Elon Musk and Donald Trump had a public falling out earlier this year, but the tech tycoon still gave a reported $15 million to the president's Super PAC MAGA Inc. in the wake of their friendship breakup. The Federal Election Commission shared that aside from contributing to MAGA Inc., Musk also gave to the Congressional Leadership Fund and the Senate Leadership Fund.

During the 2024 election, Musk reportedly donated $300 million to Trump and Republicans. He was later brought on to manage Trump's new DOGE department. Once his time in the role came to an end, he publicly criticized Trump's One Big, Beautiful Bill and accused the former reality star of being mentioned in the Jeffrey Epstein files. He made the additional $15 million in donations on June 27 — weeks after dropping the Epstein bomb.

This spending bill contains the largest increase in the debt ceiling in US history!

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 4, 2025

Musk and Trump were close during the election and early in the president's second term, but things have greatly shifted.

"I'm sorry, but I just can't stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination," Musk told followers on X. "Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it."

"This spending bill contains the largest increase in the debt ceiling in US history! It is the Debt Slavery Bill," he also wrote.

Trump responded by publicly calling Musk a "big-time drug addict."

Donald Trump's administration plans to get a nuclear reactor on the moon.

According to a leaked internal memo, Transportation Secretary and acting NASA Administrator Sean Duffy has announced the plans to place an electricity-generating reactor up in space.

"To properly advance this critical technology to be able to support a future lunar economy, high power energy generation on Mars and to strengthen our national security in space, it is imperative the agency move quickly," he wrote.

According to one NASA source, Duffy's ambitious plans — which could come to fruition by 2030 — are "about winning the second space race."

Per Duffy's memo, if Russia or China were to cross this milestone before the United States, they could "declare a keep-out zone which would significantly inhibit" America's progress.

NASA is set to appoint someone to lead the reactor project. The agency will also have to get private industry feedback within 60 days. 

The current goal for NASA to get the reactor on the moon is slated for 2030, the same year China reportedly intends to land on the lunar space.

Gavin Newsom is taking action against Republicans.

After Texas Democratic representatives fled the state to stop right-wing politicians from trying to enact controversial redistricting legislation, the California Governor made it clear that he's a proponent of independent redistricting and a national framework. He also revealed that a proposal supporting his views is being advanced in the legislature.

"The proposal that we're advancing with the legislature has a trigger only if they move forward, to dismantling the protocols that are well-established," Newsom explained during a press conference. "Would the state of California move forward in kind? Fighting? Yes, fire with fire."

When the liberal politician was questioned on whether Democrats had drafted redistricting maps, Newsom admitted he hadn't seen any plans but noted that people in the party were continuing to talk about how to respond to conservatives.

"That process has to have the concurrence, the support of two-thirds of the legislature," Newsom said. "The maps, we believe, should be transparent. They should be provided in a transparent way to the public and as a consequence, those maps are being processed and will be brought to light."

The 57-year-old pointed out how it's vital that the people of California have their say in the matter if they have to pull the trigger. "We will offer them the opportunity to make judgments for themselves, again, only if Texas moves forward," Newsom said. "I'll reinforce that we believe it should be a national model, independent national redistricting and it would revert back to its original form, but it's done in response to the existential realities that we're now facing. Things have changed, facts have changed, so we must change."

"They've triggered this response and we're not going to roll over and we're going to fight fire with fire, but we're going to do so not just punching with the weight of the fourth largest economy, the most populous state in our union, the size of 21 state populations combined," he said. "We also will punch above our weight in terms of the impact of what we're doing and I think that should be absorbed by those in the Texas delegation. Whatever they are doing will be neutered here in the state of California and they will pay that price."

California GOP Chairwoman Corrin Rankin responded to Newsom's plans, claiming the move could challenge Californians' constitutional rights.

"While Governor Newsom frames this redistricting as a defensive move, it undermines California's nationally respected, voter-approved Citizens Redistricting Commission and if successful, sets a dangerous precedent that voters' choices can be overruled whenever politicians find it politically convenient," she said. "Our primary concern is safeguarding Californians' constitutional rights against partisan manipulation disguised as defending democracy; true democracy means empowering voters, not politicians, to decide representation."

When multiple Democratic politicians escaped the state of Texas to block a redistricting vote, the southern state's Governor Greg Abbott threatened to arrest and expel the lawmakers if they do not return.

One of Texas' left-wing representatives Julie Johnson called the situation the start of a "national war" and "an all-out war" on democracy with Donald Trump at the helm. "We come from a state of great pride and I never thought as a Texan, as an elected member of the Texas House of Representatives and now as an elected member from Texas to the United States House of Representatives, that I would see the governor of the proud state of Texas bend a knee to a felon from New York," she said. "I never thought I'd see the day, but here we are."

CBS essentially fired Stephen Colbert when the network canceled The Late Show, but the comedian isn't hurting for work. He already has a new late-night gig lined up — with a caveat. According to TheWrap, Colbert will guest star on Elsbeth playing a fictional late-night host named Scotty Bristol who hosts a show called Way Late With Scotty Bristol.

