Trump had one theory of the case on the economy and it isn't entirely working out so he's kind of borrowing from Bernie Sanders, Liz Warren, and Zohran Mamdani to figure out some next steps www.businessinsider.com/trump-afford...

My boyfriend won an allegedly free cruise by playing Tetris on the subway (???) so we did it and then I wrote about it. What I am saying is you should click at least to read the opening. www.businessinsider.com/cruise-hater...

between the sydney sweeney thing and the cracker barrel thing, i feel like we're reaching an era where people are seeing politics where they truly are not. sometimes brands just do things!

Energy bills are rising nationwide, and Trump and the GOP are to blame. They rolled back clean energy incentives and greenlit an AI surge, pushing costs onto working families and deepening economic & environmental inequality. I break it down in TIME today: time.com/7312151/ener...
