White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt delivered a blistering response to critics following the catastrophic Texas floods that killed dozens.
Addressing the press on Monday, Leavitt accused some media outlets and Democratic leaders of spreading “depraved, disgusting lies” about the administration’s response.
She firmly rejected accusations of federal delay or negligence, saying rescue teams and emergency resources were “mobilized within hours.” The flood, which left entire communities submerged and at least 82 people dead, has ignited a new political firestorm, with critics blaming budget cuts and preparedness failures.
Leavitt dismissed the allegations as “shameful exploitation of tragedy for political gain.” Her forceful defense and condemnation of the narrative sparked immediate reactions across social media and Capitol Hill.
As floodwaters recede, the political storm is only intensifying — and Leavitt has made clear: the administration won’t stay silent.
During an August 18 meeting, President Donald Trump did not rule out sending U.S. troops to Ukraine as part of potential peace and security guarantees, signaling a major shift in his stance. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt outlined the administration’s plans and addressed questions on whether American forces might be sent to Kyiv. The comments highlight Trump’s evolving position on the Ukraine conflict, sparking debate on U.S. foreign policy, NATO commitments, and the future of America’s role in European security.

In a fiery press briefing, Leavitt ruled out "American boots on the ground" in Ukraine, firmly shutting down the possibility of direct U.S. troop deployment. But in a surprise twist, she hinted that Trump is considering aerial support — raising the prospect of U.S. jets flying near or over Russian-controlled territory.

White House Press Secretary blasted mainstream media for spreading “fake news” about U.S. negotiations with Russia and Ukraine. She accused left-leaning outlets of deliberately undermining President Trump’s efforts, arguing that many in the press have been “rooting against the President of the United States and the pursuit of peace.” The sharp rebuke underscores growing tensions between the administration and media over foreign policy narratives. As talks remain sensitive, the administration insists its focus is on achieving peace while dismissing what it calls politically motivated reporting.

The feud between Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom is intensifying as both exchange sharp attacks. Trump labeled Newsom “the man destroying California” and mocked him as “Newscum,” claiming he trails in polls. However, a new Echelon Insights survey shows Newsom surging to 13% support among Democratic voters for 2028, up from 4% in April, second only to Kamala Harris. Newsom’s aggressive strategy—directly mocking Trump on social media—has boosted his national profile, fueling speculation about his presidential ambitions.

Donald Trump sparked global outrage after praising Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a “war hero,” despite the ICC issuing an arrest warrant for alleged war crimes in Gaza. In an interview, Trump dismissed international accountability, criticizing the court for targeting Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant. Israel is also facing a genocide case at the ICJ, with over 62,000 Palestinians reported dead. Trump defended his role in freeing Israeli hostages, boasted of U.S. airstrikes on Iran, and attacked Democrats in Washington.

Donald Trump erupted in a fiery tirade at the White House, blasting Democrats as “frauds” and accusing them of loving “crime” while pledging to end mail-in voting once and for all. The outburst came just moments before his highly anticipated meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, adding an unexpected political twist to a summit already overshadowed by Russia’s escalating war in Ukraine. Trump used the platform to hammer his signature grievances—election integrity, voter fraud, and Democratic corruption—while Zelensky stood by, watching the former president’s domestic battles collide with international diplomacy. The press room buzzed as Trump declared, “We will stop mail-in voting,” promising sweeping changes if he secures another term. His remarks set the stage for a meeting that was supposed to focus on Ukraine’s survival but instead turned into a showcase of Trump’s trademark combativeness. The clash of politics and war made for an extraordinary spectacle.

California Governor Gavin Newsom has ignited a heated feud with Donald Trump over GOP-led redistricting efforts in Texas, warning of a national “map arms race.” After Democrats blocked a Republican vote in Texas, Newsom mocked Trump on social media, vowing to retaliate by redrawing California’s maps to offset Republican gains. He accused Trump of undermining democracy and urged him to pressure Texas Governor Greg Abbott to halt the plan. Critics warn Newsom’s retaliation could erode Democrats’ moral stance on fair redistricting.

The United States has signaled a dramatic shift in its Ukraine policy, with Politico reporting that Washington plans to play only a minimal role in Kyiv’s long-term security guarantees. U.S. Defense Policy Undersecretary Elbridge Colby told European counterparts during Aug. 19 talks that the burden of ensuring Ukraine’s safety will fall on Europe, not America. The news follows President Donald Trump’s high-profile meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House. Despite Trump boasting of progress in peace negotiations, he made clear that U.S. troops will not be deployed in Ukraine to uphold any deal. European leaders, alarmed by the prospect of carrying the bulk of responsibility, fear being left “back to spring’s coalition of the willing.” As NATO prepares for further discussions, Trump has floated a trilateral summit with Putin and Zelensky to seal a potential settlement.

Elon Musk’s much-hyped new political party has reportedly stalled just two months after its launch. Sources say Musk is retreating amid GOP pushback, fearing damage to ties with Republican leadership, especially VP JD Vance. The Tesla billionaire has suspended meetings, distanced himself from allies like Andrew Yang, and shifted focus back to Republican politics. Despite once pledging millions for his own party, Musk may now redirect support toward Vance’s 2028 White House run. Critics argue Musk lacks the credibility and infrastructure to build a lasting third-party force.

U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fiery attack on Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), calling her “Low (Very!!!) I.Q.” and challenging her to take a cognitive exam. In a scathing Truth Social post, Trump compared Crockett to members of the progressive “AOC Plus Three” squad and claimed she was “only slightly dumber.”
He boasted about “acing” his own test during a recent physical at a military hospital, alleging Democrats would “fail” in “a spectacular show of stupidity and incompetence.” Crockett, a vocal Trump critic, recently called him a “piece of s---” during a public event, drawing national headlines. The feud comes as Texas Republicans push to redraw congressional districts in their favor.
