'Fourth-rate show': White House reacts to South Park showing 'Trump naked in bed with devil'
The White House's first reaction to Wednesday night's South Park premiere attacking President
Donald Trump
is here. Trump's White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers told Rolling Stone: "The Left's hypocrisy truly has no end — for years they have come after South Park for what they labeled as 'offense' [sic] content, but suddenly they are praising the show.
"Just like the creators of South Park, the Left has no authentic or original content, which is why their popularity continues to hit record lows. This show hasn't been relevant for over 20 years and is hanging on by a thread with uninspired ideas in a desperate attempt for attention. President Trump has delivered on more promises in just six months than any other president in our country's history — and no fourth-rate show can derail President Trump's hot streak.

Trump is shown lying in bed with Satan arguing wth Canadian PM
After a gap of almost two and a half years, South Park kicked off its 27th season after creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone reached a $1.5 billion streaming deal with Paramount. Paramount is the parent company of Comedy Central, where South Park airs, and CBS—which has received widespread criticism over its decision to cancel The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.
During the premiere episode, titled "Sermon on the 'Mount," Trump is shown lying in bed with Satan, arguing with the Canadian prime minister and complaining about the size of his penis.

Trump insinuates that he wants to have sex with Satan, but the devil turns him down. "Come on, Satan. I've been working hard all day," Trump says, to which Satan replies: "You haven't been working! You've been doing your stupid memes and just f****** around."
The episode also mentioned the "Epstein list" as Satan tells Trump: "Another random b**** commented on my Instagram that you're on the Epstein list."
"The Epstein list?" Trump asks. "Are we still talking about that?"

U.S EU Trade deal: Who wins after tariff agreement - Donald Trump or Europe?
Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads FAQs U.S EU Trade deal agreement has finally been chalked. In the end, Europe found it lacked the leverage to pull Donald Trump 's America into a trade pact on its terms and so has signed up to a deal it can just about stomach - albeit one that is clearly skewed in the U.S.'s favour. As such, Sunday's agreement on a blanket 15 per cent tariff after a months-long stand-off is a reality check on the aspirations of the 27-country European Union to become an economic power able to stand up to the likes of the United States or has long portrayed itself as an export superpower and champion of rules-based commerce for the benefit both of its own soft power and the global economy as a whole. For sure, the new tariff that will now be applied is a lot more digestible than the 30% "reciprocal" tariff which Trump threatened to invoke in a few it should ensure Europe avoids recession, it will likely keep its economy in the doldrums: it sits somewhere between two tariff scenarios the European Central Bank last month forecast would mean 0.5-0.9 per cent economic growth this year compared to just over 1% in a trade tension-free this is nonetheless a landing point that would have been scarcely imaginable only months ago in the pre-Trump 2.0 era, when the EU along with much of the world could count on U.S. tariffs averaging out at around 1.5%.Even when Britain agreed a baseline tariff of 10% with the United States back in May, EU officials were adamant they could do better and - convinced the bloc had the economic heft to square up to Trump - pushed for a "zero-for-zero" tariff took a few weeks of fruitless talks with their U.S. counterparts for the Europeans to accept that 10% was the best they could get and a few weeks more to take the same 15% baseline which the United States agreed with Japan last week."The EU does not have more leverage than the U.S., and the Trump administration is not rushing things," said one senior official in a European capital who was being briefed on last week's negotiations as they closed in around the 15% official and others pointed to the pressure from Europe's export-oriented businesses to clinch a deal and so ease the levels of uncertainty starting to hit businesses from Finland's Nokia to Swedish steelmaker SSAB ."We were dealt a bad hand. This deal is the best possible play under the circumstances," said one EU diplomat. "Recent months have clearly shown how damaging uncertainty in global trade is for European businesses."That imbalance - or what the trade negotiators have been calling "asymmetry" - is manifest in the final only is it expected that the EU will now call off any retaliation and remain open to U.S. goods on existing terms, but it has also pledged $600 billion of investment in the United States. The time-frame for that remains undefined, as do other details of the accord for talks unfolded, it became clear that the EU came to the conclusion it had more to lose from all-out retaliatory measures it threatened totalled some 93 billion euros - less than half its U.S. goods trade surplus of nearly 200 billion a growing number of EU capitals were also ready to envisage wide-ranging anti-coercion measures that would have allowed the bloc to target the services trade in which the United States had a surplus of some $75 billion last even then, there was no clear majority for targeting the U.S. digital services which European citizens enjoy and for which there are scant homegrown alternatives - from Netflix to Uber to Microsoft cloud remains to be seen whether this will encourage European leaders to accelerate the economic reforms and diversification of trading allies to which they have long paid lip service but which have been held back by national the deal as a painful compromise that was an "existential threat" for many of its members, Germany's BGA wholesale and export association said it was time for Europe to reduce its reliance on its biggest trading partner."Let's look on the past months as a wake-up call," said BGA President Dirk Jandura. "Europe must now prepare itself strategically for the future - we need new trade deals with the biggest industrial powers of the world."A1. President of USA is Donald Trump.A2.

