Washington—President Trump was the boisterous showman in chief before a joint session of Congress Tuesday night — boldly declaring “America is back” and its “greatest era” was underway as he brushed past petulant Democratic protests to lay out both the accomplishments and the agenda of his second term.
Trump, 78, described his avalanche of executive orders and new initiatives as a “common sense revolution” during the 99-minute address — the longest in modern history — echoing the theme of his second inaugural address as the opposition largely sat on their hands and seethed before drifting quietly into the DC night.
“Six weeks ago, I stood beneath the dome of this Capitol
President Trump called out Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren (MA) during his Congressional Address on Tuesday after the Democrat clapped in favor of five more years of war in Ukraine.
Democrats interrupted with loud clapping as President Trump noted that hundreds of billions of dollars have gone to Ukraine, and “millions of Ukrainians and Russians have been needlessly killed or wounded in this horrific and brutal conflict with no end in sight.”
They were clapping for war!
Trump then asked, “You want to keep it going for another five years?” and Elizabeth Warren continued clapping. “Yeah, you would say— Pocahontas says, Yes,” Trump replied.
Call this the Dollar Tree Policy. Or the Robocop Policy, if you're more cinematically minded: Donald Trump promised to actually cut spending in Washington, and the DOGE effort already shows how seriously he took that pledge. However, DOGE didn't just have USAID or grant programs on their radar screen. They also took aim at bureaucrats with government-issued credit cards, with the aim of bringing their discretionary spending to an abrupt halt. The Wall Street Journal reported on the new one-dollar limit that many may have discovered the hard way:
You might not need to watch the Democratic Party’s response to President Donald Trump’s address to Congress tonight. First, only news junkies and psychopaths do this sort of thing. Second, the choice to deliver the response is laughably obvious: Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI). Democrats are desperate to win over rural working-class voters but also not willing to do the work on voter outreach. Third, Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-CA) already delivered the address at one of these unhinged Capitol Hill get-togethers.
Democrats lost it during President Trump’s first address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.
Democrat lawmakers were disruptive and looked disgusted as President Trump outlined the rapid success of his second administration.
Here’s Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) reaction to President Trump celebrating the abolishment of DEI and making our country “Woke no longer”: (Photo) As The Gateway Pundit reported, Democrats were unhinged, booing President Trump at the beginning of his speech. Far-left Democrat Rep. Al Green (TX) was forcibly removed from the Capitol over his repeated disruptions.
Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) delivers the Democrat response to President Donald Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday, March 4.
President Trump addressed multiple common sense issues that he has tackled in his return to the White House by executive order that Democrats have opposed. Slotkin, who narrowly won her Senate seat in 2024, was selected to deliver a refutation of Trump’s overwhelmingly popular policies. Trump has called for a “Golden Age of America” in his return to office, a seemingly self-defeating position for Democrats to oppose.
Rep. Al Green was escorted out of the U.S. Capitol chamber Tuesday night after interrupting President Donald Trump’s joint congressional address. The Texas Democrat stood and interrupted Trump at the start of the speech as he started speaking, “You don’t have a mandate,” Green began before Republicans stood and drowned him out with jeers and a chant of “USA.” House Speaker Mike Johnson warned the congressman before calling for him to be removed. “Members are directed to uphold and maintain the quorum in the House and to cease any further disruptions. That’s your warning,” Johnson told the room before addressing
President Donald Trump is proving once again why he’s the king of slashing government waste and draining the swamp.
In a blockbuster report from Bloomberg, the Trump administration has unveiled plans to unload a massive portfolio of 443 federal properties across 47 states, D.C., and Puerto Rico—properties bloated with bureaucracy, including the headquarters of the DOJ, FBI, and even the General Services Administration (GSA) itself.
The General Services Administration (GSA) disclosed a list of 443 “non-core” assets, encompassing a mix of prime commercial spaces that currently serve as regional hubs for various federal agencies.
Veteran conservative journalist and broadcaster Vince Coglianese will take over the radio time slot and podcast window of incoming FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino.
