| | | | | 💰 Trump Says No Other President Could Do What He is Doing
Speaking to Republican lawmakers at the Members Issues Conference in Florida, Trump boasted that other presidents simply do not have the ability to deliver what he has delivered, specifically touting his Most Favored Nation drug pricing deals with pharmaceutical companies that have dramatically cut costs for American patients. Trump recounted how he personally pressured French President Emmanuel Macron into agreeing to pay fairer prices for prescription drugs, telling Macron he had a document on his desk ready to impose a 100% tariff on all French wines and champagnes if he refused. Macron ultimately agreed, and Trump said he secured similar deals with 14 major pharmaceutical companies during a stretch running from late September through December, including Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, Merck, and Pfizer. The administration's TrumpRx program, launched in February, now allows Americans to access steep discounts on popular drugs, including reducing the monthly cost of Wegovy from an average of $1,350 down to $350. Trump closed his remarks on the subject with a direct call to action, urging Congress to codify his Most Favored Nation pricing policy into law, saying that alone should be enough to win the midterms. | 🏛️ Trump Appoints Erika Kirk to Air Force Academy Board
President Trump appointed Erika Kirk, the widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, to serve on the Board of Visitors for the United States Air Force Academy. Charlie Kirk had originally been tapped to serve on the board before his assassination at Utah Valley University in September 2025, and Erika now steps into that role in his memory. Erika Kirk currently serves as CEO of Turning Point USA, the conservative youth organization her late husband founded, and her appointment is now listed on the Academy's official website. She joins the board alongside Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama, Dan Clark, Doug Nikolai, and Dina Powell, with one seat remaining vacant. Rep. August Pfluger, a graduate of the Academy and its board chair, praised the appointment, saying Erika is the right person to fill Charlie's place and continue his mission of inspiring the next generation of service members. | ⚖️ Judge Blocks Fani Willis from Trump's Legal Fee Fight
A Fulton County judge ruled that District Attorney Fani Willis cannot participate in the legal battle over Trump's effort to recoup millions of dollars in attorney fees from her collapsed racketeering case against him. Judge Scott McAfee found that because Willis was already "wholly disqualified" from the prosecution, she had no standing to intervene in the fee dispute, which involves more than $16.8 million in combined claims from Trump and his co-defendants, including over $6.2 million sought by Trump alone. Willis had been disqualified after the Georgia Court of Appeals found that an undisclosed romantic relationship she had with her lead prosecutor, Nathan Wade, created a conflict of interest, and the case was eventually dismissed entirely after the Georgia Prosecuting Attorneys' Council moved to drop it. Trump's lead attorney, Steve Sadow, said the ruling was correct, noting that Willis's disqualification for improper conduct bars her and her office from any further involvement in the dismissed case. The fee claims are grounded in a Georgia state law passed in 2025 that allows defendants to seek reimbursement when a prosecutor has been disqualified from the case. | ✈️ Trump Warns Iran Over Strait of Hormuz
After U.S. intelligence assets detected signs that Iran was taking steps to deploy naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly one-fifth of the world's oil supply travels, President Trump issued an unambiguous warning on Truth Social demanding Iran remove any mines immediately or face military consequences at "a level never seen before." Trump further warned that the U.S. would use the same missile technology deployed against drug traffickers to destroy any vessel attempting to lay mines in the strait, telling Iran to "BEWARE." Moments after posting his warning, Trump announced that U.S. forces had already destroyed ten inactive mine-laying boats in recent hours, with more to follow. At the White House briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt reinforced Trump's message by stating that any Iranian move to block oil or goods through the Strait of Hormuz would bring military retaliation 20 times harder than what Iran has already experienced. Iran is estimated to possess between 2,000 and 6,000 naval mines of Iranian, Chinese, and Russian manufacture, making the waterway a potentially significant vulnerability for global energy markets. |

| | | | | | 🔔 Trump Pushes Congress to Pass SAVE America Act🔔 | President Trump is pressing Congress on two simultaneous fronts, demanding immediate passage of the SAVE America Act while also calling on lawmakers to restore full funding to the Department of Homeland Security, where more than 100,000 employees have been going without pay. | White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt described the SAVE America Act as "one of the most critical pieces of legislation in our nation's history," laying out the bill's five core provisions during her Tuesday briefing: requiring photo ID to vote, requiring proof of citizenship to register, ending universal mail-in ballots while preserving exceptions for illness, disability, military, and travel, banning biological males from women's sports, and prohibiting transgender surgeries for minors. | Leavitt pushed back hard on claims that the legislation would prevent married women who changed their last names from voting, calling those claims false and clarifying that anyone already registered to vote would be entirely unaffected. She cited polling showing 90% of Americans, including more than 80% of Democratic voters, support requiring a photo ID to cast a ballot, and a Harvard-Harris poll found that 71% of registered voters overall support the bill, including 91% of Republicans and 69% of independents. | Trump has staked out an uncompromising position, posting on Truth Social that he will not sign any other legislation until the Senate sends the SAVE America Act to his desk, telling NBC News he is "not doing anything" until Congress acts. The bill already cleared the House on a near party-line vote of 218 to 213, with all 217 Republicans present voting in favor, but the Senate filibuster's 60-vote threshold has made passage a much steeper climb. