Donald Trump delivered his first address to Congress since returning to power, declaring, *"America is back,"* while defending his sweeping policies amid loud opposition from Democrats. Speaking for over an hour and 40 minutes, Trump’s speech became the longest presidential address to lawmakers, surpassing Bill Clinton’s 2000 State of the Union record. Throughout his speech, Trump praised billionaire advisor Elon Musk, applauding his efforts to overhaul the federal bureaucracy. Musk, present in the chamber, received standing ovations from Republican lawmakers when Trump mentioned his contributions. The speech also covered key issues, including trade, immigration, and foreign policy, with Trump proclaiming progress on Ukraine. However, tensions flared early on. Protests erupted just minutes into the speech when Democratic Representative Al Green interrupted Trump, criticizing his stance on healthcare. Green, who has long opposed Trump, refused to back down and even shook his walking stick at the president. His actions led to his removal from the chamber, as Republicans cheered.
Despite the protests, Trump's speech resonated strongly with his supporters, reinforcing his administration’s agenda and rallying his party around his vision for the country’s future.

The White House Correspondents' Dinner this year was missing key figures and moments, marking an offbeat, lackluster evening. President Trump, who skipped the event as usual, left no surprise. But the true shock came when comedian Amber Ruffin, the originally planned entertainer, was fired after sharp political commentary, leaving the dinner without its comedic edge. The event, once a venue for bold speeches and satire, became a more somber affair, with journalists recognizing each other's work in a vacuum, devoid of the critical jabs and humor that once defined it.

After meetings in D.C., JD Vance joined Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni for an Easter lunch in Rome. Meloni, who praised her "fantastic" White House meeting, reaffirmed her support for Trump’s stance against "woke ideology." Trump, who has been critical of the EU, made an exception for Meloni, his only invited EU leader in January. Meloni is pushing for U.S. tariffs on the EU to be reduced, promising increased gas purchases and Italian investments in the U.S. Trump accepted her invitation to meet European leaders in Rome, but no date has been set.
