Tucker Qatarlson is currently at the White House where he is attending President Trump’s meeting with oil executives to discuss how to acquire the largest oil reserves in the world in Venezuela. Why is Tucker Carlson @TuckerCarlson attending when he has spent the last week completely trashing President Trump’s and @SecWar @SecRubio ’s military operation in Venezuela, and falsely claimed that President Trump is about to get us into a New World War and that he only captured Maduro so Trump could spread homosexuality in Venezuela? This is outrageous. Tucker Carlson is a virulent Jew hater and Islamic mouthpiece and...

Always on the lookout for new ways to attack President Trump, Morning Joe went musical today. The show opened Thursday's episode with Willie Nelson's "Always On My Mind" playing in the background, mocking Trump's frequent mentions of his predecessor in his address to the country last night, and in other instances. Scarborough announced with delight: "Joe Biden. Very much living rent-free in Donald Trump's mind." Mock away, Morning Joe. But in contrast with Biden, at least Trump has a mind that works. Speaking of which, where was Scarborough's mind when he angrily bellowed, just three months before Biden's infamous debate...

President Trump unleashed a new addition to the Presidential Walk of Fame in the White House Rose Garden, where portraits of all 47 US Presidents are displayed.Trump famously replaced the picture of Joe Biden with an autopen, taking a jab at the 46th President for not actually running the White House but ceding his power to those around him, who took illegal executive actions with the Biden signature affixed by a robotic signature machine.Reporters in the White House noticed this morning newly placed plaques under the photographs, which gave a Trump White House-crafted biography of the President.Biden and Obama, both...

Washington — President Trump said he will deliver a prime-time address to the nation live from the White House on Wednesday night. The president did not say what the topic of his address will be.

EST.," he wrote on Truth Social Tuesday afternoon. "I look forward to 'seeing' you then. It has been a great year for our Country, and THE BEST IS YET...

President Donald Trump was sued on Friday by preservationists asking a federal court to halt his White House ballroom project until it goes through multiple independent reviews and wins approval from Congress. The National Trust for Historic Preservation is asking the U.S. District Court to block Trump's White House ballroom project, which already has involved razing the East Wing, until it goes through comprehensive design reviews, environmental assessments, public comments and congressional debate and ratification.

Only one American woman in politics, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, made Forbes’s 2025 list of most powerful women. Wiles, the White House’s first female chief of staff, is ranked 66th on the Forbes list, behind figures like pop star Taylor Swift, television host Oprah Winfrey and General Motors CEO Mary Barra. But the fact that Wiles, a veteran political consultant who also served as Trump’s campaign co-chair in 2024, is the only one on the list who works in American politics highlights the low number of women in powerful positions within the federal government. Other women in...

The White House defended its immigration policy after Sabrina Carpenter slammed the White House for using her song “Juno” in a video posted to social media on Tuesday. “Here’s a Short n’ Sweet message for Sabrina Carpenter: we won’t apologize for deporting dangerous criminal illegal murderers, rapists, and pedophiles from our country. Anyone who would defend these sick monsters must be stupid, or is it slow?” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told Newsweek. The statement referred to the title of her 2024 album and lyrics to “Manchild.” (snip) The video posted by the White House overlayed the song “Juno” to...
