Following reports over the weekend that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth had another Signal chat with his wife and brother where he shared sensitive information, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt went on Fox News and basically admitted that the entire Pentagon HATES Hegseth. She said that leaks like this are what happens when the “entire Pentagon is working against you,” but they wouldn’t be working against him if they didn’t want him gone. And none of that is a viable excuse for what Hegseth has done.

Democratic Party vice chair David Hogg is working on transforming the Party from the inside, and his moves are sending Democrats into a complete panic. Hogg recently suggested that the DNC could start funding primary challengers against spineless, ineffective Democratic lawmakers, and that didn’t sit well with the Party establishment. But this type of bold action is absolutely needed inside the DNC, and Hogg is doing a great job with both his force and his ideas.

Donald Trump let the Supreme Court know this week that he is furious with them for allegedly blocking his every move, which isn’t even close to being true. Trump is angry that the Court has ordered him to retrieve the wrongfully deported man from El Salvador and also that they temporarily blocked him from using the Alien Enemies Act to deny people due process. Trump has made it clear that he’s going to continue to defy the Court, which he claims is now being manipulated by liberals.

According to a new report from The Wall Street Journal, the stock market is on track to have its worst April since 1932 when the US was in the grips of the Great Depression. Investors have lost faith in the markets thanks solely to Donald Trump’s policies, and the dollar is experiencing a dangerous drop in value as a result. All of this could spell economic disaster for the United States in a record amount of time.

A series of polls came out this week with the worst news that Trump has gotten during his second term. Not only has his approval on the economy tanked, but now a majority of voters squarely blame him for the state of the economy instead of Biden. On top of that, even the conservative pollsters are showing their worst numbers ever for Trump. Things have gone from bad to worse for Trump in a record amount of time.

Donald Trump might be on the receiving end of another serious investigation launched by New York Attorney General Letitia James. James’ office announced this week that they were “reviewing” possible insider trading allegations against the administration for their stock market boasts and gains after Trump “paused” tariffs last week (which was preceded by Trump saying on Truth Social that now is a “great time to buy.”) There are some interesting aspects of this situation.

And the Trump administration has triggered a major Constitutional crisis by openly defying an order by the US Supreme Court, while Trump himself acts like he is powerless in the face of the President of El Salvador. Trump has shown us what a weak coward he truly is, but he’s a weak coward that wants to be a dictator.

Donald Trump proudly proclaimed victory this week as the stock market continued to nosedive. Trump claimed on Truth Social that everything was going great and that prices for consumers were all dropping, which is the complete opposite of what’s actually happening across the country. It is obvious that he is attempting to do damage control, but it isn’t working.

The Trump administration has maintained that the people they’ve deported to the El Salvadorian prison were all violent criminals that were so dangerous that they had to be sent away immediately. But a 60 Minutes investigation found that at least 75% of the people deported have NO criminal records, completely blowing up the talking points of the administration.

Russian state media is laughing at the United States after Donald Trump tanked the economy and destroyed global trust in the US’ economic system. In fact, they went as far as to say that there should be statues built of Trump for the damage that he’s done to our country. This is a country that clearly hates us and thinks Trump is a fool, but that hasn’t stopped Trump from giving them everything they’ve ever wanted.

And Elon Musk is continuing to escalate his feud with top Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro, saying that he is a “moron” who is “dumber than a sack of bricks.” Elon also called out Navarro for inventing a fictional “expert” to justify his obsession with tariffs. Musk isn’t wrong about those parts, but he’s also being dishonest with people about the true nature of Tesla vehicles and the impact of the tariffs on his businesses.

In an interview published late last week by Jewish Insider, SEVEN Republican Senators went after Vice President JD Vance for trying to block Donald Trump’s military attack in Yemen, which was revealed during the Signal chat saga. One Republican Senator went as far as to say that Trump likely has buyer’s remorse about picking Vance as his running mate and as the heir apparent to the MAGA movement.

Current and former pilots from the US military are speaking out about Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and his reckless behavior exposed through the Signalgate scandal. These pilots say that Hegseth’s recklessness could get pilots (and other members of the military) killed, and they say that there’s no place in the military for negligence of this caliber.

A new poll shows that nearly three-quarters of Americans believe that the Signal Gate Controversy is a big deal. What makes the poll more interesting is that even a majority of Republicans believe that it is a big deal, and a larger share of Americans think this is a problem compared to those who thought Hillary Clinton’s “email scandal” was a problem. This is now a major problem for Donald Trump and Republicans, and it is up to Democrats to make sure that the public doesn’t forget and that those responsible are held accountable.

The White House is in full panic mode after a reporter for The Atlantic was included on a private group chat that laid out war plans for last week’s attack in Yemen. The controversial move, and the possibly illegal decision to use a private messaging app for confidential information, has left many calling for mass firings or resignations on top of investigations, which has sent the Trump administration into a tailspin as the attempt to defend the indefensible.

Vice President JD Vance could have some big problems ahead of him after it was revealed that he tried to block Donald Trump’s attack in Yemen last week. This information was apparently not known by Trump, as he wasn’t included on the text message chain that was accidentally sent to a reporter. But now the truth is out that Vance tried to undermine his boss, which was actually a GOOD thing.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that her department was going to begin the process of eliminating FEMA, as Donald Trump has suggested multiple times. It is impossible to believe that they don’t know how devastating this is going to be for Red States, as the top three recipients of FEMA aide are all deep red, Republican-controlled areas. But the administration is moving forward anyway, and as usual, their own voters will suffer the most.
