Trump Brings Back Brutal School Fitness Test Banned by Obama — Kids Face Push-ups, Mile Runs & More!

President Donald Trump has officially brought back the original Presidential Fitness Test for American public schools. The test, which includes pull-ups, push-ups, a one-mile run, a shuttle run, and flexibility drills, was discontinued in 2012 by President Obama in favor of a less intense health-focused program. Now, over a decade later, Trump says it's time to "make America fit again" — but not everyone agrees. Is this a return to discipline — or outdated physical pressure for kids?

Trump Declares War on ‘Woke AI'—Executive Orders to Kill DEI, Slash Regulations, Build U.S AI Empire

In a fiery appearance at the AI Summit in Washington, Donald Trump signed a sweeping set of executive orders targeting what he called “woke Marxist lunacy” embedded in artificial intelligence. Trump vowed to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) from all federally supported AI development and accused the Biden administration of poisoning tech innovation with "toxic ideology." The executive orders fast-track data center construction by gutting environmental protections, eliminate DEI from procurement guidelines, and demand that federal AI models reflect "truth, fairness, and strict impartiality." Trump’s message was clear: America must lead the world in AI—and without the politics of the left. Is this the beginning of an AI revolution—or a rollback of rights? #Trump #WokeAI #AIExecutiveOrder #AmericaFirstAI #DEIBan #ArtificialIntelligence #AIRegulation #BigTech #TrumpSpeech #TechPolicy #USPolitics #AIReform #Trump2025 #BreakingNews #WokeTech ~HT.178~PR.274~ED.102~GR.124~
