Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) avoided answering a question on Monday about whether President Donald Trump could pursue a third term in office. 
What Happened: When asked by a reporter if Trump could run again, Graham replied, "Ask me in '27," before leaving the scene, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5224532-trump-third-term-constitutional/">reported</a> The Hill.
This exchange occurred amidst ongoing discussions about the possibility of Trump seeking a third term. The U.S. Constitution, through the 22nd Amendment, restricts individuals to two presidential terms. However, Trump has repeatedly hinted at the idea, sparking debates and speculation.
On Sunday, Trump told NBC News about potential loopholes that might enable him to serve another term, stating,&nbsp;"A lot of people want&nbsp;me to do it." He emphasized that his current focus is on his ongoing administration. Despite the constitutional limitations,&nbsp;Trump has floated the idea&nbsp;several times, including during a St. Patrick's Day event with the Irish prime minister.
Some observers suggest Trump's remarks might be aimed at provoking Democrats. Meanwhile, Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) proposed a constitutional amendment in January to allow Trump another term, citing his impact on reversing national decline.

Why It Matters: The idea of a third term for Trump has been a recurring theme in his public appearances. In May 2024, during the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38909755/donald-trump-for-third-term-ex-president-floats-controversial-idea-at-nra-convention">NRA Convention</a>, Trump drew comparisons to Franklin D. Roosevelt, who served four terms, and received applause for his suggestion. This has fueled ongoing discussions about the constitutional limits of presidential terms.
Trump mentioned the possibility of a third term on Sunday while acknowledging that his current term is his priority. He noted that many people support the idea of him seeking another term. The president stressed that he has a &#8220;long way to go&#8221; in his present administration before considering another stint in the White House.

Lindsey Graham Dodges Third Term Question After Trump Makes It Amply Clear He's Not Joking About It

Billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban says he doesn't need a political title to shake up big systems—and if he were ever asked to replace Elon Musk in running the government, he'd still aim to shrink it dramatically.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Cuban Would Still Shrink Government—Just With a Plan</h2>
&#8220;Trying to cut the size of government&#8230; and cutting a lot of people for better or worse, comes with the territory,&#8221; Cuban said on a recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=di3AqpoLI74">episode</a> of &#8220;The Lincoln Project Podcast.&#8221; &#8220;You can&#8217;t make government smaller and not cut hundreds of thousands, if not, you know, some significant number.&#8221;

</ul>
Cuban joined host Rick Wilson for a wide-ranging discussion about politics, tech culture, healthcare, and economic policy. Throughout the interview, Cuban stressed the importance of planning and transparency, and his belief that without a strategy, drastic government cuts result in more harm than good.
&#8220;Shock and awe is great, but if there&#8217;s no plan behind shock and awe, it&#8217;s just shock and awful,&#8221; he said.
Cuban recently slammed changes to Social Security as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44498325/gonna-be-some-upset-seniors-at-town-halls-says-mark-cuban-he-calls-doge-social-security-actions-a-back-door-move-to-cut-payments">stealthy way to reduce benefits</a>. "Got to give Doge credit for being the first to cut entitlements," Cuban <a href="https://x.com/mcuban/status/1902418507901628602">posted</a> March 19 on X, referring to the Department of Government Efficiency, led by Musk. "End telephone support for Social Security, cut dozens of SS offices and make Grandma and Grandpa finally get online to confirm their payments. What an amazing back-door way to cut payments!"

