donald trump yesterday in one of several truth social posts said we should spend less time worrying about putin and more time worrying about migrant rape gangs and people from mental institutions entering our country so we don't end up like europe. the president will look for more of his comments on social media. we will talk more about that address to congress. a preview of that coming up in about one hour here on "washington journal." for the first hour, we are what -- asking you what is america's role in the world today.

in the last few minutes there's been a statement from us president donald trump on his truth social mediasaying, this is the restatement that could have been made by zelensky... he is referring to a comment by a lot of your zelensky saying the end of the war with russia is very, very far away —— volodymyr zelensky. the post continues... donald trump then goes on, probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of the show of strength against russia. what are they thinking? let's go to nomia iqbal. russia. what are they thinking? let's go to nomia iqbal happened the weekend over what happened on in the on friday, rin'the gwal foice, as mentioned there, is reaction to a that is—a— reactientea comment president zelensky that is—a— reactiontoa comment president zelensky is that president zelensky is said to have in ukraine when he to have made in ukraine when he was in london over the weekend —— and ukrainian. it feeds into something of national security �* michael ” ”h�*michaeliwaltzr adviser michael waltz claimed over the that this over the weekend, that this guy does not peace, h

he said, i will tell it like it is and part of the message on his truth social platform.dministration officials have told our team that the president worked on the speech over the weekend. he's planning to highlight what he sees as successes in his early in the early part of his second term here. many of his big moves are things that we, of course, have been able to see ourselves. we'll likely hear him talk about his immigration efforts to stop illegal border crossings, to ramp up deportations. we can expect to hear about how, how and why he's erased diversity and equity programs and personnel, for that matter, from the federal government, those tariffs against mexico and canada, those are set to go into effect overnight tonight. so we'll be listening to see what he has to say about that. and of course, as we've been talking about the big topic here, likely to be elon musk and how he has really rocked the federal government with these massive spending cuts. and with all the firings that we are continuing to see, we also understand from a senior white house official that t

trump said this was come on truth social, the worst president present -- the worst time president zelenskyyde. but he said a few things in the past few minutes. he crucially said he hasn't talked about halting military aid yet to ukraine, and in praise for europe, he said europe has acted very well, they're going to make deals with everyone including europe and european nations, they've acted very well, they are very good people, said mr. trump. he said he has spoken to four prime ministers and five presidents from europe in recent days, but something we've heard from him frequently, he wants to end the war in ukraine fast. this is a deal that would never have happened, referring to the lighter american involvement in ukraine and this -- said i want to see an end to the war fast, said president trump. he also addressed taiwan, trade, tariffs, and lots of other things in the press conference we just hired and we are going to bring all those details on bbc news. let's bring in our north american correspondent he was also watching and listening. it was a wide-ranging press conference. take us

start from set on his truth social platform, president zelenskyy -- president trump said on his truthrm, president zelenskyy is not ready for peace because our involvement gives a big advantage in negotiations. i don't want to vanish, i want peace. he disrespected the united states of america and its cherished oval office. he can come back when ready for peace. president zelenskyy expressed gratitude to the american people after his class with president trump, writing on x, thank you america, thank you for your support, thank you for this visit. thank you potus, congress, and the american people. ukraine needs just and lasting peace, and we are working exactly for that. with me to discuss this is our state department correspondent, tom bateman. tom, you have covered many visits of world leaders to the oval office. have you ever seen anything play out quite like today? >> absolutely nothing. it was unprecedented. i think it shows that what was already a very vulnerable and precarious position for volodymyr zelenskyy has deteriorated now into an unprecedented golf, a rift between his co

president trump this morning up in our truth social. here is jamie in garden city, maryland. i have so many thoughts. i watched huckle -- tucker carlson, he interviewed someone who wanted to run for president in ukraine. this is nothing more than the military industrial complex making a lot of money from the lobbyists to fund a perpetual war and longer money as people die. president trump is trying to create peace. that's what leaders do. i watched 60 minutes last night. i can't afford groceries. i will not spend $1 billion a month for ukraine's pension. there is no end to the war. to create peace would allow president trump's plan to come in and secure that area over there. get a little policing going. we will not do this nato nonsense military-industrial complex paid for by our tax dollars. host: who does the policing that you say? who does that? caller: the plan to mind minerals in ukraine would put some american presence there to maintain the disagreement. president trump and president putin or president zelenskyy, we could build something good here, make something good h