Coglianese will anchor the The VINCE Show and VINCE podcast set to debut March 17, and Cumulus Media’s Westwood One will syndicate the live radio programming, according to a release from the media company.
“The VINCE Show and VINCE podcast are set to redefine conservative talk with their compelling mix of Vince’s signature blend of insight into and knowledge of the inner workings of Washington, DC, in-depth interviews, and live caller interactions,” the release read.
“Official” is a very English word. It has its roots in the Old French “oficial” and the Latin “officialis,” and now — thanks to a new Trump executive order — describes the status of the English language.
President Trump’s executive action making English our official language repeals a Bill Clinton executive order that required the government, as well as groups receiving federal funds, to provide language assistance to non-English speakers. (Photo) Trump’s move will have little practical effect, since the increase in bilingualism in the United States has been driven by high levels of immigration from Spanish-speaking countries rather than direct government action.
As Jeff wrote today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky caved. Following his disastrous Oval Office meeting last Friday, he’s crawling back to President Donald Trump and will reportedly sign the minerals deal after hurling that agreement into doubt. Trump will announce that during his address to Congress later this evening. (X) It was a self-inflicted political gunshot wound; the man looked down the barrel of his own gun and got a face-full of buckshot. Only the densest, most anti-Trump commentators blamed Trump; everyone else knew better.
Democrats are exposing their true colors by worshiping at the alter of radical transgenderism at the expense of the safety of women and girls, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) told Breitbart News Tuesday in an exclusive interview.
“Democrats, by doubling and tripling down on the radical transgender agenda that the American people find incredibly distasteful, by forcing girls to compete with boys in sports and pushing transgender surgeries on young children, they are proving themselves to be the party of perverts,” Gill told Breitbart News.
Over the weekend, Vice President JD Vance took his family on a ski trip to Vermont.
But the left being the left decided to protest him there in Vermont. There was a protest from the progressive group Indivisible Calais in Waitsfield, where the focus seemed to be on Ukraine. Somehow, they always look the same and have no grasp of the facts. (X Video) One protester pitched the same nonsense about being “scared about losing Social Security or Medicaid" when Trump and Vance aren't touching that.
UPDATE: Sources at the White House saying this Reuters report is not true.
President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are reportedly to sign a comprehensive minerals agreement, to be announced Tuesday, Reuters reported, citing four sources.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is in full damage-control mode after a disastrous Oval Office meeting with President Donald Trump last week, admitting in a Tuesday statement that the meeting “did not go the way it was supposed to.”
The Ukrainian leader, who has long relied on endless U.S. funding under the Biden administration, was reportedly blindsided by Trump’s hard-nosed stance on negotiating an end to the war.
Several Democrats in both chambers of Congress are planning to skip President Trump’s first address to lawmakers of his second White House term Tuesday night, expected to be a wide-ranging speech after six weeks in office. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) posted Tuesday on social media that she wouldn’t attend.
[Snip] Several Senate Democrats are also opting to skip Trump’s speech. “Instead of attending Trump’s SOTU, I’m speaking with constituents of mine like Scott, a disabled veteran who worked at VA helping to house homeless veterans,” Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) said Tuesday on X. “Elon fired Scott. I’ll be sharing his story
Chicago was founded by fur traders. Now, it might soon kick them out. An ordinance banning the sale of new fur products advanced in the City Council Tuesday, setting up a final vote as soon as next week. Ald. Raymond Lopez, the ban’s author, hopes the move will stifle the “barbaric and inhumane” fur industry, and said existing furriers need to evolve. “We know we can transition away from formerly live fur products,” Lopez, 15th, told aldermen.
Have you seen the Denver restaurant scene? Me neither. It’s dead and gone.
In a one-year period, the number of restaurants in Denver declined by 183. Of all the restaurant closures in Colorado last year, 82% were in Denver – a place that has only about 12% of the population of Colorado.
Average profits at the few surviving Denver restaurants are only 3-5%. Anyone who dines out knows that this isn’t because prices are down. It’s because costs are up. Restaurant wages in Denver are up 89% since 2019.
