Trump claimed a saboteur armed with a box cutter caused a 350-foot gash in the newly renovated Reflecting Pool. But the manufacturer behind the project says the issue was simply "finish coat separation" and makes no mention of vandalism, sabotage, or criminal activity. https://t.co/9KVsw7MOe4
Chicago, it’s good to be home!
Michelle and I built the Obama Presidential Center to be a place where people of all ages can learn, play, and work – and we can't wait to welcome you all later this week!
On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying. I’ll always be grateful to our fallen heroes and their families, whose sacrifice reminds us of what it means to live for something greater than ourselves.
Trump on Iran War:
Reporter: What extent are Americans’ financial situation motivating you to make a deal?
Trump: Not even a little bit. I don't think about Americans’ financial situation
All of the MAGA snowflakes are crashing out over Jimmy Kimmel making jokes but when Trump demands Democrats be put to death or mocks his political opponents dying, they’re silent
Holy shit, how is Iran banging these 🔥LEGO videos out so damn quickly?
"Shots fired, whole place got swatted out...
Staging the whole scene
Every time your polls drop low
You pull this same scheme."
Even THEY think it was staged.
Trump just posted a photo depicting himself as Jesus. He is depicting himself as God. He is not mentally fit to serve.
MAGA Christians: How could you POSSIBLY defend this?
What the Artemis II astronauts did over the last 10 days was a testament to their bravery. And the fact that they traveled farther from Earth than anyone ever has, re-entered our atmosphere at more than 24,000 mph, and splashed down safely was a testament to human ingenuity. Thanks to everyone at @NASA for making this mission possible, and for taking us along for the ride.
JUST IN: Inflation soared in March to 3.3% y/y--> the highest annual rate since May 2024. The war in Iran is squeezing middle income and lower income households.
**Inflation in March alone rose 0.9%. That’s the biggest one-month jump since June 2022**
Gas jumped +21% in March
Fuel oil soared +31% in March
Airfares +15% in March
Food was flat for the month, but is likely to go up later in the spring/summer.

It was inspiring to watch the Artemis II launch yesterday — @NASA’s first crewed mission around the moon since 1972. Our space program has always captured an essential part of what it means to reach beyond what we thought was possible, and I hope the four brave astronauts on this mission will inspire a new generation to follow in their footsteps.
Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.
BREAKING: Democrat Emily Gregory wins Florida House District 87 special election, defeating Republican Jon Maples and flipping the seat from red to blue.
This is the Mar-a-Lago district — Trump won it by 11 points in 2024 and heavily promoted Maples.
The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time.
The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more.
But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.
