The Republicans have wanted to privatize Social Security and Medicare pretty much since the start of both safety-net programs. They have tried a few times, most memorably after the 2004 presidential election, and every time they did, they got zapped.Things are different now. The Republicans have a felon in the White House who is not afraid of political blowback the same way George W. Bush was. Donald Trump is not afraid of anything, as the Supreme Court has declared him infallible, immunizing him against criminal liability, permitting him to break any law he damn well pleases. Indeed, he’s already r
Elon Musk, required by federal law to file financial disclosures as he rampages across government, doesn't want anybody else looking at this tax returns. Neither does Donald Trump, the first president or presidential candidate in decades who refused to reveal his tax returns.But they don't feel the same way about your tax returns, or mine, or the private financial and banking information of hundreds of millions of other Americans. The billionaire and his president are now demanding that the Internal Revenue Service provide access to its highly confidential data systems for Musk's unvetted aides in the Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE, according to reports in the Washington Post and th
— The most horrifying news story of the day: Ukraine can’t fight the war against Russia without the Starlink Internet system to guide their weaponry and for communication.

First it was Musk, at an event after Trump’s inauguration, throwing a Nazi salute twice. Then, Thursday, Steve Bannon 
The Trump administration has begun dismantling the nation’s defenses against foreign interference in voting, a sweeping retreat that has alarmed state and local election officials.
The administration is shuttering the FBI’s Foreign Influence Task Force and last week cut more than 100 positions at the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. President Donald Trump signed the law creating the agency in 2018. Among its goals is helping state and local officials protect voting systems.
Secretaries of state and municipal clerks fear those moves could expose voter registration databases and ot
The total number of federal government workers who will lose their jobs because of mass layoffs being pushed by the second Trump Administration and the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) remains to be seen. But according to reporting from the Washington Post and Newsweek, the number could be as high as 200,000.In an 
President Donald Trump and his MAGA allies have never been shy about trolling liberals and progressives as well as traditional conservatives and Never Trumpers. And some Democrats are urging Trump's critics to avoid responding to every outrageous thing he says or does and be more selective in their criticism. Steve Bannon, host of the "War Room" vodcast and former White House chief strategist for the first Trump Administration, famously described MAGA's approach as "flood the zone with s---" — meaning create as much chaos as possible if order to overwhelm and exhaust political opponents. And the Washington's Aaron Blake, in a 
When Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker took office in January 2024, she made it clear that tackling the city's drug problem was a high priority — especially in Kensington, a neighborhood that is notorious for its abundance of addicts. The New York Times' Jennifer Percy, in an article published in 2018, detailed Kensington's struggle with heroin addiction. But Kensington, like the so-called "Methadone Mile" in Boston, is also infamous for crack cocaine. And another drug that plagues Kensington is xylazine, known on the streets as "tranq."Tranq is often referred to as the "zombie drug" because of the way it impairs the user's ability to stand up straight.

A push by Republican attorneys general in 17 states to strike down part of a federal law that protects disabled people from discrimination has prompted an outcry from advocates, parents and some local officials.

When President Donald Trump nominated Christopher Wray for FBI director in July 2017 after firing James Comey from that position, Wray enjoyed strong bipartisan support and was confirmed in a 92-5 vote. Only a handful of Democrats voted against Wrap. But on Thursday, February 20, 2025, not one Democrat voted in favor of making far-right Trump loyalist Kash Patel FBI director. Nonetheless, Patel was narrowly confirmed, with only two GOP senators — Alaska's Lisa Murkowski and Maine's Susan Collins — joining Democrats in voting against Patel.Former FBI special agent Frank Figliuzzi and former CIA Director John O. Brennan discussed Patel's confirmation during a

A YouTuber from Spain obtained a fully operational Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge smartphone and made a hands-on video, comparing it to the Galaxy Z Fold6. We've all read the rumors in the past few weeks, suggesting the device's thickness is 5.84mm. And it looks like it's true.
The YouTuber holds the S25 Edge right next to the Galaxy Z Fold6, and the former seems ever so slightly thicker than the Z Fold6 when unfolded. In an unfolded state, Samsung's foldable measures 5.6mm in thickness, so it looks like the S25 Edge is indeed somewhere between 5.6 and 6.0mm thick.
The reviewer then goes...
This week saw the hotly-anticipated launch of the new iOS mid-ranger – though with a new starting price of $600/€700/ £600/₹60,000 (128GB storage), “mid-ranger” no longer sounds true. To be fair, this isn’t a new iPhone SE (the last one started at $430 for a 64GB phone).
Apple iPhone 16e
This is the Apple iPhone 16e. It’s iPhone 16 hardware – a binned Apple A18 chip and just the 48MP main camera from the back – stuffed inside an iPhone 14-style body and using the same 6.1” 60Hz OLED display with a notched Face ID (Touch ID is gone from the phone).
The iPhone SE (2022) is...
Out of lockstep by a few months as always, the ultimate Galaxy and the best iPhone ever meet again. The S25 Ultra is low on dramatic changes, the 16 Pro Max was a polishing job itself - perhaps we've reached a point where we need to focus on and appreciate the little upgrades. That's a topic for a different time though - now, let's compare the current top models from the two archrivals.

The OnePlus 13R can add last week’s poll to its resume – these results are something to brag about. The perception of this phone is that OnePlus fixed some of the major complaints about the 12R (mainly the camera).
This led to a positive score on the poll and one major complaint – the price. The 13R matches the price of the 256GB 12R, but the 12R also had a cheaper 128GB model. Well, actually, in Europe and India the 13R got a small price hike. Anyway, while OnePlus phones aren’t regulars at the discount section in stores, they do get price cuts and promos often enough.

The iPhone SE is dead, long live the iPhone e! Okay, this may be an unfortunate development for some of you as the SE was the smallest iPhone and it was by far the cheapest. What now?
The Apple iPhone 16e is the same size as the 16 and it is almost as expensive – it starts at $600/€700/£600/₹60,000 for a 128GB model. There are 256GB and 512GB options too, but those storage upgrades follow the same pattern as upgrades on Apple’s more premium phones. Pre-orders for the 16e started this Friday, sales will commence on Friday next week.
Long story short, the 16e has a binned A18 chipset...

Two official-looking promo videos of the upcoming Nothing Phone (3a) and (3a) Pro just surfaced online, revealing some tidbits that were previously unknown, but more importantly, they confirm the design and specs that were previously shared online.

With the Galaxy S25 Ultra's S Pen losing some features this year, the rumor about the upcoming S Pen update for the Galaxy Z Fold7 sounds rather reassuring. Or at least we believe so.
Samsung's S Pen
According to a new report on X, Samsung is planning to redesign the S Pen for the Z Fold7, making it slightly thicker. Now, the question is whether Samsung is making it thicker for the sake of ergonomics and usability or plans to add new features, and the hardware needs more space.
Unlike the Galaxy S Ultras, the Z Folds don't have a holster for the S Pen and you have to buy...
Yesterday, Infinix announced it would unveil the Note 50 series on March 3. The brand didn't divulge anything about the lineup other than saying it will come with Infinix AI. However, we've now learned from a reliable source that the Note 50 series, including the Note 50, will come with DeepSeek R1 integration.
We are told that DeepSeek R1 will be baked into Infinix's Folax voice assistant, which performed impressively during the internal testing. It handled searches and voice commands well and was noticeably faster at understanding requests.

OnePlus unveiled the Watch 3 earlier this week, but its initial batch came with a hilarious typo that got people talking on the internet and led to trolling. For those unaware, the backplate of the OnePlus Watch 3 that early users got says "Meda in China" instead of "Made in China."
