Dottie's Market in Downtown Savannah to close its doors
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — Dottie's Market Savannah, a new relatively new face to the Broughton Street dining scene, will soon shutter its doors.
According to an Instagram post from Monday, Dottie's announced that they would close their location on Broughton.
'After careful consideration, we've made the decision to close our Broughton Street location. While this chapter is coming to a close, we're filled with gratitude for the love, support, and encouragement we've received from this special city and it's lovely visitors.'
Dottie's attracted national attention after serving a high-profile customer. In Aug. 2024, then-Vice President (VP) Kamala Harris paid a visit to the market, joined with Savannah Mayor Van Johnson and former Georgia Democratic Party Chairwoman and Congresswoman Nikema Williams (GA-05), during her two-day visit to the Hostess City amid her bid for the Presidency in the 2024 United States General Election.
The visit also included a viral meme of the former VP's delight at one of the store's caramel chocolate cakes.
Dottie's opened in 2023 and offered an array of lunch and desserts. Their operation has been described as 'part lunch table, part grab and go outpost.'
Though the market is closing, they indicated on Instagram that this may not be their final chapter.
'We remain deeply committed to Dottie's future,' the market wrote on Facebook. 'We look forward to sharing more soon and can't wait to welcome you back when the time is right.'

Bill Maher mocks Dems for trying to find 'their Joe Rogan,' suggests figuring out how they lost him
"Real Time" host Bill Maher mocked the Democratic Party's attempt to find "their Joe Rogan," pointing out the irony that the podcaster had leaned left until he became disillusioned with the party. The host explained, "One idea that's getting a lot of attention is the Dems need to find their Joe Rogan, a liberal Joe Rogan." Maher argued that rather than "conjuring up a new Joe Rogan," Democrats should be asking themselves how they lost him in the first place. Rogan previously endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., in the 2020 election. It wasn't until 2024 that Rogan publicly endorsed President Donald Trump. Rogan Reacts Live To Elon's 'Crazy' Epstein Accusation Against Trump While Interviewing Fbi Director The "Real Time" host lampooned the idea that the real reason why former Vice President Kamala Harris lost the 2024 election is because "Republicans have a podcast." "Okay, maybe. Or, you could consider this," Maher jeered. "Instead of conjuring up a new Joe Rogan, ask yourself why you lost the old one, because he used to be on your side." Read On The Fox News App In 2024, regarding the Democratic desire to find its own Rogan, the podcaster said, "They had me." "I was on their side," he added. Maher compared Rogan's political transformation to Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who was also a liberal who ended up being "driven to the other camp by bad attitudes and bad ideas." Click Here For More Coverage Of Media And Culture Maher noted that he's watched the political evolution of both Rogan and Musk and their party affiliations didn't switch "overnight." Maher referenced a 2022 post on then-Twitter from Elon Musk in which he shared a chart depicting his feeling that the Democratic Party had moved too far to the left for him, rather than his ideology moving to the right. Rogan said that Democrats have moved so far that it "left a basically liberal centrist like him — now labeled a conservative," adding that he related to Musk's post. Maher also highlighted attempts by the left to cancel Rogan and Musk as a key reason they abandoned the party. "They tried real hard to cancel Rogan a few years ago — and when Elon hosted 'Saturday Night Live' in 2021, well before he was a Trumper — some of the cast gave him the cold shoulder for the sin of being rich," he recalled. "You think people don't remember when you do this s--- to them?" The late-night host asserted that while he's never left the party, Democrats need to work hard to get "all the guys in America like Joe and Elon" back on their side, but assured them that it's still article source: Bill Maher mocks Dems for trying to find 'their Joe Rogan,' suggests figuring out how they lost him

