Leavitt: If you heard it from the President of the United States… obviously it's true

The yield curve doesn’t like Trump either

Ukraine holds great cards. The best card is its strong desire for freedom, independence and basic human rights, all of which Russia is trying take away.

the stated goal of the iran war: prevent nuclear weapons, protect israel, regime change. what americans care about more: gas prices.

Stupidity isn’t mentioned either, but seems entrenched.

Zohran Mamdani is being heckled right now at a press conference in Brooklyn, NY, by someone whose words I can't hear, but watch how he's dealing with it. Mamdani has the unique skill of knowing how to handle and walk into every room and engage with people, no matter how toxic they are or how their feelings are against him. And many times, make them feel heard. Elected officials, nonprofit and religious leaders, advocates, and activists on both sides of the political spectrum who met with him told me that. Don't take my word for it, President Trump is pretty public about it. That's why he's currently the mayor of New York City. If you don't like his politics or you're like me, who opposed his candidacy and is still troubled by some of his actions and statements, then don't take this post the wrong way; read into it how you should be better to communicate your message. Yes, putting ego aside for any public figure is not easy.

Sen. John Kennedy admits on Fox News that the Republicans and Democrats reached a deal to fund TSA, but Trump said, “No. No deals with the Democrats.” Kennedy says, “It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week.” This is the Trump shutdown!

New: Iran has been laying traps and moving additional military personnel and air defenses to Kharg Island in recent weeks in preparation for a possible US operation to take control of the island, according to multiple people familiar with US intelligence reporting on the issue. Gulf allies are warning of significant US casualties if US moves fwd with an operation there & advising against it. with @ZcohenCNN @kylieatwood @talshalev1 cnn.com/2026/03/25/pol…

6:49am: sudden spike in oil futures trading. no news. no announcement. nothing public. 7:05am: trump announces a pause on iran strikes. markets move. someone knew. 16 minutes early. $580 million in contracts. the corruption is staggering.

Suspicious high-volume trades before major POTUS announcements have been a disturbing pattern during the Trump admin. Monday was no different as nearly half a billion $ in oil futures trading occurred irregularly just 15 minutes before Trump’s comments pointing to de-escalation in Iran. CC @FT

George W. Bush left office with a 32% approval rating. That was enough to cost Republicans two Prez elections, but more importantly left the party so weak that Trump was able to hijack it and turn it into something completely different. I want to see Trump at 32%. The Bush line.

🚨 Melania Trump this morning: Proposes an AI system—“Plato”—as a replacement for teachers. “Literature, art, science, mathematics, history… the entire corpus of knowledge… at home.” Replace teachers? With a machine? AI over teachers. That’s the idea. Instead of calling for better pay for our nation's educators/heroes. Sad day!

LMAO 🤣. This hour has 22 minutes strikes again ...

🚨 BREAKING: U.S. Secretary of Defense Hegseth: “Never in history has a country been defeated as Iran has… we wiped it off the face of the earth.” And we’re just supposed to… accept that? The internet is the greatest invention ever created. Because without it, history like this gets rewritten in real time.

Good morning MAGA, Both Trump-endorsed candidate's in Florida state's special election lost last night to Democrats. Two state seats flipped Democrat. One race was in a Palm Beach district that Donald Trump won by 11 points in 2024 where Mar-a-Lago is located. MAGA is dead.

PM Mark Carney on Air Canada CEO Michael Rousseau delivering a video address only in English: "I'm very disappointed, as others are, rightly so, in this unilingual message of the CEO...lack of judgement and a lack of compassion."

I don’t think people realize how much healthcare costs are driving big companies to fire and not hire. It costs them $30k per family, per year for premiums and care. Most of that goes to the massive, vertically integrated insurance companies that send weekly bills that no one reviews in details. And it doesn’t include the company overhead to deal with it all. It’s usually the 2nd largest expense after payroll. Which is insane It’s far easier to blame AI than it is to blame Healthcare costs. Want to increase jobs, wages and improve affordability for every American ? Break up the biggest insurance companies. Make divest non insurance companies. They don’t need thousands of subsidiaries. That’s how they game and abuse the system and increase costs for all of us. Call your senator and tell them to support the BreakUp Big Medicine Bill by @HawleyMO and @SenWarren.
