"There's nothing better than being a mother."

During her first press briefing back at the podium, Karoline Leavitt opens up about balancing motherhood with one of the most demanding jobs in Washington, saying it takes "a village" and giving credit to her husband for being home with their babies.

"I view this as more than a job. I view this as public service on behalf of a president who I firmly believe in everything this administration is doing, and really creating a better country for my children and their future."

"There is no secret. You just have to show up every day and keep going."

According to investigative reporter Paul Sperry:

President Trump is dropping a massive bombshell in tonight’s primetime address: explosive new evidence that China interfered in the 2020 election to help Joe Biden win — including hacking state voter registration databases and stealing data on tens of thousands of voters to manufacture mail-in ballots.

The proof comes from four sets of declassified documents (releasing Friday) unearthed from suppressed FBI, CIA, and ODNI records. It reveals “alarming vulnerabilities” in election infrastructure and a massive cover-up of Beijing’s hacking and influence ops favoring Biden.

Additional bombshell: Over 100,000 non-citizens, including illegal immigrants, on U.S. voter rolls.

Today is a historic moment in the FBI’s war on fraud.

The Foreign Transfer of Custody of Abdikerm Abdelahi Eidleh brings to justice one of the alleged ringleaders of the $250 million ‘Feeding our Future’ fraud scandal out of Minnesota, where the FBI has already helped secure over 70 guilty pleas from fraudsters in partnership with the Justice Department.
