Trump on the current system of compensation for college athletes: "I think you should just go back to what you had and let some judge tell you you can't do it. And you appeal it up and you win at some point, because I think what you had was a great system."
After spending the day talking about college football, Trump heads to Palm Beach for another weekend of golf.
"We have to understand him not as a fascist, though he is, but as a crazy person — a genuinely crazy person who wakes up every day & you never know what he's going to do bc he doesn't know"

Trump Fed Governor Stephen Miran as oil prices spike: "We don't have an inflation problem. The inflation excess is not entirely but largely a function of measurement issues."
We're at war in Iran, the president is already talking about another war with Cuba, and the White House and secretary of state are spending their time doing a roundtable on Name, Image, and Likeness rights in college sports?
So immigrants were “taking our jobs”…
but now fewer immigrants means fewer jobs?
The math on their propaganda never works.
The DEA opened an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and a dozen other individuals in 2015 that centered on allegations of money laundering, drug trafficking, and the procurement of Eastern European prostitutes for high-profile clients.
ICE wants to turn warehouses into detention centers. The suburbs are fighting back.
“Most of our pickleball group is here,” said Marion Atwater, a 73-year-old in a navy visor and puffer jacket. “We did not bring our paddles, but we are here with our signs.”

McCormick: "It's common sense. You gotta have a voter ID to pick up a 6 pack of beer, you gotta have an ID to give blood, get married. This is basic common sense. And the fact Democrats can't embrace this is a real disgrace."
This is an actual Pentagon press release. “An Army believed to be casualty…the believed to be death”
CBP puts the blame on legacy IT systems. To be blunt, while these problems may be completely valid, this is entirely the fault of the government.
Leavitt on why Trump thinks Markwayne Mullin is the best candidate for DHS: "He's been a strong friend of the president and a big supporter of the president's immigration policies"
The Washington Post Breaking News Post Exclusive 27 minutes ago Justice Department targets Cuban officials, aims for indictments The effort to bring charges against Cuban officials coincides with President Donald Trump saying that his administration is eyeing Cuba as the next country whose government might be overthrown, following the capture of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro in early January and the killing of Iran's supreme leader on Saturday.
A regime that values domestic and international violence above the rule of law is unsustainable.
Trump: "I guess we have to go through Congress. I'd do an executive order. I'd love to do that. I'll probably do it anyway. We'll do an executive order and see how it works."
1. Yesterday, Joe Rogan called transgender people perverts and school shooters to his audience of tens of millions of people.
It was his most overt display of transphobia yet.
Democrats wanted to court this man and his listeners.
The latest from our journalist, S. Baum.
Republicans are pushing DOJ to bring criminal charges against Cassidy Hutchinson for spilling the beans on Donald Trump's Jan 6 shenanigans.
This is all about creating a chilling effect on anyone in the administration who is *currently* witnessing unethical/illegal behavior.
brianmcginnisnc Brian McGinnis' wife has NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital. He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries. Legal counsel has also been denied access. A Marine veteran. A firefighter. A father of four. And his family still cannot see him.
so apparently Brian McGinnis has been denied access to both his family and legal representation since a sitting senator broke his arm
The U.N. peacekeeping mission in Lebanon says three UNIFIL peacekeepers were injured after heavy firing struck their base in Al Qawzah in southwestern Lebanon. One was transferred to a hospital in Beirut. They have not identified who is responsible for he strikes. Thread 👇
We didn't "lose" jobs. Trump killed them.
The national suicide being committed by the Republican-led United States has no historical precedent. Centuries from now (if humanity survives that long), historians will struggle to explain how such a thing was possible.
Reverend Al Sharpton has sharp, yet necessary, words for the crowd at the memorial for Rev. Jesse Jackson.
"Don't sit here so holy and sanctified and act like you have no assignment yourself."
And these books are cooked, so imagine if they gave us the real job numbers!
We’re not great yet…

I do think “Graham Platner was a bartender who personally served some DC pundits and reporters and was known to them” is a pretty big part of the skeleton key to unlocking how he got so much cash and media attention so fast and why they’re so determined to stay all in on him now
Screenshot of an X post by Acyn quoting Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt saying the president had a “feeling, again, based on fact,” that Iran was going to strike the United States. Below is a TV still of Leavitt speaking at a White House press briefing podium, with a news banner reading “BREAKING NEWS.”
We bombed a girls’ school and killed 175 kids based on his feelings?!
records from three additional interviews with a woman who accused Trump of sexual assault were "incorrectly coded as duplicative"? oh for sure, definitely passes the smell test
what is the case for thinking that the duration of the conflict will be up to Trump?
My kids have measles, there are no jobs, and the country is at war. But at least now I can buy raw milk with my HSA card.
As I have said since Feb 2025, Trump is in office to solve Putin's problems. How else are you going to ensure that Putin's failed state becomes prosperous? it is already having to be propped up by China.
DOOCY: What is motivating you to do this right now? There is a lot of other stuff going on in the world
TRUMP: In Iran we're doing very well. Somebody said, 'How would you score it from 0 to 10?' I said, 'I'd give it a 12 to a 15.'
Less than one week into a war with Iran, Trump spent more than 90 minutes at an event (with Marco Rubio by his side) talking at a roundtable about what ails college sports and how to fix it.
