Donald Trump just nominated Kirstjen Nielsen as Department of Homeland Security secretary, and the White House counselor rushed to tweet her congrats. Conway praised Donald Trump's ongoing efforts of empowering women. Unfortunately, the misguided White House aide is up to her usual Bowling Green tricks again because her acknowledgment is simply not true.

Trump's so-called "practice of empowering women to top positions" might as well be fake news.

According to data from American Bridge 21st Century, the Guardian reported that only 80 nominees out of 408 sent to the Senate in top positions were women, and roughly 75% of people on Trump's cabinet are white men.

Twitter was quick to skewer Conway's proud declaration.

Someone was summoned from the depths below to defend Trump.

While others were at a loss for words.

Past indiscretions were unearthed as reminder of how 45 does not empower women.

Susan Collins Dragged After GOP PAC Boosts Her Campaign In The Wrong Portland

On July 4, 1786, the city of Portland, Maine, was officially founded with its newly-minted name. Almost 60 years later in 1845, Maineiac Francis Pettygrove won a coin toss against Asa Lovejoy and named their soon-to-be incorporated city in Oregon Portland after the largest city in his home state of Maine.

Since then, Portland, Oregon, has swelled to a city of approximately 675,000 people while its namesake boasts a population of just 70,000. In 2026, when people hear Portland, they think of Oregon instead of the original city in Maine.

CNN Just Visited A Struggling MAGA Store—And It Spells Bad News For Trump

CNN correspondent Elle Reeve returned to Whitey Taylor's Trump Town USA in Boones Mill, Virginia, for the first time since visiting in 2023, and her segment shows that business for the Donald Trump-themed shop has collapsed as more MAGA followers break away from the president.

Reeve, in a segment for Anderson Cooper 360, reported that "things aren't what they used to be" for the store. She spoke with Taylor, who revealed that the store, which used to make $12,000 to $15,000 in sales per day now only makes between $1,500 - $2,000 per day. On occasion, Taylor will hit $3,000 in sales if he's lucky.

JD Vance Blasted After Sharing His Absolutely Mind-Numbing Definition Of 'Socialism'

According to Merriam-Webster, socialism broadly refers to economic and political systems centered on collective or government ownership and control of the means of production.

Not exactly a concept requiring a Ph.D. to explain. One would think Vice President JD Vance, a Yale Law School graduate whose party practically uses the word as punctuation, could manage a working definition.
