Welcome to your first full day in the new Confederate States of America.Much like the old CSA, the new CSA (also known as MAGA America) is devoted to:— Making American as white as possible, — Stripping women and minorities of political and economic power, — Gutting workers’ rights, — Rigging election outcomes, — Leaders nakedly taking bribes,— Using a phony veneer of Christianity to justify brutal policies, — Making queer people invisible, — Reconfiguring schools for indoctrination, — Having militias terrorize minorities and their opponents, and, — Maintaining a government of, by, and for rich white men.Never in American history has a group of morbidly rich white men this large or with anything close to this net worth sat to watch a president 
Only one day into Donald Trump's second term, The Atlantic's David A. Graham is able to pinpoint the biggest factors that make this time around so "different" from the MAGA leader's first presidency. Noting that, in 24 hours, the 47th president of the United States has already "pardoned more than 1,500 January 6 rioters, including some involved in violence," moved "to end birthright citizenship," removed the US from the "World Health Organization, attempted to turn large portions of the civil service into patronage jobs, and issued an executive order defining gender as a binary," Graham submits these actions "would have caused wi

President Donald Trump didn't waste any time pardoning nearly all of those charged and convicted in connection with the January 6, 2021 insurrection. Now, one legal expert is arguing that despite the pardons, the newly minted president isn't any closer to achieving the central goal of the pardons.In a statement posted to the official White House website, Trump wrote that he intended to correct "a grave national injustice that has been perpetrated upon the American people over the last four years" and that he hoped to begin "a process of national reconciliation." But Lawfare editor-in-chief Benjamin Wittes
Critics are blasting President Donald Trump following his reaction to the inaugural national prayer service in Washington Tuesday. C-SPAN shared a video of the MAGA leader leaving the service — which took place at the Washington National Cathedral — writing: "President Trump following National Prayer Service: 'Not too exciting, was it. I didn't think it was a good service. No...They can do much better.'"Former CNN political analyst Marc Lamont Hill replied: I thought this was a joke at first.READ MORE: 'God have mercy on us': GOP rep slammed over 'dangerous' response to bishop’s plea to Trumphost Roland Martin 
The Trump administration has canceled President Joe Biden’s ban on federal immigration agents arresting suspects inside schools, churches, houses of worship, hospitals, shelters, and at events such as weddings, funerals, and public demonstrations and protests.“This action empowers the brave men and women in CBP and ICE to enforce our immigration laws and catch criminal aliens— including murders [sic] and rapists—who have illegally come into our country. Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest,” an unnamed DHS spokesperson said in a statement Tuesday, posted by CBS News’s Camilo Montoya-Galvez. “The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our bra
During President Donald Trump's inauguration festivities, Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) reportedly tried to build goodwill with a top member of the administration. But she apparently identified the wrong person.The American Spectator's "Cockburn" (a pseudonymous personality named after British Admiral Sir George Cockburn) wrote Tuesday that they personally witnessed Boebert attempt for several hours to woo Trump's White House Chief of Staff. Cockburn dryly referred to the Colorado Republican as the "socialite of the weekend," saying she "spent a decent chunk of Saturday’s America First Policy Institute ball trying to ingratiate
The Right Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, the Episcopal bishop of Washington — who led the inaugural prayer service Washington, DC Tuesday received fierce backlash from a Republican congressman after asking President Donald Trump to "have mercy" on LGBTQ people and immigrants. “In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now,” said Budde, as Trump, Vice President Vance, and their families looked on. "There are gay, lesbian and transgender children in Democratic, Republican and independent families. Some who fear for their lives. They may not be citizens or have the proper documentation, but the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals. They pay taxes and are good neighbors. They are faithful members of our churches and mosques, synagogues."READ MORE: 
Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk – who is one of President Donald Trump's top advisors — went viral on Monday for throwing up a gesture described by a fascism expert as a "Nazi salute." Now, a leading German newspaper is criticizing both the gesture itself and the American press for trivializing it.In an op-ed published in Tuesday's edition of Berlin's Die Zeit newspaper, journalist Lenz Jacobsen said it was clear that anyone "who raises their right arm in a sweeping and diagonal manner several times during a political speech in front of a partly right-wing extremist audience is doing the Hitler salute," and that there

IDC posted its latest report on the foldable market in China, and it shows that Huawei dominated in the last quarter of 2024. 48.6% of the 2.505 million shipped units were made by the Shenzhen-based company, while Honor was a distant second with a 20.6% market share.
However, interest in foldables seems to have faded, as shipments were almost 10% lower than in the same period 12 months ago.

Last week, Qualcomm listed a version of its flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite with one less CPU performance core, which is expected to make its debut on upcoming phones later this year. It remains to be seen how Qualcomm will market the "new" SoC, which is listed with the SM8750-3-AB identifier.
Tipster Yogesh Brar believes that this chip will be used on the upcoming crop of Slim and foldable phones. For reference, Samsung is expected to launch a Galaxy S25 Slim, which is rumored to measure 6.4 mm and more Android OEMs are expected to hop on the Slim trend later this year.

Samsung is launching three Galaxy S25 phones today in San Jose, California. Just mere hours before the official unveiling, the phones were spotted in their retail boxes. The image from IR Iran confirms the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra will ship in thin boxes with no charger in sight.
We also get to see the gray paint job of the vanilla Galaxy S25, the dark blue S25+, and the Titanium Ice Blue version of the S25 Ultra in the flesh for the first time.
The rounded edges of the Ultra are clearly visible, and there is still room for an S Pen. The S25 will have 128 GB...
Samsung is doing final preparations for today’s Galaxy Unpacked event that will bring the new Galaxy S25 series. The big show will be livestreamed, so you can join us in experiencing the reveal in real time.
You probably already have a pretty good idea of what upcoming S25 phones will be like. This close to the event, we’re still not 100% sure how it will be structured – will Samsung unveil three phones or four?
For a refresher on what (we think) is coming, you can read our What to Expect articles for the Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra. We have a similar article for the Galaxy S25...

Thus, you should expect better colors in photos taken in Master mode, enhanced...
Nothing loves cryptic teasers, as it's doled out at least one for pretty much all of its product launches in the past. Today the company is back with another one. Take a look:
pic.twitter.com/zhcmw0cW3i— Nothing (@nothing) January 21, 2025
As someone in the comments noted, the launch date of whatever Nothing product is coming next could be February 9 since Arcanine has nine in the name, or we can go by its Pokédex number of 58.
In that case, the launch could take place on the 58th day of the year, which is February 27, or in 58 days from today, which would be March 20.

Samsung is announcing the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra at its big Unpacked event tomorrow, and ahead of that a new leak brings us some information about the company's pre-order deal for the trio.
Unsurprisingly (since Samsung has already done this a few times before), it looks like you'll get a free storage upgrade, at least in France where this rumor originates.
So, you will be able to pre-order an S25 for €899 (down from €959) with 256GB of storage or €959 with 512GB (down from €1,079), an S25+ for €1,169 with 512GB (down from €1,289), and an S25 Ultra for €1,469...
