"I'm just going to be honest, she's not the most attractive gal," said the star MAGA media personality. "She's extremely beefy in her arms and her legs. She has a whole video online talking about her cankles." But Kelly believes she has found the real Jane Doe, and rather than focus on the substance of the then-20-year-old female student's allegations " that she met a friend at a fraternity house amid a night of partying, was plied with alcohol and ketamine, and was sexually assaulted by seven of the frat brothers after her friend invited 57 of his frat brothers via Snapchat group chat to join in " Kelly attacked her physical appearance.

In what feels like a horrible case of deja vu, Donald Trump is once again trying to make everyone believe he deserves to win the Nobel Peace Prize. It was October of last year when US president Trump learned he had lost out on the Nobel Peace Prize despite months of claiming he deserved it for having "ended seven wars" in his second term.

And I've stopped maybe the total obliteration of the world because Iran will never have a nuclear weapon."

To hear President Trump and his aides describe it, the rush to withdraw 12 B-1 bombers from an air base in Britain over the weekend was a prudent precaution, in response to a threat they refused to describe," the New York Times reports. "It was no big deal, Mr. Trump insisted, and his secretary of state, Marco Rubio, tried to wave it away by noting that the Pentagon is constantly reallocating resources where they need to be.'"

The cost of many everyday items would have declined without President Donald Trump's legally fraught tariff policy, according to a report from the New York Federal Reserve. Shoppers saw a 2.9 percentage point increase in inflation on a sample of 67 types of goods as of February due to tariffs imposed in 2025 and early 2026. Without the tariffs, the team found that prices for goods would have pulled back in that period.
... It is hard"no, it's impossible"to remember a President who has done more to hurt his own party than Donald Trump. Not even Hillary's Health Care Plan came close in 1994. Not even George W.

Kimberly Guilfoyle asked a MAGA donor to pay a $100,000 American Express bill without leaving a paper trail, a bombshell new report alleges. Guilfoyle, 57, now the U.S. ambassador to Greece, begged for a cash infusion from Eric Deters, a 63-year-old former congressional candidate from Kentucky, he tells the Wall Street Journal, which also reviewed alleged Signal texts between the two.
