Full White House statement on Trump’s visit to Corpus Christi:

As President Donald J. Trump travels to Corpus Christi, Texas, today, he returns to a state that is thriving under Republican leadership — powered by American energy dominance, bold tax relief, secure borders, and massive private sector investments.

Under President Trump, Texas families are seeing real results in lower costs, higher wages, safer streets, and more jobs — with much more to come as the Trump Administration works tirelessly to repair the damage of the Biden era.

Lower energy costs are putting money back in Texans’ pockets.

Tax relief is boosting take-home pay for Texas families.

1) Thanks to President Trump’s and Republicans’ Working Families Tax Cuts Act, the average Texas family is saving $4,009 on their taxes this year.
2) Texans stand to see wages rise by up to $6,900 per person over the next several years.
3)Tax reforms will protect 580,000 Texas jobs in the coming years.
4)Texas is receiving an investment of more than $281 million in rural health care thanks to Republicans — strengthening communities across the state.

It’s becoming more affordable to live in Texas.

  • Overall, the average home price in Texas is down 2.4% over the past year.
  • Texas is home to three of the top 20 metro areas with the largest number of illegal aliens — all of which have seen homes become more affordable amid President Trump’s mass deportation agenda.
    • In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, the median home listing price is down nearly 4% over the past year.
    • In the Houston metro area, the median home listing price is down 3% over the past year.
    • In the Austin metro area, the median home listing price is down 8% over last year.
  • Rent prices are falling in cities across Texas, including Austin (the “sharpest decline” among large metro areas), San Antonio, Waco, McAllen, Brownsville, Corpus Christi, Dallas, Houston, El Paso, and more.

The Trump Administration has taken thousands of dangerous criminal illegal aliens off Texas’s streets.

  • Just last week, an illegal alien with a conviction for bodily injury to a child under 12-years-old and an illegal alien with a conviction for aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon were arrested in Harris County.
  • Last weekend, an illegal alien from Mexico with a conviction for indecency with a child was arrested in Tarrant County and an illegal from Grenada with a conviction for indecent assault was arrested in Houston.

Major investments are creating jobs and economic opportunity across the state, with companies committing billions to Texas projects.

  • Just this week, MP Materials announced a new $1.25 billion rare earth magnet manufacturing campus in Northlake — expected to create over 1,500 new jobs.
  • Apple announced it is shifting some production of its Mac Mini to Texas.
  • FiberLight is investing nearly $500 million for high-capacity network infrastructure in West Texas.
  • Google is investing $40 billion in Texas, including energy initiatives and new generation capacity.
  • Abbott Laboratories is investing hundreds of millions in manufacturing and research, including plans to add 100 jobs at its Irving facility.
  • Texas Instruments is investing more than $60 billion across three manufacturing mega-sites in Texas and Utah, supporting more than 60,000 new U.S. jobs.
  • Nvidia pledged to produce $500 billion in AI infrastructure in the U.S. over the next four years, with plans to build two factories in Texas.
  • CesiumAstro is bringing a $500 million expansion, including more than 500 new jobs, to Bee Cave.
  • NRG Energy is investing $617 million to erect a new natural gas facility at its Greens Bayou plant in Houston.
  • Eli Lilly announced a $6.5 billion manufacturing facility in Houston — bringing 615 new, high-wage jobs to the area.

WATCH: Trump Says US “Could Very Well End Up Having a Friendly Takeover of Cuba” – “They’re in Big Trouble”

Donald Trump speaks to the press on the White House lawn as a helicopter prepares for departure in the background.

President Trump on Friday suggested a “friendly takeover” of Cuba could be underway as his administration squeezes the Cuban government with an oil blockade. 

While speaking to reporters as he departed the White House to deliver remarks on energy in Corpus Christi, Texas, Trump floated the idea of a takeover.

“Maybe we’ll have a friendly takeover of Cuba,” Trump said. “We could very well end up having a friendly takeover of Cuba.”

“They’re in big trouble,” Trump continued. “You know, we have people living here that want to go back to Cuba, and they’re very happy with what’s going on.”

WATCH:

Trump: No money, they have no anything right now, but they’re talking with us, and maybe we’ll have a friendly takeover of Cuba. We could very well end up having a friendly takeover of Cuba. After many, many years, we’ve had a lot of years of dealing with Cuba, I’ve been hearing about Cuba since I’m a little boy.