The main reason is Denver’s minimum wage of $18.81/hour for ordinary workers and $15.79 for tipped workers. For comparison, in New York City

Posters, and Props replies
Some congressional Democrats are planning ways to disrupt President Donald Trump’s Tuesday night Capitol Hill speech with a variety of props and theatrics, Axios reported Tuesday.
While Democrat leadership has suggested that members bring guests who have been affected by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to the speech, some of the party’s more aggressive anti-Trump lawmakers are thinking of ways to go above and beyond to demonstrate their distaste for the president, according to Axios. Tactics under consideration include possible walk outs, using “noisemakers,” bringing eggs or empty egg cartons to bring attention to elevated egg prices and carrying pocket-sized copies of the Constitution
President Donald Trump was “actively trying to destroy” the United States because it’s possible he “hates” the country.
When asked how Democrats should react to Trump’s upcoming speech, Carville said, “This man is actively trying to destroy the United States, and I think we ought to treat this moment with real gravitas. I think we’ve got a very good selection in Senator Slotkin to deliver the rebuttal. But my advice is either don’t go or go and sit on your hands and look grim, because the country is in a grim position right now. I hope the Democrats act like that.”
The Office of Personnel Management on Tuesday updated its guidance to department heads that demanded the firing of federal workers, adding that it’s up to the agency on whether to boot their hires.
The slight shift in the memo updates a Day 1 order from the OPM directing all government agencies to pull together a list of all employees still in their probationary period, those who were either hired or promoted within the last year or two — a period that varies by agency.

Payton McNabb, a former high school girls volleyball player who was left with serious brain damage after being hit in the face by a transgender opponent, has been left stunned by an offer from President Donald Trump.
McNabb was 17 when a ball spiked by a trans opponent with force struck her in the face, threw her to the ground and left her unconscious while she played a volleyball match in September 2022.
McNabb was left with brain damage and paralysis on her right side, which ended her dreams of getting a volleyball college scholarship and has made it difficult to walk without falling.
Democrats think their problem is a messaging problem, that people just aren't getting it.
Now, the second part of that axiomatically implies that the American people are stupid, that they just don't understand how good the Democrats would be for them, so voters reject them. The first part is also ridiculous. Because it isn't just the messaging; it's the radical ideas and the policies that the Democrats embrace that the American people are rejecting.
But I guess someone decided somewhere that they all needed to be on the same message. We reported on a communique that five Senators put out
Throughout the presidential campaign -- even dating back to before President Biden was forced out of the race, and the primary elections were nullified -- Democrats possessed exactly one talking point on the border crisis. In the face of ten million illegal border crossings over the span of four years, entirely due to policy choices by the ruling party, the incumbents endlessly blamed the failure of a Senate bill as the scapegoat for the unprecedented crisis of their creation. We addressed that legislation on the merits at the time.
Things may get heated in Congress, but never do they fall apart like this. Opposition lawmakers in Serbia threw smoke grenades and tear gas at fellow parliamentarians in a show of opposition to the government and to express their support for current student protests. The demonstrations were a response to the collapse of a roof at a train station several months ago that killed 15 people and now threatens to bring down the country’s government. The attack took place during a legislative session after the ruling coalition, led by the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), approved the parliamentary agenda.

The left — including the Democrat Party, of course — has seemingly forever lived and breathed via code words and buzz phrases. From "glass ceiling" to the "Me Too Movement" to "systemic racism" to referring to illegal aliens (which is a term used in existing U.S. immigration law) as "undocumented migrants," Democrats have relied on emotional responses of their base, rather than facts, history, logic, and common sense."For years," wrote author and political commentator Jonathan Turley in his column Tuesday, "the mantra on the left was “reimagining” everything from policing to free speech to defense. 'Reimagining' often was a synonym for defunding or limiting the subject matter."
There are many stories about January 6 that fall by the wayside. Several January 6 defendants got extensive media coverage, especially in the immediate aftermath of January 6, but this is not representative of the overall body.
