US President Donald Trump went off Tuesday on the aesthetics of US Navy warships, talking to a crowd of hundreds of generals and admirals about an unspecified stealthy design that he thinks is "ugly." The president has a long history of criticizing the appearance of American warships. He's compared them to rival navies, commented on the designs and technology involved, and also bothered senior officials about things like rust.
In the interview, Pelosi claimed she was quoting the president when she dropped a couple of curse words, though it's not clear what exact quote she is referring to. Pelosi was asked about meetings at the White House on the looming government shutdown this week, and she claimed that Trump has been dismissive of Democrats and their asks. Democrats are pushing for an extension of Affordable Care Act subsidies and a reversal of some Medicaid cuts.
President Donald Trump sparked a wave of condemnation on Tuesday when he said he told Secretary of War Pete Hegseth we should use American cities as training grounds for our military. Trump spoke to hundreds of U.S. generals and admirals at a rare gathering of top brass in Quantico, Virginia, following remarks from Hegseth. During his unwieldy speech, full of political attacks, Trump attacked the left, repeating his claim that ex-President Joe Biden intentionally let in murderers and other criminals.
The clip, styled as a Fox News report fronted by Trump's daughter-in-law Lara Trump, included a bogus announcement from the president promising every American access to the fictitious machines that supposedly cure diseases, reverse injury damage, and even regrow limbs. Kicking off The Late Show on Monday night, Colbert delved into the moment with full revelry. The fantastic but fake medbed tech, the host joked, was the least bizarre part of the entire story.
During Trump's Howdy, Modi speech, he said, "You have never had a better friend as President than President Donald Trump, that I can tell you." There are more than five million people of Indian origin in the U.S., and in three Presidential elections Trump has steadily increased his vote share in that group, from under thirty per cent, in 2016, to nearly forty per cent last year, according to some estimates. (Modi is tremendously popular with the Indian diaspora.)
Here he is, depicted at six months in office, chiseled and brawny, as mighty as the very nation. Here he is as a Star Wars Jedi wielding a patriot-red lightsaber, rescuing our galaxy from the forces of evil. Here he is taking over Gaza, transforming the strip into a luxury resort complete with a golden effigy of himself. You can be anything, perhaps you were told growing up. Doctor. Astronaut. Maybe, one day, the president.
In a post on his Truth Social page, Trump falsely labeled Mamdani a "communist" and predicted that "he is going to have problems with Washington like no Mayor in the history of our once great City." Trump then elaborated on the "problems" Mamdani would face. "Remember, he needs the money from me, as President, in order to fulfill all of his FAKE Communist promises," Trump wrote.
Days after his defiant speech at the United Nations rejecting demands to end the war in Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to confer with his most important supporter. But Monday's meeting with President Donald Trump in Washington comes at a tenuous moment. Israel is increasingly isolated, losing support from many countries that were long its steadfast allies. At home, Netanyahu's governing coalition appears more fragile than ever. And the White House is showing signs of impatience.
Using his personal social network, Trump argued that Monaco's time serving the Obama and Biden administrations - which both investigated the current president's actions - makes her an unsuitable Microsoft employee because the software giant's many US government contracts means she can access "Highly Sensitive Information." "Monaco's having that kind of access is unacceptable," Trump asserted, before concluding "It is my opinion that Microsoft should immediately terminate the employment of Lisa Monaco."
Trump wants to rewrite history so that the next generation may not know that he incited a violent insurrection, refused to peacefully transfer the power of the presidency after losing an election, stole classified documents and showed them to friends and guests at Mar-a-Lago, and that he was a criminal, Cobb said. He's a convicted felon. All, anybody involved in those events that offended him, they're in real danger.
I have been asked by many people about the life and times of Amelia Earhart, such an interesting story, and would I consider declassifying and releasing everything about her, in particular, her last, fatal flight! She was an Aviation Pioneer, the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean, and achieved many other Aviation firsts. She disappeared in the South Pacific while trying to become the first woman to fly around the World.
The CSPAN footage, unearthed by the Daily Beast, shows the first couple emerging from the presidential helicopter on the South Lawn of the White House, with Trump's right hand clutching his wife's left. But in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, the first lady can be seen pulling her left hand away and looking away from her husband as she tries to walk on her own, as the Daily Beast said.
On Wednesday, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) sent a letter to Dufour, questioning whether the company invited Trump to the men's finals match in early September as a play to wiggle out of the 39% tariff. She went on to write that the move raises questions about whether you are cultivating a relationship with President Trump in attempts to secure lucrative tariff exemptions for Rolex products.
NBC put out an APB for all tapes. When this came out, it was because a contestant in a Miss Universe pageant had said, Donald Trump has said terrible things about me. And he said, I never talk like that at all. And then NBC sent out to all their divisions, look for your tapes. Now the ones they wanted belonged to Mark Burnett and are in a vault somewhere in Idaho.
Even though we are still being preempted in 60 American cities, on Tuesday we had our second-highest-rated show in almost 23 years on the air. Our monologue from Tuesday night has over 21 million views just on YouTube alone. And I wanna say, we couldn't have done it without you, Mr. President. Thank you very much.