But they’re in big trouble, and we could very well– something could, I think, very positive for the people that were expelled or worse from Cuba that live here. You know, we have people living here that want to go back to Cuba, and they’re very happy with what’s going on.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, last month, Trump signed an executive order to declare a national emergency and establish a tariff system to levy tariffs on any country that provides oil to Cuba.

The order points to Cuba’s “extraordinary actions that harm and threaten the United States” and alignment with US adversaries.

After signing the order, Trump described Cuba as “a failed nation” that “will not be able to survive.”

This came after numerous threats against Cuba, and reports suggesting that Cuba could be Trump’s next target for regime change following the capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro last month.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has also suggested that Cuba will face the same fate as Venezuela, saying the Cuban regime is “in a lot of trouble.”

BREAKING: Bill Clinton Testifies Under Oath That Trump Was Not Involved with Epstein: Comer

James Comer, House Oversight Chairman, speaks at a press conference in Chappaqua, NY, addressing topics related to a recent deposition involving Hillary Clinton.

James Comer, House Oversight Chairman, speaks at a press conference in Chappaqua, NY, addressing topics related to a recent deposition involving Hillary Clinton.

Bill Clinton is testifying before the House Oversight Committee on his connections to Jeffrey Epstein.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer told reporters that Bill Clinton testified that to his knowledge President Trump was not involved with Epstein.

“Trump has never said anything to me to make me think he was involved with Epstein,” Comer said.

WATCH:

On Friday morning, House Oversight Chairman James Comer said that Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s jet dubbed ‘Lolita Express’ 27 times. Comer also said that Epstein visited the Clinton White House 17 times.

Clinton was all over the Epstein files. Numerous photos shows Bill Clinton with alleged Epstein sex-trafficking victims.

Despite the overwhelming evidence of Clinton’s connections to Epstein, the former president remained defiant in his opening statement and insisted he did nothing wrong in his opening statement.

“First, I had no idea of the crimes Epstein was committing,” Clinton said.

“No matter how many photos you show me, I have two things that at the end of the day matter more than your interpretation of those 20-year-old photos. I know what I saw, and more importantly, what I didn’t see,” Clinton said.

“I know what I did, and more importantly, what I didn’t do,” he added. “I saw nothing, and I did nothing wrong.”

“As someone who grew up in a home with domestic abuse, not only would I not have flown on his plane if I had any inkling of what he was doing — I would have turned him in myself and led the call for justice for his crimes, not sweetheart deals,” Clinton added.

Bill Clinton also defended his wife Hillary.

“I have to get personal. You made Hillary come in. She had nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. Nothing. She has no memory of even meeting him,” he said.

President Trump earlier Friday defended Bill Clinton.

“I don’t like seeing him deposed, but they certainly went after me a lot more than that,” Trump said.

WATCH LIVE: President Trump Delivers Remarks on Energy in Corpus Christi, Texas Ahead of March 3 Primary – RINO John Cornyn Traveling with Trump (3:35 PM CT)

President Trump delivers remarks at 100-day celebration rally in Warren, Michigan

President Trump will deliver remarks on energy tonight at the Port of Corpus Christi, Texas, ahead of the March 3 Primary Elections next week. 

Trump has not yet made an official endorsement in the three-way GOP US Senate primary between Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, RINO Senator John Cornyn, and US Rep. Wesley Hunt. Still, Cornyn was invited to join the President to travel on Air Force One, per the White House’s guest list. Senator Ted Cruz, Rep. Lance Gooden, Rep. Michael Cloud, President of the National Border Patrol Council  Paul Perez, and actor Dennis Quaid were also on the flight to Texas.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Ken Paxton attended Trump’s State of the Union speech on Tuesday as a guest of Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX), who argued that Trump’s silence in the race is an endorsement of Paxton to replace Cornyn. “When you don’t endorse a 24-year incumbent, what does that say to you?” he said to reporters.

The White House released a statement on Friday, highlighting Trump’s American energy agenda in Texas, where gas prices, home prices, and rent prices are down, and hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested in Texas manufacturing.

“Today, he returns to a state that is thriving under Republican leadership — powered by American energy dominance, bold tax relief, secure borders, and massive private sector investments,” the statement read.

“Under President Trump, Texas families are seeing real results in lower costs, higher wages, safer streets, and more jobs — with much more to come as the Trump Administration works tirelessly to repair the damage of the Biden era.”

Prior to speaking, the President is receiving an “Energy Briefing,” per the White House.

This comes after Energy Secretary Chris Wright approved an expansion of 12% for Cheniere Energy’s Corpus Christi liquefied natural gas (LNG) Terminal to export more LNG on Thursday.