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has said he plans to bring the bill to a floor vote, but acknowledged that passage is "not guaranteed" given that Republicans would need at least seven Democratic votes to overcome a Democratic filibuster, and the party is uniformly opposed. | Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has called the legislation "Jim Crow 2.0," and not a single Democratic senator has signaled willingness to cross the aisle on the bill. The most discussed procedural workaround is a "talking filibuster," championed by Sen. Mike Lee of Utah, which would force Democrats to physically hold the floor and speak continuously rather than simply casting a procedural vote to block debate. Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, initially listed among Republicans skeptical of the talking filibuster, reversed course and publicly stated he would support the approach if that is what it takes to get the bill passed. | Thune, however, remains cool to the idea, telling reporters the conference is "not unified" on the talking filibuster and cautioning that keeping 50 Republicans on the floor for weeks of continuous voting is an enormous logistical and political challenge. There is also no support in the chamber for eliminating the filibuster entirely, with Sen. Lisa Murkowski firmly opposed to changing the rules and Thune saying votes to "nuke" the filibuster are "not even close." | Adding further political complexity, Trump has appeared to link his still-withheld endorsement in the Texas Senate primary to progress on the SAVE Act, with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton publicly offering to drop out of the race only if Senate Republicans passed the legislation. On the DHS funding crisis, Leavitt said Trump wants TSA, FEMA, and the Coast Guard fully paid and fully operational, calling out the airport security lines that have worsened across the country during the weeks-long funding lapse. | The two fights, the SAVE America Act and the DHS shutdown, have become the defining legislative test of the Republican trifecta, with Trump betting that his base's demand for results will eventually force the Senate to find a way forward or face the political fallout of failing to deliver. | | | | | 🍟 Quick Bite News 🍟 | 🗳️ The special election to fill the Georgia congressional seat vacated by Marjorie Taylor Greene, who left Congress after a public falling-out with Trump over the Epstein files, is headed to an April 7 runoff. Retired Army Brigadier General Shawn Harris finished first with 39.9% of the vote, followed by Trump-endorsed District Attorney Clay Fuller at 34.2%, out of a field of 17 candidates. With Republicans holding a razor-thin 218 to 214 majority in the House, the seat represents a high-stakes contest in a district Trump carried by 37 points in 2024. | 🏛️ Speaker Mike Johnson, speaking at the House Republicans' annual policy retreat at Trump's Doral resort in Florida, said the president will be "on the ballot" in a metaphorical sense come November, warning that losing the midterms would bring chaos to Washington. Johnson said Trump plans to campaign with the same energy as 2024, running rallies and events across the country, and called him the party's most powerful turnout machine. Johnson closed with a direct challenge to political forecasters, declaring "this is a midterm like none other" and urging doubters not to bet against House Republicans. | 💰 Trump's Federal Reserve chair nominee Kevin Warsh met with Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, the Republican who has been holding up the confirmation process over his concerns about an ongoing Justice Department criminal probe into current Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Tillis told reporters he supports Warsh and is a "real fan" of the nominee, but wants the Powell investigation resolved before he can vote to advance the nomination out of the Senate Banking Committee. Because a discharge vote to override Tillis's hold would require 60 senators and is considered a long shot, the timeline for Warsh's confirmation remains uncertain as Powell's term as chair approaches its May expiration. | ✈️ Cuban human rights activist Rosa Maria Paya is calling on the Trump administration to maintain pressure on Cuba's communist government, warning that the island's deepening crisis of rolling blackouts and food shortages cannot be solved through economic reforms alone. The Trump administration has tightened the squeeze on Havana by curtailing oil shipments, particularly from Venezuela, which Cuba has long relied upon as a key supplier, and the country's largest power station has already suffered a catastrophic failure. Trump praised Secretary of State Marco Rubio's efforts and suggested he would play a central role in any negotiations, with Rubio signaling he intends to turn his full attention to Cuba once the situation in Iran is resolved. | God bless,
