Yes, they're raising prices on Barbie. Even she has to cut back. She had to move out of Barbie's dream house and into Barbie's dream studio apartment with two roommates. Her pink convertible is now a 2007 Toyota Tercel. It's very sad. Come on, don't make Barbie tighten her belt even more. She only has a one inch waist. And Trump's not the only one answering dull-based questions.

Treasury Secretary Scott Besant, seen here watching a bulldozer demolish a local community center, also had some thoughts. Secretary Besant, what would you say to a sweet little girl who wonders why she can't have a new Barbie this year?

Yes. If there's one thing children love, it's the concept of economic freedom. It's very clear that you were never a little girl. They would never be on board with this. I don't want that stuff.

We knew how to live in this country back when I was a kid during the Obama years. Don't Google it. I knew Besant was a shitty treasury secretary, but I think there's one job he'd be even worse at.

But don't worry too much. If you really can only buy one doll, there's a new one that's just right for 2025.