he appears to be just livid in this long post on truth social and what she does issue this ultimatum, essentially commanding him off to quote, release all of the hostages now or there will be hell to pay. and i'll just skip through to some of the parts. he says that sending israel everything it needs to finish the job is what the us will do. and that not a single home us will be safe. quote, if you don't do as i say, and release the hostages of the hostages, saying this is your last warning, then he tells the leaders of hamas that it is time to leave gaza. and then he talks to the people of gaza and it appears to insinuate that they are also holding the captive saying a beautiful future awaits. but not if you hold hostages, if you do, you're dead. those are the words of the american president. so certainly very startling. words and this follows after trump met in the white house with age released hostages at captives. and they urged him, they urged trump to continue working to release the remaining captives, which include a 21 year old as rarely american who was serving in the is real

>> the president put that in his truth social post earlier today. he feels strongly that it would be very beneficial for the canadian people to be the 51st state and wouldn't be paying these tariffs if they were part of our country. >> this is an issue that so many voters decided to cast their ballots when they voted for president trump. he has started to have that realistic conversation with the american people. can you be real with the americans as all these factors are things going to be worse before they get better? >> i have been been asked three different times and answer it again in transparency to the american people because this is an important issue and this president understands that it is and in his joint address to congress last night he addressed this issue with a realistic and honest approach and talked what this administration is doing to unleash american energy and make american affordable and remind the american people that the first term of this president speaks volumes. he can fix our broken economy. and it's very, very broken fr

garrett, there is a new truth social tweet, donald trump again saying that he doesn't believe vladimir zelensky. volodymyr zelensky is ready for peace. >> yeah, and he essentially hangs that on comments from zelensky over the weekend, in which zelensky said that he believes the end of the war is very, very far away. here we hear the president say that he thinks this is the worst statement that zelensky could have made, and that america is not going to put up for it for much longer. there has been no resumption, no action that we can find here at the white house of any kind of talks between the us and ukraine over the weekend since that meltdown here at the oval office on friday and this morning, the national security adviser said there are essentially three things that need to happen for those talks to resume. volodymyr zelensky needs to show gratitude to the united states, something zelensky has been endeavoring to do on social media and in appearances since. he needs to indicate a willingness to sign that minerals deal that was on the table on friday. zelensky has said he would do so

stuart: the president on truth social says get ready to sell a lot more agricultural product inside thedo it? you sell a lot more food here. >> we definitely need our international partners, soybeans, mexico purchases a lot of corn in the united states. these are very big markets for three major commodities in the united states. those are the major commodities and those are the three things we do better than anybody in the world, corn, wheat, and soybeans, strong markets, further commodity. last year i sold my soybean crop in this country for $9 a bushel and to hear that markets are down, raises a lot of uncertainty. we are going to be watching the president's speech tonight closely. farmers are the backbone of this country. stuart: farmers are going to start receiving a portion of $30 billion in assistance to help make up for last year's losses. to get a piece of $30 billion. are you happy with that? >> the piece that passed the latter part of last year, $10 billion for farmers in those major, oddities. cotton is participating. farmers need those moneys now, the agriculture secretary,

trump posting on truth social, release all the hostages now and immediately return all the dead bodies of the people you murdered or it is over for you. i'm sending israel everything it needs to finish the job. trump met with eight hostages yesterday who told the president they did not think they would be free without his return to the white house . >> president trump: this was hell? >> worst thing anybody could go through. >> i was moved 33 times, no air to breathe, barely food, hardly any water, i'm grateful and thankful to be here because of president trump. >> we are here because of you. >> because of you. >> lucas: trump administration has been holding direct talks with hamas in an attempt to free the remaining hostages. >> todd: thank you. pick up with new jersey congressman jeff van drew. talks are unprecedented. u.s. never engaged directly with imha. will it work? >> i think there is a real opportunity here and i think it will work. peace through strength, war through weakness, four years of weakness and now being strong. it is president made it clear and sense of majority of c

