President Donald Trump gave a prime-time address to the nation yesterday to highlight his administration’s work on the economy, health care, and immigration. He also announced a $1,776 dividend to every US soldier. The speech came as a recent poll found his approval ratings had reached a two-term low.
The address also followed his announcement that the US military will impose a total blockade on sanctioned oil tankers near Venezuela. The US has 11 warships operating in the Caribbean Sea—its highest naval buildup there since the 1962 Cuban missile crisis. The Trump administration says it is targeting drug-trafficking boats. Trump has also threatened Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and reportedly gave him an ultimatum to step down or face further US military intervention.
Separately, the Senate voted yesterday to pass a $901B defense bill that compels Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to share unedited videos of the recent boat strikes.

Obama has killed more civilians with his drone strikes than any other Nobel Peace Prize winner.
DeepStatePropagandist has some serious mental issues and should be watched carefully.
@ DSP Go sit down as you know nothing of what you talk about.
It’s pretty insane that there are still humans who can’t sniff out what a moron that man (Trump) is. All he did was go up and re-air a bunch of nonsense grievances, lies, and put on full display his blind spots in understanding reality.
Earth to Trumpers: He did not lower drug prices by 600%. Have any of you gone to the pharmacy and gotten money back? If not, he hasn’t lowered prices 600%. (?)
Does anyone really think we have 20T in investments in the country since he took office? If so, he should be able to slice off 1/2 of the national debt! I’ll wait for the press report on that.
If Trump is so worried about people overdosing on Fentanyl, I’d love to see what his BBB did to things like mental health programs or addiction programs! He probably increased the funding, right? He just wants to free up access to their oil and rare earth minerals. Maybe we should look at why so many people in America feel the need to escape into drugs as work the problem that way?
Is there anyone out there that learned what makes America great is our ability to blow up boats in international waters?
Anyone still supporting this man is a moron.
Yes, let’s see the video, I’m sure there are hundreds of thousands of loved ones that need to see the retribution being meted out by our great President. Every drug smuggler still sucking good air should get a Hellfire missile right up their derriere. Democrats love criminals and hate America; it is no more complicated than that.
I will bet that the Democrats are having a field day on how Trumps Tie doesn’t line up with his Jacket.
