At a recent Yale CEO summit, the top business leaders in the country expressed their deep concerns that Donald Trump is tanking their businesses with his stupid decisions, particularly regarding tariffs. But tariffs weren't the only topic of discussion - these same leaders also made it clear that Trump's pressure on the federal reserve to lower interest rates would be a disaster right now. 

The Charlie Kirk Hate Rally Memorial took place over the weekend, and nearly every speaker present decided to use that opportunity to sow more hate and division in America. But no one sank to the level where Steve Bannon went when he declared in a broadcast from the memorial that "teachers are terrorists." This man is trying to get teachers targeted by frenzied right wingers, and we've already seen teachers and school boards across the country receiving threats at levels never before seen ever since Republicans took aim at them. 

During a black tie dinner gala on Saturday evening, Donald Trump took to the stage to cry to the audience about how mean Joe Biden was as a person. Trump didn't bother to elaborate on the manner in which Biden was mean to him, but he did immediately launch into a mocking rant about Biden having cancer. He went as far as to tell the crowd that they shouldn't feel bad for him because he was a bad guy. Interesting thought - we don't have to feel sympathy for bad things happening to someone if that person was a piece of garbage. 

Tulsi Gabbard, Donald Trump's Director of National Intelligence, committed a major blunder recently when she decided to strip 37 intelligence officials of their clearance, including top aides to the director of the CIA. On top of this, aides to the administration are FURIOUS over the fact that she did this without Trump's approval or knowledge, and they are warning Trump that Gabbard is going rogue and could be a threat to the administration. Farron discusses this new drama and the latest headache for Trump and his clown car cabinet.
