🇺🇸 Trump Liberation Day in Washington D.C.

In partnership with

Happy Tuesday, Patriots!

President Trump just made historyand he’s not apologizing for it.

In a move no president has ever taken before, Trump placed Washington, D.C.’s police department under direct federal control and ordered 800 National Guard troops into the streets.

His goal? End the crime, clean up the filth, and make our nation’s capital the safest city in America.

“Washington, D.C. will be LIBERATED today!” Trump declared, vowing that “Crime, Savagery, Filth, and Scum will DISAPPEAR.”

This unprecedented step comes after the shocking carjacking assault of a 19-year-old former government worker—and years of what Trump says is failed leadership from Mayor Bowser.

✅TRACKING TRUMP✅

Curated by Mike Luso

President Trump continues to stand strong against the chaos engulfing our nation’s capital, promising to restore order and safety to Washington D.C. Just yesterday, he revealed plans to deploy the National Guard alongside federalizing the local police force, tough, decisive action that has predictably sent the left into a frenzy, labeling it as a "fascist" power grab and mere political posturing.

Meanwhile, the president is gearing up for a high-stakes summit with Vladimir Putin in Alaska next week, with the world keenly watching to see if Ukrainian President Zelensky will make an appearance. With so much on the line, next Friday’s meeting promises to be nothing short of historic, and we can’t wait to see how it unfolds.

Check out all the latest developments and more below!

🌍 Trump Criticizes Zelenskyy Over Land Swapping Dispute
President Trump expressed severe disagreement with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a Monday press event, particularly criticizing Zelenskyy's objection to proposed "land swapping" arrangements and his insistence on constitutional approval for any territorial exchanges. Trump argued that while Zelenskyy has approval to go to war, he claims to need constitutional approval for land swaps, which Trump found contradictory and problematic. Zelenskyy has repeatedly stated that any territorial arrangements would require a national referendum under Ukraine's constitution, not a unilateral presidential decision. President Trump described his upcoming meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin as a "feel-out meeting," saying he would know within the first two minutes whether a deal could be made and that he plans to tell Putin "you got to end this war." The President expressed his desire for a ceasefire very quickly and indicated he would be dealing with European leaders and President Zelenskyy to achieve what he hopes will be great success in ending the conflict.

⚖️ Whistleblower Accuses Schiff of Classified Leaks to Hurt Trump
A Democratic whistleblower who worked for Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee for over ten years told the FBI that Adam Schiff approved leaking classified information to discredit President Trump, according to newly-released documents. The intelligence staffer, who reported Schiff's alleged behavior to the FBI in 2017 and was most recently interviewed in 2023, called the leaking "treasonous" and "illegal" in addition to being unethical. According to the documents, the whistleblower personally attended a meeting where Schiff allegedly told staff they would leak classified information derogatory to Trump, stating the information would be used to indict the President. When the whistleblower expressed concerns that this would be illegal, unnamed meeting members reportedly reassured that they would not be caught leaking classified information. FBI Director Kash Patel shared the report on social media, saying the FBI found and declassified the information so Congress could see how classified information was leaked to shape political narratives and decide if institutions were weaponized against the American people.

💻 Trump Secures Deal with Chip Companies for China Sales
Chipmakers Nvidia and AMD have agreed to give the U.S. government 15 percent of their revenues from chip sales in China as part of negotiations to obtain export licenses from the Trump administration, marking the first time a U.S. company has agreed to pay a portion of revenues to obtain such licenses. According to the Financial Times report, Nvidia will share 15 percent of revenues from its H20 chip sales in China, while AMD will provide the same percentage from its MI308 chip revenues, with the administration not yet determining how these funds will be used. The arrangement follows controversy surrounding Nvidia's H20 chip, which was designed for the Chinese market after President Biden imposed export controls on more advanced AI chips, and came after President Trump initially planned to ban H20 exports in April but reversed course after meeting with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. Some security experts have expressed concerns about selling the H20 chip to China, arguing it could help the Chinese military and undermine U.S. artificial intelligence strength, though Nvidia has rejected these claims as "misguided."

🏛️ Trump and Newsom Dispute Heads to Federal Trial
The legal fight between President Trump and Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom over National Guard deployment in California is proceeding to a three-day trial starting Monday, where government attorneys will argue that Trump had legal authority to deploy roughly 4,000 National Guard soldiers to Los Angeles to assist with anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protests and riots. Judge Charles Breyer, a Clinton appointee, previously granted a temporary restraining order favoring Newsom. That ruling stated that President Trump's National Guard mobilization was illegal because it infringed on California's authority, but this decision was quickly reversed by a unanimous three-judge panel. The appellate court found that courts have limited ability to review whether a president has properly invoked the law to federalize the National Guard, concluding that Trump likely lawfully exercised his statutory authority under the relevant federal statute. While most National Guard members have since been demobilized with about 300 remaining active according to Newsom's recent announcement, the trial will examine the 150-year-old Posse Comitatus Act, which bars military use for civil matters. Meanwhile, Newsom is arguing President Trump violated this law by having National Guard illegally engage in law enforcement activities.

🔔 Trump’s Liberation Day in Washington D.C. 🔔

President Trump declared Monday that his administration would take unprecedented federal control of Washington D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department and deploy 800 National Guard troops to combat what he described as spiraling crime in the nation's capital. The dramatic announcement came during a White House press conference where President Trump declared it "Liberation Day" and called the situation "a tragic emergency" that was "embarrassing" for him as he prepares for high-stakes meetings with foreign leaders, including his upcoming Friday meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Under the Home Rule Act, Trump has the legal authority to federalize D.C. police for up to 30 days in emergency situations, placing the department's 3,400 officers under the command of DEA administrator Terry Cole while Attorney General Pam Bondi oversees the broader operation.

