immediately." Two years later, with the United States locked in a protracted conflict with Iran, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is doing the opposite of filling up. According to figures circulated by Geiger Capital and Hedgeye, the SPR has fallen roughly 25

Trump supporters say, "We suffered 8 years under Barack Obama." Fair enough. Let’s take a look. The day Obama took office, the Dow closed at 7,949 points. Eight years later, the Dow had almost tripled. General Motors and Chrysler were on the brink of bankruptcy, with Ford not far behind, and their failure, along with their supply chains, would have meant the loss of millions of jobs. Obama pushed through a controversial $80 billion bailout to save the car industry. The U.S. c

To remind you, here’s what Trump said on “Meet the Press” that aired on June 7: “The [2020] election was rigged. It was a dirty election … And it’s happening again right now in California…. they’re cheating on the election. … they’re crooked…. You know that these elections are rigged. … Your elections in this country … are like a third world country.
