President Donald Trump addressed the Congress on March 4th for the first time since taking office and the speech he delivered became a hot topic, making headlines not only in the States but worldwide.
Among the rest, he delivered a message to the people of Greenland, saying, “If you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America.
“We need Greenland for national security and even international security.
“And we’re working with everybody involved to try and get it. But we need it really for international world security.”
Further, in his speech to the Congress, Trump blamed Biden’s administration for spending $8 million on making mice transgender, something comedian and host Jimmy Kimmel mocked him about on his show.

President Trump bragged of his administration’s accomplishments so far, and while the Republicans praised his speech, the Democrats showed their discontent with the government’s work.
Taking to the social media, many of them sparked debates about constitutional crisis, claiming he’s undermining democracy.
The deep divisions in American politics are now more obvious than ever.
Addressing the Republican Governors Association, Trump said, “I think the midterms are going to be a big, big surprise.
“You go back to the last I think eight elections in a row, the midterms haven’t been great for the person that wins the presidency. And I think so far, we’re very popular.”
He expressed his confidence that his party would dominate the 2026 elections, maintaining full control of the federal government, as per the Daily Mail.
“The red states are going to do good, and the blue states, I don’t know, maybe they’ll totally disappear off that map,” Trump said.

According to the Independent, the House Democrats are looking for a way to “productively” disrupt President Donald Trump’s speech to Congress. Citing Axios, they reported a democrat to have said, “The part that we all agree on is that this is not business as usual and we would like to find a way — productively — to express our outrage.
“There are definitely a lot of constituents that really want Democrats to disrupt and there are… constituents who feel like that just plays into his hands,” a House Democrat told the outlet.

My wife left me and the kids, and her decision not only brought devastation and anger but also left me facing a million questions from my girls and my entire family—questions I didn’t have the answers to.
What I believed to be a beautiful marriage of ten years ended as though it had never existed.
During the last couple of months of my union with Melissa, she became distant and spent more time on her phone and on the social media than around the girls.
It felt like something switched in her. She was no longer her old self.
And then, out of the blue, she told me she wanted out of the marriage.
“Melissa, it’s not just about you and I, we have two daughters together,” I tried to convince her to change her minds.
In the days to come, my pleas turned into begging, but she wouldn’t listen.
“What is wrong, Melissa, we can work together on whatever makes you feel this way,” I said, but she seemed determined to leave.
Midjourney
We weren’t extremely wealthy, but we did have nannies for the girls growing up and could afford to go on family vacations twice a year, but it seemed like my wife wanted more.
“I’ve found myself,” she said. “I want something different.” She then packed her bags and left.
Heartbroken, I found myself struggling between work, the house, and taking care of my girls. On top of everything, my entire family wanted to know why my marriage burst like a bubble, and I didn’t know the answer.
The girls kept asking when mommy was coming home, and those questions shattered my world.
The worst of all was that I was diagnosed with cancer, but my wife left before I even had the chance to share my diagnosis with her.

A few weeks later, I finally learned the true reason behind Melissa’s decision. She was with another man, her financial consultant.
As I scrolled through his Instagram, I saw photos of them at expensive 5-star restaurants, and their travels to Paris.
My wife left me and the kids so that she could have fun while her daughters left empty spaces on their crayon drawings hoping she would come back.
It was excruciating, especially for Sophie and Emily who longed for their mom.
But over time, we managed to cope with the reality of Melissa’s absence. My days consisted of struggling to balance my commitments and the long and tiring chemo sessions. My biggest concern was that my girls could lose their father.
The following year was a real hell. Chemo was excruciating, leaving me vomiting and barely standing on my legs. I lost my hair and a significant amount of weight. But I refused to give up.

After all those struggles, twelve rounds of chemo and a number of radiotherapies, I was finally cancer-free.
And then, two years after my wife abandoned us, I met her at a gas station and the meeting almost felt like poetic justice. Seeing her after that much time felt surreal. I couldn’t believe my eyes. “Melissa, is that you?” I asked as soon as I got out of my car.
She looked older and fragile, as though her entire world collapsed.
Melissa tried to avoid me at first, but she then asked to talk to me at the nearest park.
The woman who felt confident and wanted more from her life than being around her husband and her children was now crushed. She regretted her decision of ever leaving and begged to reconnect with her daughters.

“No, Melissa,” I said firmly. “They spent a long time feeling miserable because their mother had left them. But now they finally moved on an are thriving.”
Her new man, Marco, turned out to be a fraud who left her penniless.
At one point, I even felt sorry for my wife who left me and the kids and her poor choices, but I didn’t let her tears change my decision of not taking her back.
Both me and my kids deserved better.

In-law relationships can be difficult to navigate. Often, both sides feel the pressure of balancing respect for each other while protecting their boundaries. The truth is that these relationships require patience and open communication.
From the very first moment Liliya met her mother-in-law, it was obvious the elderly woman didn’t like her. She believed Liliya wasn’t good enough for her son, Igor.
He was an engineer, and Liliya seemed to be just an ordinary manager at the mall located at the city’s outskirts. Often, Liliya’s mother-in-law, Alla Sergeevna Voronova, would tell her son to leave his wife because she wasn’t worthy of his love.
These words hurt Liliya, but her love for Igor was so big that she felt like she needed to endure everything.
What neither Alla nor Igor knew was that the shopping mall where Liliya worked belonged to her parents. They also owned a number of apartments around the city.
Following their passing, it was Liliya who inherited everything.
So, one day, when Alla said she was looking for a place to rent, Liliya knew she had to put her plan to teach her MIL a lesson into action.
It wasn’t long before Liliya ran her fingers through the lines of the lease agreement. Alla never assumed she would be paying rent to the daughter-in-law she disliked so much. The deal was done through a real-estate agency so that Alla never suspected anything.
Time passed by before Alla failed to pay her rent on time. It was then that Liliya sent her an eviction notice. She somehow felt sorry for her MIL because she was her husband’s mom, but she knew Alla deserved it.
However, as she felt the pressure of her secret too big, she decided to tell Igor everything before she sent the notice. She explained to him that her parents were wealthy people and that she owned a business and several estates. Among the rest, she confessed that she also owned the apartment his mother rented.
Igor was confused, and even mad, but once Liliya explained her reasons, he said he understood her. Then, it was about time Alla also learn the truth.
Needless to say, when she received the eviction notice with her daughter-in-law’s name on it and realized she was paying rent to her for so long, she felt betrayed and angry.
Eventually, the mother-in-law understood that she treated Liliya badly and never gave her a chance.
It took time before the two women started getting along and put all their differences aside, but they knew they had to do it because of the man that meant the world to both of them, Igor.