Most defendants remain nameless, faceless hostages. Real Americans have been rendered as caricatures as a way of pigeonholing them and glossing over the real experiences of that complicated day.
OATH KEEPERS AND JANUARY 6...
Kelly Meggs was a humble Florida resident and general manager in the car business before January 6, not a soldier or commando.
The European Union (EU) has been talking very tough about its unwavering and unlimited support for Ukraine since Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s disastrous visit to the White House, but data published by an independent research organization shows the EU spent more on Russian oil and gas in 2024 than it spent on Ukraine.
The Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA), a group opposed to burning fossil fuels, calculated that European nations spent $23 billion buying Russian fuel in 2024, compared to $19.6 billion in foreign aid provided to Ukraine.
Donald Trump's tactic of using threats to get what he wants in business and politics is something political leaders worldwide are gradually growing accustomed to. But the deal to end the Ukraine war the US president is apparently forging behind the scenes with Russian President Vladimir Putin has rattled government leaders, especially in Europe, who fear Trump could withdraw US military protection of the continent.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has responded to these concerns by announcing an increase in the UK's defense budget to 2.5% of gross domestic product (GDP) by 2027, up from the current 2.3%.
President Donald Trump's aggressive approach toward Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is highly controversial, but it may be the best way to negotiate an end to a war that has killed hundreds of thousands of people and enters a fourth year locked in a blood-soaked stalemate.
Trump and Vice President JD Vance demonstrated an America-first strategy in their contentious meeting with Zelenskyy on Friday at the White House. Unfortunately, most Democrats and even some Republicans are too blinded by their hatred of Trump to see that as a good thing.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) said in a release that it has identified more than $800 million in savings or “cost avoidance” for fiscal 2025 among information technology, grants, property and payroll.
The SSA stated that it froze hiring and “drastically” cut back on overtime, saving about $550 million.
The government agency that administers the Social Security program said it cut back $150 million from the information technology systems (ITS) budget by canceling “non-essential contracts and identifying reductions in other ITS contracts.”
Acting SSA Commissioner Lee Dudek said Monday evening the agency has “operated on autopilot” for far too long.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivered a strong rebuke of President Donald Trump's decision to level punishing tariffs on their country.
He cited the Wall Street Journal to criticize Trump, and call his decision 'dumb.'
'Donald, they point out that even though you are a very smart guy, this is a very dumb thing to do,' he said angrily at a press conference on Tuesday.
Imports from Canada will now be taxed at 25 percent as Trump's tariffs went into effect on Tuesday.
'Today the United States launched a trade war against Canada, their closest partner and ally, and their closest friend,' Trudeau said. 'At the same time they're talking about
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote a message directed at President Trump on Tuesday after the US paused military aid to Ukraine, saying, “It is time to make things right.”
“Our meeting in Washington, at the White House on Friday, did not go the way it was supposed to be. It is regrettable that it happened this way. It is time to make things right. We would like future cooperation and communication to be constructive,” Zelensky wrote on X.
The Ukrainian president had come to Washington on Friday expecting to sign a minerals deal with the US, but left the White House with no deal
A Connecticut honor student is suing her school district, alleging that she was never taught to read and write.
Aleysha Ortiz, 19, graduated from Hartford Public High School in June with honors and was awarded a scholarship to the University of Connecticut — but despite those achievements, she alleges she is still illiterate, the New York Post reported.
Ortiz, who spent 12 years in the Hartford public school district and is a native of Puerto Rico, testified about her experience at a May city council meeting and explained how the educational system failed her.
“I decided, they [the school] had 12 years,” Ortiz told CNN. “Now it’s my time.”

DOJ, FBI on NGO Corruption After Eight
Groups Tied to ‘Gold Bars’ Scheme replies
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin detailed on The Alex Marlow Show how the Biden administration protected $20 billion in “gold bars” meant for leftist NGOs, many of them with connections to the Biden administration.