Tom Lehrer, master of musical satire and mathematics, dies at 97
AP Tom Lehrer, song satirist and mathematician, dies at 97 Tom Lehrer, the renowned American satirist, singer-songwriter, and mathematician best known for his darkly humorous songs that skewered politics, social taboos, and the absurdities of the Cold War era, passed away on Saturday, July 26, 2025, at his home in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He was 97 years old. Lehrer's longtime friend David Herder confirmed the news, though the cause of death has not been disclosed. Born on April 9, 1928, in Manhattan, New York, Lehrer was a mathematical prodigy who entered Harvard University at the age of 15. He earned his bachelor's degree in mathematics at just 18 and went on to obtain a master's degree from Harvard the following year. Though he began doctoral studies, he never completed his dissertation. Lehrer's academic career spanned teaching positions at prestigious institutions including Harvard, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the University of California, Santa Cruz, where he spent much of his later professional life devoted to education rather than entertainment. Lehrer first gained national recognition in the 1950s through self-produced albums that featured his clever, politically charged, and taboo-breaking songs. His work hit wider audiences in the 1960s when he was featured on the American television program That Was the Week That Was (TW3), a satirical news show hosted by David Frost. Lehrer's sharp wit and musical skill made him a cult favorite, with songs that remain influential for their cutting humor and musicality. His 1965 album That Was the Year That Was reached number 18 on the U.S. charts. His repertoire includes enduring classics such as 'Poisoning Pigeons in the Park,' 'The Masochism Tango,' 'Be Prepared' (a satire of the Boy Scouts), 'The Old Dope Peddler,' and 'The Vatican Rag,' which amusingly lampooned religion with lines like 'Down on your knees, genuflect, genuflect.' Lehrer's song 'The Elements' is famous for setting the names of chemical elements to the melody of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Pirates of Penzance and is regarded as one of the cleverest educational songs ever the success of his musical career and his wide influence—he inspired future musical parodists such as 'Weird Al' Yankovic—Lehrer largely abandoned performing and recording after the late 1960s to focus on his academic career. In 2020, he made headlines by relinquishing all rights to his songs, placing his work into the public domain for free public for his classical piano training starting at age seven, Lehrer admirably balanced his dual passions for music and mathematics throughout his life. Though he never married or had children, his legacy endures through his contributions to musical satire and the mathematics community.

HC dismisses petition for dependent pension under freedom fighter scheme
Hyderabad: Telangana high court has dismissed a writ petition seeking grant of arrears and dependent pension under the Swatantrata Sainik Samman Pension Scheme, 1980. The court ruled that no pension can be sanctioned after the death of a freedom fighter if it was not granted during their lifetime. Justice NV Shravan Kumar delivered the verdict while hearing a petition filed by the late freedom fighter More Rama Rao's daughter, More Vijaya Laxmi, from Warangal district. Vijaya Laxmi claimed that neither Rama Rao nor her mother, More Sushila, were granted freedom fighter's pension despite their applications. After their deaths, being unmarried and mentally ill, she applied for a family pension, which was still pending with the authorities.

Around 20 years later, he got a response from the authorities asking him to submit relevant documents in April 2003. Even before his application was processed, he died in October 2003. Following this, Vijaya Laxmi's mother Sushila applied for the family pension. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2 & 3 BHK by the Lake, Off Old Madras Road Brigade Lakecrest Undo However, she also passed away in 2016 before her application was processed. Subsequently, Vijaya Laxmi, being the sole heir, applied for pension and submitted representations to the authorities on two occasions in Sept 2016. As the same was not considered, she approached the high court seeking relief. Justice NV Shravan Kumar noted that although Rao applied for the pension in 1984, it was never sanctioned during his lifetime. Subsequent applications by his wife and later the petitioner were not eligible under the revised scheme. The court also noted that Rao declared "no eligible dependents" in official records. Further, in view of the 2014 guidelines, the court ruled that "no lifetime arrears or dependent pension shall be sanctioned to the spouse or daughter after the death of the freedom fighter" if the pension was not already approved, and dismissed Vijaya Laxmi's petition.