I spent the last couple of months away from home, taking care of my sick mother. All I knew during that period were sleepless nights, bland cafeteria food, occasional hospital chair naps, and a lot of worry.
When mom finally started feeling better and it was about time I get back home, I felt relieved. Honestly, I couldn’t wait to have coffee in my kitchen, sleep in my bed, and see my husband, Michael.
However, shortly after I returned home, I received a huge surprise that almost turned my world upside down.
I entered my apartment and took a long shower, but that’s when I heard the front door open.
I was about to learn what was really going on and what he was doing while I was gone.
When we stepped food in the kitchen, the woman looked at Michael and asked, “Who is this?”
Well, that’s Michael, my husband.
Michael was looking at both of us, surely aware something odd was going on.
At that moment, the woman took her phone out and showed a photo, saying, “This is Michael.”
Well, we finally learned what was really going on. The photo was of Nick, Michael’s brother who somehow always found himself in trouble.
Michael smiled, although deep down he was mad at his brother. “That’s why Nick was so interested about my work schedule during the last couple of months,” he said.
The three of us decided to teach Nick a lesson. So, Michael called him and told him we were waiting for him for dinner. “I’ll be there in 20,” he said.
But when he knocked on the door, it was the woman, who introduced herself as Sonya, who opened the door.
As expected, Nick knew he was busted.
When we asked him why he did what he did he said the dating expenses were too big nowadays and we were not around our apartment much anyways.
Well, Sonya decided to give him another chance as long as he didn’t lie to her ever again. As of my husband, he joked with Nick that he was paying our rent for the month, making his promise he won’t give our apartment key to anyone else.

Since the start of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has become a widely discussed figure. His recent trip to Washington, D.C., which was dubbed a debacle by the media, placed him under the spotlight yet again. However, even though things have grown complicated of late for the Ukrainian leader, he has the support of his wife Olena Zelenska every step of the way.
Volodymyr and Olena have been together for many years, tying the knot on September 6, 2003. The couple have two children, Aleksandra and Kiril.
Olena Zelenska hasn’t been in the public eye as much as her husband, but she’s loved by her people.
The two first met while at university, where she was studying law. They didn’t start dating immediately as she was involved with someone else at the time, but over time, they understood they shared many interests together.
Zelenskyy, who became a comedian and rose to fame with the TV show Servant of the People, in which he played a high school teacher who became the president of the country, had Olena as a writer of the series. At the time, neither of them ever thought the series would later become a reality.
In fact, the show, which ran from 2015 to 2019, ended because Zelenskyy became the actual president of the country.
Mere months after becoming a First Lady, Olena addressed several issues, among which children’s health and reforms in school nutrition.
When the military conflict started in 2022, Olena and her children stayed in Ukraine.
“I will not have panic and tears,” Olena Zelenska wrote on Instagram at the time. “I will be calm and confident. My children are looking at me. I will be next to them. And next to my husband. And with you.”
However, as expected, the war affected their relationship. Olena and her husband were forbidden from seeing each other due to safety issues.
“But at least I can physically feel him next to me,” Zelenska said. “This isn’t normal. It’s not a normal relationship when children cannot see their father and have to talk to him on the phone. So our relationship is on pause just as it is for all Ukrainians.”
“We need to accumulate our strength, we need to save our energy,” she added.
Despite the was and their inability to be by each other’s side as much as they’d want to, the Ukrainian first lady shared with the Daily Mail that their relationship is as strong as ever.
“We’re never tired of each other, we never bore each other. And it makes the family stronger, too. It’s not a normal life for any person to live in a country at war. It’s a constant psychological burden and pressure. I hope when this pressure is relieved, with our victory, we will be able to stay sane and we’ll be fine. However, now I think that we are as close as ever emotionally,” Olena said.
She added: “And we understand each other very well. In fact, it is very important that you can respect your nearest and dearest. I am sure love is not enough. And I am happy that I can respect my husband because it would have been very hard to stay with him, even given huge love, if I hadn’t believed in his honesty.”
Olena Zelenska urged the world not to forget who started the war, asking their country to receive the much-needed support.
“Instead of stopping the aggressor and ensuring that he can never harm anyone again, discussions begin about some so-called mutually beneficial dialogue with him. This is a distortion of reality, a blurring of morality. And it is an extremely dangerous situation for everyone,” she said on the Italian political and news talk show Quarta Repubblica.
“We are not fighting for kilometers. We are fighting for our people in the occupied territories. These kilometers are their homes, their jobs, their schools, their familiar streets. These people have the right to live in their country without fear. We cannot leave them in danger.”
The Ukrainian government claimed that Russia has abducted over 19,000, and according to Olena, only 1,227 children have been returned.
“Unfortunately, this is not a mechanism that works consistently. That is why the International Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian Children was created – to ensure that such a mechanism exists and operates. Today, 41 countries are already part of this coalition,” she concluded.

When it comes to our diet, we should be mindful that the food we choose to consume affects our health and overall well-being. Opting for a balanced diet helps ensure our body gets all the necessary nutrients. Some foods, however, can be dangerous, such as cassava, which is labeled “world’s deadliest food.”
Cassava is a root vegetable rich in Vitamin C and copper. It is native to Central and South America, and is highly popular throughout the tropics. In fact, it is used the same way as the potato.
The top producing countries of this highly consumed vegetable are Nigeria, Thailand, and Indonesia.
It is believed that cassava is consumed by over 500 million people worldwide. However, if eaten raw, it can pose risks due to the harmful compounds it contains.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), around 200 people die due to consumption of cassava annually.
This led cassava to be dubbed “the world’s deadliest food.”
“Cassava tubers contain a varying quantity of cyanogenic glucosides which protect the root against attack by animals and insects. Appropriate processing before consumption can reduce cyanogenic glucoside content of cassava. When high cyanogenic cassava is not processed correctly, high dietary cyanide exposure occurs,” a research published by WHO states.”
“This often happens during times of famine and war. Cyanide in cassava is associated with acute cyanide poisoning and several diseases including konzo.
“Konzo is an irreversible spastic paraparesis of sudden onset, associated with the consumption of bitter cassava 22, 23 and a low protein intake. It is a disease of extreme poverty. Konzo mostly occurs in epidemics, but sporadic cases are also reported.”
If cooked and consumed properly and moderately – by soaking peeled cassava in water 24 hours before preparation, or by boiling it and drying it in the sun – cassava is a significant source of carbs, fiber, vitamins, and minerals.

