The Trump Organization's rollout of Trump Mobile on Monday—a new wireless service using Trump's image to sell smartphones—was notably messy. Not only did the website reportedly glitch while processing preorders (more on that below), but soon after its launch, at least one glaring mistake on the website had to be quickly changed. Critics on social media were quick to point out that the Trump Mobile coverage map used the Gulf of Mexico instead of using Trump's controversial new name for the body

For one, it means the T1 phone wasn’t the result of a spicy, food-fueled fever dream or a bad batch of crazy-style mushrooms—it’s a real phone that costs real money, made by a real president, who thinks “fox in the henhouse” is an allegory for how to win bigly in the U.S. government.

The Trump administration has locked horns with a federal judge who ruled on Monday that more than $1 billion in DEI-fueled cuts to federal health research clearly discriminated against racial minorities and LGBTQ+ people.
