Rep. Johnathan Jackson is firmly in Pope Leo's corner amid a recent beef with President Trump ... and he's reminding POTUS he's not God.
A photog got the Congressman from Illinois arriving in Washington D.C. Monday after Congress' two-week paid vacation and asked him about Trump's attacks on the Pope.
Jackson, the son of the late Reverend Jesse Jackson, says Pope Leo is not to be messed with, and Trump needs to be reigned in.
President Donald Trump got some heat for posting -- and ultimately deleting -- an A.I.-generated pic of himself as Jesus ... but he says that wasn't his intention.
In a news conference Monday, Donald said ... "I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor." Trump claims he thought the image was of him as a Red Cross doc because there "was a Red Cross worker" in the photo.
While it's true there is a doctor in the pic ... the A.I. rendering of Trump shows himself wearing a white tunic and a red shawl -- which is what Jesus is commonly depicted wearing.
President Trump just got McDonald's delivered to the White House by a "DoorDash Grandma" in a bizarre scene that Trump says "doesn't look staged, does it?"
The Prez answered the door at the White House when a DoorDasher came knocking Monday ... she carried two bags of McDonald's and told Trump he was getting all of his favorite menu items.
Trump greeted the older woman -- who was wearing a "DoorDash Grandma" shirt -- grabbed the bags and started talking to her about her tax return.
Not even Pope Leo can escape the wrath of President Trump, who excoriated the Holy Father for his views on crime and foreign policy — and a bunch of other stuff, too!
Trump posted a long-winded message on Truth Social Sunday night, kicking things off by slamming Leo for being "WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy."
Trump is also pissed at The Pontiff for criticizing him over bombing the hell out of Iran and sparking a war between the 2 countries with the help of Israel. Over the weekend, Leo implied that a "delusion of omnipotence" is behind the U.S.-Israel war against Iran.
"Saturday Night Live" unloaded on Donald Trump last night ... but honestly, nobody was safe.
The show's cold open imagined Trump -- played by James Austin Johnson -- dialing up Tiger Woods ... and immediately regretting it. Instead of talking golf, Tiger drops a bombshell about his DUI and flipping his car, and Trump basically shrugs it off like, "should’ve told them we’re friends." Tiger -- played by Kenan Thompson -- responded that he did and it didn't work! Savage.
Next up ... Melania Trump, where things go from messy to straight-up unhinged. She floats the idea of giving a random speech denying ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Trump’s response? Says it sounds "a little insane."
And last but not least -- Pete Hegseth jumps into the mix -- portrayed as a war-hungry loose cannon giving wild updates about Iran, with jokes suggesting world leaders might actually prefer bombs over more U.S. negotiations.
President Trump took a break from the conflict in Iran to enjoy some UFC battles here at home Saturday night -- and, as usual, 47 made a grand entrance inside the arena.
The Commander in Chief walked out of a tunnel with UFC boss Dana White to massive applause from the crowd at UFC 327 in Miami's Kaseya Center.
President Donald Trump berated a reporter on the White House Lawn Saturday ... telling her she doesn't know a darn thing about Iran.
POTUS spoke to several reporters waiting for him outside the White House round 5 PM ET today ... and, one asked a question about why the Strait of Hormuz isn't open yet.
Trump claims the group has been "fighting" him for years, and says he knows exactly why ... accusing them of pushing views he says are soft on Iran and completely out of step with his MAGA base.
With his signature flair, POTUS calls them "low IQs," "stupid people," and "losers," insisting they've all been booted from major platforms and are now clinging to relevance through what he dubs "third-rate podcasts."
Vice President J.D. Vance may need some divine intervention to help him on his next task ... saying he'd like to speak to the principals allegedly involved in a confrontation between the U.S. and the Vatican.
Here's the deal ... The Free Press put out a report earlier this week -- citing unnamed Vatican officials -- about a January meeting between U.S. Department of War officials and Cardinal Christophe Pierre, the Vatican's ambassador to the U.S. at the time.
Officials at the time allegedly told Pierre the Catholic Church should get on board with the Trump administration's war tactics.
Kristi Noem may have gotten the boot from the White House ... but her swanky private jet didn't!
According toWall Street Journal, the TrumpAdministration will be keeping the $70M aircraft she leased during her time as Department of Homeland Security Secretary.
Officials familiar with the matter told WSJ that Melania Trump's office will have access to the insanely lavish jet -- which is much fancier than most government planes -- as will select Cabinet secretaries.
The plane reportedly has a queen bed, showers, a kitchen, 4 flat-screen TVs and a bar ... making it nicer than Air Force Two, which just has a pullout couch bed.
President Donald Trump just announced a 2-week ceasefire with Iran, just an hour before his self-imposed deadline of bombing the country back to the "stone ages."
In a post on Truth Social, Trump writes ... "Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks. This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE!"
Well, Donald Trump is just slinging slurs in press conferences now ... speaking to reporters Monday, the President of the United States reflected on his relationship with Kim Jong Un, who he says he gets along with "very well."
While Trump claimed North Korea's supreme leader says "very nice things" about him, KJU has some harsher words for Joe Biden, saying ... "He used to call Joe Biden a 'mentally r*****ed person,' okay? So don't tell me about your stuff."
DJT then said it a second time, adding ... "He was so nasty to Joe Biden. It was terrible. But to me, he likes Trump."
Donald says the reason things are "very nice" between the U.S. and North Korea is because Kim Jong Un likes him.
President Donald Trump is firing off a major warning ... going after a journalist who reported on the high-stakes rescue mission after a U.S. fighter jet went down in Iran last week.
During a press conference Monday, Trump didn’t name names -- but the message was loud and clear, aimed straight at Axios journalist Barak Ravid-- demanding he cough up his source ... or risk jail time.
Here’s the backdrop -- U.S. forces managed to track down and rescue two service members after their F-15E Strike Eagle went down -- but Trump says the story put everything on the line ... not just the two being rescued, but the hundreds involved in pulling it off.
President Donald Trump was all about trading the world of politics for playground clout -- turning the White House lawn into his own autograph booth for a pack of hyped-up kids at an Easter egg hunt.
Honestly, it's an exceptionally ridiculous scene -- Trump ditching the heavy politics for kid duty, posted up Monday signing doodles while one super-keen kid practically shoved paper in his face ... and Trump, never missing a beat, pitching the others on flipping his autograph for $25K on eBay.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Trump signing without a little detour -- even in full family-friendly mode, he slipped back into form, taking a swipe at former President Joe Biden and telling the kids he actually signs his name ... unlike Biden and his autopen.
President Donald Trump went after the U.S. Supreme Court and birthright citizenship in a wild 1 AM rant on Truth Social.
Early Monday morning, Trump went off about SCOTUS' upcoming ruling on birthright citizenship ... where they will decide whether or not to uphold his executive order ending the 14th Amendment right.
In the late-night post, DT called birthright citizenship a "scam" and a "money making HOAX" ... saying it's "too bad" the Supreme Court justices -- three of whom he appointed himself -- aren't basing their ruling around conservative radio program "The Mark Levin Show."
President Donald Trump had a very untraditional Easter Sunday ... skipping church and hitting the greens at Trump National Golf Club instead ... all while online rumors about his health were swirling.
The 79-year-old was spotted arriving back at the White House in D.C. Sunday after spending the day at his golf club in Virginia, putting to rest social media chatter that something serious might be going on after WH officials said he'd have no public appearances Saturday.
The rumor mill went into overdrive during that quiet stretch with some corners of the Internet even pushing false claims about his health and death.