the president posting this on truth social. he said tomorrow night will be big. i will tell it like it is. he promised that he's likely to include some pretty straight talk on ukraine which as you point out has benefited from hundreds of billions of dollars in aid during its war, a financial resource that's been cut off at least until ukraine comes back to the negotiating table ready to talk about a peace deal or at least a cease-fire. several different lawmakers say they plan to bring federal workers impacted by the doge layoffs and... we're talking about 100,000 people already cut during the first 6 weeks in office. as for the democratic response, that is traditional and that will be delivered we have told by... >> trace: kevin thank you. let's bring in pumice corvette dylan and... thank you both for coming on. i want to put these out, we talked about our sneak peek, kevin laid it out of what the president wants to touch on. accomplishment from trump's second term thus far at home and abroad, with the trump administration has done for the economy, the president

. >> i want to put up truth social earlier today, president trump released all the hostages now not later, immediately return all the dead bodies of the people you murdered or it is over for you. only sick and twisted people keep bodies and you are sick and twisted. i'm sending israel everything it needs to finish the job. not a single hamas member will be safe. if you don't do as i say i have just met with your former hostages. i ran into them in d.c. as well, their stories are harrowing. whose lives you have destroyed. this is your last warning. for the leadership now is time to leave gaza while you still have a chance. also the people of gaza a beautiful future awaits but not if you hold hostages. if you do you are dead. make a smart decision. released the hostages now are there will be hell to pay later. i guess that's pretty clear and i think both of us know president trump well enough he means it. what's going to happen? >> hopefully they are going to do exactly what he said. you know how long we've been waiting, for a long time in this country... people don't realize the president

after that meeting, he posted that message on truth social telling hamas release the hostages now or it's over for you, clearly he took what they said to him to heart. final thoughts? >> i think that this president is doing an incredible job. president trump, before even being sworn, in being able to strike a deal for cease-fire in the middle east. i know there are white house officials working sleeplessly to make sure this happens. make sure the hostages return home. i have been in the room as president trump has negotiated. i have seen him flex those muscles. it is powerful to see. and i am just so proud to have him at the helm. >> busy day yesterday and even more today. danielle alvarez, thank you for joining us. "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ attention staff and crew. attend your cameras. please get close we are about to start a 3 hour extravaganza. >> ainsley: the show can go on. brian kilmeade is back. >> brian: absolutely. i took a train when i thought i was going to take a plane. >> ainsley: first time -- the first thing you ever said to me you missed me come into my off

that's why the president puts out that truth social post. >> jacqui: not that we're aware of., a lot of this has been happening behind closed doors. we got that video of the president with the hostages from the white house after it happened. he didn't have any public events on his schedule today. obviously he is still doing things even though we are not aware of it. it's entirely possible that we get an alert later on of something like that. not that we are aware of as of right now. >> brian: i think the other thing is the amazing head snapping change from ridiculing netanyahu for going into hard or aid going in too slow to if you don't give up the hostages i'm going to give the idf things necessary to essentially eliminate planet. you can't have more two different policies. >> no, such a difference. the only thing we are miss something a timeline right now on whether you know they have got a deadline to act on this or face those consequences. i think a lot what the president does that ambiguity is part of the strategy. and so i would imagine that that's part of what is being

in a post on truth social this morning, the president wrote all federal funding will stop for any college, school or university that allows illegal protest. he says agitators will be imprisoned or deported, and american students will be permanently expelled or arrested. the first amendment protects free speech. berkeley is the home of the free speech movement, and one of the things that's so troubling, what president trump has done, is it threatens to cut off money for speech that's peaceful protest and is protected by the first amendment. the dean of uc beeley school of law says the president doesn't have the legal power to put conditions on federal grants. only congress does. he says students should not be worried. i am confident that the university will stand for the first amendment and protect freedom of speech. what president trump is doing is trying to scare people and intimidate them. and that's why it's so important that people know that this executive oer exceeds the president's powers, and it would violate the first amendment. honestly. really scared. i mean, i wouldn't be at be

