The recording, which quickly spread across TikTok, X and Reddit, claims to capture Vance disparaging Musk, stating: 'He's making me look bad' and calling him 'an unelected official' who is damaging the administration's image.

To Uber Riders Giving Tesla Drivers 1-Star Ratings 9 replies
A single 1-star rating, seemingly given as a form of protest against Tesla rather than the driver's service, has sparked a social media storm. Elon Musk has hit back at reports that an Uber driver received a low rating solely for driving a Tesla, further fuelling ongoing debates surrounding the electric vehicle company.
On Saturday, Musk, Tesla's CEO, replied to an online post that said an Uber driver using a Tesla received a 1-star rating amidst national protests against the carmaker.

President Donald Trump has continued his campaign to shut down government agencies he deems 'a waste of taxpayer money', this time targeting the nation's publicly funded broadcasters.

A record number of Americans are working multiple jobs, with side hustles becoming a financial lifeline in an economy where wages struggle to keep pace with inflation. According to a recent survey, over a third of U.S. adults now earn extra income through gigs such as freelancing or weekend shifts.
With the cost of living continuing to rise—particularly for parents and carers—it is hardly surprising that so many are turning to second jobs to stay afloat.
Once considered the undisputed leader in the electric vehicle (EV) revolution, Tesla is now grappling with a dramatic decline in its stock value, mounting competition, and an impending wave of boycotts. The company's struggles come amid growing concerns over CEO Elon Musk's political entanglements, including his controversial role in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has sparked nationwide protests.
US Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, also known as AOC, and Anna Paulina Luna introduced a bill late last week to cap credit card interest rates at 10%. The H.R. 1944 bill aligns with US President Donald Trump's campaign pledge to cap credit card rates at 10%.
'We're making that pledge more than a talking point by introducing legislation to protect working people from remaining trapped under mountains of debt,' Ocasio-Cortez said in a press release

Townhall covered how Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett shamelessly mocked Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for being paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair. She did so in public remarks she gave at an event for the left-wing Human Rights Campaign. “We in these hot a** Texas streets, honey,” she said at an event for the left-wing Human Rights Campaign. “Y’all know we got governor hot wheels down there, c’mon now!

Democratic California Rep. Maxine Waters suggested President Donald Trump should investigate and potentially deport first lady Melania Trump during an anti-DOGE protest in Los Angeles over the weekend. "When he [Trump] talks about birthright, and he's going to undo the fact that the Constitution allows those who are born here, even if the parents are undocumented, they have a right to stay in America. If he wants to start looking so closely to find those who were born here and their parents were undocumented, maybe he ought to first look at Melania,"
Democrats were in faux outrage mode in the wake of a report by Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic that he was mistakenly included in a chat on Signal with senior Trump administration officials discussing a planned military strike on Houthi rebels in Yemen. Goldberg described the chat as containing “classified” information; however, that is untrue.
So while this wasn’t the scandal that Democrats hoped it would be, the big question that remains is how Goldberg ended up in the chat on Signal in the first place.
According to President Trump, they know that it was a staffer of National Security Advisor Mike Waltz.

President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order requiring people to provide proof of American citizenship when they register to vote and demanding that all ballots be reviewed by Election Day. The order requires government-issued proof of U.S. citizenship on its voter registration forms, directs the attorney general to enter into information-sharing agreements with state election officials to identify cases of election fraud or other election law violations and conditions federal election-related funds on states complying with federal election integrity measures. [Snip] Documentary proof of citizenship includes a U.S. passport, a REAL ID or military, state or federally-issued identification indicating American citizenship.
There's been a flurry of executive orders today (Tuesday), some already raising the ire of the Left and so-called watchdog groups who don't want their grifts to go away. Looking at you, Stacey Abrams. This Executive Order, Modernizing Payments To and From America’s Bank Account, appears to be passing under the radar; or maybe everyone is just too weary to care.
Here's the skinny:
Effective September 30, 2025, the federal government will no longer issue paper checks for any disbursements, including Social Security and other benefits, vendor payments, or IRS refunds. All agencies and executive departments must transition to a form of electronic funds transfer to make and receive payments.

The rest of the DC setup is transparently clear. (1) Goldberg held the story until the day before a long-scheduled Senate Intelligence Committee hearing. (2) The SSCI then used the hearing to blast the heads of the Trump administration intelligence silos on the issue of “classified” information
“We welcome this continued relief for tens of thousands of refugees who will now have the opportunity to restart their lives in the United States,” said Melissa Keaney, the progressive lawyer for the elite-funded, anti-borders International Refugee Assistance Project. In a second courtroom in Seattle, another federal judge ordered the Trump administration to keep paying the quasi-government agencies that settle the refugees in Americans’ crowded housing, schools, and workplaces, such as in Springfield, Ohio.
A Pennsylvania Democrat has called for Senator John Fetterman to resign, citing his growing alignment with the Republican Party and President Donald Trump. In a guest editorial published by PennLive on March 22, Matt Roan, chair of the Cumberland County Democratic Party, criticized the senator from Pennsylvania for what he described as an abandonment of Democratic values. Newsweek contacted Fetterman for comment via email on Monday. Why It Matters Fetterman's efforts to work with Republicans, including being the first Senate Democrat to meet Trump after his election victory, follow his break with progressives on issues such as support for Israel
Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) lived up to her reputation as a loose-lipped leftist congresswoman, making waves at the 2025 Human Rights Campaign (HRC) dinner by calling paralyzed Texas Gov. Greg Abbott “Governor Hot Wheels.”

During portions of an interview with NPR aired on Monday’s broadcast of “All Things Considered,” Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH) declared that Democrats “better shape up and put together a plan for progress, starting in the places that have fallen behind where people are voting for change simply because the economy is not working for them.” And that those voters voted for Donald Trump because they knew where they live isn’t great.
Kaptur said, “They heard President Trump say, Make America Great Again. That was something they want to do, and they know where they live isn’t. They’ve seen factories
In a ruling that should outrage every parent, taxpayer, and conservative voter in Texas, a federal judge has stomped all over the authority of the Texas A&M University Board of Regents—greenlighting a sexually charged, ideologically driven drag show to proceed on campus despite a commonsense ban.
Senior U.S. District Judge Lee H. Rosenthal, appointed by George H. W. Bush, issued a sweeping preliminary injunction Monday that forces Texas A&M to allow the so-called “Draggieland” event—a campus drag show hosted by the “Queer
Maybe you've seen this already. It seems to be everywhere today so we might as well talk about it. Just over a week ago the Trump administration announced a series of strikes on the Houthis in Yemen.
The US has launched a "decisive and powerful" wave of air strikes on Houthi rebels in Yemen, President Donald Trump has said, citing the group's attacks on shipping in the Red Sea as the reason.
"Funded by Iran, the Houthi thugs have fired missiles at US aircraft, and targeted our Troops and Allies," Trump said on social media, adding that their "piracy, violence, and terrorism" had cost "billions" and put lives at risk.
