Democrats refused to clap for nearly every moment of President Donald Trump’s joint address Tuesday night. That included when he honored former volleyball player Payton McNabb, who suffered traumatic physical and mental injuries when she was injured by a transgender opponent in 2022.

Trump concluded the segment by reiterating his promise to cut federal funding to any U.S. school that allows trans athletes to compete against girls. It prompted a round…
CNN — US President Donald Trump has gone all in with his effort to strongarm Kyiv into peace negotiations with Russia, suspending US military aid to Ukraine with immediate effect. The move has sent shockwaves through the Western world and left Ukraine and its allies scrambling.

Zelensky indicated on Tuesday that he was willing to go that way,…
CNN — President Donald Trump’s first address to Congress since returning to power was both a victory lap following a consequential first 43 days in office and an attempt to justify what he’s done to an American public that may still be digesting his rapid-pace changes.

His task Tuesday was to say why. He did that – to an extent. But the president also used his speech to relentlessly attack his…

Musk does not have “the high burden required for a preliminary injunction” to block the conversion of OpenAI, said U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers in Oakland, California. But Rogers wrote in the order that she wanted to resolve the lawsuit quickly given “the public interest at stake and potential for harm if a conversion contrary…
CNN — Last fall, in the waning weeks of the presidential campaign, Donald Trump visited Sprankle’s Neighborhood Market, a family-owned grocery store in rural Kittanning, Pennsylvania.

January inflation data released on Friday showed progress in tamping down overall price growth. Now, new tariffs on the United States’ top three trading partners threaten to kick inflation back up again. This week, the Trump administration levied 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico…