i want to remind people why trump says he is opposing these tariffs, he posted on truth social, drugs pouring into our country from mexico and canada at very high and unacceptable levels. until it stops or is seriously limited, the proposed tariffs, scheduled to go into effect on march 4th, will indeed go into effect. what do you say to that? david: i think what we say is we have had a wonderful four days here in washington, d.c., meeting with our counterparts, both folks in the senate, the house. i brought down the head of our canada border services agency, brought down the head of our rcmp, brought down our new fentanyl czar to meet with executives and folks in the white house, for example. so i think what we've been able to show this week is enormous progress on that border. and it's important for us to remember that a border is a two way street. we've made progress in terms of southern flowing problems, and we're making progress with the united states on northern flowing problems. john: what is their response? david: i think we are all encouraged because we are remembering the ext

hace solo un ratito tenemos un truth social de trump diciendo que estados unidos no va a tolerar mÁsque cree que esta guerra no se va a acabar pronto. y donald trump claramente quiere terminarla lo antes posible. todavÍa son los efectos de esta pelea del viernes pasado en la casa blanca, que terminÓ de una manera muy difÍcil de ver. una una catÁstrofe diplomÁtica. asÍ lo estÁn llamando los expertos, pero zelenski. de todas maneras, ha dicho, como ustedes bien decÍan en el inicio, que estÁ listo a llegar al acuerdo de tierras de tierras raras o de minerales crÍticos con los estados unidos. sin embargo, el gobierno de los estados unidos sigue insistiendo que la actitud de zelenski. siguen diciendo que la manera en que Él se comportÓ en la casa blanca no estuvo a la altura. vamos a ver lo que estÁ afirmando el secretario de estado, marco rubio. >> found every opportunity to try to ukraine. explain on every issue. and all we're trying to do here is figure out whether a piece is possible. >> sin embargo, zelenski. no estÁ del todo. solo hay demÓcratas que lo estÁn apoyando. dicen que fue

leavitt: the president put that in his truth social post earlier today. he feels strongly it would be very beneficial for the canadian people to be the 51st state of the united states. they would have much lower taxes if they were part of our great country. >> you and i traveled country during the campaign this is an issue so many voters decided to cast their ballots on and they voted for president trump. he has started to have that realistic conversation with the american people, that disturbance comment last night. i am curious if you can be real with americans right now as all these factors are playing out. are things going to get worse before they get better? ms. leavitt: yes. [indiscernible] the president talked about what this administration is doing to unleash american energy and make america affordable and this administration is committed to doing it. i would remind the american public that the first-term record of this president speaks volumes. that is why they reelected him, because they know he can fix our broken economy and it is very broken f

trump is back at it, taking to truth social to threaten the people of gaza with death if they do not quote, make the smart decision and comply with his demands to immediately release the remaining hostages. this comes as the white house attempts its first bid at diplomacy with hamas this. is a break with long-standing precedent in washington which designated hamas a terrorist group in 1997. five american hostages are still in hamas captivity. it's interesting to note that russian president vladimir putin brokered his own release for hostages in 2023. tensions between hamas and israel remains high, and the future of the cease-fire remains unresolved. essentially, the white house is pushing an entirely different plan, different from the one hamas signed up to. steve witkoff has proposed that they release half of the remaining hostages now and the rest contingent on idf withdrawal from gaza. the original plan would have seen a staggered release of hostages leading to the permanent cease-fire and withdrawal. there are concerns now that the efforts may break down entirely, and we will see

