Right now the Dow has dropped over 1,000 points. If that holds, it will be the 14th time in history it happened.
Donald Trump was President 12 of those times.
Trump: "Spain has been terrible. I told Scott to cut off all dealings with Spain. They said we can't use their bases. We could use their bases if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody is gonna tell us not to use it."

Encuentro lamentable y bochornoso el impasse entre Boric y Kast; sobre todo que el pdte electo se haya retirado de la reunión, algo que parece planificado de antemano.
Como Chile tiene vocación de entendimiento y no de enfrentamiento (card. R Silva), llamo a G. Boric y a J A Kast a que vuelvan a dialogar. Chile pide consensos y unidad. Además, sería un gran ejemplo para los jóvenes. El todo es más que las partes. ¡Atrévanse por amor a Chile!
The White House says Barron Trump is “too tall” at 6'9" for military service.
David Robinson was 7'0" and put his NBA career on hold to serve in the Navy. Height clearly wasn’t an excuse then and it isn’t now.
America didn’t become “great” by cutting taxes for the wealthy and crushing labor.
It became great when the rich paid more, unions were strong, and the government invested in its people.
Shared prosperity built this country.
Trickle down just sold it off.
I genuinely think the worst thing the internet did to reading was convince people that finishing books is a competitive sport. You don't need to read 52 books a year. You just need to read. Books you like. At your own pace. And think about them for longer than a TikTok video.
DURBIN: How does taking a father from a child dying of cancer qualify as a violent crime?
NOEM: I don't know what you're speaking of
DURBIN: You know exactly what I'm speaking of. Ruben Torres two weeks ago buried his daughter Ofelia. When he was arrested at Home Depot, he said to your agents, 'Please let me go home. My daughter is dying of cancer.' They said 'No.' They arrested him and deported him for two weeks. Finally he returned for a court hearing. His daughter lived to see that hearing where the court said he was treated unfairly by your agency, and she died 3 days later. I was at her memorial service. Was he a violent criminal?
NOEM: Sir, we enforce the law
DURBIN: What law?