He added, "Gonna be some upset seniors at town halls!" The post quickly went viral, with more than 9 million views.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Government Cuts: Not If, But How</h2>
Cuban said he agreed with the idea of making government smaller, something he says he discussed with then-presidential candidate Kamala Harris while campaigning for her. But he disagrees with how it&#8217;s being done by current political leaders.
&#8220;What they&#8217;ve done is ready, fire, aim,&#8221; he said. According to him, there&#8217;s a right way to do it, with a staggered plan that communicates what you&#8217;re doing, &#8220;so there&#8217;s not chaos and economic uncertainty.&#8221;
He warned that slashing government jobs and funding without a plan can result in severe second-order effects, especially in small towns. &#8220;They&#8217;re cutting the forestry service and a lot of those people live in small towns in the state of Washington or the state of Oregon, and now all of a sudden, those towns, their economies are decimated.&#8221;
He also pointed out that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43853560/we-are-not-waste-education-researchers-slam-elon-musks-881-million-cuts-that-shut-down-studies-on-student-learning-and-school-data">cutting college grants and research budgets</a> leads to layoffs, impacting contractors, communities and the economy at large.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Not a Politician, but Still Speaking Out</h2>
Cuban made it known that he&#8217;s not running for office. But as a self-made billionaire, he said he&#8217;s in a unique position to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44431190/billionaire-mark-cuban-questions-motives-behind-national-turnaround-efforts-asks-who-will-be-worse-off-in-the-us-economic-shift">call things like he sees them</a> without worrying about political fallout.
&#8220;I got rich as f&#x2A;&#x2A;&#x2A;, so I didn't have to care what anybody thought,&#8221; Cuban said. &#8220;I'm focused on doing something I think is very beneficial, which is Cost Plus Drugs and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42742855/mark-cuban-says-this-is-single-payer-how-his-healthcare-model-could-transform-the-u-s-healthcare-system">changing health care and trying to save lives and save money</a>.&#8221;
Unlike many political donors, Cuban said he doesn't give money to candidates. Instead, he wants his ideas to stand on their own: &#8220;Either my ideas hold up and you think there&#8217;s value in them or they don&#8217;t. And if they don&#8217;t, that&#8217;s fine too.&#8221;

President <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/trump">Donald Trump </a>appointed journalist Sara Carter as the next director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), or the &#8220;drug czar,&#8221; <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-appoints-sara-carter-next-drug-czar-says-she-will-lead-charge-protect-us">reported</a> Fox News, quoting the president's comments on social media.
"It is my great honor to announce Sara Carter as our next Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). Sara is an Award Winning Journalist, who has been on the front lines of this International Fight for decades," Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114241662387997605">wrote</a> on Truth Social. "From Afghanistan to our Border, Sarah's relentless pursuit of Justice, especially in tackling the Fentanyl and Opioid Crisis, has exposed terrorists, drug lords, and sex traffickers. As our next Drug Czar, Sara will lead the charge to protect our Nation, and save our children from the scourge of drugs.
Like most of Trump&#8217;s appointees and cabinet members, Carter is a former Fox News contributor who has called for stronger border policies.
What sets her apart is that Carter has called medical marijuana a "fantastic" treatment for seriously ill people and apparently, she has no problem with legalizing cannabis. But, it's not her cup of tea.
"I don't have any problem if it's legalized and it's monitored," she said in her podcast The Sara Carter Show, <a href="https://www.marijuanamoment.net/trumps-new-white-house-drug-czar-called-medical-marijuana-a-fantastic-treatment-for-cancer-patients/">reported</a> Marijuana Moment. "I mean, I may have my own issues of how I feel about that, but I do believe that cannabis for medicinal purposes and medical reasons is a fantastic way of handling — especially for people with cancer and other illnesses, you know — of handling the illness and the side effects of the medication and those illnesses. So I'm not saying we've gotta make it illegal."
During his presidential campaign, Trump himself <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/08/40666944/donald-trump-supports-cannabis-legalization-in-florida-game-changer-and-huge-blow-to-ron-desanti" target="_blank" rel="noopener">made overtures</a> to that same idea. However, he has since barely mentioned the idea of federally legalizing cannabis and welcoming the $30 billion industry into the fold.

