You all took Pax Americana for granted. China is going to have a lot of y’all outside of the U.S. apologizing to their Dear Leader over the slightest of infractions. 😂

Love how China has reminded the world how ruthless they can be. You guys have romanticized them for too long.

Trump on Husted: He’s a fine man. I like men, but I've never been particularly attracted. I was studying him. I studied his ass. I hurt my hand. I made the mistake of studying his anatomy.

Listen, I'm not gonna lie: if you had told me the GOP would be spinning out in petty, cringey rage for days because of a dorky Cheesecake Factory joke, I'm not sure I would have believed you.

Trump admitted he blocked energy funding to punish blue states he lost in 2024, including $586 million for Illinois. Courts ruled it illegal. He's still blocking the money. Bipartisan permitting reform won't work if Trump ignores the law. He must reinstate the grants first.

Barack Obama actually compared President Trump’s White House to Saddam Hussein opening a Cheesecake Factory. Imagine being a former president and thinking that’s a clever insult. The Cheesecake Factory is a great American success story. Good food, hardworking employees, and millions of customers who love eating there. Obama thought he was insulting Trump, but he managed to drag a popular American restaurant into his cheap political joke. Americans are enjoying their cheesecake while Obama is still bitter about Trump. What an embarrassment.

Vance on El-Sayed: We have to understand what happens when our nation gives into these kinds of people with zero attachment to its land or to its history. What we saw in France, the hatred, the ingratitude, the desire to destroy rather than a desire to build, that exact same cancer that has corrupted El-Sayed.
