Love him or hate him, it should be inarguable that President Donald Trump is a quote machine. From his derisive nicknames, to his biting responses to the left, to even his highly effective "Kamala is for they/them, Trump is for you" slogan in the lead-up to the 2024 election, the...

We finally have the full video footage of Hillary Clinton’s deposition from last week. It’s entirely unclear to me why you would record this and then release it a few days later….why not just make it live? But anyway, now we have it and we finally get to see her throw the fit we heard about last week. Watch here: BREAKING: Hillary Clinton throws an unhinged, hysterical MELTDOWN after we posted a photo of her testifying on Epstein. She SCREAMS at Republicans and then STORMS out of the room: “I am DONE WITH THIS. You can hold me in contempt. I’m DONE!” Yikes pic.twitter.com/kBsJqGqrFY — Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) March 2, 2026 Even more interesting to me is to watch when she is asked about the “Frazzledrip” video on the Anthony Weiner laptop. Instead of just quickly dismissing it as bogus, she looks WILDLY uncomfortable and her attorneys jump in to claim this is “outside the scope” of the questioning. Why not just answer it quickly and dismiss it? This looks so much worse: Hillary Clinton loses her mind when asked if she is aware of a specific file on Anthony Weiner’s laptop titled “Life Insurance” with “Frazzledrip.” Hillary Clinton does not answer the question, and then they go off the record. pic.twitter.com/nE0CR4NFlH — Shadow of Ezra (@ShadowofEzra) March 2, 2026 You can watch the FULL deposition right here:

Meet current McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski. Chris thought it would be a good idea to eat the new “Big Arch” burger live on the air when the man seemingly has never eaten a burger — let alone McDonalds — in his entire life! Dude looks so milquetoast that I can’t quite imagine him eating anything other than yogurt, granola and fruit for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But a big sloppy “Big Arch” burger? Or a Big Mac? Or fries? I doubt it! And yet somehow this guy ended up becoming the CEO of McDonalds, proving once again that you truly can become anything you want in life! Anyway, this video is really a sight to behold. Instead of referring to it as a burger as most humans would, this robot calls it their new “product”. And he talks about how it’s been “tested” in Portugal, Germany and Canada as if it’s radioactive and unclear whether it will pass testing for human consumption or not! Then when he tries to pick it up, it’s as if he’s never truly held a burger in his hands before. I also love how he seems genuinely surprised and impressed at what ingredients are in the Big Arch, as if he doesn’t know exactly every little thing that goes into it! I’m not sure if you can have negative aura and charisma, but if you can this guy has it. Folks, this is why you never promote your CFO to CEO. Oh sure, Tim Cook will make you a lot of money, but Tim Cook and this Chris K. guy have zero heart.  Zero passion.  Zero vision.  It’s all just numbers on a spreadsheet and “products” you push upon the masses. Steve Jobs passionately loved creating insanely great new things. Ray Kroc loved burgers. But these milquetoast CFOs-turned-CEOs are so sad to me. Anyway, the video is hilarious. Watch here: THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE McDONALD’S CEO MEETS A BURGER FOR THE FIRST TIME A guy watches the clip of McDonalds CEO Chris Kempczinski and absolutely dismantles it. “Tested in Portugal… Germany… Canada… may even be fit for human consumption.” Then the bite. Awkward… pic.twitter.com/HeyJ4MAMpv — HustleBitch (@HustleBitch_) February 26, 2026 Backup video here if needed: Look, I’ll say this….eating food on camera is almost never a winning proposition. It’s awkward. It looks bad. Your mouth is full. It’s sloppy. You want to talk to keep the video going but you can’t because you’re still chewing. So I get it. But bro, pretend like you at least like your own “product”! Also, fact-checked true that this guy makes about $18 million/year slinging this “product”. Imagine making $18,000,000 a year as the McDonald’s CEO… and still not being able to hide your disgust for your own “product.” pic.twitter.com/PCqgNdzErJ — HustleBitch (@HustleBitch_) March 2, 2026 Has anyone considered hiring this guy instead? This guy loves a good burger: TONIGHT: President Trump speaks at @McDonalds summit on the economy & more. “The Biden administration started the affordability crisis, but President Trump will end it so all Americans can achieve economic prosperity.”@axios https://t.co/D1007sw9Is pic.twitter.com/l4NAH3kdD5 — The White House (@WhiteHouse) November 17, 2025 Speaking of Ray Kroc, it’s fascinating to me how you either have “Founder Mode” enabled in your mind or you don’t. Most people don’t, and you can’t fault them for it. But Founders are special people. Founders instinctively get it.  They instinctively care.  Because they were the ones who cared so much that they created the business out of nothing and called it into being by their vision and their determination. Ray Kroc would famously visit McDonalds locations unannounced to check up on them and also constantly check up on the competitors: Ray Kroc used to drive around unannoced to McDonalds stores and ate few burgers a day (while counting burger wrappers in competitors trash to gauge their sales). Current McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski looks like he gonna hurl after eating new Big Arch. pic.twitter.com/pmeSCjkhrM — Trung Phan (@TrungTPhan) March 1, 2026 A good CFO will do a great job milking money from the machine the Founder builds, but they will never have the vision or care of a Founder. As I was watching Chris K. try to eat this “product”, I couldn’t help but think of this similar video: HILARIOUS: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey Looks Like He’s About To BARF As He Tries To Eat Somali Food Oh my goodness, this had me dying laughing! And I ALMOST felt sorry for this guy, but then that feeling passed real quick.  Because you don’t get to sell out one of America’s once great cities and engender any sympathy from me.  Not gonna happen.  You made your bed, now lie in it! And in this case, that bed is rotten from the inside out, just like their disgusting food. Which is what Jacob Frey just found out. I’ve watched this on loop for about the past 10 minutes and it just keeps getting better. Watch his face! We all know that face. We’ve all MADE that face. That’s the face you make when you’re holding on for dear life trying like crazy not to barf out what you’re currently eating. LMAO!

