Mary Trump: “Donald never actually made any money in his life. He inherited a lot of money. Lost a lot of money. And has since figured out how to leverage the power of the presidency to grift. He was never a billionaire until now. Nobody should use the power of the presidency to enrich themselves.

Holy shit! Sen. Peters had enough of Hegseth’s bullshit. Imagine asking taxpayers for billions more during an “utter and complete failure” of a war. When Hegseth couldn’t defend it, he acted like criticizing the strategy was insulting the troops. Peters called him out.

Time to summon the Brits for another bonfire—this time, no one would dream of stopping them. What an embarrassing, gold-leafed monstrosity. It’s already a national punchline, just like the current resident. How much more Mar-a-Lago tack can one man slap on the White House?

"Barack, you gotta look at me." At the grand opening ceremony of the Obama Presidential Center, former First Lady Michelle Obama delivered a speech that brought the former president to tears. This is love. Love of husband, love of a president, love of a country.

Michelle Obama to Barack: "How absurd it is to even imagine that you might have buckled under the pressure even once. Lashed out in frustration. Lost your temper. How absurd it is to imagine that you might have done anything but make our family and this entire country proud."

Obama: I am not immune to anger or doubt. But I do know this when we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing that voting matters… we open the door to the most ruthless or the most careless, or the most fearful among us who see some groups and some people as more equal than others