The D.C. Police Union, representing officers throughout the metropolitan area, strongly endorsed President Trump's takeover, stating that "crime is spiraling out of control, and immediate action is necessary to restore public safety." However, the union emphasized that federal intervention should be temporary, with the ultimate goal of empowering a fully staffed and supported Metropolitan Police Department to protect the city effectively. FBI Director Kash Patel appeared at a command center Monday afternoon in a show of support, telling reporters that "when you let good cops be cops, give them the tools they need, and back them every step of the way, they deliver - every time."

U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro defended the administration's actions, arguing that the federal government will not tolerate crime that is "out of control" in the nation's capital. Pirro highlighted problems with D.C.'s juvenile justice system, explaining that young gang members know they face limited consequences unless they commit the most serious crimes like murder or armed robbery, with prosecutors unable to handle cases where victims are shot but survive. Meanwhile, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth promised that National Guard troops would serve as "force multipliers" alongside law enforcement partners, with their deployment being "conditions-based" and potentially lasting weeks or months depending on the president's assessment of the situation.

The federal takeover drew sharp criticism from Democratic leaders and local officials, with D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser calling the move "unsettling and unprecedented" while noting that violent crime in the district has reached a 30-year low. The D.C. City Council condemned what they termed a "manufactured intrusion on local authority," pointing to Metropolitan Police Department data showing a 26% reduction in violent crime and a 7% decrease in overall crime compared to the same period last year. MSNBC contributor Eddie Glaude accused President Trump of using racial politics and attempting to distract from other issues, while the National Capital Region Delegation of House Democrats called the takeover "a soft launch of authoritarianism" and an "unacceptable publicity stunt."

Despite the statistical improvements cited by critics, Trump and his administration point to different data showing persistent problems, including murder rates that exceeded those of cities like Bogota and Mexico City, with carjackings more than tripling over the past five years. The administration's actions were praised by Tamara Tarpinian-Jachym, whose 21-year-old son Eric, a congressional intern, was killed in a drive-by shooting in June with no arrests made in his case. She expressed hope that President Trump's intervention would ensure that her son "hasn't died in vain" and that other people would be safe when visiting or working in D.C.

The federal intervention represents a significant escalation in Trump's approach to urban crime, following similar National Guard deployments in Los Angeles earlier this year despite opposition from Governor Gavin Newsom. As the nation's capital prepares for this unprecedented federal oversight, the debate continues over whether such dramatic measures are necessary given the conflicting crime statistics and the constitutional questions surrounding federal intervention in local policing matters.

🍟 Quick Bite News 🍟

🏛️ President Trump has reportedly moved the official portraits of former Presidents Barack Obama and both George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush to the Grand Staircase area of the White House, according to sources who say the portraits are now out of view from thousands of daily White House visitors. Previously, Obama's portrait had hung in the White House entryway, but Trump personally directed staff to relocate it to the top of the Grand Staircase, with both Bush portraits also moved to the same staircase area. Trump is reportedly involved in every aspect of the White House's aesthetics and has made several changes including personally funding two massive American flags for the grounds and announcing plans for a privately funded $200 million State Ballroom expansion.

🇺🇦 President Trump expressed skepticism about achieving a Ukraine peace deal during his upcoming meeting with Vladimir Putin, telling reporters he would know "probably in the first two minutes" whether a deal is possible and warning he may "leave and say good luck" if Putin is not sincere about negotiations. Trump acknowledged previous failed efforts, stating he'd "have a great call with him and then missiles would be lobbed into Kyiv," while expressing disagreement with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's refusal to participate in territorial concessions that would violate Ukraine's constitution. State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce argued that "if there's anybody who can confront and deal with and manage Putin, it is Donald Trump," while Trump plans to meet Putin in Alaska before potentially arranging a three-way meeting with Zelenskyy and Putin.

🧠 President Trump launched a renewed attack on Representative Jasmine Crockett, calling her a "Low (Very!!!) I.Q. Individual" and demanding she take a cognitive test similar to one he recently completed at a Washington D.C. military hospital, where doctors said he "ACED it, something that is rarely seen." The escalating feud centers around Crockett's accusations that Trump is pushing a "white supremacy agenda" and "diluting the voices of people of color" through redistricting efforts, while she has dubbed him a "Temu dictator" and called him a "piece of s---" during a progressive rally in Phoenix. Crockett has responded to Trump's attacks by questioning his own intelligence and citing his "most incompetent Cabinet in the history of this country," while defending her credentials and stating she has "the degrees, the credentials, and the receipts."

🎃 Congress faces a potential government shutdown crisis as lawmakers return from their August recess without completing annual spending bills before the October 1 deadline, creating what one observer described as a "chamber of horrors" atmosphere in the Capitol during September. House Speaker Mike Johnson can only lose three Republican votes to pass spending measures without Democratic assistance, while Senate Republicans need 60 votes to overcome a filibuster, requiring Democratic support despite previous tensions over interim spending packages. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer previously helped Republicans avoid a shutdown in March by agreeing to break a filibuster.

📺 Former Bravo reality TV star Jennifer Welch went on an expletive-filled rant on her "I've Had It" podcast, demanding that people who voted for President Trump three times be banned from Mexican, Chinese, and Indian restaurants, stating they should only be allowed to eat at Cracker Barrel because they don't deserve to "enjoy the best thing that America has to offer, which is multiculturalism." Welch attacked Trump with profane language and criticized "MAGA-looking people" she observed at a Mexican restaurant, saying they had "a lot of f---ing nerve" given the administration's immigration policies. Her co-host Angie "Pumps" Sullivan agreed completely and went further by attacking female Trump voters, demanding they give up credit cards and bank accounts in their own names and "be completely beholden to a man."