President Donald Trump announced on Monday that the active U.S. military campaign against Iran, "Operation Epic Fury," is projected to last between "four and five weeks," though he emphasized that the United States is prepared for a longer engagement -- if necessary.

The U.S. State Department issued an urgent message to Americans in 14 countries on Monday, telling them to “Depart Now” amid escalating military actions in the Middle East. President Trump and Secretary Marco Rubio said the big wave is coming soon.

McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski has gone viral on social media after a video of him tasting the new Big Arch burger started circulating online. Viewers made comments about the fast food chain exec’s awkward demeanor and wording, saying it was clear that he hated the “product” and didn’t really want to eat it. “I love this product, it is so good. I’m going to do a tasting right now, but I’m going to eat this for my lunch, just so you know,” Kempczinski says in the video, which was shared to drum up interest in the new addition to the McDonald’s menu.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Chris Kempczinski (@chrisk_mcd) He explained how the burger has “two quarter-pound patties, a delicious Big Arch sauce, and of course, some lettuce, along with crispy onions and pickles.” Kempczinski awkwardly approached the burger, noting that he “didn’t even know how to attack it,” before taking a hesitant bite, which he described as being bigger than it actually was. “Mmm, that is so good, that’s a big bite for a Big Arch,” the CEO said, showing the camera the tiny nibble he took out of the massive burger. Social media commenters didn’t hold back with their mockery. “What’s the opposite of genuine and authentic?” one popular Instagram comment said. “That was the smallest first bite I’ve ever seen,” another person agreed. “This man does not like that ‘product,’” another person wrote. “Watching the McDonald’s CEO tentatively nibble on the Big Arch like it’s a radioactive artifact from the dollar menu, calling it ‘product’ instead of food, is the most unintentionally hilarious endorsement fail since New Coke,” one X commenter added. The video was posted to Kempczinski’s Instagram last month, but didn’t go viral until now, just days before the Big Arch is set to debut on McDonald’s menus nationwide on Tuesday, March 3. This fact led to some fans wondering if the awkward video and its promotion is nothing more than a way to get attention for the new fast food menu offering.

The following is an edited transcript excerpt from The Michael Knowles Show. * * * Many people are debating the war with Iran from an ideological perspective. You’re an interventionist. You’re an isolationist. You’re America First. You’re a war-monger. You’re a peacenik. And right now, these ideological camps are screaming past each other. The isolationists say we should never get involved in foreign wars under any circumstances. The war hawks say America must confront evil regimes wherever they arise. But neither position settles the matter here. That’s not what this is about. The two questions, which most of us outside the government simply do not have answers to, are: First: Was the threat posed by Iran really that great? Second: Can we effectively and efficiently install a friendly regime in Iran? Those are the two questions. Everything else is noise. If the threat from Iran was high and we believe we can easily install a pro-Western regime, then obviously, this was an awesome move and Donald Trump will go down as one of the greatest presidents in American history. Replacing this regime in Iran has been a high American priority since 1979. If, on the other hand, the threat was exaggerated and America gets bogged down in an endless war, Trump will have destroyed his legacy and he will go down in much the same way as George W. Bush. That is a serious risk he is taking based on his confidence in the United States military and his confidence in his own statesmanship. But even that isn’t enough. The second question is just as important: Can we pull this off? Can the United States remove the top of the Iranian regime and replace it with something stable, manageable, and at least not actively hostile? Can this be done efficiently, without becoming another Iraq? Without morphing into an endless occupation, a decades-long counterinsurgency, or a regional quagmire? If the answer to both questions is yes — if the threat was high and the operation can be executed cleanly — then this could go down as one of the boldest and most successful foreign policy moves of our lifetimes. But if the threat was overstated, and if we get bogged down in an endless war, then President Trump will have risked everything. He will have tarnished the very legacy he built running against the Bush-era regime change disasters. That’s the gamble. Notice what this debate is not about. It is not about whether America should ever intervene. It is not about spreading democracy to every corner of the globe. It is not about grand ideological crusades. It is about risk assessment. And President Trump is a risk-taker. When he says “no more stupid wars,” many people heard “no more wars.” But the emphasis was never on “wars.” It was on “stupid.” When he said “no more endless wars,” the emphasis was on “endless.” WATCH: The Michael Knowles Show on DailyWire+ This is not being pitched as Iraq 2.0. It is being pitched as a decisive, overwhelming, time-limited force. The early days have been extremely successful. Military leadership decapitated. Key targets neutralized. A regime that has openly threatened American interests for decades suddenly thrown off balance. But early success does not guarantee long-term success. A billion things could go wrong. It can still spiral out of control. Internal Iranian power struggles could produce chaos rather than stability. Intelligence assessments could prove flawed. The costs could still grow and the timeline could stretch. The president reportedly believes this will be a four- or five-week operation. Those are famous last words in American foreign policy. Every modern war has begun with confident timelines. So, we are left with the two questions: How real was the threat? How feasible is the outcome? If Iran’s regime truly posed a grave, escalating danger — and if the United States can remove and replace that regime without creating a vacuum — then this operation may reshape the Middle East in America’s favor. It could reset a declining geopolitical trajectory and reassert American strength. If not, then this will look less like strategic genius and more like overreach. The ideological shouting will continue. But the serious debate is narrower and more sober. It is not about whether one is a hawk or a dove. It is about whether this specific intervention meets the threshold of necessity and feasibility. That is the test.
