Is opposition to President Donald Trump’s policies a sincere political stance or the sign of a mental health problem? He seems to believe it’s the latter.
During an Oval Office event focusing on new maternal health initiatives on Monday, the president accused Democrats who voted against his partisan spending package last year of doing so because of “Trump Derangement” and claimed the opposition “can’t even see straight” because of their alleged symptoms.
“They've got serious Trump Derangement, which actually is a disease. I'm hearing it is actually a disease. It's an honor,” Trump insisted.
The president was referring to a fake condition coined by MAGA-aligned media figures who accuse Democrats of opposing him because of what they call “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

Sam Bankman-Fried, the imprisoned former cryptocurrency executive and billionaire, has asked the Trump administration for a pardon.

The Justice Department called the scheme “one of the largest financial frauds in history.”
In an interview with Fox Business earlier Monday, Bankman-Fried maintained that the original pr..

Writing on Truth Social on Monday, Trump claimed Israel “never talked me into war with Iran.”
“The results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did,” he said.
The president’s denial directly contradicts what Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters in early March during the opening days of the war.
During a brief press availability at the Capitol, Rubio — who also serves as Trump’s national security adviser — said Trump was forced into a preemptive response after learning of an imminent Israeli attack, as officials knew such an attack would trigger retaliation against US military personnel in the Middle East.
“It was abundantly clear that if Iran came under a..