The spinoff of The Good Wife and The Good Fight stars Carrie Preston as crime solver Elsbeth Tascioni. It's unclear how Colbert's character will factor into the plot.

Like The Late Show, Elsbeth airs on CBS, which caused a media firestorm when it announced its decision to end the long-running late-night talk show in 2026.

"We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire The Late Show franchise," CBS executives said in a statement. "We are proud that Stephen called CBS home. He and the broadcast will be remembered in the pantheon of greats that graced late-night television. This is purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night. It is not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at [parent company] Paramount."

While the network asserted that it was a business move, rumors continue to spread that Colbert lost his show due to his criticism of Paramount's $16 million settlement with Donald Trump after the president sued CBS over a 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris.

"I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings," Trump said on Truth Social.

The president later claimed he wasn't responsible for CBS' decision to end The Late Show.

"Everybody is saying that I was solely responsible for the firing of Stephen Colbert from CBS, Late Night. That is not true! The reason he was fired was a pure lack of TALENT, and the fact that this deficiency was costing CBS $50 Million Dollars a year in losses — And it was only going to get WORSE," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

"Next up will be an even less talented Jimmy Kimmel, and then, a weak, and very insecure, Jimmy Fallon," Trump continued. "The only real question is, who will go first? Show Biz and Television is a very simple business. If you get Ratings, you can say or do anything. If you don't, you always become a victim. Colbert became a victim to himself, the other two will follow."

Russia is backing down.

After a top Kremlin official made "highly provocative statements" that made Donald Trump move United States nuclear submarines closer to Moscow, the country issued an apology to American leadership.

"Overall, of course, we do not wish to be drawn into such discussion or comment on it. We approach any statements related to nuclear issues with great caution," Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said. "As you know, Russia holds a responsible position. President [Vladimir] Putin's stance is well known."

"Russia takes the issue of nuclear non-proliferation very seriously," Peskov continued. "And, of course, we believe that everyone should be extremely careful when it comes to nuclear rhetoric."

Russia's former President Dmitry Medvedev caused alarm when he took to X to lash out at Trump over possible United States sanctions on Moscow in response to the country's ongoing war with Ukraine.

"Trump's playing the ultimatum game with Russia: 50 days or 10. He should remember two things: 1. Russia isn't Israel or even Iran. 2. Each new ultimatum is a threat and a step towards war," one post read.

Trump took to Truth Social to fire back at Medvedev's threats. "I have ordered two nuclear submarines to be positioned in the appropriate regions, just in case these foolish and inflammatory statements are more than just that," he wrote.

As Trump left the White House on his way to his New Jersey golf club, he doubled down on the move. "When you talk about nuclear, you have to be prepared. And we're totally prepared," he told reporters.

In response to Trump's military order, Peskov claimed in a statement, "U.S. submarines are already on combat duty. This is an ongoing process."

Lionsgate and Suretone Pictures have unveiled the chilling first trailer for Do Not Enter, a thriller that plunges a group of urban explorers into a deadly hunt for hidden treasure inside a decaying, haunted hotel.

The film marks the feature debut of veteran music video director Marc Klasfeld and is penned by horror script writer Stephen Susco (The Grudge, Unfriended).

Produced by Suretone Entertainment's Jordan Schur, Do Not Enter promises a tense, genre-bending ride that fuses paranormal terror with gritty human conflict.

Set in an abandoned hotel rumored to house a long-lost gangster's fortune, the story follows a group of young thrill-seekers who stumble into danger from all sides, including a violent rival faction of explorers and a spectral force lurking in the shadows.

Klasfeld, whose visual style has defined videos for artists like Katy Perry and JAY-Z, called the film a deeply personal venture.

"I have waited decades to find the right feature film project to which I could truly dedicate myself," Klasfeld said in a statement. "The passion I have found to make Do Not Enter all it can be is extraordinary, and I honestly can't wait for the world to see what we have."

Combined with Klasfeld's dynamic visuals, the film is poised to attract horror fans and thrill-seekers alike.

Jordan Schur, the film's producer and founder of Suretone Pictures, has long worked at the intersection of music and film.

His previous credits include Lone Survivor and Warrior.

With Do Not Enter, Schur returns to the horror genre with a film that blends myth, greed and the supernatural.

The trailer teases unsettling images of decrepit hallways, flickering lights and frantic chases, hinting at the terror that lies within the hotel's crumbling walls.

The tone is grim and fast-paced, suggesting a modern horror experience that also pays homage to classic urban legend thrillers.

No release date has been announced, but Lionsgate is expected to distribute the film theatrically later this year.

Do Not Enter stars a young ensemble cast and introduces fresh faces in a perilous setting where not everyone will make it out alive.

As competition for the gangster's hidden treasure escalates, so too does the wrath of an entity that's been waiting far too long.

The trailer is now streaming on Lionsgate's official YouTube channel and across social platforms.