Zeldin sent shockwaves in mid-February after he had pledged to recover $20 billion in taxpayer funds that had been sent by the Biden administration to climate change projects and other pet projects of Democrat staffers. The EPA Administrator at the time likened it to “throwing gold bars off the Titanic,” saying that it was a “rush job with reduced oversight.”
Border Patrol agents and their law enforcement partners have managed to seize and prevent more than $25 million in cocaine from reaching the interior of the United States during the past seven days. The latest seizure, which occurred on Thursday near San Clemente, California, was nabbed after a Border Patrol K-9 unit sniffed out the illicit substance hidden in trash bags located in the trunk of a vehicle.
According to Chief Michael W. Banks of the Border Patrol, Thursday’s seizure brought the seven-day total of cocaine to more than $25 million. As reported by Breitbart Texas, in just three separate events
Democrats continue to flounder as President Trump’s Days of Thunder transform the United States of America from the broken Biden years into a secure, prosperous, and responsible nation ready to face the challenges of the 21st century.
Already, the Trump administration has shut down the open border with Mexico, something Biden refused to do. Trump and DOGE has save the American taxpayer billions of dollars lost by previous administrations. Trump continues to eliminate waste and fraud in government. And, this week, President Trump cut funding to the unending War in Ukraine.
Meanwhile, Democrats continue to flounder with policies that are insane and unpopular. Their approval rating is at a dismal 36 percent!
A migrant who escaped an ICE detention facility in Virginia has been recaptured, but three more who escaped with him remain on the loose, law enforcement officials said Monday.
Federal officials booked Jose Lovo-Bautista, 27, back into custody on Monday morning after he fled an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) holding center on Sunday afternoon, according to the Farmville Police Department.
Three other migrants who broke out of the ICE facility alongside Lovo-Bautista are still at large at the time of writing: 22-year-old Wilmer Isaola-Medina, 25-year-old Jose Rodriguez-Rosales, and 22-year-old Byron Toledo-Henriquez.
The Farmville Police Department said it was not immediately informed of the mass escape by Immigration Centers of America (ICA),
In 2006, the brilliant geopolitical scholar Mark Steyn wrote a depressively prescient book about the imminent fate of the Western world, . Steyn posited that Europe would collapse from three main causes: Islamic domination, an unsustainable welfare state, and anti-spiritual solipsism. He added that the United States would be the last nation standing as a majority united Christianist country with the will to power. And that America’s very rejection of the leftist hive mentality would draw the ire of its diminishing allies across the pond.
India’s first medical clinic for people who think they are “transgender” shuttered after President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) gutted the U.S. Agency for International Development.
According to the BBC, Mitr Clinic was started in 2021 in Hyderabad. It offered “HIV treatment, support and counselling services to thousands of transgender people,” the outlet reported.
It didn’t stop there. Two more Mitr Clinics in Thane and Pune opened the same year. They have also been shut down.
This happened because of DOGE
Hong Kong's CK Hutchison Holdings said on Tuesday a consortium including BlackRock Inc would buy an 80% stake in a unit that controls ports in Panama for an equity value of $14.21 billion.
The sale of 90% interest in Panama Ports Company, which owns and operates the ports of Balboa and Cristobal, comes as U.S. President Donald Trump piles on pressure to end what he sees as China's influence and control over the Panama Canal. CK Hutchison has been operating the ports of Balboa and Cristobal at the canal's Pacific and Atlantic entrances for more than two decades.

Democrats are divided over how to respond to President Donald Trump’s first joint address to Congress of his second administration, with many expecting less drama than in previous years as leadership leaves attendance up to the members.
Multiple Democratic lawmakers confirmed to the Washington Examiner that leaders did not issue specific guidance on whether the caucus needed to attend Trump’s address in the House chamber on Tuesday evening. In a “Dear Colleague” letter, Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said the decision will be a “personal one” but urged a “strong, determined and dignified Democratic presence in the chamber.”

The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that EPA cannot enforce requirements in wastewater permits that “do not spell out what a permittee must do or refrain from doing,” in a major blow to the agency’s power under the Clean Water Act.
