President Trump spoke with reporters during an impromptu tour of the White House ballroom construction site on Tuesday, calling the project his “gift” to the country. Senate Republicans are revising immigration funding plans after a key provision tied to the White House renovation effort hit a roadblock. The Senate parliamentarian ruled against a $1 billion measure intended to help fund the East Wing overhaul, even as Trump says the ballroom is privately funded and ahead of schedule.

Attorney General Todd Blanche said Wednesday that if Congress were to pass a law prohibiting the creation of an anti-weaponization fund, "we would support that, as would the White House." “The president feels very strongly, as do I, that there were people who were victims of a Department of Justice that was absolutely weaponized. And he feels very strongly that he would want to make them whole, as do I,” Blanche said. “But it will not be through the anti-weaponization fund..."

🚨 THIS IS STARTING TO LOOK LIKE A REAL REBELLION. For months, Republicans have marched in lockstep behind nearly everything coming out of Trump's White House. Not this time. According to Ted Cruz, at least 20 Republican senators were furious during a closed-door meeting with Todd Blanche over the anti-weaponization fund. Twenty. Not Democrats. Republicans. 🔥 The fund wasn't some long-planned policy priority. According to reporting, it emerged because Trump's legal team was running into a major problem: How do you justify the President suing his own government, collecting a settlement, and then creating a mechanism to distribute money tied to that settlement? Now the issue has escaped the courtroom and landed in Congress's lap. And senators want nothing to do with it.

The Senate passed a bill at 3 AM without fully funding ICE or CBP and then left to go on vacation. The bill they left us with was unacceptable. House Republicans passed a bill on Friday night that would fund the entire government. It’s time for the Senate to stop playing games and get back to work.

IVAN RAIKLIN'S PLAN TO FORCE THE SAVE ACT THROUGH THE SENATE While many senators continue saying there aren't enough votes to pass the SAVE America Act, Ivan Raiklin says Republicans are asking the wrong question. Speaking with LindellTV's Alison Steinberg on Capitol Hill, Raiklin laid out a bold proposal: Have Vice President JD Vance Vance take control of the Senate as President of the Senate and use his constitutional authority to force action. Raiklin argues JD Vance should: • Replace the Senate Parliamentarian • Force an open vote on Senate leadership • Halt Senate business until Trump's nominees are confirmed • Make passage of the SAVE America Act a top priority "Time's run out." Ivan Raiklin says Republicans can either keep accepting excuses about not having the votes or test the system and find out who is truly willing to fight for election integrity. His message to Senate Republicans and the The White House: "What do you have to lose?"

THIS IS WHY REPUBLICANS ARE REVOLTING AGAINST THE DOJ FUND. According to reports from a closed-door Senate meeting, the Acting Attorney General could not guarantee that the proposed $1.776 billion anti-weaponization fund would exclude January 6 defendants. That got lawmakers' attention. The concern wasn't about the size of the fund. It was whether people convicted of assaulting police officers during the Capitol attack could potentially receive compensation from it. That's why opposition isn't just coming from Democrats. It's coming from Republicans who say that possibility is a political and moral nonstarter.
