President Trump

Texas Democratic Congressman Al Green got kicked out of the State of the Union on Tuesday after appearing to protest one of President Donald Trump's racist social media posts.

Green held a sign which read "Black People Aren't Apes" as he was escorted from the event. Watch the video to see the tussle he gets into as he exits.

As you know ... Trump posted a video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes earlier this month. The post has since been removed from Trump's Truth Social page.

The celebration tour for the United States men's hockey team continues ... 'cause the gold medalists just met up with President Donald Trump at the Oval Office!!

A video shared by POTUS' staff showed the scene shortly after 3 PM EST -- about six hours before he is set to give the State of the Union address, which Team USA is slated to attend.

It was a grand welcome to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. As the winners checked out the Presidential Hall of Fame installed by Trump along the West Colonnade -- "Free Bird" was blaring over the loudspeakers.

After partying their butts off at E11EVEN in Miami just hours ago, the United States men's hockey team is already on their way to Washington, D.C. to link up with President Donald Trump ahead of Tuesday's State of the Union address -- and they're traveling courtesy of a military plane!!

Matthew Tkachuk shared a photo on Instagram as the team got ready to board the Air Force Boeing 757 bound for the nation's capital -- and it seems everyone made the early morning call time for the trip.

It was wheels up shortly before noon for the two-and-a-half-hour flight from the 305 to 202 ... where the team is expected to stop by the White House before sitting in on Trump's speech.

Ellen Hughes -- Team USA women's hockey player development consultant and Jack and Quinn's mom -- is giving her take on President Trump's locker room joke following Sunday's gold medal game ... saying what really matters to both squads is "unity."

Hughes -- a former member of the women's national hockey team herself -- was asked about POTUS' controversial comments to the men's team on Tuesday's episode of "Today" ... and while there are plenty of social media users pissed about the phone call, Hughes thinks the recent success of both organizations can bring folks together.

"At the end of the day, it's just about the country," Hughes said, "and the moment that these players, both the men and women, can bring so much unity to a group and to a country."

Nicki Minaj has been using her voice to prop up the MAGA movement ... but a new study finds that her platforms have been reportedly boosted by an coordinated army of more than 18,000 bots.

Politico shared the report, which was compiled by the disinformation detection company Cyabra ... in it, analysis of Nicki's social media activity from November 11 to December 28 found that thousands of fake accounts used similar language to praise Nicki's posts and attack authentic accounts who were critical of Nicki.

According to Cyabra, there was one day in December where 56 percent of all comments on Nicki's political posts were fake.

The armed man shot and killed by Secret Service agents outside President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago property Sunday had grown increasingly obsessed with the Epstein files and was also a vocal supporter of Trump … TMZ has learned.

Austin Tucker Martin sent a text message, obtained by TMZ, to a co-worker on February 15, 2026, that read, "I don't know if you read up on the Epstein Files, but evil is real and unmistakable." He continued, "The best people like you and I can do is use what little influence we have. Tell other people about what you hear about the Epstein files and what the government is doing about it. Raise awareness."

Sources who worked with Austin at Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club in North Carolina tell TMZ ... he became fixated on Epstein following the latest release of information tied to the files. Co-workers tell us he was deeply disturbed by what he believed was a government cover-up and often talked about powerful people "getting away with it."

People online are going nuts right now debating whether a C-Span caller named John Barron is actually President Donald Trump trying to get some good press.

Here's the deal ... somebody called into C-Span Friday under the name John Barron -- sounding exactly like Trump -- and it's splitting people into 2 camps ... those who think it's clearly an impersonator, and people who think this is exactly the kind of thing our president would do.

The people in the latter category have a good argument.

9:22 AM PT -- Authorities have identified the Mar-a-Lago man who was shot and killed by Secret Service as 21-year-old North Carolina resident Austin Tucker Martin.

A man in his early 20s was shot and killed by U.S. Secret Service agents after breaching the secure perimeter at President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago property early Sunday morning.

The U.S. Secret Service says the incident unfolded around 1:30 AM near the north gate of the Palm Beach estate.

