MORE said Monday there will be military tanks on display on the National Mall for this week's Independence Day celebration. "We're going to have some tanks stationed outside," Trump said during a bill signing in the Oval Office. "You've got to be pretty careful with the tanks because the roads have a tendency not to like to carry heavy tanks.

“The Democrats want to treat them with health care and with other things better than they treat the citizens of our country,” Trump said. The president commented on Democrats after ten 2020 presidential candidates favored giving illegal immigrants tax-payer funded health care insurance in the last debate. “It’s crazy what they’re doing, it’s crazy and it’s mean and it’s very unfair to our citizens,” Trump said. The president also defended including the citizenshi

“He stares at these problems and says if we keep banging away the way we have been forever — the positions are staked out — the likelihood of success is almost nil,” he told The Washington Times. “Let’s try and come at this from a different direction.” The president was going to be in South Korea after Group of 20 meetings in Japan “and says, ‘I’m gonna be up there,’” Mr. Pompeo recounted. “From Pyongyang to the border is not that far. Maybe Chairman Kim will come meet me!” This alone would be enough to make history. But Mr.

First, there will be a new event at the Lincoln Memorial that is specifically dedicated to honoring the United States armed forces called “Salute to America.” The one-hour “Salute to America” program from 6:30 p.m.-7:30 p.m. ET will feature an address by Trump, military aircraft flyovers, and performances by each branch of the military. “We’re gonna have a great Fourth of July in Washington, D.C.

The freshman lawmaker – along with fellow Democrat lawmakers – toured migrant shelters in the El Paso area Monday. She has been providing updates to her 4.59 million Twitter followers, detailing what she claims are ratty facilities with abysmal care and rampant mistreatment by law enforcement. However, she made one small concession Monday afternoon, tweeting a picture of a shampoo packet supposedly handed to her by a woman in the facility. “CBP made us check our phones. But one woman slipped me this packet to take with me.

MIAMI — As her fellow Democrats talked over one another amid a discussion of race and policing, Senator Kamala Harris interrupted and told the moderators of Thursday night’s presidential debate that she’d like to speak “as the only black person on stage.” Then she delivered a powerful blow to the field’s front-runner, former vice president Joe Biden — just one of many attacks the 76-year-old would endure throughout the course of a night that raised doubts about the stability of his spot on the top of the polls. Harris sharply criticized Biden’s record on race, b

Set against a tense, eerie silence in the landmine-riddled mountains separating South and North Korea, the Demilitarized Zone may be the highest-stakes negotiation site on earth. It is not the sort of place for mistakes. It is the latest spot where Ivanka Trump has tried her hand at statecraft. On Sunday, Ivanka Trump, the president’s elder daughter, used an impromptu meeting between her father and Kim Jong Un, the North Korean leader, to further slip into the role of unofficial spokeswoman and budding stateswoman for the Trump administration.

“Jail-like.” “Hot warehouse.” “Wholly inadequate.” Those are the words that US representatives from Massachusetts used to describe migrant detention centers after touring them in Texas on Monday. Joe Kennedy III, Ayanna Pressley, and Lori Trahan were among more than a dozen House members to tour the facilities.

EL PASO, Texas — Lawmakers described how migrant women were being held in a cell with no running water and told by US Customs and Border Protection officers to drink out of toilet at a Texas detention center amid widespread concerns about deplorable conditions. More than a dozen House members, including three from Massachusetts, visited facilities in El Paso and Clint, Texas — a trip that came on the same day as a news report that Border Patrol agents made vile posts in a secret Facebook group. Some of the posts discussed throwing burritos at the visiting lawmak