Scientists raise concerns over the increased threat levels for three US volcanoes, Alaska’s Great Sitkin and Mount Spurr, along with Hawaii’s Kilauea.
Following the seismic activity increase, the US Geological Survey (USGS) is keeping Alaska’s Great Sitkin volcano on a watch list, which is the third level on a four-tier warning system, due to it “exhibiting heightened or escalating unrest.” The volcano
This week, lava started erupting from the volcano’s summit and a few small earthquakes were felt in the past day.
Alaska’s Great Sitkin/ Alaska Volcano Observatory
Regarding Mount Spurr, which is located 75 miles west of Anchorage, scientists believe there is a 50-50 chance of eruption.
Hawaii’s Kilauea also erupted this week, marking it’s ninth episode since December 23. The latest eruption saw lava shooting 300 feet into the air within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Residential areas haven’t been affected, but still, authorities remain cautious of the the risks of ash clouds and volcanic glass.
There are 169 active volcanoes on the territory of The United States of America.
As per the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO), the seismic activity is the result of presence of magma beneath the volcano. This is a sign that an eruption is imminent.
The factors experts monitor in order to predict any changes in the volcanos’ behavior include seismic activity, ground deformation, volcanic gasses, and thermal emissions.

Scientists mapped danger zones and communities around Great Sitkin, Mount Spurr, and Kilauea that are of greatest risk in case of an eruption. In Alaska, Great Sitkin poses a threat to the Aleutian Islands, with ash clouds possibly disrupting flights and covering nearby towns.
Mount Spurr could affect travel, power infrastructure, and air quality at Alaska’s largest city, Anchorage, while in Hawaii, Kilauea’s activity in Volcanoes National Park raises concerns about lava flows and hazardous gases forcing evacuations.
Residents should stay informed and alert of any potential eruptions.

In a move that’s turned quite a few heads, Trump calls Trudeau Governor instead of “Prime Minister” – and it’s already fueling tension between the two leaders. The U.S. president didn’t hold back while responding to Canada’s new retaliatory tariffs, slapping an undermining title on his North American neighbor’s head of government.
Escalating Tariffs Spark a War of Words
Recently, President Donald Trump announced tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, claiming they need to be “held accountable for illegal immigration and drug trafficking.” Canada got hit with a 25 percent tax on its exports to the U.S., plus a 10 percent tariff on energy products. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fired back by slapping American imports with a matching 25 percent charge. While the trade standoff was enough to raise eyebrows, Trump calls Trudeau Governor to mock him on social media, hinting he sees the Canadian leader as more of a subordinate than a fellow head of state.
Trump’s Unapologetic Nicknaming
In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: “Please explain to Governor Trudeau, of Canada, that when he imposes new tariffs on the U.S., we’ll match it immediately!” Observers saw this pointed choice of words as a direct dig, undermining Trudeau’s office as Prime Minister. Trudeau was quick to respond in the press, slamming the U.S. for “starting a trade war with its closest partner,” questioning Trump’s logic in one breath while referencing how the White House approaches relations with Russia in another. And let’s not forget, this friction comes right after Trump’s public scuffle with other world leaders – from Zelenskyy to a push to rename the Gulf of Mexico and clamp down on birthright citizenship.
Fallout and International Reaction
The feud between the United States and Canada has already rattled supply chains and stoked fears among businesses on both sides of the border. As if these developments weren’t enough, China’s also incensed, threatening to retaliate after tariffs on its goods soared to 20 percent. Mexico hasn’t sat idle either – though it’s balancing carefully between economic concerns and political alliances. By labeling Canada’s PM a mere “governor,” the White House signals it’s ready to keep raising the stakes. As Trump calls Trudeau Governor repeatedly, tensions only seem to grow. Whether they’ll cool down or spiral into a full-blown trade war remains the burning question.

Ever since my father’s passing, I’ve been incredibly overwhelmed with the idea to have his company running. He had built Riverside Developments from the ground up and I felt the urge to keep his legacy alive. Sadly, along the way, I neglected what was even more important, my own family.
As I was pouring myself coffee in the morning, my son, Jordan, greeted me. “Mom, I’m going to school.” I greeted him back and offered him a lift, but he refused.
Jordan was unusually quiet during the past couple of weeks, but I was so busy with my work that I haven’t had the time to talk to him and ask him if there was something that bothered him.
Then, one day, although aware I was invading his privacy, I decided to check on his room.
As I was going through his things, I spotted diapers in my son’s backpack.
“Why would Jordan need diapers?” I couldn’t stop asking myself. He was just 15, no one in the family had a baby, and I wasn’t aware of any of his friends having one either. So, instead of confronting him about it, I decided to follow him the following morning.
Jordan headed to school, but then he turned towards an unknown street. At the end of that tiny street was an old house. I expected Jordan to knock on that door, but instead, he took a key out of his pocket and opened the door himself.
My son had a key to someone else’s house. What was going on?
I was curious to learn the truth, so I rang the doorbell.
At that moment, Jordan appeared at the door, holding a baby in his arms.
“Jordan, honey, what is going on? Whose baby is this?” And then, behind him stood a man.
It was Simon, a man in his 60s that I fired some three months ago. He was asking for too many days off and I had to let him go.
What I wasn’t aware of, however, was that his daughter, Lisa, left her baby to him and disappeared from their lives.
Jordan turned out to be aware of Simon’s condition. He felt sorry for Simon and believed me firing him was the reason why he was left without any income.
Jordan was helping him with money. He was also babysitting baby Aaron whenever Simon needed to work there and then.
At that moment, tears started running down my face. How could I sack a man who was left to care for his baby grandson all by himself. I should have known better than that.
But Jordan was there to step in and “cover” for my mistake. I was proud of the young man I raised.
I offered Simon his position in my late father’s company again, and I even started helping him. From that moment on, I became more interested in my employees. I was no longer just a company owner, but also their support and friend.
The diapers in my son’s backpack led to a revelation that made me a better person.

