"The State of Delusion Address"
Nothing says "nailed it" like giving yourself an A+ during prime time, then waking up to six different pollsters all agreeing you've earned a solid F from the American public.
A rare bipartisan consensus that a majority of Americans are, shall we say, not impressed.

Trump may tell Americans — even his own supporters — that they won’t pay the tariffs.
But at the same time, his own lawyers are arguing before the Supreme Court that American businesses and consumers pay the tariffs.

Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

Project 2025 was Donald Trump's blueprint to seize unchecked power within the federal government and restrict Americans' freedoms. And he is implementing it right in front of our eyes.

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database.
Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away.
