I watched it to see if he announced that he was gonna release the Epstein files. He didn’t. The 25-minute prime-time address underscored Trump's effort to make election security a central political issue ahead of November's midterm elections, when his fellow Republicans will be defending their slender congressional majorities.

Trump ‌used his remarks to again press Republicans in Congress to pass legislation imposing new voter identification and citizenship requirements, despite longstanding findings that voter fraud in U.S. elections is rare. The bill has stalled in the Senate amid fierce Democratic opposition.

U.S. President Donald Trump declassified documents on Thursday that he asserted showed Chinese interference in U.S. elections, reviving his long-running attacks on election security despite a U.S. intelligence assessment that found no evidence Beijing affected the 2020 vote that he lost.

The United States has had wartime presidents before; one reliable estimate puts the U.S. at war in 93 percent of the calendar years since its independence 250 years ago. Wartime presidents customarily seek to rally the country behind them and the combat they threaten, initiate, or are forced to join. They have sought unity, at times with high moral purpose (Franklin Delano Roosevelt, entering the Second World War in 1941) and in periods of division seeking future, or restored unity (Abraham Lincoln at the opening of the Civil War, 1861). In all cases, they always have asserted the sanctity of American institutions.

U.S. President Donald Trump's push to build the Western Hemisphere's largest aluminum smelter in rural Oklahoma has divided the state's Republican voters and emerged as a key issue in the contentious race to be the next governor.

The two Republicans who will face off for their party's nomination on August 25 have taken opposing views, underscoring the willingness of some conservatives to buck Trump and use industrial projects as campaign ‌leverage.

“I'm not going to let it be built," Gentner Drummond, the state's attorney general, said at a candidate forum last month with his opponent, former state Senator Mike Mazzei. "We have to protect farmland."

The $4 billion smelter project would be the first in the U.S. since 1980, but it has attracted some opposition from the community where it is slated to be built.

It became a major campaign issue in May after Trump endorsed Mazzei for the June 16 gubernatorial primary. Mazzei had opposed the smelter until the day Trump endorsed him.

Mazzei, who runs a Tulsa wealth management firm, said in a statement that he is "proud to stand with President Trump and support a project he's made clear is a national security imperative." Mazzei's campaign turned down multiple interview requests.

Drummond filed a lawsuit from the attorney general's office days later to block Emirates Global Aluminium and Century Aluminum (CENX.O) from building the smelter, a move opponents characterized as an attempt to use the project as a campaign wedge.

The strategy worked. Neither candidate garnered 50% of the first-round vote, forcing an August 25 runoff. The winner is likely to win the November ⁠general election in the deeply Republican state, where nearly two-thirds of voters supported Trump in each of the past three presidential elections and where a Democrat has not won the governor's mansion in 20 years.

The project, which received a $500 million U.S. Energy Department grant, is central to Trump's plans to boost America's minerals production. Roughly half of the aluminum used in the U.S. is imported, much of it from Canada. The proposed massive aluminum smelter in Inola, Oklahoma, plans to draw its electricity from the local regional power grid.

Farewell Leavitt We Won't Miss You

To mark Karoline Leavitt’s retirement announcement, here are some of her most memorable moments as press secretary.

www.youtube.com

Leavitt, 28, took the job as White House Press Secretary last year - becoming the youngest person to ever have the role. It was not immediately clear who will replace her. In February last year, her office seized control of the White House press pool, stripping organisational duties from the White House Correspondent's Association, as well as initially barring the Associated Press over its refusal to adopt the term "Gulf of America". She served as national press secretary for the 2024 presidential campaign before taking the podium as the youngest press secretary in U.S. history.

Leavitt will depart from her role to spend time with her young children and family, the president says.

“The lunch meeting with GOP senators was called to bring attention to the SAVE America Act, which Trump has deemed critical to winning the midterm elections (that Trump doesn’t care about) but lacks enough support to pass.

Administration officials Thursday announced they would soon begin work to build President Donald Trump’s (not America’s?) planned 250-foot-tall triumphal arch, his most significant change to Washington’s skyline.



The announcement comes three days after the Supreme Court allowed Trump to keep building his planned White House ballroom, with a 5-4 ruling that historical preservationists who sought to block that project lacked legal standing to bring their case to court.

That decision created new hurdles to other court challenges of Trump’s projects, legal experts warned, and Justice Department lawyers invoked it Thursday as they sought to dismiss a legal challenge to the arch.

Historical preservationists, Democratic lawmakers and some Washington residents have opposed the project, calling it an oversize and inappropriate structure that will disrupt the historically solemn corridor between the military cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial.

The Trump administration plans to build the arch in Memorial Circle, a traffic roundabout tucked inside Washington’s boundaries near Arlington National Cemetery. Trump has said that the arch will honor the nation’s 250th anniversary, vowing that it will be the largest triumphal arch in the world — about 86 feet taller than France’s famed Arc de Triomphe.

It is also the subject of a lawsuit brought by several military veterans who say the towering structure would alter their experience when visiting the nearby military cemetery. Trumps Administration lawyers Thursday asked a federal court to throw out the military veterans’ challenge to the arch, citing the Supreme Court ruling on the ballroom as precedent.

Trump officials say work will start on triumphal arch within two weeks — The Washington Post

The planned 250-foot-tall structure near Arlington National Cemetery is one of the president’s top construction priorities.

apple.news

Trumps Administration officials have laid out an aggressive timeline to potentially complete the arch within two to three years, saying that crews would work 20 hours per day, year-round. Trump and his deputies also contend that they do not need approval from Congress because lawmakers authorized a somewhat similar project a century ago (?) that was never built?
