Trump’s Address to Congress

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 3/4/2025 11:38:31 PM

Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) delivers the Democrat response to President Donald Trump’s address to Congress on Tuesday, March 4. President Trump addressed multiple common sense issues that he has tackled in his return to the White House by executive order that Democrats have opposed. Slotkin, who narrowly won her Senate seat in 2024, was selected to deliver a refutation of Trump’s overwhelmingly popular policies. Trump has called for a “Golden Age of America” in his return to office, a seemingly self-defeating position for Democrats to oppose.

I watched her speech and thought she did pretty well, if you ignore the policies she advocated. She was younger and better spoken than the normal Democrats, like geriatric Pelosi and Word Salad Kamala. But all her positions are based on false premises. And if course, it sounded like she could support Crooks and Routh style activists.

Look up her bio. She is another Dem childless cat lady who really has no personal stake in the future of the country.

Democrats suck. There's no other way to put it. Choosing this bimbo from Michigan to do a rebuttal, one of the states that will be saved from bankruptcy by Donald Trump's rescue of the auto industry is the ultimate insult. GTH

she 'narrowly won'? Trump carried Michigan and he supported her rival for the Senate seat, Mike Rogers. It's inconceivable that she beat Rogers.... ...unless you remember the phony vote counts in Michigan, supported by Wretchen Gritmer, D, the governor from back in 2020. There should be one more Republican Senator in office.

She’s CIA and the lies just slipped off her lips like she was taught at CIA school. I was totally disgusted and yes, she definitely stole the seat. I wish they could go after that fraud and unseat her.

President Trump on Tuesday evening honored DJ Daniel for his bravery as he fights brain cancer. Trump made DJ Daniel an honorary member of the US Secret Service on Tuesday evening.

John Podesta, Biden’s top climate czar, was in charge of doling out $375 billion in climate change spending, which had been sent to many charities founded only months ago. The New York Post wrote: The Biden administration funneled at least $20 billion dollars into environmental groups, most of which had only recently been founded, The Post has discovered. In one case, former Vice President Kamala Harris handed over a check for nearly $7 billion to Bethesda, Maryland, based group Climate United Fund, which does not appear in the IRS’s charities database, and has no federal filings. in 2024, EPA adviser Brent Efron was caught on video

So much for Democrat women being more compassionate than the rest of us. Uh uh. They have hearts of stone. Take cute DJ Daniel, the pint-sized 13-year-old boy with brain cancer who dreams of being a cop. There shouldn’t have been a dry eye in the House when President Donald Trump announced in the middle of his speech to Congress Tuesday night that he was making little DJ an honorary Secret Service agent. But one side of the chamber was bone dry, their desiccated hearts a perfect reflection of Democrats’ barren ideas for revival.

ABC News legal analyst Sunny Hostin said Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that all the Democratic lawmakers should have walked out during President Donald Trump’s speech to a joint session of Congress. Hostin said, “You know, while I didn’t watch it, I was looking for signs of an opposition party, which is what the Democratic Party must be at this point. Not a resistance, because resistance is passive. Opposition is active.

A posthumous presidential pardon for the late baseball legend Pete Rose "would mean the world" to the family, says his son Tyler Rose. President Trump stated last week that Major League Baseball should never have banned Rose, and the Hall of Fame should have inducted him during his lifetime. He also promised to posthumously pardon Rose, since he was permanently banned from the league after an investigation found that he had bet on games involving the Cincinnati Reds when he was a player and a manager.

By March 2025, the United States has poured over $175 billion into Ukraine’s war chest—a staggering sum that could have rebuilt every crumbling bridge in the Rust Belt, funded a decade of veteran care, or slashed the tax burden on families buckling under inflation’s weight. Yet here we stand, bankrolling a foreign conflict while our own house frays at the seams. It’s time to say it loud and clear: America before Ukraine. This isn’t isolationism—it’s stewardship. It’s not callousness—it’s clarity. It’s a conservative creed for a nation at a crossroads, and it demands we rethink our priorities with both heart and head.

Washington—Billionaire Elon Musk arrived on Capitol Hill Tuesday and learned about something new — budget rescissions, an obscure legislative tool that could bring legal heft to his federal budget slashing effort and enshrine the cuts into law. Musk joined a lunch meeting with Republican senators just hours after the Supreme Court issued a setback to the Trump administration’s efforts to freeze some $2 billion in foreign aid funds as part of its sweeping shutdown of the U.S. Agency for International Development. As he opened the private session, Musk led with a message urging Congress to act. Over plates of fried catfish, senators explained how the White House could put the billions

MGA Entertainment, which makes Bratz and LOL Surprise dolls, also owns the 56-year-old Little Tikes brand, which manufactures larger, indoor and outdoor toys at a factory in Hudson, Ohio.

Some days, you sit back and scratch your head. Things can get so confusing, and it may seem as though the world around you doesn't make sense, and maybe it never did. That is what I think of when I see my brand-new Senator Elissa Slotkin, who replaced the old senator, Debbie Stabenow; she was a decrepit, do-nothing senator for almost 30 years. Why does Michigan suck at electing senators? That is probably a topic for another time. So while I could not stay up for the entire joint session of the Congress speech by the 47th president of the United States (because I'm old), I did catch my junior senator

During Donald Trump's big speech on Tuesday night, the Democrats proved more than ever that they hate this country and do not wish to see it succeed. They refused to clap for common sense things like lowering taxes and removing dangerous criminals from the streets. Even worse, they failed to applaud for everyone from the mothers of young girls who were brutally murdered to foster dads and foster children. But one of the most disgusting moments of the evening came when they refused to acknowledge a young boy with brain cancer for something that was about as far from partisan as you can get.

When asked how Democrats should react to Trump’s upcoming speech, Carville said, “This man is actively trying to destroy the United States, and I think we ought to treat this moment with real gravitas. I think we’ve got a very good selection in Senator Slotkin to deliver the rebuttal. But my advice is either don’t go or go and sit on your hands and look grim, because the country is in a grim position right now. I hope the Democrats act like that.”

The SSA stated that it froze hiring and “drastically” cut back on overtime, saving about $550 million. The government agency that administers the Social Security program said it cut back $150 million from the information technology systems (ITS) budget by canceling “non-essential contracts and identifying reductions in other ITS contracts.” Acting SSA Commissioner Lee Dudek said Monday evening the agency has “operated on autopilot” for far too long.

While Democrat leadership has suggested that members bring guests who have been affected by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to the speech, some of the party’s more aggressive anti-Trump lawmakers are thinking of ways to go above and beyond to demonstrate their distaste for the president, according to Axios.
