It맥스카지노�s easy to be exhausted. But America needs you now more than ever.맥스카지노�Video below: First-term Michigan senator delivers Democratic response to Trump's speech11:17 p.m.맥스카지노�We맥스카지노�ve gone periods of political instability before, and ultimately, we맥스카지노�ve chosen to keep changing this country for the better," Slotkin said.Slotkin closed her response to Trump맥스카지노�s speech by saying, 맥스카지노�This isn맥스카지노�t the first time we맥스카지노�ve experienced significant and tumultuous change as a country.맥스카지노�She described herself as a student of history and said that the U.S. is resilient and has emerged stronger from periods of social and political upheaval in the past.11:15 p.m.맥스카지노�Grocery prices and home prices are going up, not down," Slotkin said. "And he hasn맥스카지노�t laid out a credible plan to deal with either of those.맥스카지노�Grocery prices aren맥스카지노�t actually rising by much, except for high-profile items such as eggs. Grocery costs, on average, have risen just 1.9% in the past year. At the peak of inflation in 2022, grocery prices soared more than 13% in a year. 11:13 p.m.맥스카지노�No CEO in America could do that without being summarily fired," she said.Slotkin criticized a Trump administration effort led by Musk for firing scores of federal employees only to rehire them then after realizing those dismissed worked on critical issues.She suggested that Musk himself would have lost his job if he had done similarly in the business world.11:11 p.m.Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin said that President Donald Trump is 맥스카지노�trying to deliver an unprecedented giveaway to his billionaire friends,맥스카지노� in Democratic response to his first joint congressional address of his second presidency.Slotkin is attempting to present a refined economic message as the Democratic Party continues to struggle to unify around a strategy to counter Trump.11:10 p.m.Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan is delivering the Democrats' response to Trump.Slotkin is a first-term senator who won in a state that Trump also took in 2024.11:05 p.m.Trump has set a record for the longest address to a joint session of Congress. And it wasn맥스카지노�t even close.He talked for more than an hour and 40 minutes, breaking the previous record set by President Bill Clinton맥스카지노�s 2000 State of the Union address, which ran 1 hour, 28 minutes and 49 seconds.That맥스카지노�s according to the American Presidency Project at the University of California at Santa Barbara, which has tracked speech length since President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964.Trump맥스카지노�s speech is not technically a State of the Union since he only took office about six weeks ago. But his lengthy address is nonetheless the longest offered to a joint session of Congress.Video below: Trump arrives in House chamber ahead of address to Congress11 p.m.Trump ended his speech, which was the longest joint address to Congress in U.S. history.맥스카지노�The golden age of America has only just begun,맥스카지노� he told Congress as he finished his speech after speaking for nearly 100 minutes.Republican lawmakers rose to their feet and cheered the conclusion of Trump맥스카지노�s address, pumping their hands in the air while chanting 맥스카지노�Fight! Fight! Fight!맥스카지노�Democrats quickly streamed from the chamber while GOP lawmakers tallied to shake hands with the president. 10:58 p.m.Trump says the U.S. government is extraditing a suspect in the deadly Abbey Gate bombing in the final days of the Afghanistan withdrawal that killed 13 American servicemembers.The White House identified the man as Muhammed Sharifullah and said he was on his way to the U.S. to face charges.FBI Director Kash Patel said the extradition was the result of work by the FBI, Justice Department and CIA.10:56 p.m.Trump recited a letter he received earlier Tuesday from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, saying that the wartime president wants to come back to the table after an explosive Oval Office meeting last week broke down negotiations for a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine.맥스카지노�We맥스카지노�ve had serious discussions with Russia and have received strong signals that they are ready for peace,맥스카지노� Trump said. 맥스카지노�Wouldn맥스카지노�t that be beautiful?