Biden stumbles through first post-Trump speech

By Nathan Gay | Daily Wire Former President Joe Biden broke his three-month silence Tuesday evening, addressing Social Security in his first public speech since President Trump took office. Biden addressed a gathering of advocates for disabled people in Chicago, accusing Trump and Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency of trying to “dismantle” Social Security. Biden, already 30 minutes late, was off to a rough start as the former president appeared to begin reading off the teleprompter while the walkout music was still playing, seemingly oblivious to the fact that he was inaudible to the audience.

Trump says new tariffs on semiconductor chips coming in ‘very near future’

By Leif Le Mahieu | Daily Wire President Donald Trump said Sunday that he would announce new tariffs targeting semiconductors in the next week amid an ongoing trade war with China. While speaking to reporters on board Air Force One, Trump said new tariffs on electronic goods, including semiconductors, were in the pipeline. Semiconductors are used in a wide variety of electronic goods like smartphones and computers. “The tariff will be in place in the not distant future because as you know, like we did with steel, like we did with automobiles, like we did with aluminum, which are now fully on, we’ll be doing that with semiconductors, with chips, and numerous other things. And that will take place in the very near future,” Trump said, adding that the goal was to move semiconductor a...

Trump Admin to crack down on public housing for illegal aliens

By Spencer Lindquist | Daily Wire The Trump administration is working to prevent illegal aliens from accessing public housing, with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Housing and Urban Development (HUD) teaming up to end the “wasteful misappropriation” of taxpayer money. The two federal agencies laid out their plans in a memorandum of understanding, stating that they will share data and work together to identify illegal aliens who are currently in public housing. “We will safeguard precious taxpayer resources, and we will stop the harmful practices of the former Biden administration, which favored and prioritized illegal aliens over American citizens in the expenditure of housing funds and subsidies,” the memo reads, also adding that the measure is intended to “hel...

Trump slaps tariff on all countries that buy oil from Venezuela

By  Zach Jewell | Daily Wire President Donald Trump announced on Monday that any nation that purchases oil from Venezuela would be hit with a 25% tariff by the United States. Trump wrote on Truth Social that the “Secondary Tariff” on Venezuela is in response to the country “purposefully and deceitfully” sending violent criminals to the United States. The Trump administration has begun deporting alleged violent Venezuelan illegal immigrants to El Salvador, where they are being held in a notorious prison. “Among the gangs they sent to the United States, is Tren de Aragua, which has been given the designation of ‘Foreign Terrorist Organization.’ We are in the process of returning them to Venezuela — It is a big task!” Trump said. “In addition, Venezuela has been very hostil...

Inside the now-shuttered federal agency where employees lived ‘like reigning kings’

By Luke Rosiak | Daily Wire One of the seven small federal agencies that President Donald Trump ordered downsized or eliminated on Friday was rife with corruption, with its employees hiring friends and relatives, commissioning paintings of themselves, and using government credit cards to indulge in constant luxuries. The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) occupied a nine-story office tower on D.C.’s K Street for only 60 employees, many of whom actually worked from home, prior to the pandemic. Its managers had luxury suites with full bathrooms; one manager would often be “in the shower” when she was needed, while another used her bathroom as a cigarette lounge. FMCS recorded its director as being on a years-long business trip to D.C. so he could have all of h...

Canada backs down on electricity surcharge after Trump tariff threats

By Mairead Elordi | Daily Wire Canada backed down from its threat to impose a 25% surcharge on electricity coming into the Unites States after President Donald Trump said he would double tariffs on Canada’s steel and aluminum products. Ontario Premier Doug Ford said Tuesday that he had agreed to suspend the electricity import surcharge after speaking with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, which the two called a “productive conversation” in a joint statement. Ford and Lutnick said they plan to meet on Thursday to discuss renewing the trade deal between the United States, Canada, and Mexico that Trump signed during his first term ahead of April 2, when the United States plans to impose reciprocal tariffs on almost every country.

Walsh: Sanity is making a comeback

By Matt Walsh | Daily Wire, Commentary Just a few days after BLM and Antifa set fire to a church outside the White House in the summer of 2020, the mayor of Washington D.C., Muriel Bowser, issued an emergency order. This wasn’t an order about restoring law and order to the streets of the nation’s capital, or punishing the vandals who had just destroyed property and assaulted Secret Service agents, or anything like that. Instead, Bowser made the decision to hire an elite team of eight artists — yes, eight artists — to meet up at around 3:30 a.m. in the morning. These artists’ mission, if they chose to accept it, was to paint the words “BLACK LIVES MATTER” on two blocks of road, in giant fifty-foot-tall letters, just a few blocks from the White House. This street painting would be referre...

‘This is your last warning!’: Trump sends message to Hamas

By Ryan Saavedra | Daily Wire President Donald Trump issued what he said would be his final warning to Hamas on Wednesday, saying “there will be hell to pay” unless they immediately release all remaining hostages. Trump made the remarks after meeting with a group of hostages that had been recently released from Gaza after well over a year in captivity. “‘Shalom Hamas’ means Hello and Goodbye — You can choose,” Trump posted in a message to the Islamic terrorist group. “Release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you.” READ THE FULL STORY AT THE DAILY WIRE

Pam Bondi says FBI lied to her about turning over all of the Epstein files

By  Ashe Schow | Daily Wire In a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel, Attorney General Pam Bondi accused the bureau of lying to her about turning over its files on millionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Bondi sent the letter on Thursday, after she said she learned from a source Wednesday night that she hadn’t received all the Epstein files despite the FBI’s repeated assurances that she had. “Before you came into office, I requested the full and complete files related to Jeffrey Epstein,” Bondi wrote to Patel, according to a copy of the letter posted to X by Michael Shellenberger. “In response to this request, I received approximately 200 pages of documents, which consisted primarily of flight logs, Epstein’s list of contacts, and a list of victims’ names and phone numbers.” R...

Trump confirms tariffs on Mexico, Canada will be implemented March 4

By Hank Berrien | Daily Wire President Donald Trump on Thursday confirmed that tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico will indeed be implemented on March 4, as well as hitting China with an additional 10% tariff. “Drugs are still pouring into our Country from Mexico and Canada at very high and unacceptable levels,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “A large percentage of these Drugs, much of them in the form of Fentanyl, are made in, and supplied by, China. More than 100,000 people died last year due to the distribution of these dangerous and highly addictive POISONS. Millions of people have died over the last two decades. The families of the victims are devastated and, in many instances, virtually destroyed. We cannot allow this scourge to continue to harm the USA, and therefore,...