The 5-4 decision in San Francisco v. EPA resolves a long-running dispute between the progressive West Coast city and the nation’s environmental regulator. Justice Samuel Alito wrote the majority opinion, and Justice Amy Coney Barrett led a partial dissent.
San Francisco had challenged EPA’s attempts to fine the city for allegedly violating its wastewater permit for a sewage treatment plant, which releases large quantities of stormwater and sewage during rain events.
"This is a new DNC," party chairman Ken Martin proclaimed when he won his seat in February. On Monday, he appointed the DNC’s new executive director: a longtime political operative who has worked for at least four losing Democratic presidential campaigns and who lists his pronouns in Chinese on social media.
Martin appointed Roger Lau on Monday to serve as the DNC’s next executive director in a move Politico described as a "stay-the-course approach" following the party’s devastating losses in the 2024 elections. Indeed, Lau has experience working for losing political campaigns. He served as senior adviser to the Harris Victory Fund last year
One of the illegal migrants accused of trying to “breach” Marine Corps Base Quantico last year has been scooped up by ICE for a second time — after President Joe Biden’s ICE let them go, The Post can exclusively reveal.
Hasan Yousef Hamdan, 32, along with student visa overstay Mohammad Khair Dabous, 28, were arrested on May 3 for allegedly trespassing onto the base and swiftly handed over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
By June, however, ICE cut them both loose after they each posted bond on their immigration cases — with Hamdan’s set at $15,000 and Dabous’ set at $10,000.
The illegal migrant pair were charged with misdemeanor trespassing
In which Donald Trump channels Ronald Reagan, circa 1969. Remember this? (You might actually remember it if you're 75 or so ...) At the time, it proved Reagan's mettle as a leader and easily won him a second term from an electorate (in California!) that had grown fed up with on-campus chaos and riots. The moment was so significant in Reagan's political career that it became a featured moment in the recent biopic Reagan, starring Dennis Quaid. Reagan made clear to both protesters and the Academia progressives coddling them that he wouldn't put up with either group.
CNN allowed former television show host Bill Nye to claim that Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) head Elon Musk wanted to replace the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) weather satellites with Starlink Monday. Roughly 880 staffers at NOAA, including many who were on probationary status, were laid off Thursday, CBS News reported, with some of the laid-off employees holding a protest outside the agency’s headquarters. Nye claimed Musk found a “vulnerable part” in the federal government to seize public assets for himself, but never offered evidence.
Conservatives have been positively giddy with the whirlwind of activity out of the White House over the past five weeks. But if President Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress don’t start focusing on the economy, the excitement will be short-lived.
Not only are there worrisome signs of an economic slowdown, but the public is growing increasingly frustrated with what they see as a lack of attention to pocketbook issues on Trump’s part. Republican lawmakers are making matters worse by dawdling on extending Trump’s tax cuts, which is causing businesses to hold off on big investments. This is a lethal combination.
President Trump threatened Tuesday to halt all federal funds for any educational institute that allows “illegal protests” — and vowed that agitators will be unmasked and imprisoned.
The commander-in-chief issued the warning as disruptive anti-Israel and pro-Hamas demonstrations have rocked college campuses across the country.
“All Federal Funding will STOP for any College, School, or University that allows illegal protests,” Trump, 78, wrote in an early Truth Social post.
Rep. Nydia Velázquez (D-NY) was heavily criticized after her comments during a speech outside the Housing and Urban Development Department on Monday, indicating Elon Musk should "go back to South Africa." The remarks were ill-advised on two fronts: 1) She was trying to counter a debunked claim that Musk himself had said Italians should stay in Italy and Japanese people should stay in Japan, and 2) Telling successful immigrants to go back home sure seems xenophobic.
"It was interesting yesterday I was watching a video of an interview of Elon Musk with someone where he said that the Italians should stay in Italy and the Chinese should stay in China,
A transgender-identifying male athlete won a 400-meter women’s race in Staten Island, New York, on Saturday after two teenage girls opted out of competing against him.
