The United States and Israel did not lose to Iran on the battlefield. American and Israeli strikes damaged key facilities and removed senior operatives. Yet the April 2026 ceasefire and the subsequent memorandum of understanding left Tehran’s regime, its nuclear program, and its missile arsenal intact while unlocking nearly $344 billion in reconstruction funds, access […]
Disgraced former President Joe Biden raged and mumbled his way through a ten-minute diatribe attacking his successor, at one point hypocritically accusing President Donald J. Trump of […]
President Donald Trump waived the Jones Act in March, calling it a temporary measure to ease fuel prices after the Iran war cut oil supplies. Prices haven’t fallen, but the market has started recalibrating whether America’s foundational maritime and homeland security law still matters. For most Americans, this feels new. But for the U.S. offshore […]
Iran resumed scheduled flights to Dubai for the first time since the start of the war with the US and Israel in late February, after both sides agreed to halt a series of attacks over the Strait of Hormuz.

Political commentators took shots at President Donald Trump on Sunday after CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins posted a new photo of the Kennedy Center's newest renovation project. In May, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration to remove Trump's name from the Kennedy Center facade after the administration abruptly put it up without going through the proper approval process. The move was part of Trump's effort to rebrand the center as the Trump Kennedy Center, which prompted bipartisan scrutiny of the administration. In response to the judge's order, the Trump administration put up scaffolding and tarps, obscuring the Kennedy Center's signage. Some political analysts have theorized that the move was designed to make it appear that the administration is removing Trump's name when it really has no intention of doing so. The photo Collins posted showed the Kennedy Center's signage still obscured by scaffolding and tarps, sparking mockery. "Donald Trump’s ego is as fragile as a china eggshell," Bill Prady, creator of "The Big Bang Theory," posted on X. "We are governed by children," Douglas Heye, a former Republican National Committee official, posted on X. "This administration's level of pettiness is truly mindboggling," Franklin Harris, an editorial writer for Decatur Daily, posted on X. The name of the Kennedy Center remains covered by a tarp and scaffolding. Two guards are standing in front of it. pic.twitter.com/QguvnUmANL— Kaitlan Collins (@kaitlancollins) June 28, 2026
MS NOW host and former GOP lawmaker Joe Scarborough sharply rebuked House Speaker Mike Johnson on Sunday, accusing him of hypocrisy after the speaker claimed Democrats were trying to "steal" elections.The exchange stemmed from Johnson's appearance on Fox Business's "Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo," where, according to a clip shared by the anti-Trump outlet The Bulwark, the speaker framed an election fight in stark partisan terms."We can't allow big blue states and crooked Democrat governors to try to steal elections away from us," Johnson said.Scarborough was unsparing in his response, calling on the speaker to drop the rhetoric and pointing to the circumstances of Johnson's own path to power."Stop lying, Mike. You're embarrassing yourself," Scarborough wrote.The host then zeroed in on what he characterized as Johnson's selective outrage, noting that the speaker had no objection to California Republicans when their votes helped install him in his leadership post."You were fine becoming Speaker with the help of California congressmen elected the same way," Scarborough wrote, before posing a pointed challenge: "Will you surrender the Speaker's gavel and not allow California Republicans to be seated in January?"He closed with a dismissive flourish: "I didn't think so."The clash comes amid escalating tensions over election administration and redistricting, with both parties accusing the other of attempting to tilt the electoral map ahead of the November midterms. Johnson's comments, delivered in a segment nominally focused on the defense budget, reflected the increasingly combative posture Republican leaders have taken toward Democratic-run states.For Scarborough, a former Republican congressman turned vocal critic of the party's current direction, the speaker's framing presented an opening to highlight what he portrayed as a glaring inconsistency in the official position.