il le dit au congrès, mais aussi par un canal apprécié de son auditoire, truth social, sa plateformeourra peut-être pas tenir comme ça pendant des mois. pour l'instant, il joue sur les temps court et moyen. il ne s'en sort pas si mal, au détriment peut-être des américains, à moyen terme, mais à court terme, c'est au détriment de ses partenaires commerciaux stratégiques, comme les canadiens et les européens. - elisabeth allain: on va en parler. trump a admis que ça allait bouger pour les américains, mais que ça allait aller. il veut atteindre un budget à l'équilibre. sur les droits de douane, le canal du panama... on voit qu'il met en oeuvre une politique du bâton. au-delà de la question économique, de la question de l'ukraine avec les européens et des droits de douane, l'allemagne s'inquiète, mais aussi les etats autour... ca a l'air de fonctionner. on a appris que les chinois avaient cédé la société qui contrôlait le passage du canal de panama à un américain. ca semble fonctionner. - maud quessard: c'est un consortium américain. c'est la stratégie de la pression maximale et de comme

president trump in a truth social post, talked about this, saying that u.s. farmers should get ready to produce more because he's going to hit all of our foreign imports of food with reciprocal tariffs starting on april 2nd. the problem with that, jake, is we do rely on a lot of the world for things like fruits and vegetables, wine, cheese. but the thing to look at here is what do those countries then do to us? they reciprocate with tariffs on u.s. farmers, something we saw in 2019, 2018, 2019 during the first trade war. the american farm bureau says specifically that this hurts farmers directly. and this has this was so bad in 2018 that the government created a bailout program, a market facilitation program, just to help u.s. farmers. because of these reciprocal tariffs from other countries on our u.s. farmers. >> jake vanessa yurkevich, thank you so much. good to see you to our world lead. now is the path to an actual lasting peace between ukraine and russia getting longer and more winding with no deal after friday's now infamous oval office rumble involvin

what did his incoming boss have to say about that on truth social? president trump prepares to address congress tonight. what can we expect from the first major speech of his second term? i'll ask trump adviser jason miller about it, and the group chat is back as jay-z is filing a lawsuit of his own. we're going to talk all about it. >> when it comes to rooting out corruption. >> do the fbi's ends justify the means? >> it was humiliating. it's an embarrassment for the country. >> united states of scandal with jake tapper sunday at nine on cnn. >> top line this is a quality comprehensive exam. come again? you asked me to top line it for you. >> okay. bottom line. >> well, the bottom line is this is an amazing value. what? get two pairs of progressives and an eye exam starting at just 159 .95 at america's best. >> you founded your. >> kayak company because you love the ocean, not spreadsheets you need to hire. >> i need indeed. >> indeed you do. >> when you sponsor a job on. indeed, candidates can find it easier so you can hire easier. visit indeed.com

yesterday, president trump put a post up on truth social dated february 27, which on january 27 would have made sense. it reads as though he forgot it was february 27. the other option is worse because the other option is he just pulled a 10% china tariff out of nowhere that no one had been discussing, that there was no discussion of potential chinese retaliation, that no one is ready for. if you can do that -- by the way, i'm in favor of the 10% tariff. it's not the outcome, it's the process. there wasn't one. he either forgot he already put a 10% tariff on or randomly decided we should have another 10% tariff. if you don't think that's compelling, wait until april 2 when we are supposed to have the rollout of u.s. trade policy based on reciprocity across the world. there is no way the u.s. government can do that. you can't do that for tariffs. what will happen is they will just make something up and something might end up being the magic number for reciprocity is 25% for everything because that seems to be the u.s. tendency. or we could get something sensible, like we're just going

let trump tweet what he's going to say or let trump post on truth social.wants for mexico. >> and lance, do you think that the discussion of, for example, tariffs that the president has repeatedly said is one of the finest words he knows? is this something that politically is to the president's advantage when we see that tariffs include, you know, price of aguacate is going up from $2 to 250 and $3. is this something that you think in the long run helps the president? >> well, i think i think look, again, if you're getting the fentanyl problem under control, if you're getting the southern border under control, i think those are very big priorities for the american public. i'd also point you to an interesting story in the wall street journal this morning talking about china. they're actually fearing kind of how this whole tariff thing is going to play out, because getting what america is starting to get what it wants out of places like mexico and other countries, they're worried that they're going to be left out in the cold at some point because of the power

