When our grand dog Bennett can’t find anyone to play fetch, he plays a game he created that we call Lifeguard! He INTENTIONALLY knocks the ball into the water and runs around frantically declaring an emergency. Then he finally jumps in and rescues the ball. Over and over again.

@Acyn Wait, how does the US government offset the cost of the ballroom with “customs fees” when the Supreme Court is forcing Trump to reimburse businesses for $166-$175 billion in illegal tariffs? You can’t spend the money twice!

Lindsey Graham says they are going introduce legislation that’s going to authorize 400 million dollars to be spent on building the ballroom: We pay for it by offsetting it with customs fees. The sooner we get the ballroom built, the better it is for the country.

@danpfeiffer @Acyn When Watters says you could host a Kid Rock concert in Trump’s ballroom, all that tells me is the room is really small.

@gelliottmorris @LarrySabato Trump has a remarkable record of alienating nearly every demographic group through his actions — from rural voters (Medicaid cuts) to veterans (VA cuts) to Hispanics (ICE actions and rhetoric) to anti-war MAGA voters (war in Iran). It’s as if he placed a bet against himself! 🤔

Kudlow: The US will control The Persian Gulf, which probably should be The Arabian Gulf or The Trump Gulf.

@business This makes me wonder if Trump’s son-in-law Jared has ever wagered against the success of Trump’s political and economic moves.

This nation does not need a thug in the pulpit. Not in the White House, on the news, or in a place of worship. I’m glad to see Tucker Carlson apologize. He should. He was complicit. At least he will be able to speak the truth to his children and grandchildren.

Tucker Carlson: I’ll be tormented for a long time by the fact that I played a role in getting Donald Trump elected. We’re implicated in this. I misled people.

@JoshKraushaar This is why Trump is one of the most anti-business presidents in U.S. history. Companies — both large and small — need a stable business environment before they make investments and hire workers. Presidents who create uncertainty fail as leaders.

David Ignatius: "Given the stakes, you’d think that Trump would want de-escalation. But that’s not the way he operates. He likes disorder and destabilization — and seems ready to keep extending the state of uncertainty" washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/…

@morgfair @Shaunoon I agree that he’ll die — in fact, many will die — if coal ever leads the world in global electricity production.

@Acosta @rumpfshaker “Verge of Collapse” is not only a great name for a rock band, it would also be a fitting slogan for the rest of Trump’s presidency.

Megyn Kelly: "Axios reporting today that Trump is bored of this war and wants it over — whatever. Maybe it wasn't the best thing to start if you didn't have the patience to actually see it through…Trump has moved on to other things because he has the attention span of a gnat."

@YpsiGal @woff253 At least we have leaders in our defense and intelligence agencies that take a results-driven, sober approach to . . er . . uh . . a RESULTS-DRIVEN approach to their work!

@DavidAFrench @NormOrnstein Ten years ago this month — on Easter Sunday — Paula White peddled “resurrection seeds” to followers for the bargain price of $1,144. If you think that sounds a little steep, keep in mind that White reported during her broadcast that the price was set by God Himself.

This is absolute nonsense (by this reasoning any time you fight against a president you're fighting against the plan of God), but it's also dangerous nonsense. Trump is plainly absorbing the idea that God's on his side -- and he already had a grandiose sense of self.
Headquarters@HQNewsNow

Trump's White House Faith Office advisor Paula White: Trump has been raised up by God because God says that he raises up people and places them in positions of authority. It is God that raises up a king. When you fight against the plan of God you're fighting against the hand of God

@MikeHudema @Shaunoon When we visited Nosara, Costa Rico, several years ago they were in the midst of a campaign to encourage people to report homes that weren’t managing sewage properly. They gave us a bumper sticker that said “NO SHIT, NOSARA!”
