🇺🇸 Trump Delivers Powerful United Nations Address

In partnership with

Happy Wednesday, Patriots,

President Trump has once again shifted the global conversation on Ukraine.

Speaking at the UN, Trump broke from NATO’s cautious line and declared Ukraine could regain all of its territory—a bold move meant to pressure Putin back to the table.

Officials say Trump is frustrated that Moscow hasn’t followed through on promises to talk peace. By setting this new tone, he’s signaling strength without plunging America into endless foreign aid or reckless sanctions.

For Trump, the goal is clear: end the war on America’s terms, protect our interests, and force Europe to shoulder its share of the burden, finally.

âś…TRACKING TRUMPâś…

Curated by Mike Luso

Yesterday, President Trump took center stage at the United Nations and didn’t hold back. In true Trump fashion, he ripped into Europe’s leadership for failing to take on the biggest challenges of our time - unchecked immigration, instability in the Middle East, and weak responses to global threats. His words weren’t polite, they were powerful, and they sent a clear message: the world can’t afford to keep kicking the can down the road. Some leaders were clearly uncomfortable, but many nations heard the truth loud and clear, and it’s about time someone had the courage to say it.

Meanwhile, the Jimmy Kimmel saga rolled on, with ABC bringing him back despite a wave of backlash. Trump wasted no time blasting the decision, pointing out the hypocrisy of Disney bowing to the left while silencing conservative voices. It’s a fight that cuts to the core of free speech and accountability, and one that’s far from over.

Check out all the latest developments and more below!

📺 Trump Responds to ABC's Kimmel Support
President Trump slammed ABC and Jimmy Kimmel in a Truth Social post, expressing disbelief that the network gave Kimmel his job back after the White House was told his show was canceled. Trump criticized Kimmel's controversial comments about reactions to Charlie Kirk's assassination, which triggered his suspension from ABC, though Disney executives later reinstated the show with statements about sensitivity. Major affiliates including Nexstar and Sinclair announced they would not air Kimmel's program unless their demands were met, with Sinclair specifically calling for a direct apology to the Kirk family and a meaningful donation. Trump accused Kimmel of putting the network in jeopardy by playing "99% positive Democrat GARBAGE" and suggested ABC's support amounted to "a major illegal campaign contribution" to Democrats. The president referenced a previous legal victory, saying "Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 million," and concluded by telling ABC to "Let Jimmy Kimmel rot in his bad ratings."

🏛️ Trump Cancels Meeting Over Government Shutdown
President Trump canceled a scheduled meeting with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries over "unserious and ridiculous demands" as the government funding deadline approaches on September 30. Trump nixed the meeting in a lengthy Truth Social post, blasting the Democratic leaders for pushing "radical Left policies that nobody voted for" and declaring that no meeting could be productive under current circumstances. The canceled meeting came after Schumer and Jeffries sent a letter characterizing the Trump-backed short-term extension as "dirty" with partisan policy riders and warning it would continue "the Republican assault on healthcare" while ignoring expiring Affordable Care Act premium subsidies. Trump argued their bill would allow nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts from his legislation to be repealed and would end his $50 billion rural hospital fund, stating Democrats must "legislate like true Patriots rather than hold American Citizens hostage." Both Jeffries and Schumer responded harshly to Trump's decision, with Jeffries calling Trump's statement "unhinged" during a Brooklyn press conference and Schumer warning that "Donald Trump will own the shutdown" while accusing him of "running away from the negotiating table."

⚖️ Trump Responds to Conviction of Would-Be Assassin
President Trump expressed gratitude after a jury convicted Ryan Wesley Routh, 59, on five federal counts including attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate and possessing a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence, both carrying maximum sentences of life in prison. Routh was found guilty of attempting to assassinate Trump at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, with additional convictions for assaulting a federal officer, being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number. According to reports, Routh tried to stab himself in the neck with a pen after being found guilty and had to be escorted out of the courthouse by officers. Trump responded to the conviction at the United Nations General Assembly, praising the handling by Attorney General Pam Bondi and attorney Todd Blanche, saying "justice was served" and emphasizing the importance of not allowing such incidents to happen to any president or person. Evidence showed Routh, who is pro-Ukraine, had staked out a golf course hole with an AK-style rifle when a Secret Service agent spotted him and opened fire, leading to his arrest after a witness saw him fleeing in a black Nissan Xterra that contained cell phones, flight information, and directions to Miami International Airport.

🌍 Trump Says London Wants to Establish Sharia Law
President Trump declared at the United Nations that London wants to establish Sharia Law and specifically called out Mayor Sadiq Khan, the first Muslim mayor of the UK capital, with whom he has feuded since 2016. Trump criticized Khan as a "terrible, terrible mayor" and said London has been "so changed," adding that "they want to go to Sharia Law, but you're in a different country" and warning that immigration and energy policies would be "the death of Western Europe" if not addressed immediately. The UK Labor Party has advocated for allowing Sharia courts in Britain, with Minister Sarah Sackman supporting them as "courts of faith" that would operate alongside Christian and Jewish religious councils as part of British religious tolerance. Trump previously blocked Khan's attendance at the Royal Banquet hosted by King Charles during Trump's state visit to the UK, telling GB News he didn't want Khan there and calling him "among the worst mayors in the world" due to problems with stabbings, dirt, and filth in London. Khan responded to Trump's UN comments by calling them "bigoted" and unworthy of response, defending London as "the greatest city in the world, safer than major U.S. cities" and noting the record number of American citizens moving there.

đź”” Trump Delivers Powerful United Nations Address đź””

President Trump delivered a confrontational yet humor-filled address to the United Nations General Assembly, opening his speech with jokes about malfunctioning equipment that drew laughs from world leaders. Trump quipped about broken teleprompters, saying the operator was "in big trouble," and later joked about a broken escalator that stopped mid-ride with First Lady Melania Trump, telling the audience she would have fallen if she wasn't "in great shape."