The President is scheduled to begin speaking at 3:35 pm ET.

Block CEO Jack Dorsey Announces 4,000 Layoffs Due to AI, Stock Surges as Result

The age of AI is in full swing, but for some workers, it is ushering in uncertainty rather than opportunity.

Jack Dorsey, founder of Twitter and now CEO of Block, has announced that Block will lay off nearly half its employees to implement more AI tools across its tech platforms.

Block, which owns Cash App and Square, will cut 4,000 employees, which makes up 40% of its employees.

In a memo issued by Dorsey, he wrote, “We’re reducing our organization by nearly half, from over 10,000 people to just under 6,000.”

Block CFO Amrita Ahuja followed up on Dorsey’s memo by adding, “We see an opportunity to move faster with smaller, highly talented teams using AI to automate more work.”

Per The New York Times:

Block, the financial technology company that owns Square, Cash App and Tidal, said on Thursday that it was cutting 40 percent of its work force as it embraced new artificial intelligence tools.

About 4,000 employees are expected to lose their jobs, Jack Dorsey, the company’s top executive, said in a social media post.

The cuts, made as Block reported strong financial results for its most recent quarter, are perhaps the most striking example so far of a technology company’s making plans to eliminate employees because of A.I.

Mr. Dorsey wrote in his post that he wanted to act decisively rather than “cut gradually over months or years as this shift plays out.”

Despite Block announcing cuts, Wall Street saw the move as a buy signal, and stocks surged 20%.

Harvard Business Review reported that CEOs from Fortune 500 companies, such as Ford, Salesforce, Amazon, and JPMorgan Chase, have stated that in the near future, many white-collar jobs at their companies will be replaced with AI.

LEAKED List Exposes Elite Shadow Network…

A leaked membership list from the secretive Bohemian Grove exposes over 2,000 elite power brokers, including prominent Hollywood figures and political insiders, raising alarming questions about what influence is truly being brokered behind closed doors at this male-only retreat.

Secretive Elite Organization Exposed

The Bohemian Club operates a sprawling 2,700-acre retreat in Sonoma County, Northern California, where America’s most powerful men gather annually for two weeks of networking and ceremony. This male-only organization has maintained extreme secrecy for decades, hosting an infamous “Cremation of Care” ritual and organizing members into exclusive camps resembling fraternities. The club’s spokesperson explicitly denied maintaining membership lists due to the organization’s highly private nature, yet a detailed roster containing over 2,000 names surfaced publicly. This contradiction undermines the club’s credibility and exposes the lengths these elites go to hide their associations from everyday Americans who deserve transparency from those wielding power.

Power Players and Political Connections

The leaked roster reads like a who’s who of America’s power structure, naming entertainment moguls, Silicon Valley billionaires, and political heavyweights. Former late-night host Conan O’Brien appears alongside billionaire Michael Bloomberg, Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Paul Pelosi—husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi—and conservative donor Charles Koch. Historical members include Presidents Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and media icon Walter Cronkite. This concentration of influence in one secretive organization raises legitimate concerns about accountability and whether decisions affecting ordinary Americans are being shaped at exclusive gatherings where transparency doesn’t exist. The presence of both Republican and Democrat figures suggests bipartisan elite networking that transcends public political theater.

Journalist Breakthrough Contradicts Official Denials

Independent journalist Daniel Boguslaw obtained the alleged membership list after persistent outreach to a Bay Area-based club member, demonstrating the investigative tenacity required to pierce the veil of elite secrecy. A club member subsequently confirmed the list’s authenticity to another outlet, directly contradicting the Bohemian Club’s official denial of maintaining such records. This discrepancy highlights a troubling pattern where powerful organizations publicly claim one thing while operating differently behind closed doors. The New York Post reported the leaked roster, bringing these connections into public view despite the club’s efforts to maintain absolute confidentiality. For conservatives who value transparency and accountability from those in positions of power, this leak represents a rare victory in exposing the networks that operate beyond public scrutiny.

Questions About Influence and Accountability

The Bohemian Grove gathering has long been the subject of speculation regarding what business, political, and cultural decisions are made during these exclusive retreats. The leaked membership list intensifies scrutiny around who attends and what influence is brokered without public oversight or accountability. This concentration of power among elites who meet privately contradicts the principles of transparent governance that conservatives champion. When billionaires, tech executives, Hollywood figures, and political operatives from both parties convene in secret, ordinary Americans have every right to question whether these gatherings serve the public interest or merely consolidate elite control. The club’s extreme efforts to maintain secrecy suggest an awareness that public knowledge of their activities and membership would invite legitimate criticism and demands for accountability.

