MSNOW aired the part of the Talarico interview that Fox isn’t showing:
REPORTER: …you said ‘there are 6 biological sexes.’ Do you still believe that?
TALARICO: I think the reason that politicians… across the street want to talk about 6 sexes is because they don’t want to talk about $6 diesel.

Canada launched counter-tariffs on $27.6 billion of US goods, hours after Trump moved to bar Bombardier jet sales in the United States. Canada is partnering with Sweden's Saab and Bombardier on defense projects; it would benefit Canadian and Ukrainian defence, triggering Trump retaliation.

The trade war with Canada makes no economic sense. And most Americans agree. Polling shows they see Canadians as close allies, oppose the tariffs against them, and are actually cheering on Canadian retaliation. https://youtu.be/h8Fvnl0l7_8

According to NYT, Trump was hidden in a catering cart and wheeled onto a military jet for a secret flight out of Turkey last month. 😂 We’re sorry, but we cannot get past the catering cart part. Imagine being Secret Service and hearing, “The eagle is in the chafing dish.”

The Trump administration spent $5.1 million to coat four iconic bronze horse statues in Washington, D.C. with 23.75-karat gold leaf. Federal records show the contract was awarded without a full, traditional competitive bidding process due to its "urgency” but no Medicare part D