The president used these technical difficulties as a metaphor for his broader critique of the UN, declaring that these were the only two things he received from the organization during his peace efforts. Trump slammed the UN for "creating new problems" rather than solving them, questioning the organization's fundamental purpose and effectiveness. He accused the body of "funding an assault on Western countries and their borders" by providing support to illegal immigrants entering the United States and Europe.

Trump highlighted his administration's peace achievements, claiming to have "ended seven wars" in just seven months during his first term, including conflicts between Armenia and Azerbaijan, Thailand and Cambodia, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and others. The president expressed frustration that the UN never offered assistance in these peace negotiations, saying he "never even received a phone call from the United Nations offering to help in finalizing the deal."

In a bilateral meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Trump declared that NATO countries should shoot down Russian aircraft that enter their airspace. When pressed on whether the United States would support NATO allies in such scenarios, Trump said it would "depend on the circumstances" but emphasized America's strong support for NATO, noting that member countries have increased their defense spending from two percent to five percent of GDP.

Trump sharply criticized NATO allies for continuing to purchase Russian energy, mocking them for "funding the war against themselves." He specifically called out China and India as the primary funders of the ongoing war through Russian oil purchases, but also expressed disappointment that NATO countries have not completely cut off Russian energy imports. The president revealed he learned about continued European energy purchases just two weeks prior and "wasn't happy" about it.

The president threatened new tariffs if Russia refuses to negotiate an end to the Ukraine conflict, but emphasized that European nations would need to adopt the same measures for the tariffs to be effective. Trump demanded that Europe "immediately cease all energy purchases from Russia, otherwise, we're all wasting a lot of time," noting Europe's proximity to the conflict compared to America's ocean barrier.

On Middle East issues, Trump denounced recent European recognition of Palestinian statehood as a "reward" for Hamas's "horrible atrocities, including Oct. 7." His criticism came one day after French President Emmanuel Macron announced France's recognition of a Palestinian state, with Trump arguing such moves encourage continued conflict and undermine ceasefire negotiations.

Trump described his efforts to contain Iran's nuclear program, revealing he sent a letter to the Supreme Leader offering "full cooperation in exchange for a suspension of Iran's nuclear program." When Iran continued its threats, Trump noted that "many of Iran's former military commanders, in fact, I can say almost all of them, are no longer with us," referring to successful military operations against Iranian leadership.

Throughout his address, Trump promoted his "peace through strength" philosophy, with Kosovo's President Vjosa Osmani separately praising this approach for preventing escalations between Kosovo and Serbia. The Kosovan leader credited Trump's administration with successfully managing regional tensions and preventing conflicts from escalating.

Trump concluded his address by touting America's economic strength and global standing under his leadership, declaring this "the golden age of America" while offering "the hand of American leadership and friendship" to nations willing to work toward a safer, more prosperous world. The president emphasized that America is "respected again, like it has never been respected before," while maintaining his criticism of multilateral institutions that he believes have failed to live up to their potential.

đź’» Google admitted in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan that the Biden administration created a "political atmosphere that sought to influence" the company's content moderation decisions on YouTube, acknowledging it was "unacceptable and wrong" for any government to dictate how they moderate content. The company revealed it terminated conservative channels for allegedly violating Community Guidelines on elections integrity and COVID-19 content, but announced it will now provide opportunities for all creators to rejoin the platform if their channels were terminated for violations of policies that are no longer in effect.

🗳️ Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is reportedly preparing for a potential 2028 presidential run or Senate campaign, with her team positioning her for higher office when Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is up for re-election and Democrats can next run to reclaim the White House. The New York congresswoman has hired former senior advisors from Sen. Bernie Sanders' orbit and has joined him on a national "Fighting Oligarchy" tour aimed at combating Trump administration policies. DNC Vice Chair Shasti Conrad says that the Democratic Party needs "hundreds of leaders" ranging from socialist NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani to Ocasio-Cortez, Pete Buttigieg, and other prominent Democrats to serve as messengers across the country.

🌎 Colombian President Gustavo Petro delivered a racist tirade calling for criminal proceedings against President Trump over military strikes against drug-laden vessels in the Caribbean and claiming "most drug traffickers are blond and blue-eyed" living in cities like Miami rather than Bogotá or Caracas. Petroaccused Trump of "murder" for the Caribbean operations and compared U.S. immigration policies to Hitler's actions, claiming America is part of a "rich, white, racist society." The far-left, pro-cocaine president argued that the men aboard the drug vessels were not traffickers but "impoverished Latin American youth who have no other choice" and bizarrely called for the creation of a joint army of Asian, Slavic, and Latin American soldiers to "free Palestine."

🛡️ The Secret Service announced they have discovered a network of over 100,000 SIM cards and 300 servers in the New York area, believed to be used by foreign “nation-state threat actors” and criminals for swatting calls targeting prominent conservatives. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene called for the death penalty for those responsible, while Sen. J.D. Vance warned of the national security implications. Federal authorities said the scheme used thousands of compromised devices to overwhelm infrastructure, and several individuals now face serious charges.

⛳ President Trump will attend the Ryder Cup on Friday, marking his third appearance at a New York sporting event this week after attending the U.S. Open final and a Yankees game on the anniversary of September 11. Championship golfer Scottie Scheffler expressed excitement about Trump's presence, calling it "extremely important after a tough few weeks for our country." Scheffler praised Trump as someone who "loves the game of golf" and "treats people with the utmost respect," revealing that Trump calls or texts him after big victories and has a unique ability to "feed confidence into everybody around him."

God bless,
