#10 Republican [Thomas Massie] Blasts Mike Johnson Over Government Funding Bill - Aila Slisco for Newsweek, Thomas Massie/Daniel Horowitz, Ike Runderson/Scott Horton, and Adam on X
Republican Congressman Thomas Massie is speaking out against Speaker of the House Mike Johnson's plan to pass a "clean" government funding bill endorsed by President Donald Trump. Newsweek reached out for comment to Johnson's office via email on Tuesday night. Johnson and other Republican leaders hope to pass a temporary government funding bill, or continuing resolution (CR), before the March 14 shutdown deadline. Republicans control Congress but have little margin for error, with slim majorities in both the House and the Senate. The pressure to pass a funding bill comes as Trump and Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) attempts to dramatically curtail government spending with executive orders, cost-cutting measures at federal agencies, and mass firings of government workers...
#9 Trump Taunts Elizabeth Warren Over Ukraine Stance During Speech: ‘Pocahontas Says Yes’ - Ryan King for New York Post, Collin Rugg, Swig, X AEon X, Cyndexia America Truther,
President Trump brutally needled Sen. Elizabeth Warren, belittling the Massachusetts Democrat with his favorite nickname for her –“Pocahontas” — during his address to the joint session of Congress Tuesday night. The taunt came after Trump mocked Democrats for wanting to keep supporting Ukraine with military aid in its war with Russia over the next five years, which prompted Warren (D-Mass.) to clap. She kept doing so even as the president ridiculed her. “The United States has sent hundreds of billions of dollars to support Ukraine’s defense,” Trump complained during his address, drawing rare claps from Democrats...

A suspected senior planner in the suicide bombing at the Kabul airport that killed 13 American service members during the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan has been taken into custody and is being brought to the United States to face charges, President Donald Trump announced Tuesday night. Senior Pakistani intelligence officers on Wednesday confirmed the arrest and said the suspect was captured in the country's restive southwest Balochistan province near the border with Afghanistan after multiple operations had failed to seize him. Trump, in a joint address to Congres,s said he was "pleased to announce that we have just apprehended the top terrorist responsible for that atrocity. And he is right now on his way here to face the swift sword of American justice.”#7 Make Eggs Healthy Again - Tracy Beanz and Michelle Edwards for The HighWire, Jordan Schachtal, Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH, Robert W Malone, MD, and Sayer Ji on X
Always striving to be healthy, it stuck with me after learning as a teenager that the American food staple, the egg, was “the perfect protein.” Many believe that eggs are the most nutritious food on the planet because, along with other significant health benefits, they are quickly absorbed and effectively used in the body. Even better, they contain all nine essential amino acids—meaning those not produced in the body that must be obtained from the diet—in the proper ratios. Pretty impressive, right? For nearly a century, eggs have also been the cornerstone in the production of the flu vaccine. And since the dawn of the pandemic, studies have found that chicken egg yolk antibodies block the binding of multiple SARS-CoV-2 spike protein variants to human ACE2. Wow! Yet, despite billions in funding going back decades to control bird flu, chickens are being destroyed by the millions, and grocery shelves across the nation have no eggs. What is really going on?#6 Trump Tasks RFK Jr. With Investigating Autism Rates Among Children - WSJ, Holden Culotta, MJTruthUltra, Sharyl Attkisson, Dr Russell McGregor, and Camus on X

Marjorie Taylor Greene on X
President Donald Trump on Saturday signed an executive order making English the official language of the U.S. The order revokes an executive order issued by former President Bill Clinton in 2000, "Improving Access Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency," that required federal agencies and recipients of federal funding to provide language assistance to non-English speakers. However, Trump's order notes it does not "require or direct" any change in services provided by any agency.
#4 Desantis Again Expresses Support for Reducing or Eliminating Property Taxes During State of the State Address - Jim Saunders for News4Jax, Florida Voice, The Blaze, and Eric Daugherty on X
Gov. Ron DeSantis helped launch the 2025 legislative session on Tuesday by calling for curbing property taxes, among other changes. DeSantis largely stuck to broad ideas, rather than detailed plans, during his annual State of the State address to a joint session of the Legislature in the House chamber. The 60-day session will include myriad issues, including the House and Senate negotiating a budget that likely will exceed $115 billion. DeSantis and other Republicans recently have floated the idea of eliminating or reducing local-government property taxes. While the governor did not provide a detailed proposal Tuesday, he again expressed support for the issue...

#2 Congressman Al Green of Texas Removed From Trump’s Speech for Interrupting - Kaia Hubbard for CBS News, Brigitte Gabriel, Paul A. Szypula, The Stoic Plumber, and Terrence K. Williams on X
President Trump's address to a joint session of Congress was quickly interrupted Tuesday night, as Democratic Rep. Al Green of Texas stood and shouted in protest when Mr. Trump began touting his victory in the 2024 election. Green was quickly escorted from the House chamber. Green, 77, has represented a Houston, Texas, district in the House since 2005. The Texas Democrat has previously pushed to remove Mr. Trump from office, authoring articles of impeachment against him during the president's first term. He threatened to do so again last month after the president suggested the U.S. would take over Gaza...#1 Florida Attorney General Opens Criminal Investigation Into Andrew and Tristan Tate - CBS News, Sara Higdon, Petey B/Forrest Saunders, Boycott the Woke, and Dr. Maria Peiro/Attorney General James Uthmeier on X