You wouldn’t believe the nerve: parents demanded house keys to a home I’d been helping pay off for years. My late partner, Jason, had worked tirelessly to afford that place—a milestone he proudly reached a decade ago. Four years ago, everything changed when he was diagnosed with cancer, and as his health took a turn, I stepped in to cover the mortgage. Little did I know that once cancer claimed his life, his estranged mom and dad would reappear, convinced the property was theirs to claim.
The Shocking Home Invasion Attempt
A month ago, they showed up out of nowhere, accompanied by a flashy lawyer. With zero compassion or even a simple “How are you holding up?” they demanded the keys. Their tone and sense of entitlement made my stomach churn. But I kept my cool. They had no clue I possessed a legal background. I quietly let them talk until they were done making threats, all the while thinking, “Wait until you read the letter Jason left for you.” After all, parents demanded house keys, but it wasn’t going to be that easy.
Jason’s Final Words
“He did leave you an inheritance,” I said, calmly sliding a sealed envelope across the table. Their eyes gleamed, smug and satisfied—until they read what Jason had to say. The letter revealed the harsh truth: in a legally binding document, he’d left them absolutely nothing. They’d abandoned him years ago, never showing up when he needed them most. And now, in death, he’d made sure they wouldn’t waltz in and take a single thing from the life he’d built. Their reaction was pure rage—heated demands to hand over the house, as if that letter had never existed.
My One Condition
Their fury only fueled my resolve. They might have wanted me to hand over the property by default, but I refused without fulfilling one condition: they had to read Jason’s note out loud, acknowledging his words in front of everyone. At that moment, parents demanded house keys once more, but the grief in their voices suggested they finally grasped how badly they’d hurt him. Still, I stood firm. This house meant more than bricks and a mortgage—it symbolized the love and commitment I shared with Jason in his final years.
Why I Walked Away
After they finished reading and sputtering angry retorts, I reminded them that the house legally belonged to me now. If they had known anything real about Jason—beyond chasing his money—they could’ve approached with empathy, not aggression. With that, I left them standing there, locked the door, and took a moment to breathe. Yes, parents demanded house keys, but compassion and support can’t be forced. If they’d loved him properly while he was alive, they wouldn’t have had to beg for anything after he was gone.

Forty years ago, four best friends made a pact to meet again no matter what. When friends reunite 40 years later, three show up at the appointed beach—only to discover a note from the fourth friend saying he won’t come. Determined not to lose him forever, they set out on a journey to find out why he disappeared.
A Promise Made at Sunset
On a golden evening at Santa Monica beach, high school buddies Ben, Todd, Willie, and Karl sat on an old wooden bench. They were fresh out of school, excited yet anxious about their separate paths. Karl was set to leave for Spain, Ben had college in New York, and Todd aimed for Mexico, while Willie alone stayed in L.A. They wrote down addresses and phone numbers, but Willie wanted more. He urged them to return on the same day, at the same beach, but in 40 years. Laughter and skepticism filled the air. Then they sealed the promise with a final group hug.
Decades Apart
As life rolled on, the four led very different lives. Willie founded an IT company in Silicon Valley, Todd became a seasoned sailor before taking over his dad’s bait shop, and Ben rose to fame as a top lawyer. But they never forgot the vow that day by the ocean, even though Karl’s trail went cold years earlier. Whenever they tried contacting him, they hit a dead end. Still, they clung to hope that friends reunite 40 years later would include Karl eventually.
A Shocking Note
On the long-awaited date, Willie stood at Santa Monica beach, heart pounding with nostalgia. Soon, Todd arrived, then Ben. Karl, however, was nowhere in sight. Instead, they found a pinned note on their old bench:
“Todd, Ben, Willie, I’m sorry I lost your numbers. I’ve arranged for this letter to reach you. I hope you’re all doing well. I’m not coming, but I love you guys more than anything. Don’t wait for me. —Karl”
Concerned and confused, the three scurried off to Karl’s nephew Andrew for clues. Andrew admitted Karl had left the note with him. Sensing something was really wrong, friends reunite 40 years later turned into a rescue mission. They flew to Spain, chasing the last known address Andrew provided.
A Painful Reunion
They found Karl’s modest, nearly abandoned home. He opened the door using a crutch, looking frail and older beyond his years. Overcome with emotions, they hugged him. Karl confessed he’d suffered financial ruin and a spinal injury years ago, and he’d been too ashamed to admit it to them. By inventing tales of business success, he hoped they’d never pity him. Instead, his lies drove them apart.
Willie was furious. “We would have helped you, Karl! That’s what friends do.” Yet, behind the anger was relief to see he was still alive. Ben, Todd, and Willie insisted Karl return to Los Angeles for proper medical care. Todd even offered him a role at his bait shop afterward.
The Power of True Friendship
Karl, teary-eyed, hesitated but realized he couldn’t continue alone. Grateful and humbled, he packed his things. At the airport, Willie proposed another vow: “No more secrets. Let’s meet at this beach every June 11 until the end.” Smiling through tears, Karl agreed, understanding that, even when friends reunite 40 years later, life’s biggest blessing is a bond unbroken by time.

Yet again, Jimmy Kimmel called President Donald Trump, this time regarding his long speech in front of the Congress, which was the first since he has taken Office for the second time, and a claim Trump made about Biden financing making mice transgender.
The comedian questioned Trump’s and his administration’s ability to fact check, asking “Are they so dumb they don’t know how to google?”
“[Trump] spoke for 99 minutes last night with no intermission. It was the longest Presidential address in more than 60 years,” Jimmy Kimmel began his opening monologue. “Why is it that the orchestra can play off an Oscar winner but not the president?”
Kimmel then added: “Trump’s speech went on so long, his speech was ten minutes longer than The Lion King. True, and had twice as much lyin’ in it.”
ABC
The host spoke of Trump’s claim that the Biden administration spent $8 million on making mice transgender, which according to Kimmel and a number of outlets, isn’t a true fact.
“You know, you hear the president of the United States say we’re spending $8 million to do sex change operations on mice,” Kimmel said. “You say, ‘Well, I’m sure he’s exaggerating, but there must be something there.‘ Turns out there’s not. It’s not real.”
He went on to explain, “The government spent money on transgenic mice, which are genetically modified mice they use in lab tests to study disease.
”It has nothing to do with being transgender. Other than the word, the ‘trans’ part of the word. You think they know this and just ignore it, or are they so dumb they don’t know how to Google? Or maybe they think we’re so dumb we don’t know how to Google? I don’t know.”
Kimmel then joked, “They’re turning Mickeys into Minnies and Minnies into Mickeys!” before adding, “No, they’re just trying to cure dementia and heart disease, which you would think Trump would be for seeing as how they are both coming for him real soon.”
As per the Daily Beast, the spendings Trump referred to in his speech was actually money spent on testing “differences in the ways an HIV vaccine worked in mice that had received cross-sex hormone therapy.”
Kimmel then shifted focus on the lead of the Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk and his X-based AI tool, Grok that the tech-billionaire allegedly use to determine which federal employees to fire.