맥스카지노�Video below: What맥스카지노�s next for peace talks after Trump-Zelenskyy clash10:55 p.m.It was the only line from Trump맥스카지노�s speech that drew more applause from Democrats than Republicans, yet Democrats applauded as Trump acknowledged that the U.S. has sent billions of dollars in military aid for Ukraine.A few Republicans also applauded but were more subdued. However, GOP lawmakers rose in a standing ovation when Trump told them that Ukraine was showing it was ready to negotiate a peace deal.And seated Democrats joined Republicans맥스카지노� standing applause for Americans recently released from Russia through a deal brokered by the Trump administration.10:51 p.m.Trump said the U.S. supports Greenland맥스카지노�s right to determine its own future but would 맥스카지노�welcome맥스카지노� the country into the United States for national security 맥스카지노� and to make them rich, he claims.맥스카지노�I think we맥스카지노�re going to get it," he said of Greenland. "One way or another, we맥스카지노�re going to get it.맥스카지노�Since his first term in office, Trump has expressed interest in acquiring Greenland, which is a semiautonomous territory of Denmark, a longtime U.S. ally and a founding member of NATO. It is also home to a large U.S. military base.Video below: Trump has reiterated belief that Greenland should belong to the US10:50 p.m.Trump signed an executive order renaming a wildlife refuge for a young girl who prosecutors say was killed by two Venezuelan men in the country illegally.맥스카지노�The death of this beautiful 12-year-old girl and the agony of her mother and family touched our entire nation greatly," Trump said.Jocelyn Nungaray 맥스카지노�s death was one of several cases last year that became flashpoints in the immigration debate. Prosecutors have charged two Venezuelan men who entered the U.S. illegally with capital murder. Nungaray맥스카지노�s mother campaigned for Trump. She was in the audience Tuesday as Trump gave his address.Speaking of Jocelyn맥스카지노�s love of animals, Trump said he decided to rename the wildlife refuge near her Houston home for her.10:48 p.m.맥스카지노�I want Congress to pass a bill permanently banning and criminalizing sex changes on children and forever ending the lie that any child is trapped in the wrong body," Trump said.Trump has already used executive actions to roll back a series of Biden administration policies promoting transgender rights, and he has vowed to stamp out 맥스카지노�gender ideology.맥스카지노�During his speech, the president asked Congress to limit gender-affirming surgeries performed on minors, though he offered few details. Some of Trump맥스카지노�s executive actions, meanwhile, have already been met by legal challenges.10:45 p.m.맥스카지노�Beautiful towns like Aurora, Colorado, and Springfield, Ohio, buckled under the weight of the migrant occupation and corruption like no one맥스카지노�s ever seen before," Trump said. "Beautiful towns, destroyed.맥스카지노�Both Springfield and Aurora figured in Trump맥스카지노�s campaign. At the time, he amplified false conspiracy theories that legal Haitian immigrants in Springfield were eating dogs and cats.Aurora had a more serious issue: a series of incidents at rundown apartment complexes, one of which was captured on video that showed heavily armed men going door to door. But the buildings have since been closed.10:40 p.m.More than a dozen Democrats joined Republicans in a standing ovation for a guest of Trump, a child diagnosed with cancer who Trump said aspires to become a police officer. The child, named DJ, was held up by his father as Republicans and attendees in the House gallery chanted 맥스카지노�DJ.맥스카지노�Trump announced DJ would be sworn in by his new Secret Service director as a member of the force. DJ was held up by his father as he received a Secret Service badge by Director Sean Curran.Democrats then went largely silent as Trump discussed his health policies. Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib held up a whiteboard that read, 맥스카지노�You cut cancer research.맥스카지노� One Republican shouted, 맥스카지노�MAHA baby!맥스카지노�Video below: 13-year-old cancer survivor made honorary member of US Secret Service10:35 p.m.Rep. Veronica Escobar, D-Texas., first shouted 맥스카지노�January 6th맥스카지노� as Trump recounted his plans for combatting crime throughout the country. At least a dozen Democrats joined in the repeated chant as Trump discussed the need to crack down on violent criminals.Trump pardoned around 1,500 rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021, in a bid to overturn the results of the 2020 election.10:32 p.m.