Reporter: Were you ever briefed about your name being in the Epstein files? Trump: No
There is just something so utterly perfect about *Donald Trump* of all people lecturing the media about chasing conspiracy theories while he’s focused on serious substantive business.
Trump on Epstein files: I'm focused on making deals and not conspiracy theories that you are. I watch you people, it is so sad. Talk about the success of our country instead of this nonsense you talk about over and over.
Fascinating shift on Israel in the last few days from a very wide range of center-left politicians & voices that had previously defended the country’s conduct
A week ago, JD Vance was saying the WSJ story was "complete and utter bullshit." Now it's "I have no idea if the letter exists." And the whole "They didn't show us the letter" argument is silly. If Trump had a letter to Epstein bearing his name in Epstein's birthday book that…

Trump has signed legislation cumulatively adding $13 trillion in debt in his 4.5 years as president - dwarfing every other president in our lifetime. Give me a break.
Britt: We are $37 trillion in debt. It’s not just fiscally irresponsible, it is morally irresponsible and I'm so grateful to President Trump and his leadership for saying the buck stops with me and we’re starting to rein this in..
Venus Williams, incredibly, returns to the WTA Tour at age 45 and defeats world No. 35 Peyton Stearns 6-3, 6-4 at the Mubadala Citi DC Open. It had been 709 days since her last WTA win. Truly one of the coolest and most stunning results of the year in any sport. Column coming.
In her brief tenure, she found time to hang three portraits of herself in the conference room. nytimes.com/2025/07/20/nyr… via @NYTimes
Adding a huge tax on imported Brazilian beef because President Trump is against political leaders he likes facing accountability for attempting coups will help with this.
Reporter: More soaring prices at the grocery store. The cost of beef is hitting record highs across the country. Prices are up 9% since January, and beef is retailing at the grocery store for on average $9.26 a pound. That is a dramatic increase since the beginning of the year
