Bush and First Lady Barbara Bush will be there, according to an announcement by the office of the first lady. A spokesman for the former president didn't respond to inquiries,...

Melania Trump is a world-class snubber. She skipped almost every event of Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign, only returning to regular political spouse duties late last year, as she had a memoir to plug and a lucrative documentary project to film. Despite suggesting she would be a full-time First Lady in Trump’s second term, she has gone unseen for weeks at a time and even skipped her stepdaughter Tiffany’s baby shower (a People source explained, savagely, that Melania “has her own schedule, even on weekends” and didn’t see “any reason” to attend). Now Melania is getting a small taste of her...

86-year-old Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters recently commented on President Donald Trump's action on illegal immigrants and said Trump should first look at Melania's records. "We don't know whether or not her parents were documented. And maybe we better just take a look," water said at a rally at the weekend in Los Angeles. “If he wants to start looking so closely to find those who were born here and their parents were undocumented, maybe he ought to first look at Melania," Maxine said. “When he [Trump] talks about birthright, and he’s going to undo the fact that the Constitution allows...

In yet another attack on President Donald Trump, some Democrats have targeted his immigration policies by calling for the deportation of his wife, Melania Trump. This outrageous and politically driven statement not only defies common sense but also reveals the left’s obsession with politicizing every aspect of Trump’s life, no matter how absurd. Although Melania Trump is a naturalized American citizen who followed the legal immigration process, left-wing critics are now exploiting her status to advance their anti-Trump, anti-immigrant agenda. These calls for her deportation serve no real purpose other than to further the left’s desperate attempts to undermine Trump’s...

Democratic California Rep. Maxine Waters suggested President Donald Trump should investigate and potentially deport first lady Melania Trump during an anti-DOGE protest in Los Angeles over the weekend. “When he [Trump] talks about birthright, and he’s going to undo the fact that the Constitution allows those who are born here, even if the parents are undocumented, they have a right to stay in America. If he wants to start looking so closely to find those who were born here and their parents were undocumented, maybe he ought to first look at Melania,” Waters was seen saying from the stage of...

This Ash Wednesday, we join in prayer with the tens of millions of American Catholics and other Christians beginning the holy season of Lent—a time of spiritual anticipation of the passion, death, and Resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

As we solemnly contemplate Jesus...

I’m Donald Trump,’” to...

Melania Trump has a new look.As the incoming first lady walked into St. John’s, the Episcopal church in Lafayette Square, she cut the figure of a mafia widow or high-ranking member of an obscure religious order, and a bit of “My Fair Lady.” She wore a sharply tailored navy coat, with a soft white silk crepe blouse peeking out from beneath the collar, and a huge navy boater trimmed with a white band. In a rare showing of bipartisanship from the fashion industry, which had very publicly thrown its weight behind Kamala Harris, the ensemble is by American designer Adam...