맥스카지노�As we reclaim our sovereignty, we must also bring back law and order to our cities and towns," he said. "In recent years, our justice system has been turned upside down by Radical Left lunatics."Trump has long promoted a tough-on-crime agenda and sought to paint Democratic-led cities as besieged by violence, despite statistics showing a downward trend in violent crime after a spike during the coronavirus pandemic.Trump맥스카지노�s comments also echo his campaign trail rhetoric about the need for more aggressive policing. He suggested last year that 맥스카지노�one rough hour맥스카지노� of law enforcement action would tamp down retail theft. He has also advocated for ensuring that officers 맥스카지노�have immunity from prosecution.맥스카지노�10:30 p.m.Trump praised his wife for lobbying for a bill that would make it a federal crime to post intimate imagery online, whether real or fake. He thanked the Senate for passing the measure.The president called it a 맥스카지노�terrible, terrible thing맥스카지노� to publish such images online. He then seemingly joked: 맥스카지노�I맥스카지노�m going to use that bill for myself, too, if you don맥스카지노�t mind.맥스카지노�10:25 p.m.맥스카지노�Those goods that come in from other countries and companies, they맥스카지노�re really, really in a bad position in so many different ways," Trump said. "They맥스카지노�re uninspected. They may be very dirty and disgusting as they come in and they pour in and they hurt our American farmers.맥스카지노�Laying out more details on how he plans to stimulate the farming economy, Trump argued that increasing U.S. tariffs on agriculture products from abroad would protect domestic producers at home while acknowledging, 맥스카지노�It may be a little bit of an adjustment period.맥스카지노�But tariffs wouldn맥스카지노�t necessarily stop farm products from coming aboard. They could, however, make them more expensive for U.S. consumers, as some economists argue.Video below: How tariffs could affect produce10:22 p.m.Trump is touting a plan he announced on Feb. 26 to offer a 맥스카지노�gold card맥스카지노� for prospective rich immigrants.맥스카지노�For $5 million, we will allow the most successful job creating people from all over the world to buy a path to U.S. citizenship," Trump said. "It맥스카지노�s like the green card, but better and more sophisticated."The program will replace an existing one offering U.S. visas to investors who spend about $1 million on a company that employs at least 10 people.Under Trump맥스카지노�s plan, investors would have to pony up $5 million. They would have to pay taxes in the U.S., Trump said. More than 100 countries around the world have something similar.But some countries, including Spain and the U.K., have ended their programs. Spain맥스카지노�s program was criticized for causing soaring housing prices, while there were security concerns over the U.K. program.10:20 p.m.Trump said farmers need to 맥스카지노�bear with me again맥스카지노� as he imposes tariffs.맥스카지노�I love the farmer,맥스카지노� he said.But the retaliatory action from other countries could hurt farmers맥스카지노� bottom lines by billions of dollars collectively if they remain in place long term, and consumers could quickly see that result in higher prices at the grocery store.The exact toll is hard to predict at this stage. But tariffs make farmers uneasy about investing in expensive equipment.맥스카지노�Farmers are very concerned,맥스카지노� said Steve Kuiper, a director at the Iowa Corn Growers Association.10:17 p.m.Trump맥스카지노�s shoutout to one of his guests, an Alabama steelworker, father of seven and foster parent to 40, received a standing ovation from Republican lawmakers and applause from a clear majority of the seated Democratic caucus.Other guests of Trump and First Lady Melania Trump received scattered seated applause from Democrats as well.Video below: First lady arrives at House chamber ahead of presidential address10:14 p.m.Trump said: 맥스카지노�$8 million to promote LGBTQI+ in the African nation of Lesotho, which nobody has ever heard of.