- Bret Baier Asks Mike Johnson If There Will Be ‘Punishments’ for Nancy Mace f...
Fox News host Bret Baier asked House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Thursday if there would be “punishments” for Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) after she posted about a classified briefing on Iran. Johnson joined Special Report to discuss the ongoing military operation in Iran and the possibility of putting U.S. troops on the ground to end the almost month-long conflict. The subject– and the Pentagon briefing itself– has been a point of tension within the Republican party, with some calling out the department for its lack of transparency. Mace said on Wednesday that she walked out of a House Armed Services briefing on Iran, posting a series of comments heavily implying that the administration would send troops. “Just walked out of a House Armed Services briefing on Iran. Let me repeat: I will not support troops on the ground in Iran, even more so after this briefing,” she wrote. Mace added in a later post, “The justifications presented to the American public for the war in Iran were not the same military objectives we were briefed on today in the House Armed Services Committee. This gap is deeply troubling. The longer this war continues, the faster it will lose the support of Congress and the American people.” Baier asked Johnson about the congresswoman’s comments, claiming some questioned whether Congress should be briefed on the war at all if “Congress can’t keep a secret.” “Congresswoman Nancy Mace came out of a classified briefing and seemed to reveal some of what was reportedly discussed about possible ground operations in Iran,” said Baier. “There’s people who ask, why should the administration brief Congress when Congress can’t keep a secret? Are there any punishments for Congresswoman Mace in this instance?” Johnson claimed that leaks of classified information were a “problem,” telling Baier that while “there is a breach of trust here,” he was not suggesting the congresswoman leaked classified information. “It is not lawful to leak classified information. I’m not suggesting that’s what Nancy did there, but it is a problem. I mean, we had a big briefing for all House members in the congressional auditorium, and it’s a lower level of classification because some of these things are so sensitive. And there is a breach of trust here,” he said. “And that’s a problem for the institution and something we need to address in the long run because we’ve got to get back to… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - Trump Asks for Whereabouts of Liberal Co-Host During Fox News Interview: ‘Did ...President Donald Trump asked the co-hosts of The Five if the absent Jessica Tarlov had been taken off the show. Trump phoned into the program on Thursday, where he complained about Fox’s polls, the latest of which was released on Wednesday and showed the president with a 59% disapproval rating, his highest ever in the survey. During the interview, Jesse Watters invited Trump to the set at some point in the future when Tarlov, the show’s liberal co-host, is present. “Mr. President, the next time you do this on The Five, can we have you on set?” he asked. “Because we really want you to sit next to Jessica. I think you’d be a good influence on her. Can you do that?” “Well, I think– I watch Jessica, and I’m not a fan,” Trump replied as the co-hosts laughed. And she uses fake numbers. She’ll give, ‘Well, he’s only polling [at] 42%.’ That’s not right. Polling very high, actually. You know, polls are just like– I hate people that use fake polls because polls are just like bad journalists. You know, bad journalists, they write fake stories. Well, fake polls do damage also. But that’s the thing. I’m sure I’d like her. I’m sure she’s a lovely person.” “She’s a lovely person,” Watters replied. “We’re working on her. Don’t worry.” “Tell me, did she not wanna do it, or did you kick her off the show?” the president inquired. “No,” Watters said. “We didn’t kick her off. She had a previous schedule that she couldn’t change.” Last July, Tarlov drew Trump’s ire after she called for gun control. “I can’t stand Jessica Tarlov of THE FIVE. A real loser!!! DJT,” Trump wrote on Truth Social at the time.

- Trump Issues Executive Order Telling DHS to ‘Immediately Pay Our TSA Agents’
AP Photo/Evan Vucci President Donald Trump issued an executive order Thursday evening directing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin to “immediately pay our TSA Agents.” As the standoff between Democrats and Republicans in Congress over funding for DHS has dragged on, TSA agents have been working at the nation’s airports without being paid. Numerous agents who cannot afford to forgo their paychecks have been calling out, leaving travelers mired in hours-long security lines — including an NTSB investigator who was trying to get to the scene of a deadly runway crash at LaGuardia Airport. On Monday, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) confirmed reports that there had been a deal on the table from Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) where the Democrats would agree to end the shutdown by funding everything but ICE, so the TSA agents could get paid, but Trump killed that deal. By Tuesday, however, Kennedy was saying that Trump might actually have changed his mind again, and was possibly now willing to support the deal and bring the shutdown to an end. Two days later, Kennedy floated a new tactic: funding just the TSA. The Louisiana senator initially said he was planning to bring a standalone bill to the floor for a vote and then told reporters he would hold off because he was anticipating the president would issue an executive order with the same goal. That executive order was announced via a post on Trump’s Truth Social account Thursday evening, in which he blamed Democrats for the ongoing shutdown and said he was directing Mullin “to immediately pay our TSA Agents in order to address this Emergency Situation”: The Radical Left Democrats, and their “Leader,” Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, have made it very clear where they stand, and that is, ON THE SIDE OF CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS, AND NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. They are refusing to fund Immigration Enforcement unless the Republicans agree to their Open Border Policies, which will never, ever happen again. They almost destroyed our Country, allowing 25 Million People to enter from Prisons, Mental Institutions, and Insane Asylums, those that are Drug Dealers, and thousands of Murderers, many of whom killed more than one person. Because the Democrats have recklessly created a true National Crisis, I am using my authorities under the Law to protect our Great Country, as I always will do! Therefore, I am going to sign an Order instructing the… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - ‘Every Joke Was About Me’: Trump Claims He ‘Loved’ White House Correspon...President Donald Trump said he “really loved” the White House Correspondents’ Dinner he attended during former President Barack Obama’s presidency. Trump joined Thursday’s edition of Fox’s The Five to discuss the ongoing US military operation in Iran and his recent announcement of a ten-day pause on previously threatened strikes against Iranian energy plants. Later in the segment, host Greg Gutfeld asked the president about the upcoming White House Correspondents’ dinner, an event that Trump has traditionally skipped but will be attending this year. “You know, I haven’t done it because right from the beginning I was treated rather rudely and crudely,” said Trump. “You know, I won the election in 2016. It was one of the greatest elections ever. And you were all witness to it, and I had great — but they were so nasty. The press was so nasty, I just– so I didn’t do it.” The president said that people had claimed he decided to run for president after poor treatment at the dinner under Obama, telling the hosts that this was far from the truth. “And you know, there is this theory I was there while Barack Hussein Obama was speaking, and he was hitting me a little bit. Actually, it was very nice, and I was actually– I loved it. I really loved it,” said Trump. He continued: I was saying to my wife, our first lady, our movie star first lady– you know, I always say, there is only room in a family for one star, this be a problem but she is a movie star, can you believe it? But I was saying to her, I said “You know, I love this, I am having a good time,” because every joke was about me and I sort of liked– I can handle that stuff. They said I was so upset with that evening that I decided that evening to run for president. Well, it wasn’t, but it was at the White House dinner. Had nothing to do with my running for president. I ask you enjoyed it. But I never did it, and I said I’ll do it now. The White House Correspondents’ Association announced last month that mentalist Oz Pearlman will be the headliner for April’s Correspondents’ Dinner, upending the previous tradition of inviting stand-up comedians to host.The post ‘Every Joke Was About Me’: Trump Claims He ‘Loved’ White House Correspondents’ Dinner During Obama Presidency… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
