Tom's Guide14-05-2025

Memorial Day is just around the corner in the U.S. and that can mean travel for many Americans.
But travel can come with risks, so NordVPN is offering protection this Memorial Day with 76% off 2-year plans and a free Saily eSIM.
The deal launches today (May 14), runs through Memorial Day, and finishes on July 2.
NordVPN is currently 76% off, with the 2-year plan working out at $3.09 per month. But in addition to this, new subscribers will benefit from a free Saily eSIM with all two year deals.
NordVPN Basic and Standard will come with a 1 GB eSIM, NordVPN Plus will come with a 5 GB eSIM, and all other two-year plans will come with a 10 GB eSIM.
Sitting top of our best VPN list, NordVPN is a great all round VPN. It's ideal if you want to protect your data and online browsing this Memorial Day.
NordVPN Basic: all round VPN protectionNordVPN is our #1 rated VPN. It's super fast, ideal for streaming, and offers class-leaing privacy and security. There's over 7,000 servers worldwide and you can protect up to 10 devices. The 2-year deal works out at $3.09 per month ($83.43 up front before tax). With this deal you benefit from an extra 3 months of protection and a 1 GB Saily eSIM – both for free.
NordVPN Plus: the best VPN malware protectionNordVPN Plus is for those looking to go beyond just VPN protection. This plan includes everything NordVPN Basic offers but includes a host of extra cybersecurity features. You get the best VPN malware, phishing, ad blocker, and tracking protection in the form of Threat Protection Pro, as well as the NordPass password manager. The 2-year plan comes to $3.99 per month ($107.73 up front before tax). You also get 3 extra months of protection for free and 5 GB Saily eSIM.
NordVPN Prime: total cybersecurity protectionIf you're looking for total cybersecurity protection, you might want to consider NordVPN Prime. You benefit from everything the previous NordVPN plans have to offer but also get access to 1 TB of encrypted cloud storage and NordProtect. NordProtect provides you with up to $1 million in cyber insurance, as well as credit monitoring and identity theft protection. The 2-year plan equates to $6.99 per month ($188.73 up front before tax). 3 extra months of protection is also included, as well as a free 10 GB Saily eSIM.
Created by the team behind NordVPN, Saily brings cybersecurity protection to the world of eSIMs.
Saily includes an ad-blocker and web protection, allowing you to block malicious sites and limit online trackers.
In late 2024, Saily introduced Virtual Location which means you can hide your true browsing location. There are over 115 virtual locations ready to connect to and your traffic will be routed through one of NordVPN's servers.
As well as being included in NordVPN plans, Saily eSIM can be purchased separately. There are over 200 locations available, with plans starting at $1.99.
eSIMs can help you avoid expensive roaming charges and keep you safe from potentially compromised free, public Wi-Fi.
eSIMs are a great travel companion. But if you're planning a trip abroad and wondering whether using a VPN can save you money on flights, you might be a little underwhelmed.

Here's out full guide to where to watch the IPL final live stream online right now as the T20 showdown commences. Advertisement Both sides finished the league phase with identical records, but Punjab took top billing by virtue of their marginally superior NRR (0.372 to 0.301). However, Bengaluru mauled them in Qualifier 1, as Shreyas Iyer's men badly misinterpreted the batting conditions. PBKS were bowled out for 101 in 14.1 overs, Suyash Sharma and Josh Hazlewood taking three wickets apiece, and RCB needed just 10 overs to complete the chase. It's gone down in the books as the biggest thrashing in the history of the IPL playoffs. Iyer, however, is no fool. He's the first player to have led three different teams to the IPL final, and he dazzled in Punjab's redemptive Qualifier 2 victory over the Mumbai Indians. For all of his accomplishments, however, it's his opposite number who stands to be the story of the IPL final. Virat Kohli, who at 36 is in the twilight of his career, has spent all 18 seasons of the IPL with RCB. He's never been an IPL champion.

Former Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says she's no longer a Democrat

Former Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says she's no longer a Democrat In her upcoming book, Jean-Pierre shares 'why Americans must step beyond party lines to embrace life as Independents.' Show Caption Hide Caption Biden speaks in public for first time since cancer diagnosis Former president Joe Biden delivered his first public speech at a Memorial Day event in Delaware since his cancer diagnosis was announced. WASHINGTON – Karine Jean-Pierre, former White House press secretary for President Joe Biden, has left the Democratic Party to become an independent, she writes in a new book that will be released this fall. In her upcoming book "Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines," Jean-Pierre shares "why Americans must step beyond party lines to embrace life as Independents," publisher Hachette Book Group says in a summary of the book released June 4. "Jean-Pierre didn't come to her decision to be an Independent lightly," the teaser for the book adds. "She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden's abandoning his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision." More: Joe Biden 'optimistic' about treatment plan for Stage 4 prostate cancer Jean-Pierre's "Independent" is set to be released Oct. 21. It will add to the growing list of books on the Biden presidency written by White House reporters, including the recently released "Original Sin" by Jake Tapper of CNN and Alex Thompson of Axios that explores Biden's decline and initial decision to run for president in 2024. Jean-Pierre, who replaced Jen Psaki as Biden's press secretary, held the position from May 2022 to the end of Biden's term in January 2025. She was the first Black woman and first openly LGBTQ+ person to hold the high-profile position. More: Bill Clinton defends Biden on health reports: 'I never saw him that way' A veteran of Democratic politics, Jean-Pierre worked as chief public affairs officer for and as an NBC and MSNBC political analyst before joining the White House. She was regional political director for the White House Office of Political Affairs during the Obama-Biden administration and deputy battleground states director for President Barack Obama's 2012 reelection campaign. In her book, Jean-Pierre "urges all Americans to vote their values and maintain individuality within party lines," according to the publisher's description, and "defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent. "As a history maker, veteran public servant, political analyst and independent thinker, she urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what's next to save our democracy, the book summary says.