Camden Schreiner, 21, who uses the name “Sadie,” came in first place in the Women’s 40o-meter dash open at the USA Track and Field Open Masters Championships with a time of 56:74, according to The Blaze. Schreiner won the race after his opponents, Anna Vidolova, 17, and Amaris Hiatt, 16, did not compete.
The very simple — and unexpected coming from CNBC, which usually runs cover for pharmaceutical corporations as a matter of course — question posed to Albert Bourla:
Vaccine makers like yourself [are] largely shielded from liability. If the products are safe and effective, what is the need to continue to shield, to have these liability shields, and what happens if those shields are changed or go away completely? The very simple answer, assuming the vaccines are actually “safe and effective,” would be: “Nothing happens if we lose our liability shield. We don’t need it because our product is safe and effective, and we are willing to prove that in court
Expressing frustration over the intransigence of Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy who demands to maintain the killing fields in Europe, President Trump says, “America will not put up with it much longer.” The remarks by Zelenskyy follow a meeting in London with various EU leaders who are assembling a ‘coalition of the willing’ to support Ukraine with enlarged military operations. Zelenskyy tells the AP:
““We are talking about the first steps today, and therefore, until they are on paper, I would not like to talk about them in great detail.” “An agreement to end the war is still very, very far away, and no one has started
Former NBC "Meet the Press" anchor Chuck Todd delivered a brutal opinion about former President Biden, calling him a "craven political animal" who was more concerned about his political career than his own family.
During an appearance Sunday on Lincoln Project co-founder Steve Schmidt's "The Warning" podcast, Todd delved into why the Democrats lost the 2024 election and what he perceives as the media's relationship with the second Trump administration.
After decrying older politicians remaining in the leadership of the Democratic Party, Todd returned to Biden's role in the November election loss.
On Monday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said that he doesn’t think California fire relief money will be a blank check and the Trump administration has already started to think of ideas for what the state should do differently.
Zeldin stated, “I think that there [are] going to be conversations in the weeks and months ahead, as Congress is starting to debate whether or not there’s going to be some supplemental that’s sent to California of federal funding that helps with their recovery. There [are] going to be specific issues discussed of what is California going to be doing differently to prevent this from happening again.
President Donald Trump is moving at breakneck speed to advance his America First agenda, and on Tuesday night during primetime, he will address Congress and the American people to give an account of his administration’s progress.
The theme of his joint address to Congress will be “Renewal of the American Dream,” Fox News Digital reports, citing White House officials. According to the report, Trump’s address will feature four main sections: accomplishments from Trump’s second term thus far at home and abroad, what the Trump administration has done for the economy, the president’s renewed push for Congress to pass additional funding for border security, and
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) isn't necessarily known for his intellect or his manners. Not only was he hornswoggled by a putative Chinese spy (Fang Fang) a decade ago (and subsequently denied a spot on the House Intelligence Committee), but there was the unfortunate incident involving an apparent flatulence mishap while giving an on-camera interview. Then, just a week ago, Swalwell reportedly was overheard blabbing loudly at a D.C. steakhouse over dinner with lobbyists about cheating on his wife, Capitol Hill orgies, and wanting to subpoena Ivanka Trump to testify (while he still held his spot on the Intel Committee) because she was "[censored] hot."
Speaking during an event about a new technology investment in America from the White House Monday afternoon, President Donald Trump was asked what Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has to do in order to reopen direct talks about how to to end Russia's invasion of his country. (X Video)
Trump's offer comes after he kicked Zelenskyy out of the White House Friday after a 40 minute long meeting in front of the cameras went south.
First Lady Melania Trump made her first appearance on Capitol Hill, speaking out in a roundtable discussion focused on combating revenge porn. Melania, known for her advocacy on behalf of children and women’s rights, used the opportunity to address the devastating impact of non-consensual pornography. With a strong emphasis on the need for legal action, she urged lawmakers to strengthen penalties and protections for victims of this form of digital abuse.