this time he took to truth social to threaten the people of gaza with death if they don't make the, quote, smart decision and comply with his demands to release the remaining hostages. this comes as the white house completes its first ever diplomacy with hamas. they designated hamas a terror group in 1997. five american hostages are still in hamas captivity, and the white house is focussed on securing their release specifically. president putin brokered his own deal with hamas for the release of russian hostages in 2023. tensions remain high and the future of the cease-fire remains unresolved. essentially, israel and the trump white house are pushing an entirely new cease-fire plan, and it differs from the plan that hamas initially signed up for. steve witkoff proposes that they release half of the remaining hostages now and the rest contingent on idf withdrawal from gaza. the original plan would have seen a staggered release of hostages leading to a permanent cease-fire and withdrawal. there are concerns that the efforts may break down entirely. and we may see a full-scale return to figh

president trump this morning up in our truth social. here is jamie in garden city, maryland.aller: i have so many thoughts. i watched huckle -- tucker carlson, he interviewed someone who wanted to run for president in ukraine. this is nothing more than the military industrial complex making a lot of money from the lobbyists to fund a perpetual war and longer money as people die. president trump is trying to create peace. that's what leaders do. i watched 60 minutes last night. i can't afford groceries. i will not spend $1 billion a month for ukraine's pension. there is no end to the war. to create peace would allow president trump's plan to come in and secure that area over there. get a little policing going. we will not do this nato nonsense military-industrial complex paid for by our tax dollars. host: who does the policing that you say? who does that? caller: the plan to mind minerals in ukraine would put some american presence there to maintain the disagreement. president trump and president putin or president zelenskyy, we could build something good here, make something

back of what you said about the president's call with destin trudeau, he just put this out on truth socialstin trudeau canada called me to ask what could be done about tariffs peered i told him that many people have died from fentanyl that came to the borders of canada and mexico and nothing he that it has stopped. he said that it has gotten better but i said that is not good enough. the call ended in a somewhat friendly manner, the president says. he was unable to tell me when the canadian election is taking place which made me curious like what's going on here, i then realized that he is trying to use this issue to stay in power. good luck, justin, the president said. we will see where this goes. mr. secretary, thank you for coming in today. really appreciate it. the weather and d.c. traffic. >> this president is so good. he is just amazing. >> sandra: mr. secretary, thank you very much for coming on. come back when you have another update. >> appreciate it. >> sandra: so john, we will see. there is a lot of wait and see in the markets. of course we have been following that. it sounds li

the president putting out on truth social there was 8,326 border patrol apprehensions, just for context sometimes there is more than 8,000 illegal aliens apprehended in a single day under the biden administration. jon? jon: quite a change. lucas tomlinson, thanks. for more on the stunning blow-up between presidents trump and zelenskyy, let's bring in nebraska if republican senator pete products who sits on the foreign -- pete ricketts who sits on the foreign relations committee. that meeting went on for 50 minutes or so and really the first half hour was all pretty cordial and seemed pretty normal. but then it went off the rails. what do you think happened are there? -- there? >> my observation, i obviously wasn't there, but from reading the reports the plan if was for zelenskyy the sign a mineral rights deal which would further strengthen the relationship between the united states and ukraine. and when he brought up the topic of putin, he basically threw the whole conversation off track. president trump is trying to create a place, a negotiating space for both ukraine and russia. and a

as for the conversation between the two leaders, the president posted aboutt it on truth social, calling canada's efforts to stop the flow of fentanyl, quote, not good enough. he also said the telephone call ended in a friendly manner, but suggested that prime minister trudeau was using the trade war to stay in power. mr. trudeau made no public comments today, but yesterday he was on the offensive after the u.s. tariffs took effect. canadians are reasonable and we are polite, but we will not back down from a fight, not when our country and the well-being of everyone in it is at stake. i want to speak first directly to the american people. we don't want this. we want to work with you as a friend and ally. and we don't want to see you hurt either. but your government has chosen to do this to you. yeah. so how are canadians responding? well, several provinces are pulling all american liquor off their shelves like kentucky bourbon canada added its own 25% tariff on american goods. joining us now is rana sarkar, the consul general of canada in san francisco. consul general sarkar, nice to hav