맥스카지노�Trump cited the funding as an example of government waste uncovered by his administration and the Department of Government Efficiency.Trump맥스카지노�s move to freeze foreign aid has significantly impacted a program that fights HIV in Lesotho, a poor nation in southern Africa. The program was started by Trump맥스카지노�s Republican predecessor, former President George W. Bush.10:10 p.m.One of Trump맥스카지노�s orders is intended to ban transgender athletes from participating in girls맥스카지노� and women맥스카지노�s sports. At least 24 states have already passed similar laws and a federal version sputtered this week in the U.S. Senate.맥스카지노�From now on, schools will kick the men off the girls team or they will lose all federal funding," Trump said during his speech.Like others, he portrays the order as a way to protect girls and women.In the audience was Payton McNabb, a former North Carolina high school athlete who suffered a concussion and neck injury that ended her athletic career after a ball hit by a transgender athlete struck her in a 2022 match.The president of the NCAA said last year he was aware of fewer than 10 active NCAA athletes who identified as transgender.Video below: The battle between Maine, Trump administration over trans athletes10:07 p.m.Trump said: 맥스카지노�Believe it or not, government databases list 4.7 million Social Security members from people aged 100 to 109 years old. It lists 3.6 million people from ages 110 to 119.맥스카지노�The databases may list those people, but that does not mean they are getting paid benefits, as Trump implied.Social Security맥스카지노�s acting administrator, Lee Dudek, said last month: 맥스카지노�The reported data are people in our records with a Social Security number who do not have a date of death associated with their record. These individuals are not necessarily receiving benefits.맥스카지노�Part of the confusion comes from Social Security맥스카지노�s software system, which is based on the COBOL programming language and has a lack of date type. This means that some entries with missing or incomplete birthdates will default to a reference point of more than 150 years ago.10:03 p.m.Republicans jumped to their feet in applause as Trump told them 맥스카지노�the days of unelected bureaucrats are over.맥스카지노�But at the same time, Democrats pointed to Elon Musk, who is heading up the Department of Government Efficiency. Democrats have levied their criticism at Musk as his team has scoured the federal government, cutting probationary employees and federal contracts.10 p.m.Democratic Rep. Gil Cisneros, D-Calif., shouted, 맥스카지노�What about the $400 million Tesla contract!맥스카지노� at Trump as the president discussed his cuts to the federal government.Democrats increasingly groaned, shouted, 맥스카지노�Not true!" and 맥스카지노�Those are lies!맥스카지노� as Trump listed cuts his administration believes it has made to the federal budget.More House Democrats also exited the chamber, bringing the total to at least a half dozen opposition lawmakers who left Trump맥스카지노�s joint address.9:53 p.m.Multibillionaire Elon Musk stood at Trump맥스카지노�s invocation of his Department of Government Efficiency.The tech mogul waved as Republicans in the chamber cheered him.9:48 p.m.Trump says his government must move quickly to lower egg prices.Trump talked about the price of eggs and other key staples at grocery stores, where prices have remained stubbornly high due to inflation.He said Biden 맥스카지노�let the price of eggs get out of control맥스카지노� and instructed members of his Cabinet to bring them down, saying they need to fix rising prices that he suggested the previous administration left them with.Video below: 'Egg prices out of control,' says Trump in comments on inflation9:44 p.m.Trump said his administration has rushed to ban diversity and inclusion programs in the federal government and dismiss workers charged with advancing such efforts.맥스카지노�Our country will be 맥스카지노�woke맥스카지노� no longer,맥스카지노� he said.His efforts have prompted private companies and other entities to similarly roll back efforts to promote diversity. They have also drawn a series of legal challenges, many of which are still in court.9:38 p.m.Trump admonishes Democrats for not cheering him.맥스카지노�It맥스카지노�s very sad, and it just shouldn맥스카지노�t be this way,맥스카지노� Trump said.That was him chiding Democratic members of Congress for failing to stand and applaud as the president delivered his speech.Democrats remained seated as Trump said it, some scowling. Many held up small black signs printed with 맥스카지노�False맥스카지노� in white lettering. Every time Trump boasts of his accomplishments, they hold up the signs.