Amazon "will soon show how much Trump’s tariffs are adding to the price of each product, according to a person familiar with the plan.

The shopping site will display how much of an item’s cost is derived from tariffs – right next to the product’s total listed price."

Ok you’ve all heard about Hegseth’s Signalgate scandal, but did you know that he used THAT SAME PHONE NUMBER on FACEBOOK, WhatsApp & a sports betting site?

I just about fell out of my chair.

Any 13 year old would know better. Our country is doomed with these clowns in charge.

If you’re attending the White House Correspondents Association dinner tonight, be sure to come prepared with a joke about the toddler cancer patient they just disappeared despite her being a citizen.

Otherwise it’s going to be awkward when you’re mugging for photos with Stephen Miller.

NEW damning details on Pete Hegseth:

Minutes before U.S. jets hit Yemen, Gen. Kurilla sent strike intel through a secure gov system. Hegseth turned around and dropped it in at least two Signal chats—on his personal phone.

Jet timing. Target locations. And he still has the job.

This screenshot is the smoking gun.

The Defense Secretary—on Signal—live texting classified strike times to people without the proper clearance.

Hegseth’s defense? Blame a “disgruntled employee” and bash the media. And the White House is still standing by him.