Before Donald Trump addressed the lawmakers for the first time as a president of the country, a role he has undertaken for the second time, he had a brief exchange with Bush-appointed Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts.
Trump’s words to Roberts caused a stir on the social media and triggered a number of rumors and conspiracy theories, pretty much as expected, we’d say.
As Donald Trump and Justice John Roberts shook hands and the president gave the judge a friendly pat on the arm, the microphone that was on revealed a chunk of their conversation.
“Thank you again. Thank you again. Won’t forget it,” Trump said.

Following the “incident,” The Daily Beast suggested a conspiracy that arose from the hot mic revelation, as reported by the Daily Mail. “It was not immediately clear what, exactly, Trump was thanking him for,” the publication stated before adding, “though [there] have been more than a few instances over the past few years of Supreme Court intervention in favor of the president.”
Author Paul Blumenthal argued, “Roberts gave Trump a get-out-of-jail-free card, and Trump is grateful.
“Whatever decisions are forthcoming from the court on Trump’s unlawful administration are now tainted by Trump’s gratitude to Roberts. He ripped the mask off the court’s pretensions to fairness and independence and revealed his most vital accomplice.”
President Trump took to Truth Social to comment on the speculations.
“The Fake ‘Play the Ref’ News, in order to create a divide between me and our great U.S. Supreme Court, heard me say last night, loudly and openly as I was walking past the Justices on the way to the podium, ‘thank you’, to Chief Justice John Roberts,” Trump wrote.
“Like most people, I don’t watch Fake News CNN or MSDNC, but I understand they are going ‘crazy’ asking what is it that I was thanking Justice Roberts for?”
He went on, “They never called my office to ask, of course, but if they had I would have told these sleazebag ‘journalists’ that I thanked him for SWEARING ME IN ON INAUGURATION DAY, AND DOING A REALLY GOOD JOB IN SO DOING! The Fake News never quits!”
During his address to Congress, Trump said that the ongoing war in Ukraine is on the top of the list of his priorities, alleging the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is “gambling with World War 3.”

With his declaration that his political style was “just getting started,” President Donald Trump addressed the Congress on March 4, 2025, for the first time during his second terms as head of the country. But it was JD Vance that attracted the attention to the online community. Well, not as much as Trump’s words to lawmakers, but still.
Namely, JD Vance has found himself in the middle of a number of controversies. Among the rest, he made many angry with his statement that rogue judges have no jurisdiction over President Donald Trump’s “legitimate power.” Political experts and senators saw this as a form of the vice-president spreading a message that the Trump’s administration won’t comply to court orders.
This time, however, it was the pants of JD Vance that had many talking.
According to the netizens, JD Vance seems to be having a thing for three-quarter-length pants. He can be seen wearing a rather “short” pants during his public appearances, whether it is a news conference or a high-profile political event.
“What is with JD Vance short tight pants as he talks about real men and masculinity?” someone posted on X.
“Say hello to tiny pants vance,” someone else commented, alongside a photo of Vance at the recent Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). The photo shows his pants being just inches below his knees.
The rest of the comments were “Hold me closer tiny pantser,” and “Make pants great again for VANCE!”

The online community started mocking Vance by sharing photos of him with his short pants under the hashtag #TinyPantsVance.
“How can anyone take Vance seriously. His trousers are halfway up his legs,” a user joked.
“People might (might) listen if you got a pair of big-boy-vance pants. A pair that at least break on the foot arch and go mid-heel, not mid-calf, just who the hell dresses you,” another person posted.
Greenland responded to the statement by Donald Trump that The United States will acquire their territory “one way or another,” with their Prime Minister, Múte Bourup Egede, writing “Kalaallit Nunaat is ours,” using Greenlandic for the “Land of People” or the “Land of Greenlanders,” as per AP.
Egede added: “We don’t want to be Americans, nor Danes; we are Kalaallit. The Americans and their leader must understand that. We are not for sale and cannot simply be taken. Our future will be decided by us in Greenland.”
His response, which was initially written in Greenlandic and Danish before being updated to include English, came following Trump’s message to the people of Greenland delivered on March 4.
Addressing the Congress, the POTUS said, “If you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America.
“We need Greenland for national security and even international security.
“And we’re working with everybody involved to try and get it. But we need it really for international world security.”
Further, he said, “We strongly support your right to determine your own future, and if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America. We will keep you safe. We will make you rich. And together we will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before,” before adding: “And I think we’re going to get it – one way or the other, we’re going to get it.”

Greenland is an autonomous country within the Kingdom of Denmark on several islands including world’s largest island by the same name.
It has been part of the Danish Kingdom for 800 years and is an integrated part of its country.
Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen said he doesn’t believe Greenlanders’ wish is to separate from Denmark in order to become “an integrated part of America,” adding that the elections in Greenland that are to take place next week should be fair and free of international intervention.