Trump's New Drug Czar: Cannabis Is 'Fantastic' For People With Serious Illnesses

President Donald Trump is preparing to announce his most expansive tariff plan to date, set to take effect on April 2 — a date he has dubbed &#8220;Liberation Day.&#8221; While specifics remain unclear, he has said the plan will impose &#8220;reciprocal tariffs&#8221; on countries deemed to have unfair trade barriers against U.S. goods, with some nations set to face steeper <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/03/44566164/exclusive-could-trumps-liberation-day-reciprocal-tariffs-crash-the-stock-market-48-say-this">consequences than others. </a>
What To Know: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has hinted at targeting a subset of nations he referred to as the &#8220;Dirty 15&#8221; in a Fox Business interview on March 18. Bessent described the "Dirty 15" as the 15% of nations that account for the bulk of U.S. trading volume and impose hefty tariffs and other barriers on U.S. goods.&nbsp;

National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett similarly cited 10 to 15 countries responsible for the U.S.'s $1 trillion trade deficit, though neither official named specific nations.
Dirty 15: A CNBC<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/31/trump-tariffs-dirty-15-reciprocal-retaliation.html"> report pointed</a> to 2024 data from the Department of Commerce that identified China, the EU, Mexico, Vietnam, Germany, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Canada, India, Thailand, Italy, Switzerland, Malaysia, Indonesia, France, Austria and Sweden.
A separate U.S. Trade representative notice flagged 21 countries in which it is "particularly interested" as part of a review of <a href="https://ustr.gov/about-us/policy-offices/press-office/press-releases/2025/february/ustr-seeks-comment-public-unfair-and-non-reciprocal-foreign-trade-practices-0">unfair trade practices</a>. The countries listed were: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, the EU, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, the U.K. and Vietnam.
It remains unclear exactly which countries will be targeted in Wednesday's tariff announcements. CNBC said the White House did not respond to its request for clarification on the forthcoming tariffs or the Dirty 15.
Trump on Sunday dismissed the idea of limiting tariffs to a select group, stating the measures would &#8220;start with all countries&#8221; and lack a &#8220;cutoff.&#8221; Trump's comments contradicted earlier suggestions of a narrower focus and fueled market volatility, with global stocks sliding ahead of the announcement.
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), tracking the S&amp;P 500, shed 5.86% over the past month and the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), tracking the Nasdaq 100 index, dropped 7.72% in March amid the political and economic uncertainty.

If You Invested $1000 In This Stock 5 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

Since its release on Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) on March 13, "Adolescence" has been one of the most-watched series on the streaming platform, adding to the potential strong lineup <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43700767/netflix-stock-attractive-at-all-time-highs-for-analyst-virtuous-circle-of-strong-subscriber-growth-more-revenue-and-growing-profit">of 2025 content.</a>
Billionaire Elon Musk shared a theory about the series, which has the show's co-writer clapping back at his allegations.
What Happened: Netflix<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43114866/netflix-q4-earnings-record-subscribers-nfl-squid-game-push-past-highest-expectations"> ended the fourth quarter</a> with 301.63 million paid subscribers. The streaming giant could add to that figure throughout 2025 with many highly anticipated series coming back.
Adding to the 2025 early hype is "Adolescence."
While the series has drawn plenty of support, one social media user accused the series of "anti-white propaganda."
"Netflix has a show called Adolescence that's about a British knife killer who stabbed a girl to death on a bus and it's based on real-life cases such as the Southport murderer. So guess what. They race swapped the actual killer from a black man/migrant to a white boy and the story has it so he was radicalized online by the red pill movement. Just the absolute state of anti-white propaganda," journalist Ian Miles Cheong <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1902586606575313345">tweeted</a>.
The tweet drew the attention of Musk, who replied, "Wow."
Another X user was quick to point out some false items in Cheong's tweet, including that the series was written and filming began before Southport happened.
Jack Thorne, who co-wrote "Adolescence," is now speaking out to clear the air. Thorne said on a podcast that "nothing could be further from the truth" when discussing the race-swapping allegations, as reported by <a href="https://variety.com/2025/tv/global/adolescence-writer-rejects-race-swap-theory-elon-musk-1236352337/">Variety</a>.
"There is no part of this that's based on a true story, not one single part," Thorne said.
The series co-writer said having a white boy in the series isn't about making a point about race.
"We're not making a point about race with this. We are making a point about masculinity. We're trying to get inside a problem. We're not saying this is one thing or another, we're saying that this is about boys."