맥스카지노�Lie after lie after lie,맥스카지노� came one shout from the Democratic side of the chamber.9:34 p.m.Some Democrats silently hold small signs protesting Trump맥스카지노�s joint address.The circular black signs have bold white lettering, including the statements 맥스카지노�Protect Veterans,맥스카지노� 맥스카지노�Save Medicaid,맥스카지노� 맥스카지노�False,맥스카지노� and 맥스카지노�Musk Steals.맥스카지노� The congress members held the signs higher as the president began his remarks.9:30 p.m.맥스카지노�America is back.맥스카지노�Trump started his address by taking a line from his predecessor in the White House, Joe Biden.As president, Biden repeatedly said in speeches that he told world leaders that 맥스카지노�America is back.맥스카지노� The former president meant those words as a sign to allies in Europe and Asia that the United States was reengaging with the world. In one noted anecdote, Biden said that one world leader responded to his comment by asking how America would be back. There was a fear among allies, Biden said, that Trump could return.Now, Trump is using Biden맥스카지노�s line to suggest that his return to the presidency means his vision of America is back.9:26 p.m.Rep. Al Green, a Democrat from Texas, was removed from the House floor after standing in protest to President Donald Trump's address.Green was asked multiple times to sit down by House Leader Mike Johnson, but Green refused, leading the sergeant-at-arms to escort him out. 맥스카지노�The presidential election of Nov. 5 was a mandate like has not been seen in many decades,맥스카지노� Trump said as he began his speech.맥스카지노�You have no mandate,맥스카지노� Democratic Rep. Al Green countered.Republican members cheered at his removal, shouting 맥스카지노�Get out!맥스카지노� and 맥스카지노�Goodbye!맥스카지노� at the lawmaker. Green shouted, 맥스카지노�You have no mandate to cut Medicaid!맥스카지노� at Trump before police escorted him from the chamber. Video below: Democratic Rep. Al Green removed from House chamber after disrupting Trump address to Congress9:20 p.m.Trump has begun his joint congressional address to 맥스카지노�USA! USA!맥스카지노� chants and talking about the first 43 days of his administration, which has been marked by a major effort at reshaping and downsizing the federal government led by billionaire Elon Musk, spats with America맥스카지노�s allies and economic uncertainties brought by new tariffs.9:18 p.m.The Republican side of the House chamber was on their feet, whistling and applauding as Trump맥스카지노�s entrance was announced.The Democrats, meanwhile, were practically motionless. They were seated and mostly faced forward as Trump entered.9:15 p.m.President Donald Trump arrives.9:10 p.m.The president맥스카지노�s Cabinet has entered the House chamber.

Former Justice Anthony Kennedy is also present.Absent from the group were Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor.9 p.m.In his joint congressional address, Trump is expected to take credit for 맥스카지노�swift and unrelenting맥스카지노� action on immigration, economy and security, according to early excerpts released by the White House.Trump will begin his speech by saying he has accomplished more in his six weeks in office than most administrations in four or eight years. He is also expected to call this moment the 맥스카지노�dawn of the Golden Age of America.맥스카지노�8:55 p.m.Overlooking the House chamber, Elon Musk has taken a seat in the gallery.Wearing a suit with a dark blue tie, Musk received a bit of applause from other guests in the gallery as he shook hands with those seated around him.Seated along with him is newly confirmed FBI Director Kash Patel, as well as members of Trump맥스카지노�s family 맥스카지노� Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and Lara Trump.8:50 p.m. Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins has been selected to be the designated survivor for Trump's speech, according to a White House official.When government officials gather for big events, a 맥스카지노�designated survivor맥스카지노� is kept away to make sure someone in the line of presidential succession stays alive in case of a catastrophic or mass-casualty event.8:45 p.m.Vice President JD Vance is entering the House chamber to hearty handshakes and hugs from his fellow Republicans.Until just a few weeks ago, Vance held an office in the Capitol as Ohio맥스카지노�s senator.