As I sat by my mother’s bedside, I heard the nurse saying that it could be any moment now. She said that they sometimes hold on for one last thing, and I had no idea what my dying mom had been holding on. Her final words changed everything!
When she finally opened her eyes and looked at me with softness I hadn’t seen in years, she whispered, “Your father is alive!”
But before I could ask her anything, she was gone, and I was left with the weight of those final words.
Mom’s funeral was small, attended by a couple of neighbors and some family members. During those moment, I grieved for the parent I lost, but at the same time I couldn’t stop thinking about the parent that was still alive and my mom’s final words.
For as long as I could remember my mother told me that my dad died in a car accident before I was even born. Except that, she never talked about him, ever. No matter how much I wanted to learn about the man he was, she would always change the topic, and it wasn’t until now that I understood there was more to the story.
After the funeral, I headed to my mom’s place and went through her belongings. There, among a bunch of papers, I found a letter. In it, she wrote that she never meant to lie to me, she was just too scared to tell me the truth. “If you want to learn more about your father, start with the boxes at the attic,” she wrote.
Those old boxes I didn’t even knew existed until then were filled with papers, letters, and old photos. One of the photos featuring a man in his late 20’s had the name Ramon written on it. On the back, a name of a city some 30 km away from mom’s house was written: Northstar Harbor.
In a letter Ramon sent to my mom, he wrote: “Dear Celia, I know you have fears I will disappoint you, but please don’t shut me out. Let’s give our relationship another chance for the sake of our child.”
I needed answers, and I definitely needed a closure, so before long, I found myself driving to Northstar Harbor.
With my dad’s black and white photo in my hand, I went from person to person asking them if anyone knew him, but they all shook their heads.
With my expectations low, I entered a local weather-beaten bait shop. The clerk, an elderly woman, said she believed she knew the man after seeing the photo. “I’ve seen him around. He used to come to my shop with a friend. I believe he once bragged he had a child. He lives in that small house at the end of Bayside Road, I think,” she said.
My heart started pounding. I was about to meet my father, and honestly, I had no idea what to expect.
When I knocked on the house’s door, a man opened it. “How can I help you?” he asked. Barely finding the strength to speak, I asked him: “Are you Ramon?”
He said yes, and that’s when I told him that I thought I was his daughter.
To my astonishment, he showed no surprise. It was as though he was waiting for this moment to take place for way too long.
“I always wondered if I would ever see you,” he said as he welcomed me in.
My father wasn’t a bitter man. He was just someone who led a life filled with obstacles and who didn’t believe would provide me with the life he knew I deserved.
“Your mom was afraid to give us a chance,” he said and explained that he struggled financially and started drinking eventually. He was sober for quite some time, but he couldn’t gather the courage to look for me because he believed he didn’t have anything to offer.
That evening, Phillip Granger was having dinner with his wife Mara at a fancy restaurant.
Mara had just sealed a deal, and they were out to celebrate her success.
Their lives were calm. They never argued or got mad at one another. The truth was that their marriage was a picture perfect one. Phillip loved Mara unconditionally, and she loved him back just equally.
As they enjoyed the quiet night, a woman, who seemed disturbed, approached them and threw her glass of wine on Phillip, yelling, “So you had work tonight? An emergency operation, huh? TRAITOR! It’s all over between us!”
He was shocked. He had never seen that woman before.
However, before he could even say anything, the woman fled the restaurant.
“Honey, I don’t know who she is,” he turned to his wife, still in total confusion of the incident.
Mara didn’t say a word. She stood up and ran towards the woman.
“Wait!” she yelled.
The woman asked, “Are you his girlfriend?” to what Mara replied, “No, I’m his wife, and I want to know how you know my husband.”
The woman replied: “He’s married!? I swear this is the last time I’m going out with a doctor! To hell with you, Ralf!”
“Ralf?” Mara asked, confused. “But my husband’s name is Phillip, and he’s not a doctor.”
The woman couldn’t believe Mara was telling the truth. “But he looks so much like Ralf, I can swear he’s the same person.”
Before catching a taxi, embarrassed by the incident she had made, the woman handed Mara a piece of paper with Ralf’s number written on it. “Call this man, it’s insane how much he looks like your husband.”
Mara’s heart started racing. She knew Phillip was adopted, so could this Ralf guy be his brother?
A few days later, Phillip gathered the courage to call the number. He explained how he got the number and wanted to know more about Ralf.
What Ralf had to say changed Phillip’s life forever. He was also adopted, and they were born on the same day, at the same hospital.
The two arranged to meet. Looking at Ralf, it felt like Philip was looking in the mirror. The resemblance was incredible, almost insanely uncanny.
There was no need for a DNA test for these two men to know they were long lost brothers.
But there was more to the story. Ralf said that he knew he had a sibling, but not one. It turned out their mother gave birth to five children, but the quintuplets were separated at birth and given up for adoption. Until that moment, Ralf tried to find them though hospital records, but to no avail.
The two brothers took a selfie and shared it on the social media along with their story.
Miraculously, their plea to find the rest of their siblings went viral. It didn’t take long before they were reunited with the rest of their brothers, one of which was living with their birth mother.
When their mom gave birth, her family forced her to give her children up for adoption, and only keep one.
It is incredible how a simple misunderstanding during a quiet night at a restaurant could lead to an incredible revelation that changed the lives of so many people.

Knowing how much pride my brother had, I knew he was in real trouble when he called me one day and asked for money.
Apparently, he couldn’t paid the mortgage and was about to lose the house, so I didn’t hesitate when I wired him $5,000 the following day.
Weeks passed by and I didn’t hear from him. No update on the house, nothing. And then, as I was scrolling through the news feed on Facebook, I saw a couple of posts from his wife. She and my brother were on a luxurious vacation on the Bahamas. Fancy resort, cocktails, you name it. And the caption? “Much-needed getaway! Living our best life!”
Reading that shocked me.
From losing the home to spending a fortune on a getaway?
A couple of days later, I stopped by his place. His wife welcomed me as though I was a distant relative. “We didn’t expect you,”she said.
Once inside, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Not only they weren’t losing their house, but they apparently renovated the entire place. New rugs, carpets, and even a brand new espresso machine on the kitchen counter.
I wanted to make sure my brother knew that I was mad at him for lying to me.
It wasn’t about the money he kept assuring me he would return to me.
Following our meeting, we hadn’t spoke in months, and then, one day, he called me.
“Listen, I knew I made a huge mistake and I’m very sorry. I sold some of the furniture, including the coffee machine, and I’m paying you back part of the money.”
He did repay part of the money, I could see he was trying and was sorry for what he did.
Carl Dean, the husband of country music legend Dolly Parton, dies aged 82. The couple had been married for nearly 60 years.
According to a statement issued by Parton, Dean died Monday in Nashville, Tennessee, as per the Associated Press.
The cause of death remains unknown.
Dolly Parton/dollyparton.com
The news was also shared on Dolly’s Instagram account. “Carl Dean, husband of Dolly Parton, passed away March 3rd in Nashville at the age of 82. He will be laid to rest in a private ceremony with immediate family attending. He was survived by his siblings Sandra and Donnie,” the story said.
“Carl and I spent many wonderful years together. Words can’t do justice to the love we shared for over 60 years. Thank you for your prayers and sympathy,” the heartfelt message continued.
“The family has asked for privacy during this difficult time,” the post concluded.
Dolly Parton wrote about Carl Dean in her book and described him as a romantic person.
She even recalled how he hugged her so tight when she went to visit him at the army base in Georgia back in the day that her wig fell off. “He squeezed, hugged and kissed me so hard that he knocked my wig off,” the singer revealed.
They met back in 1964 outside the Wishy Washy Laundromat in Nashville, Tennessee. At the time, Dolly was 18 years of age, and Carl was 21.
“My first thought was, ‘I’m gonna marry that girl,’” Dean said in a statement of the moment he first laid eyes on Dolly, as quoted by Entertainment Tonight.
“My second thought was, ‘Lord she’s good lookin’.’ And that was the day my life began. I wouldn’t trade the last 50 years for nothing on this earth.”
At the time they tied the knot, Dolly was starting her career and her record label believed she should put the decision to marry on hold, but she refused. She and Dean married in an intimate ceremony in Ringgold, Georgia to avoid the local press in Tennessee to write about them.
It was the start of a love story that never ended.

