White House In Meltdown As Court Says 'Nope' To Trump's Tariff Temper Tantrum

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt reacted to the ruling by the U.S. Court of International Trade that determined that TACO's tariff orders are "unlawful." She's unhappy, even though one of the three judges is a Trump appointee, but she skipped over that part. "The courts should have no role here," she said of the United States Court of International Trade. "There is a troubling and dangerous trend of unelected judges inserting themselves into the presidential decision-making process."

Fox Hosts Bash Dem Polling, But Tarlov Turns The Tables

Fox's Jessica Tarlov delivered some brutal poll numbers on Trump during a segment where they were bashing Democrats for being unpopular. Bashing Democrats and trying to paint them as being as bad or worse than Republicans, along with pushing their latest conspiracy theory (thanks Jake Tapper) that there was some grand coverup about Biden's cognitive state, are two of the network's favorite pastimes, in between showing complete fealty to Trump and pretending he's sane.

Surprise! Voters Want The Government To Inspect Food

President Donald Trump is waging a war on your fridge""in more ways than one. And he's doing so with strong voter opposition. The Food and Drug Administration is reportedly drawing up plans to end most of its routine food safety inspections, shifting the onus of that critical oversight onto state and local officials.