 Why It's Important: The series drew 24.3 million views in its first week on Netflix and an additional 42 million views in its second week, ranking first among English-language shows each week.
On <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31806037/">IMDb</a>, the series ranks number one in popularity and has an 8.3 rating out of 10. The series also has top <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/adolescence">ratings </a>on Rotten Tomatoes, with a critic rating of 99% and an audience score of 73%.
Musk's amplification of the anti-white propaganda post could keep some people from watching the series, which may be bad for Netflix.
The response from the show's co-writer is another example of how dangerous posts on social media can be in getting others to believe something just because another person said it was true.

Here's How Much $100 Invested In Advanced Energy Indus 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

If your last name is Buffett, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44482365/warren-buffetts-son-wasnt-raised-like-a-billionaires-kid-he-mowed-lawns-and-cleaned-gutters-because-there-are-jerks-with-money-and-jerks-without">people assume you're rich</a>. Not just "doing well" rich. Private jet, personal sushi chef, champagne-for-breakfast rich. But according to Howard Buffett—Warren Buffett's son—you'd be wrong. Very wrong.
In a <a href="https://fortune.com/2012/11/21/the-children-of-the-rich-and-famous/">1990 Fortune interview</a>, Howard explained people often attempt to use him just to get something from his dad. "When I get back to my office this afternoon, there will be nine messages," he said. "Eight of them will be from people wanting something from my dad." That was decades ago. Before viral GoFundMes, LinkedIn pitches, and inboxes flooded with crypto ideas. Howard was already living in the shadow of the world's most famous value investor, fielding daily requests just for having the audacity to share a surname.

<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.</li>
</ul>
And it wasn't just inbox clutter.
"One night at a restaurant," he recalled, "I pulled out my checkbook to pay the bill, and some guy says, ‘Gee, I wish I had that checkbook!' I didn't have the patience to tell him, ‘No, buddy, you really don't.'"
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Billionaire Dad… But Rent's Still Due</h2>
While Warren Buffett built a financial empire out of Omaha, his kids didn't grow up with butlers or gated mansions. In fact, Howard became a farmer—and a grounded one. At one point, he was paying his own father rent for the land. Because, yes, even if your dad is worth over $100 billion, Warren still wants you to understand the value of a dollar and in this case, the value of a lease agreement.&nbsp;
The Buffett kids—Howard, Susie, and Peter—have long echoed the same message: their dad's money isn't their money.
Trending: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/warren-buffet-make-money-when-you-sleep"> Here&#8217;s how you can earn passive income with just $100.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Then Came the $600 Million Gift —Sort Of</h2>
Now, to be fair, Warren isn't stingy. He's just strategic. In 2012, as <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/businessmain/warren-buffett-his-birthday-gives-kids-600m-972645">NBC News reported</a>, he rang in his 82nd birthday by giving each of his three kids a gift… about $600 million worth of Berkshire Hathaway stock. But there's a twist—this wasn't for shopping sprees or yachts. It was for their charitable foundations.
That move brought each child's philanthropic firepower to a billion-dollar level, while still aligning with their dad's core belief: "You should leave your children enough so they can do anything, but not so much that they can do nothing."
Translation? You're getting capital—but not carte blanche.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Buffett's Inbox Problem Became Doris's Mission</h2>
Of course, when word gets out that you're charitable—your mailbox turns into a wish list. When Warren Buffett pledged in 2006 to give away most of his wealth, <a href="https://www.politico.com/story/2014/05/warren-buffett-doris-sister-sunshine-lady-foundation-107104">Politico</a> reported he was swamped with letters asking for help. Instead of ignoring them, he called in reinforcement: his older sister Doris.
Doris set up the Letters Foundation, a kind of philanthropic triage unit where real people with real problems—often just victims of bad luck—could get help. According to Warren, Doris and her all-women team "believe a lot of people got short straws in life, and she wants to help them." And unlike most billionaire philanthropy, these weren't high-profile causes or gala-funded grants. These were everyday people in crisis, and Doris read their stories one by one.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">So…Is Howard Rich Now?</h2>
Back in 1990, Howard insisted he wasn't rich. But since then, he's been entrusted with a charitable foundation sitting on hundreds of millions of dollars in assets—and growing. That doesn't make him personally wealthy in the traditional sense, but it does mean he's rich in influence, especially when it comes to causes he cares about—like food security and conservation.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">In Buffett World, Legacy Over Luxury</h2>
Warren Buffett's legacy isn't just his investment track record—it's how deliberately <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/41866296/with-warren-buffett-donating-99-of-his-fortune-whats-left-for-his-three-children-well-its-complicated">unspoiled he's kept his children</a>.&nbsp;
And if you're wondering how Warren himself defines rich? According to Alice Schroeder's biography of Buffett, "The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life," he told student as the University of Georgia in 2001, "If you get to my age in life and nobody thinks well of you, I don't care how big your bank account is, your life is a disaster."