Following the suggestion by Vice-President JD Vance that rogue judges have no jurisdiction over President Donald Trump’s “legitimate power,” a statement Elon Musk, the head of the Department of Government Efficiency agrees with, experts warn that the country may enter a “constitutional crisis” or a “breakdown of the system.”
“If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal,” Vance posted on X. “If a judge tried to command the attorney general in how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that’s also illegal.
“Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power.”
If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal.
If a judge tried to command the attorney general in how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that’s also illegal.
Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power.
The remarks issued by the Vice-President came as a response to a judge’s decision to block members of the DOGE from accessing sensitive US Treasury Department systems, BBCreports.
Ever since taking office, Trump has signed a number of executive orders, a plethora of which right after his inauguration.
However, those orders have faced numerous legal challenges.
Jamal Greene, a professor at Columbia Law School, suggests that Vance’s post signals the government’s refusal to comply with court orders
“I think the tweet, taken on its own terms, is empty because it refers to the ‘legitimate powers’ of the executive. And the whole question in these cases is whether the executive is acting legitimately or not,” Greene told NBC News.
“He has some cover in that sense,” Greene added, referring to Vance. “He hasn’t promised unlawful behavior.”
These are the words of a mad king. They are not the words of someone who cherishes and defends the separation of powers innate to our Constitution. You’re smart enough to know better, JD. You’re just too cowardly to stand up to Trump & Musk. https://t.co/kKBgSOawJm
In the past, JD Vance argued that the president has the authority to directly oppose judicial decisions aimed at limiting White House power.
“When the courts stop you, stand before the country like [early US president] Andrew Jackson did and say: ‘The chief justice has made his ruling. Now let him enforce it,'” Vance said during a 2021 podcast. He added that a future Trump administration should sack “every single midlevel bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people,” BBCreported.
JD, we both went to law school.
But we don’t have to be lawyers to know that ignoring court decisions we don’t like puts us on a dangerous path to lawlessness.
A recent video of President Donald Trump showing him having a hard time getting out of his golf cart made many question, “What’s wrong with Trump’s legs?”
The video in question was taken at Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, during a golf session. It was shared by Aleman’s Brothers LLC, a grounds-keeping company that appears to service Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, as per the Daily Mail.
“Trump moves his right leg like a piece of wood,” an X user posted. “Any geriatricians around?” asked another.
X
“What’s wrong with Trump’s legs? He’s moving knock kneed and swinging his right leg like it’s dead weight?!” a third commented.
One user wrote, ”What’s up with his right leg + foot? Looks all wobbly + pigeon-toed.”
The video triggered numerous speculations and rumors about the president’s heath, with some suggesting he could be suffering from “weak knees,” and others even pointing out to a “neuromuscular degenerative issue.”
There were also those who said Trump’s legs and his movement feel “weird” because of his age.
There’s been lots of speculation over Trump’s health recently, this recent video of him on the golf course is a cause for concern.
I think it’s only fair that Trump release his medical records.
White House Communications Director Steven Cheung responded to the speculations, dismissing them as not true. “Deranged and morally bankrupt liberals — including corrupt media — have now resorted to complete falsehoods and fabricated lies because they have no shame.
“Instead, they spend every waking hour of their pathetic lives suffering from a debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted their brain,” he said, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
This isn’t the first time people have pointed out Trump dragging his right leg.
In March of last year, MAGA critic and editor-in-chief of left-wing MeidasTouch Network Ron Filipkowski posted, “Something is definitely going on with his right leg. He’s been dragging it for months.”
Scrolling Getty and couldn’t help but notice this photo of a huge bruise on Trump’s hand today pic.twitter.com/LY9LFypsFF
The video in question emerged a week after people spotted bruises on Trump’s hands during his meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron.
Social media users believed that the bruises were due to IV infusions, thin skin, or the president’s old age. They were obviously covered with skin-colored makeup but still visible.
Trump on the other hand has bragged about his health in the past, claiming he’s been the healthiest president to ever run the country.

The 97th Annual Academy Awards gathered the most prominent Hollywood figures together for yet another memorable night.
Actress Halle Berry had her “revenge” kiss on Oscar-winner Adrien Brody on the red carpet, which saw the crowd, including Brodie’s girlfriend Georgina, clapping and laughing. The opening ceremony saw Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande shine in their full glory. Zoe Saldaña gave an emotional speech, and Conan O’Brien had his Oscar hosting debut.
The film Anora won five Oscars and owned the night, but it was the heartbreaking revelation by Goldie Hawn about a health condition that had everyone talking.
The actress was on stage alongside Andrew Garfield presenting the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film.

However, at one point, she stopped her speech, which she read from the teleprompter, and turned to Garfield with the words, “OK. Sweetheart, can you read that? I can’t read that.”
She then revealed, “I’m completely blind. I mean, I am,” explaining that she suffers from cataracts.
It is a condition that happens when the lens, a small transparent disc inside your eye, develops cloudy patches, according to NHS.
Over time these patches usually become bigger causing blurry, misty vision and eventually blindness.
They are most common at elderly people but can affect anyone.
Garfield showed just how big of a gentleman he is telling Hawn, “OK, I’ve got you,” before revealing the winner.
The response to the revelation about her health condition concerned the fans of Goldie Hawn.
A source close to the actress said she regretted sharing her condition because she didn’t mean that news to become a talking point.
“Goldie is embarrassed that the focus of her Oscar night was her vision issues, it is not something she wanted everyone talking about,” the source said, as per the Daily Mail.“She was just trying to be funny.”