According to officials, the man was observed near the property carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can. Secret Service agents, along with a deputy from the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, confronted him and shots were fired during the encounter.

The President was not at Mar-a-Lago when the incident occurred. He's currently in Washington, D.C.

President Trump says former Prince Andrew's arrest in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein Files is bad for the British royal family.

Trump was asked about Andrew's Thursday arrest during a scrum with reporters on Air Force One and said he thinks "it's a shame."

POTUS went on to say the whole situation was "very sad" and "so bad" for the Royals.

Donald Trump might’ve been celebrating Presidents Day stateside ... but over in Germany, they were dragging him through the streets -- literally.

Düsseldorf’s infamous "Rose Monday" carnival parade unleashed a brutal procession of Trump mockery ... with massive floats showing Trump caricatures punching Jesus, cozying up to Russian President Vladimir Putin, and even dancing pants-less with a gagged Statue of Liberty with his tongue hanging out.

They did not hold back on the visuals -- another Trump model had his naked rear in the air, with lipstick kisses labeled with various names and organizations -- all exaggerated for maximum effect in front of massive crowds.

Donald Trump is making it crystal clear ... if Nancy Guthrie’s kidnappers don’t bring her back alive, they could be staring down the ultimate punishment: the death penalty.

The President told the New York Post in a phone call the abductors need to release Nancy unharmed ... warning if she’s found dead, they’ll face "very, very severe -- the most severe" federal consequences.

When pressed on whether that meant the death penalty, Trump didn’t hesitate ... replying, "The most, yeah... that’s true."

Spencer Pratt might have a ton of supporters backing his Los Angeles mayoral run ... but, his sister Stephanie isn't one of them -- because she's warning people not to elect him!

Stephanie took to social media Saturday to bash her bro's political ambitions ... admitting he's done great work for the Pacific Palisades community -- but he can't be responisible for 4 million citizens.

Spencer's only running to boost sales of his memoir "The Guy You Loved to Hate: Confessions from a Reality TV Villain," Stephanie claims ... and, she tells people to just wait and see what he does with their tax dollars if elected.

Billionaire Emirati businessman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem has resigned from the top spot of major logistics company DP World ... after his links to Jeffrey Epstein put the business in jeopardy.

The multinational company -- owned by the government of the city of Dubai in the UAE -- put out a statement Friday announcing a new world chairman and new group CEO ... positions held by Sulayem.

While the statement doesn't actually name Sulayem, its meaning is clear ... the multibillionaire is officially out the door.

President Trump's White House is ripping Rep. Ilhan Omar after she seemingly called for him to be executed for allegedly being a pedophile.

White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson tells TMZ ... "It should deeply concern every single American that Congresswoman Omar is spreading such egregious lies and calling for the execution of President Trump, who has already survived two assassination attempts."

The response comes after the Democratic Congresswoman from Minnesota posted on social media, "The leader of the Pedophile Protection Party is trying to deflect attention from his name being all over the Epstein files. At least in Somalia they execute pedophiles not elect them."

President Donald Trump and his party might hate Somalia ... but, at least Somalia executes pedophiles there instead of electing them -- so says Rep. Ilhan Omar.

The Democratic Congresswoman from Minnesota took to social media, apparently to express her frustration with POTUS, after Trump badmouthed the country where she was born in a Tuesday night Fox Business interview ... in which he claimed Somali immigrants are damaging the state.

Omar -- who moved to the U.S. at 12 years old -- posted on her X account ... "The leader of the Pedophile Protection Party is trying to deflect attention from his name being all over the Epstein files. At least in Somalia they execute pedophiles not elect them." Her account has more than 2.7 million followers.

Mike Epps went too far ... according to his own take on an off-color joke he told at Nicki Minaj's expense.

The comedian apologized to the "Super Bass" rapper after footage from a recent stand-up set went viral. In the clip, he ribs Nicki about her newfound MAGA obsession, joking she had a "train ran on her by Donald Trump and them."

Now, in a video uploaded to Instagram, he's backtracking on the comments, saying, “Sometimes I get on that stage, and I have a little drink, and I go wild ... I’m non-filtered. Just wanted to apologize.”
