Writer Toby Morton bought the trumpkennedycenter.org and trumpkennedycenter.com domains back in August and is now plotting how best to parody Trump's vanity, according to The Washington Post.

In the 1998 World War II film Saving Private Ryan, Tom Hanks played Captain John H. Miller, a citizen-soldier willing to die for his country.

Stephen Colbert joined Political Gabfest on stage in New York City for their 20th anniversary show. He sang. He explained why he'd slip into Trump's skin for a day (to resign, obviously). He answered listener conundrums, including which Gabfest host would make the best dictator and what pastry he'd like to be reincarnated as.

The speech was, in that familiar Trumpian way, about permission: who gets to be here, who gets to be counted, who gets to be treated as American. And, to illustrate this, Trump reached for one of his favorite targets: Minnesota Representative Ilhan Omar, a Somali American citizen whose presence in this country has infuriated Trump for nearly a decade (and for whom I used to work as a political communications operative):

A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS.

President Donald Trump's much-hyped presidential address underwhelmed many viewers on Wednesday, with one critic protesting that it could have been a late-night Truth Social post instead. While the president touched on several topics during his speech — announcing Christmas warrior dividend payments to military personnel and taking credit for making the United States the hottest country in the world — many viewers were left underwhelmed.

There has never been an Administration that has accomplished as much in less than one year than the Trump Administration,

The Senate confirmed Jared Isaacman's appointment as the head of NASA on Wednesday, a decision that comes just months after President Donald Trump pulled his nomination before picking him yet again in November, as reported earlier by CNBC. Isaacman, the founder and CEO of a payments platform called Shift4, has flown to space twice through private missions with Elon Musk's SpaceX.

Discussions of race are everywhere and nowhere in 2025. On one hand, President Donald Trump is openly insulting Somali immigrants, describing entire nations as "shithole" countries, and insisting that the most persecuted class of humans are white South Africans. On the other, none of this is actually registering as anything other than Trump being Trump, and so when the Supreme Court agrees to revisit a foundational doctrine like birthright citizenship, too many of us shrug it off.

President Donald Trump dismissed a reporter's question about skyrocketing healthcare costs, griping, You make it sound so bad. At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire, said a reporter. What's your message to those 24 million Americans who will see their insurance premiums go up Well, don't make it sound so bad, Trump interrupted, because obviously, you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

He told the MAGA faithful, who are having trouble making ends meet, that their kids don't need so many dolls or pencils. He said, You only need a couple of dolls and one or two pencils.' The guy who bedazzled this room in gold thinks your child has too many pencils at school. His strategy, it seems, is to just keep saying things are great, which is the same mistake Joe Biden made, by the way.

Kristi's doing a great job,

The Center for Biological Diversity filed a lawsuit today to prevent President Donald Trump from replacing a beautiful picture of Glacier National Park with a close-up of his own face on the America the Beautiful National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Annual Pass, reads a press release. Kieran Suckling, executive director of the Center, blasted the president's image being used on passes as his crassest, most ego-driven action yet.

I know the companies very well. I know what they're doing, but I have to see, I have to see what percentage of market they have.

"whatever" footage the Pentagon possesses "we'd certainly release, no problem."