Detroit automakers are attempting to reassure their employees as they work to mitigate challenges posed by President Donald Trump&#8217;s sweeping 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts set to go<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44560524/auto-stocks-skid-after-trump-shrugs-off-higher-prices-should-you-buy-the-dip"> into effect on Thursday.&nbsp;</a>
What To Know: The Detroit Free Press said it <a href="https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/ford/2025/03/30/gm-ford-leaders-assure-employees-companies-future-amid-auto-tariffs/82721842007/">obtained</a> internal memos dated March 27 from both General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>).
Ford CEO Jim Farley told employees in the memo that the company is still examining <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44517885/trump-slaps-25-tariffs-on-autos-what-it-means-for-your-next-car-purchase">potential impacts </a>from the tariffs, which it expects to be &#8220;likely to be significant."

&#8220;While Ford supports the president's vision of building a stronger auto industry and manufacturing base in the United States, the situation is dynamic and the impacts of the tariffs are likely to be significant across our industry — affecting automakers, suppliers, dealers and customers,&#8221; Farley wrote. 
He noted nearly 80% of the vehicles Ford sells in the states are made in the U.S. but, &#8220;this does not mean Ford is immune to the impact of tariffs, which could be meaningful.&#8221;
&#8220;I assure you that our Ford team has been and will continue to engage closely with the Trump administration as well as policymakers in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and other markets to help shape these critical trade and policy issues,&#8221; Farley added. 
The Detroit Free Press also reported that it obtained an unsigned internal memo from General Motors which noted the tariffs will have an impact on the company's manufacturing operations and supply chain, though it did not give exact figures or estimates. 
The memo did say GM leadership is planning to keep the company &#8220;nimble based on any tariffs announced by the U.S. administration,&#8221; and the company supports a strong U.S.-based auto industry. 
It also encouraged employees to focus on their work and on managing costs.&nbsp;
&#8220;We are in a strong position to navigate this dynamic situation and will continue to deliver for our customers, employees, and communities. Each of us can contribute by staying focused and delivering on plans for this year, maintaining a disciplined approach and managing discretionary costs,&#8221; the GM memo reads.&nbsp;
What Else: President Trump on Saturday expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44552465/trump-unfazed-by-potential-auto-price-hikes-amid-new-tariffs-i-couldnt-care-less">his anticipation </a>for price increases in response to the tariffs on auto imports and reaffirmed his decision to raise tariffs in an effort to boost American manufacturing.
"I couldn't care less if they raise prices, because people are going to start buying American-made cars," Trump stated in an interview <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-says-couldnt-care-less-automakers-raise-prices-tariffs-rcna198731">with</a> NBC News.&nbsp;
GM, F Price Action: General Motors shares ended Monday's session 0.75% higher at $47.03 and Ford shares closed 3.19% higher at $10.03, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Within the domain of banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks.

Some analysts will also offer forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide further guidance on stocks. Investors who use analyst ratings should note that this specialized advice comes from humans and may be subject to error.
