April 30, 2025This week marks President Donald Trump’s 100th day since returning to office — and to say it’s been a busy few months in American politics would be an understatement. The latest Washington-ABC News-Ipsos poll shows just 39% of respondents approve of how Trump’s doing as president — the lowest 100-day approval rating in over 70 years. To get a closer look at how women specifically are experiencing this moment, theSkimm invited the Daily Skimm audience to weigh in.

Chrissy Teigen has many gifts: she’s funny, a great cook, and her kids enjoy pizza and spaghetti just like ours. She’s also refreshingly (and unsurprisingly) honest about the challenges of feeding kids.

Also, to whoever is lucky enough to work with @aprilhussar and @ElizabethAngell next: I am so jealous, and you are so lucky.

I was too crushed to post about being laid off back in January, and this turn of events is crushing anew. I'll forever be so proud for the work we did @romper and so grateful for this incredible, dear, illuminating, and overall damn fun chapter of my life.

One of the most fun parts of it all was getting to work with so much INCREDIBLE talent. One of the big moments was the news spreading like wildfire across Slack one day: "We got Meaghan O'Connell?!"

So in an, um, effort to create more efficiency across brands, our beloved @romper is going to be operating at a really reduced rate with a limited budget. I'll still be publishing some features and Romper still exists but it's the end of an era. 💔

"Incredible, dear, illuminating, overall damn fun." @aprilhussar really sums it up.