When it comes to our overall well-being, the food we consume plays a key role. Through our diet, we provide our body with the essential nutrients, vitamins, fibre, and energy to get through the day.
The Standard American Diet (SAD), is “believed to contribute to the health challenges experienced in the United States, including cancer.”
According to the American Institute for Cancer Research, only about 8% of the standard American diet consists of protective foods.
The truth is that no food by itself can help in the fight against cancer, but there are several foods that are believed to help preventing it.
“Research tells us that making healthy food choices consistently over time can reduce your risk of getting cancer, but you can’t say with absolute certainty that food can prevent cancer,” says wellness dietitian Lindsey Wohlford. “There are no guarantees.”
1. Cruciferous Vegetables

Cruciferous vegetables are a diverse group of vegetables belonging to the family Brassicaceae, also called ‘Cruciferae,’ that are believed to have cancer-preventive properties. Vegetables belonging to this group are radish, arugula, bok choy, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale, daikon, and turnips, among the rest.
These are rich in isothiocyanates, compounds that reduce inflammation and deactivate cancer-causing chemicals.
Consuming these vegetables helps lowering the risks of developing certain types of cancer, including breast, esophageal, oral, and kidney cancers.
Turmeric is yet another plant that is so versatile that it’s found its way not only in the cuisines of many countries, but also in the cosmetic industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and more.
Among the rest, turmeric contains protective compounds, including curcumin, has anti-oxidant properties that may help the body combat inflammation, can help ease arthritis, can help limit the growth of cancerous cells, protects cells from damage, and reduces the signs of ageing.
3. Mushrooms
A study conducted on 36 thousand participants over several decades showed that incorporating mushrooms in the diet helps reduce the risk of developing prostate cancer. Mushrooms are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, in particular L-ergothioneine, thought to help reduce oxidative stress.
Another study suggest mushrooms may help prevent breast cancer, likely due to compounds like glutathione, ergothioneine, and polysaccharides. Medicinal varieties like reishi, turkey tail, shiitake, and maitake boost antitumor immunity, with turkey tail’s PK polysaccharide aiding cancer therapy.
Onions, shallots, leeks, and garlic are anti-cancer foods said to prevent certain cancers such as colon cancer and other cancers related to the gut.
According to a research, onion and garlic possess “promising biological activities that are indicative of their potential as potent antioxidant and anticancer agents.”
5. Wakame

Wakame is an edible type of seaweed that is believed to suppress the growth of breast cancer, colon cancer, and kidney cancer cells. The research showing these results has been performed in a lab using animals, so its properties on humans are yet to be researched.
Also, wakame contains around 42mcg of iodine per serving.
6. Lycopene-Rich Foods

Lycopene is a phytochemical, or a biologically active chemical found in plants. Since it’s not produced within the body, it’s not considered neither a vitamin nor mineral.
According to Hope Barkoukis, Ph.D., chair of the department of nutrition at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland, OH, lycopene is a potent antioxidant. “This means it can reduce the presence of harmful compounds in your body called free radicals.”
Diet rich in foods that contain lycopene, such as tomatoes and watermelons, may help reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, and other chronic diseases.
7. Beta Carotene-Rich Foods
Shutterstock
Beta-carotene rich foods include carrots, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, and other yellow-orange fruits and vegetables.
Their consumption on preventing cancer is yet to be researched further.
Research indicates that other anti-cancer foods include fatty fish like albacore tuna, salmon, herring, mussels, anchovies, and sardines. If consumed weekly, they may help lower cancer risk. This is likely due to their high vitamin D and Omega-3 fatty acids, thought to help prevent disease, including cancer.

In a parody of the widely debated meeting between Donald Trump and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Mike Myers portrayed the tech-billionaire Elon Musk.
The skit poked fun of Musk on Saturday Night Live, and the Tesla founder made sure Myers knew he didn’t found the comedy fun.
Namely, Myers, dressed as Musk in black jeans, a blazer, and a graphic t-shirt, interrupted the meeting between Trump, portrayed by James Austin Johnson, and Zelensky, played by Mikey Day.
“Donald, what are you doing in my office?” Myers’ Musk asked Trump, “You know I’m the president now, right?” then added: “I’m kidding, I’m kidding… Maybe not.”
NBC
Myers imitated Musk’s bouncing from a last years’ Trump’s rally, jumping up and down.
“They’re saying I’m firing people with no cause. But I do have cause, it’s ’cause’ I feel like it,” Myers’ Musk joked.
Mayer’s further mocked Musk’s role as a head of the Department of Government Efficiency, the government lay-offs, and the number of plane crashes.
“We’re not going to get it perfect, you know. But we are firing the non-essential employees like air traffic controllers.
“And sure, some of the planes are going to land upside down. But then the luggage falls right into your lap and you’re ready to go.”
Myers even held a chainsaw, playing on Musk’s time at the Conservative Political Action Conference when Argentina’s President Javier Milei gave him a gold-plated one.
Vance, portrayed by Yang, berated the Ukrainian leader, asking him, “What happened to thank you? You haven’t said thank you to us once in the past 15 seconds.”
He then continued, “You think you’re getting any money from us after your little outburst today?” before adding, “You get nothing. You lose. Good day, sir.”
Trump then said dismissively to Zelensky, “Who shows up to the White House in a T-shirt and jeans like a garbage person?”
While many found the skit fun, except for the MAGA supporters, it turned out Elon Musk wasn’t fond of his portrayal by Mike Myers…at all!
Replying to a comment about it on X, the SpaceX owner wrote, “Humor fails when it lies.”
“Fails? They pretty much nailed you. Now it’s even funnier when I know it hurt your feelings,” someone commented.
Another said, “Mike Myers was very funny in this skit [in my opinion],” while a third noted, “You were all ‘legalize comedy’ just a few days ago. I guess you’ve changed your mind? Because most people thought Mike Myers was spot on & hilarious.”
