President Donald Trump seems determined to use the Presidency to turn a profit while in office.

Just weeks after national outcry forced him to withdraw his efforts to hold the massive 2020 G7 Summit of world leaders at his own Trump Doral Resort in Miami, Trump will soon address the Republican National Committee there for its winter meeting.

And the prices just went up.


Right before the White House announced Trump's visit, the cost for Doral's cheapest rooms leapt from $254 to $539 per night. Given the amount of lawmakers and other staff expected to attend, the brunt of the costs will likely go to taxpayers.

The inflation of the room prices come in addition to already expensive food. After all, the featured motto on the Trump Doral restaurants webpage is:

"SUBTLETY IS NOT OUR STRENGTH, INDULGENCE IS."

They're not lying either—one of the Doral restaurants, BLT Prime, boasts a $106 porterhouse steak.

People weren't even surprised anymore at how blatantly the President has used taxpayer money for personal enrichment.








If conditions at Doral are the same as an undercover reporter exposed two months ago, there will likely be some disgruntled Republicans.

Oh, by the way, we still haven't seen the President's tax returns.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
