- ‘It’s Recession Day’: Hakeem Jeffries Hammers Donald Trump’s ‘Liberation Day,’ Warns Eco...
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) dubbed Wednesday “Recession Day” ahead of President Donald Trump’s scheduled announcement regarding tariffs. Trump had taken to calling April 2 “Liberation Day,” when he was set to impose a number of tariffs against a variety of countries. While the president repeatedly insisted that the heavy tariffs would result in lower costs for American consumers, economic experts have argued that it will do the exact opposite. Critics of Trump — like Jeffries — even predicted that his economic plan would result in another recession. During a speech Wednesday afternoon, Jeffries explained why he felt the day would be anything but a “liberation” when he said: We were told that grocery costs were going to go down on day one of the Trump presidency. Costs aren’t going down in America — they’re going up. And the Trump tariffs are going to make things more… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.8 hours ago - Hunter Biden Gives Up His D.C. Law License Over ConvictionsHunter Biden willfully gave up his license to practice law in Washington, D.C., avoiding disbarment proceedings based on his prior criminal convictions. The D.C. Bar’s Board on Professional Responsibility revealed this week that the son of former President Joe Biden dropped his D.C. law license. The board recommended Biden’s “consent to disbarment” be accepted. Had Biden not given up his law license, he could have faced disbarment anyway over his prior gun and taxes convictions. The former president’s son was found guilty in June on gun charges, and he pleaded guilty in September. Biden was admitted into the Washington, D.C. bar in 2007. His license had been under a temporary suspension since last year following him being found guilty on his gun charges, which included making a false statement on a gun purchase application, making a false statement related to information required to be kept by a federally… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.8 hours ago
- Fox News Anchor Laughs As He Reminds GOP Rep ‘Elon Musk Spent $25M Of His Own Money — And Lostâ€...Fox News anchor John Roberts let out a guffaw when he reminded Rep. Lisa McLain (R-MI) that Elon Musk spent “$25 million of his own money” to lose a key judicial race. Judge Susan Crawford beat Judge Brad Schimel by a wide margin in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race on Tuesday night, despite Elon Musk’s $19-million-plus cash dump and President Donald Trump’s vehement support. Democrats also cut the Trump margin in half in a pair of special elections they lost in Florida, spending $20 million in the process. On Wednesday afternoon’s edition of Fox News Channel’s America Reports, Rep. McLain taunted Democrats fr spending so much only to lose, which prompted the rejoinder from Roberts: JOHN ROBERTS: I want to ask you, Congresswoman, as the House GOP chair, about the results of these elections yesterday. You’ve extended, it appears, the margins in the House. It’ll be 220 to 213 when these new members get sworn in. The margins,… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.9 hours ago
- Senate Hearing Goes Off The Rails As Amy Klobuchar Bites Back At Ted Cruz’s Jabs: ‘Taking More T...A Senate hearing on Wednesday stalled out for a moment as Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) clashed over the legality of nationwide injunctions filed by judges against President Donald Trump and his agenda. At a Senate hearing focused on “exploring legislative solutions to the bipartisan problem of universal injunctions,” multiple colleagues tried coming in between Cruz and Klobuchar. Cruz claimed at Wednesday’s hearing that injunctions imposed on pieces of Trump’s agenda, limiting executive action based on current law, are an “abuse of power” and politically motivated. Klobuchar defended actions taken by judges, accusing the president of violating the Constitution. “The only reason there’s all of these injunctions, Sen. Cruz,” Klobuchar said during her committee time, following Cruz, “is because he’s violating the Constitution. Why would Trump appoint judges who —” “Why don’t you file them in red districts?” Cruz asked. “Sen. Cruz,” Sen. Ashley Moody… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.10 hours ago
- Biden Super-Loyalist Ron Klain Stabs Him in the Back: Couldn’t Even ‘Grasp’ Trump’s Argument...
AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta Ron Klain, the Democratic political operative who served as President Joe Biden’s chief of staff during the first half of his term in the Oval Office, went on the record to stab his old boss in the back in a new book. Klain told Craig Whipple, the author of the forthcoming Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History that he was unsettled by Biden’s condition before, during, and after his disastrous debate with Donald Trump last summer. From The Guardian‘s write-up of Klain’s role in Uncharted: According to Klain, it turned out that Biden “didn’t know what Trump had been saying and couldn’t grasp what the back and forth was”; left preparation and fell asleep by the pool; obsessed about foreign leaders, saying “these guys say I’m doing a great job as president so I must be a great president”; “didn’t… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.10 hours ago - ‘Wait’: Trump Raises Eyebrows With Odd Claim He Wants to Slap Tariffs on Canadian Fentanyl
GDA via AP Images President Donald Trump caused a great deal of confusion online Wednesday when he appeared to argue he intends to impose tariffs on fentanyl crossing the U.S.-Canada border. As Trump has continually threatened the country and key U.S. trading partner with heavy tariffs, one of his most frequent criticisms has centered on the smuggling of fentanyl into the country. The president has even demanded that Canada improve its border security to limit the amount of drugs coming into the U.S. Although Trump has been especially hard on Canada, data suggest that his frustrations may be misguided. According to a Wednesday report from The Globe and Mail, “In fiscal [year] 2024, the data show that 99.87 per cent of the fentanyl they recovered was linked to either Mexico or the United States, or had unknown origins. Fentanyl identified as coming from Canada amounted to 0.74 pounds – or… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.10 hours ago