3 hurdles for Trump's ‘big, beautiful bill'

Thank you for signing up! Subscribe to more newsletters here It's Wednesday. Can someone please explain to me why these Labubu key chain plush toys have gone so viral? It's giving 1998 McDonald's Beanie Baby toy. In today's issue: Republicans are desperately hoping to pass President Trump's 'one, big, beautiful bill' by July 4, but the flow of negative headlines is piling on, making this increasingly difficult. Here are three things getting in the way: 1 — That's a doozy of a number: The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) score came out this morning. President Trump's 'one big, beautiful bill' would add $2.4 trillion the national deficit over the next decade, according to the nonpartisan bill scorer's estimate. How it landed on that number: Extending Trump's 2017 tax cuts and other measures would add more than $3.6 trillion to the deficit. To offset those costs, cuts to Medicaid and the food assistance program would reduce spending by roughly $1.2 trillion. Plus: The CBO estimates that roughly 10.9 million people would lose health insurance under the House Republican bill. There's a bit of good news for the Trump team, though: The CBO also found Trump's tariffs would reduce deficits by $2.5 trillion — a point that is sure to aid the administration's efforts to convince lawmakers to back Trump's overall agenda. (Check this afternoon for more on that.) 💡 Why this matters: Senate Republicans are already concerned about two implications of passing this bill into law: Adding to the deficit and Medicaid cuts. The giant price tag in this CBO report, plus the health insurance loss estimate, underscore and magnify their concerns. 2 — Republicans are having second thoughts: House Republicans pushed President Trump's wide-ranging legislative agenda through the House right before the Memorial Day recess, passing the megabill with just one vote to spare. But now, as the dust settles and it moves to the Senate, some House Republicans are admitting they didn't read the whole bill. They have realized there were provisions tucked into the bill that they hadn't noticed — and are regretting their 'yes' votes. Specifically: ➤ Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) didn't realize the bill will block states from regulating artificial intelligence for 10 years. 'Full transparency, I did not know about this section,' she posted on X. ➤ Mike Flood (R-Neb.) has admitted he didn't know the bill would strip judges' power to hold people in contempt. Keep in mind, this could protect Trump and his administration from any legal consequences for violating court orders. 💡 Why this matters: This will likely anger constituents. Their elected leaders are voting for bills without reading them in their entirety. However, this is how Congress works these days. Lawmakers have such a hard time passing bills, so they often cram unrelated priorities into one big megabill. The text is more than 1,000 pages, and lawmakers are under enormous pressure from leadership and the president to stay in line and vote 'yes.' However, there are big ramifications for both provisions. Read The New York Times's explaineron the two hidden provisions. 💬 Follow today's live blog 3 — Elon Musk is giving political cover to the holdouts: Tech billionaire Elon Musk has been raging against congressional Republicans' bill to advance President Trump's priorities, throwing a wrench into Senate Majority Leader John Thune's (R-S.D.) goal of passing it by July 4. Musk has called it a 'disgusting abomination' and 'pork-filled,' just to highlight a few of his descriptors. How does Trump feel about Musk these days, you ask?: Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) just said Trump is 'not delighted that Elon did a 180' in opposing the bill. Are we seeing a crack in Trump and Musk's friendship? 💡Why this matters: Musk is no longer working in the White House, so his influence shouldn't be as relevant. But he's giving political cover to the Senate Republicans — such as Sens. Ron Johnson (Wis.), Mike Lee (Utah) and Rand Paul (Ky.) — who already oppose the bill. ^Plus: There is another group of Republicans with different concerns about the bill. Sens. Susan Collins (Maine), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), Josh Hawley (Mo.) and Jerry Moran (Kan.) are worried about the Medicaid cuts. Read more on how Musk has thrown a wrench into the GOP plan, via The Hill's Alexander Bolton. ➤ HOW THE WHITE HOUSE IS COMBATING THE OPPOSITION: Trump's deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller pegged the 'big, beautiful bill' as 'the most MAGA bill ever passed by the House.' 🔎 Read his full defense Trump has also been meeting with Senate Republicans to get them on board. 🌡️️ IN THE WHITE HOUSE President Trump's steel and aluminum tariffs doubled to 50 percent today. The executive order went into effect at 12:01 a.m. and applies to nearly all steel and aluminum imports. Keep in mind: The United Kingdom is exempt from the new tariff and will remain at its 25 percent tariff rate. That's because of the trade deal the U.S. and the U.K. reached last month. 🔎 Read the executive order ➤ 'WHY TACO TRADE GETS UNDER TRUMP'S SKIN': Remember when a reporter asked Trump about the acronym 'Trump Always Chickens Out' or TACO, coined by a Financial Times columnist, referring to the president's tariff policies? Well, The Hill's Brett Samuels reports that this comment 'has struck a particular nerve with the president, who built his brand on his business acumen and presents himself as a master dealmaker.' How some are poking at this nickname: Democrats parked a taco truck outside the Republican National Committee's headquarters Tuesday. The Drudge Report's front page last week showed the president covered in Mexican food. 🌮 Read more ➤ IT'S A PARTY ON THE WHITE HOUSE LAWN: Trump is hosting more than 3,200 political appointees for a 'summer soiree' on the White House lawn, per Fox News.
