Wow. Can you imagine how bad you must have been to be banned by Waffle House? WH welcomes everyone 24/7.

Florida governor candidate James Fishback said his campaign was banned from Waffle House restaurants across the Sunshine State. thehill.com/homenews/cam...

OK, I will admit that I have not done any historical review here, but it is wild to me that DOJ is filing a motion to stay and — alternatively — to dismiss the case altogether for three independent reasons. And yet, in the unending mifepristone challenge (now in Missouri), that's what DOJ did today.

Trump tariffs: Customs and Border Protection tells judge it can't comply with refund order CBP told Judge Richard Eaton that the technology upgrades it plans would save more than 4 million man-hours in processing refunds for Trump's tariffs.

Illegally collecting $166 billion is much easier than giving it back. US Customs and Border Protection tells a federal judge its antiquated technology simply cannot handle refunding Mr. Trump’s unlawful tariffs right now. The government needs until late April to figure out how to write a check.

Florida Bar reverses itself, says it is not investigating Lindsey Halligan A spokesperson said the bar’s counsel “erroneously” stated there was a “pending investigation”; instead, a complaint against Halligan remains at a preliminary stage.

The Florida Bar said it is not investigating Lindsey Halligan, the former interim U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, contradicting a prior statement that it had opened an inquiry into her prosecutions of President Trump’s political foes.

Obama: Every day you wake up to things you just didn’t think were possible. Each day we’re told by those in high office to fear each other. Everywhere we see greed and bigotry being celebrated, and bullying and mockery masquerading as strength.

Incredibly angry about this every day.

The people who pick on trans kids are not only disgusting freaks who want to inspect children's genitals, they're also miserable bullies who break the rules of decency laid down by every measurement of morality.

Trump has been whining and threatening Powell about lowering interest rates for the past 14 months. TRUMP’S WAR has caused the 10 year Treasury yield to reach its highest level since Feb 2025! HE caused this!

Weeksville was one of the largest free Black communities in pre-Civil War America. Today, it remains a cornerstone of this city, but its history has too often been overlooked.

This short film is the story of Weeksville's rich, living history — and its vibrant future.

Former VP Kamala Harris at the memorial service for Rev. Jesse Jackson:

"So let me just say, I predicted a lot about what's happening right now. I'm not into saying 'I told you so' but we did see it coming."

Yes. She. Did.

92,000 jobs lost in February after a gain in January.
Unemployment up.

One in four unemployed has been out of work 27+ weeks. That’s nearly 7 months. Inflation’s ticking up too.

This is economic cruelty — and the people in power know it.