and indeed, trump's truth social posting suggesting that america would not put up with it much longer. referring to that quote about peace being very far away. adds to that idea. conversely, the commerce secretary, howard lutnick, has suggested that trump is not interested in changing ukraine's president. i just need to point out to people how incredibly complicated ukrainian officials. analysts say the idea of changing a presidency in wartime would indeed be on the constitution. you get the parliamentary speaker if the president resigns until you can hold elections, but you can't hold elections in wartime. so you would really need peace to lift martial law. and then most officials, including the deputy head of the election commission here, say you need six months to prepare because so much of the electoral infrastructure has been disrupted by war. and then there are 7 million ukrainian refugees abroad. how do they get to vote? how do the million in the army get to vote? you would essentially end up, if rushed, with a pretty illegitimate sounding result that would just fuel the kremli

that's according to a post he made moments ago on truth social. no other details of his plan has been made just yet. well, just into our newsroom, an elementary school in sonoma county forced to close today. this is after the inside was vandalized extensively. this is video from outside that school this morning. now, it doesn't show where the vandalism happened, but it does show police carrying what appears to be evidence bags. the school district says it sent a letter to families this morning asking students to stay at home while police investigate that incident, and the damage is cleaned up. it's not yet clear if the elementary school will reopen tomorrow, but investigators are asking anyone with information to reach out to the rohnert park police department. well, a day of protest is being held nationally here in the bay area as well. it is called a day without immigrants. now, this is new video from nbc bay area. sky ranger over oakland high school students there walking out of classes within the hour, marching to lake merritt. meanwhile, stud

sin e embargo, trump celebro la decision en truth social diciendo.amento de justicia acaba de devolver las cajas por las que el desquiciado jack smith hizo tanto alboroto, refiriendose al fiscal especial de ese caso. empleados del d departamento de educacion, la oficina de manejo de personal y el buro federal de prisiones recibieron un segundo correo electronico del departamento de eficiencia. gubernamental. el correo titulado que hiciste esta semana ? le pide a los trabajadores escribir cinco puntos de lo que lograron durante la semana y lo deben enviar antes del lunes a las 23:59 de la noche. la falta de respuesta se considerara como una renuncia. el ex gobernador de nueva york, andrew cuomo, se ha postulado ocialmente a la alcaldia de la ciudad de nueva york. lo anuncio hoy en un video de 17 minutos en el portal de su campana. cuomo indico que la ciudad esta en crisis y destaco sus posiciones moderadas sobre el crimen. como dimitio de su cargo como gobernador en agosto de 2021, en medio de varias acusaciones de acoso sexual, el papa francisco se m

writing on truth social that the prime minister's efforts to stop the tariffs are, quote, not good enough. although trump noted the call ended in a somewhat friendly manner. we start off with cnn's kaitlan collins at the white house. caitlin, you had a fascinating exchange with the white house press secretary. karoline leavitt, about the decision to hold off on these auto tariffs for one month. what did you learn? >> yeah, phil, obviously this is a huge relief for those three automakers who very much did not want to have to to deal with these tariffs because they were going to have massive consequences on them. obviously, as you know, these cars at times can go and cross borders multiple times during the production process. and so this was really going to have to change things for these automakers. and it shows you it's a relief for them. but it also reveals how capricious these tariffs really have been. whether a phone call like this one that happened with president trump and his senior aides and stellantis and gm and the other companies on this, how that can change that as they made the

but as donald trump pointed out on truth social europe, in the meeting they had with zelensky, stated flatly, they cannot do the job without the u.s. probably not a great statement to have been made in terms of a show of strength against russia. what are they thinking? he's right. president trump raises a great question what is europe thinking? the united states spends nearly $1 trillion annually on defense. all of the countries in the european union spend just about 326 billion combined. when it comes to funding ukraine, the same disparity continues. the u.s. has been carrying far more of the financial burden than ukraine's actual neighbors in their on their continent. and to top it off, your europe is actually sending more money to russia buying oil and gas than aid to ukraine. in fact, the eu bought a whopping $22 billion in fossil fuels from russia in 2024 alone. europe is making putin filthy rich so he can continue to feed his war machine. america. we should be supplying europe with all of their energy needs. and hopefully under donald trump's plan, that will soon be the case as

