I’d love to ask Minister: International Relations and Cooperation if he’ll repeat his threat to white South Africans when he sits in the Oval Office with President Trump next week. Be that bold in front of the President and the world media. We’ll be watching. Remember it wont be SABC and News24

Waltz tells what happened after the fight in the Oval Office - the Ukrainian team was in tears, but Zelensky stayed argumentative Q: After the press left, you and Rubio told Zelensky he should leave the White House? Waltz: We had a meeting, and advised the president that after that insult in the Oval Office he shouldn't engage further. We told Zelensky and his team. To be clear, this was not an ambush - that claim is categorically false. 1/

🇺🇸 MAMDANI: I TOLD THE PRESIDENT I OPPOSED THE ACTION IN VENEZUELA “It was a phone call, not too different than the other conversations that I’ve had with the president, be it in the Oval Office or in the call that we’re discussing right now. It was honest, it was forthright, it was direct, and in this case it was also brief. I made clear to the president that I opposed this action by the federal government, that unilaterally attacking a foreign country is an act of war. It is done in violation of international law and also federal approval, and I am in opposition to a pursuit of regime change.” Source: Kaitlan Collins Zohran Kwame Mamdani

Reporter explains that during the Biden years when he was at the White House there was never a marine in front of the oval office but now there is constantly a marine in front of the oval office. When there is a marine in front of the oval office, that means the president is in there.

#WATCH | Delhi: Congress MP Jairam Ramesh says, "It was natural that the Prime Minister meet all the 50 MPs who were members of these seven delegations that went to 32 countries. That was not a surprise as far as we were concerned. But we have only four simple questions. We would like the Prime Minister to answer these questions. Question number one - When will the Prime Minister chair an all-party meeting and meet the leaders? Leaders and not MPs and take them into confidence on the internal and external security challenges that have emerged after the Pahalgam terror attack. Secondly, our question is that after the Kargil war, we had a Kargil review committee... will there be a similar exercise, especially after the CDS revelations in Singapore? Will there be a review? Will there be an analysis? ... So will there be a report? Will it be tabled in Parliament? The third question is, during the Monsoon session, will the Prime Minister allow a two full-day discussion on internal and external security challenges, on China, on Pakistan, on the new emerging technologies which we have to contend with, with the challenges posed by President Trump's repeated claims..."

The cameras were rolling for a routine Oval Office meeting with Philippine President Bongbong Marcos. Trade and international relations were on the agenda....until they weren’t. One question from the press turned the entire conversation upside down. A reporter brought up Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s investigation into political corruption and asked who should ultimately be held responsible. Trump didn’t hesitate. Not for one second. He dropped names. “Well, based on what I read, and I read pretty much what you read, it would be President Obama. He started it.” He named the rest of Obama’s band of corrupt miscreants. “And Biden was there with him and Comey was there and Clapper, the WHOLE group was there. Brennan, they were all there in a room.” Then Trump looked around the space: “Right here. This was the room.” The Oval Office....the very space where, Trump now claims, it all began. Kind of poetic if you think about it.

Jeffries: We were ready the discussion in front of the American people and we fully expected that would happen because every other meeting that the president has had throughout the year of consequence has been televised with the media president. I was very surprised when I walked into the Oval Office and it was crickets, there was nobody there. I think what it suggested is the Republicans know they have a weak hand. They can’t publicly defend their position.