German town offers free 2-week stay to lure people to relocate there
A German town trying to beef up its population is luring in new residents by offering them a two-week trial accommodation — on the house. Eisenhüttenstadt, around 60 miles from Berlin, was built in 1950. dpa/picture alliance via Getty Images Eisenhüttenstadt, around 60 miles from Berlin, is accepting applications for the program — which will run from Sept. 6 to 20 — until the beginning of July. Advertisement 'The project is aimed at anyone interested in moving to Eisenhüttenstadt—such as commuters, those interested in returning to the town, skilled workers, or self-employed individuals seeking a change of scenery,' the local council said in a statement, according to CNN Travel. The initiative in the city, which now has a population of around 24,000, is part of an 'innovative immigration project' named 'Make Plans Now,' the council continued. Local businesses will offer internships and job shadowing. dpa/picture alliance via Getty Images Advertisement Those enrolled in the program will also participate in activities designed just for them, including a tour of Eisenhüttenstadt, home to historical buildings from the Soviet era. One man was so captivated by its architecture that he had already moved there. 'We were traveling to Ratzdorf with friends and drove through Karl-Marx-Straße. And I saw these houses, this architecture that completely blew me away, and I said to my wife, 'I'm going to move here,'' he wrote on the town hall's Instagram account. Eisenhüttenstadt, which means Steel Mill Town, was built around a steel mill. Guests will get the chance to explore its factories as well.

Here's How Elon Musk's Daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson Reacted To Her Dad's Fallout With President Trump
Vivian Jenna Wilson shared her thoughts on the viral feud between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It only took a few minutes for Tesla CEO's daughter to chime in after her dad dropped a now-deleted bombshell accusation against Trump, alleging the president's name was in the FBI files on Jeffrey Epstein. If you didn't know, Elon's 21-year-old daughter has been estranged from her father since coming out as trans, but she's remained a vocal critic of her father's actions and involvement in politics. "I mean, I'll see things about him in the news and think, That's fucking cringe, I should probably post about this and denounce it, which I have done a few times," Vivan told Teen Vogue back in March. Well, now that her dad and the president are trending for their big fallout, it's no surprise Vivian would find a way to address it. A quick recap: On Jun. 4, Elon voiced his opposition to Trump's "One Big, Beautiful Bill," which didn't go over well with the president. Speaking with reporters, Trump responded, "I'm very disappointed because Elon knew the inner workings of this bill better than almost anybody. He had no problem with it. All of the sudden he had a problem, and he only developed the problem when he found out we're gonna have to the cut EV mandate... He hasn't said bad about me personally, but I'm sure that'll be next. But I'm very disappointed in Elon. I've helped Elon a lot." Related: "We Don't Import Food": 31 Americans Who Are Just So, So Confused About Tariffs And US Trade Elon fired back with X posts on Jun. 5, claiming the president "would have lost the election," and Trump's response is a sign of "ingratitude." Then, when Trump threatened to "terminate Elon's Governmental Subsidies and Contracts," Elon dropped his "really big bomb" of an X post, which has since been removed. Elon's now-deleted X post read, "Time to drop the really big bomb: @realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!" Related: AOC's Viral Response About A Potential Presidential Run Has Everyone Watching, And I'm Honestly Living For It Although Elon has since removed the X post claiming the president's name was in the Epstein files, the claim went viral, so of course, his daughter, who's been critical of her billionaire father in the past, had to post about it. Vivian posted a video of herself with the caption, "I love being proven right." In the video, she says, "I do not want to comment," before laughing on camera. @vivllainous / Instagram: @vivllainous Vivian also posted an Instagram Story of her Threads post, which read, "Such beauty in life," with Chase Icon's "Job Application" playing in the background. If it wasn't obvious that Vivian was throwing a little shade at Elon and President Trump's online feud, people in the comments sure as heck made it clear. "I love that everyone knows EXACTLY what you're talking about with just 4 words. I fucking L O V E I T," one person wrote. Another person said Vivian was "the best at giving shade without naming anyone." People were really celebrating with Vivian in the replies. Finally, somebody wrote, "I really hope you're taking this day to put your feet up with a glass of wine. You've endured so much shit -this must feel glorious." Whew. What a week!