while it was the fake a i generated video, it was one that president trump put out himself on his truth social. is it a mattress? yeah, this is mattress. um, we have a very fragile talking and presents give a call to era situation between is ram and age of the oldest and most valuable piece deal bought about by america could only be sustained by america. americans not interested. steve witt, coffee is, is that boy sees a man, sees the middle east as a real estate opportunity, and i went to an event the other night with that was exactly how he described it verbatim. he sees it as a real estate opportunity. that's a touch of madness. this isn't a foreign policy school. there's a touch of genuine incentives here in, in this, in this approach to the rest of the well, a well financial times chief us commentator and communist ed loose. thank you so much for joining us today. very, very fascinating time. we're always a pleasure, steve. so what's the bottom line? we forget because it was a long time ago, but the united states used to be a fairly isolation as country. it's a curriculum and leadership b

donald trump has now threatened to follow the increased harris on canadian goods and a post on truth. social trump said, please explain to a governor to, to canada that when he puts on a retaliatory terrace on the united states. reciprocal attire will immediately increase by a like amount. have to go. haine has moved from washington. a us president donald trump has taken to social media to say that he will respond to canada is responding to his original terrace with more terrorist, but he didn't give any specifics. now let's remember, this is the present. who said that the tears might cause some pain just a little bit, but just temporarily. and when he is repeatedly told by reporters that isn't the countries the pay the terrace is the importers or getting orders in from those countries who often pass the cost along to consumers who is called that a mis. now, the vast majority of the economists say, that's exactly what is going to happen this. donald trump did these tariffs in his 1st term, but your very important differences. most household items were exempted. for example, toys from china.

trump posted to truth social, saying he can come back when he's ready for peace. it was very sad to see and palo alto resident irina and who is from ukraine, watched in shock. she insists zelensky wasn't getting the protections he was asking for. what happened today with all the accusations and the reason why he reacted like this? it's because he didn't see enough, didn't see enough meaningful security guarantees for ukraine. now, hopes for that agreement are on hold, and the president has threatened to pull all u.s. support to ukraine. i sincerely hope that there is still time, and there's still a possibility to sign the agreement. igor markov is with the bay area nonprofit noho ukraine, which provides humanitarian aid to the country. he says ukrainians who have been hard hit by three years of war are also facing shortages in resources after the u.s. recently dismantled usaid. it's very difficult to see, you know, the calculation or the rationale behind possibly, you know, not signing the agreement and not continuing the aid in the south bay. congressman sam licc

[laughter] golf club and truth social account, you know?hter] not the only one who got in hot water this week. jake tapper. [laughter] to be clear, not actually a woman but jay tapper looks like every liberal white chick who calls the black chicks. i'm sorry, he does but he got trashed on social media after announcing he's writing a book about media's efforts to cover up cognitive decline in one reason they are trashing him, nobody worked harder to cover up the decline then jake tapper. [laughter] a lot right here. >> obviously suffers from started. >> he's sharp physically, i mean mentally. biden shows signs of slipping in the article is mostly based on observations of republicans. cognitive decline like you are trying to tell me what i was suggesting -- i think you are marking his starter and diagnosed cognitive decline. >> apparently the book is titled original sin, if i did it by o.j. simpson.

to a man us and the last few minutes, donald trump has posted a message direct you to have some truth social us press one to release the captives at holes and calls. and now all that will be held to pay later. well, how you do a custom joins us from washington, dc. so how do you want more than he passed? what carry it appears that this was a very heated and emotional post from the american president. he says, having written it just after meeting with he said former hostages at the white house, and i'll just read you some segments. he's directing this to her mom saying release all of the hostages. now not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies. then he goes on to say, i am sending israel every thing, it needs to finish the job, not a single homeless member will be safe. if you don't do as i say, this is your last warning and i'm skipping ahead again to his final fraud. he says release the hostages now or there will be hell to pay later in all capitals. so i guess we can take away from this is we just heard about, steve would cost meeting directly with moss and could tar if that