Elite Secrecy Challenged in Digital Age

This leak demonstrates that maintaining absolute secrecy has become increasingly difficult in the digital age, even for organizations with vast resources and powerful members. The Bohemian Club’s inability to prevent this disclosure suggests potential erosion of their confidentiality protocols and raises questions about what other information might surface. For Americans frustrated with globalist elites operating beyond public accountability, this exposure offers a rare glimpse into exclusive networks that shape policy and culture while claiming not to maintain records of their own membership. The contradiction between the club’s official denials and the confirmed leaked roster undermines trust and validates concerns about transparency. As pressure mounts for elite organizations to operate more openly, this leak may force changes to membership protocols or increased public scrutiny of influence-brokering activities that affect all Americans.

Pro-Trump Attorneys Reportedly In Talks With White House to Get Trump to Declare National Emergency Giving Him ‘Sweeping Powers’ Over Elections – Team Trump Responds

Pro-Trump lawyers are reportedly trying to persuade President Trump and his team to go all-out to secure America’s elections this year by invoking an unprecedented executive order, and they may soon get their wish.

As The Daily Mail reported, attorneys with ties to Trump are talking with the White House over an election plan, citing “an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States.”

From The Daily Mail:

Attorneys close to Donald Trump are urging the President to declare a national emergency that would allow him to take sweeping powers over the crucial midterm elections.

Peter Ticktin, who has known Trump since they attended New York Military Academy together and represented him in court, is part of a group of pro-Trump lawyers in communication with the White House over the election plan.

He and his allies argue in a 17-page draft of a presidential executive order that supposed Chinese interference in the 2020 presidential election allows Trump to declare such an emergency.

‘There is now clear and compelling evidence from court cases and forensic analysis that these threats have not been mitigated but instead have intensified,’ the draft reads. ‘This constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States.’

As The Mail notes, this order would allow President Trump to mandate voter ID nationwide, ban vote-by-mail, and require ballots to be counted by hand.

ABC News reports that Trump has reviewed the order, and the lawyers expect executive action soon.

This news also comes as the SAVE Act, a critical election security bill Trump is backing, has stalled in the Senate thanks to a handful of RINOS sabotaging the MAGA movement in its quest to stop Democrats from stealing any more federal elections.

A White House official responded to the report about an election executive order, telling ABC that “a variety of outside advocates who want to share their policy ideas with the President. Any speculation about policies the President may or may not announce is just that — speculation.”

White House Deputy Press Secretary Abigail Jackson also issued a non-denial when asked for comment.

“President Trump is committed to ensuring that Americans have full confidence in the administration of elections, and that includes totally accurate and up-to-date voter rolls free of errors and unlawfully registered non-citizen voters,” Jackson told The Washington Post.

“The President has urged Congress to pass the SAVE Act and other legislative proposals that would establish a uniform standard of photo ID for voting, prohibit no-excuse mail-in voting, and end the practice of ballot harvesting,” she added.

One question that remains unanswered is how such an order can survive legal challenges. Changes to voting laws have generally been implemented via the legislative process.

One exception to this rule was during COVID, when states ignored their own constitutions to push mass mail-in voting via executive action in some cases.

But Ticktin remains undeterred, citing the critical moment our nation faces.

“We have a situation where the President is aware that there are foreign interests that are interfering in our election processes,” Ticktin explained to The Washington Post. “That causes a national emergency where the President has to be able to deal with it.”

“That causes a national emergency where the President has to be able to deal with it.”

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, Via U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has urged staffers at the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem to leave today.

In an email sent out to staff at the U.S. embassy, Huckabee wrote, “Those wishing to take AD (Authorized Departure) should do so TODAY.”

Huckabee further wrote, “While there may be outbound flights over the coming days, there may not be.”

The Ambassador’s announcement comes as tension with Iran has increased in recent weeks, as the U.S. military has built up its largest force of warships and aircraft in the Middle East since the Iraq War.

Per AP:

The U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem implemented “authorized departure” status for non-essential personnel and family members, which means that eligible staffers can leave the country voluntarily at government expense.

The U.S. Embassy in Israel on Friday told its staff that it could leave the country and urged anyone considering departure to do so immediately.

In an email U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee urged staff considering departure to do so quickly, advising them to to focus initially on getting any flight out of Israel and to then make their way to Washington.

“Those wishing to take AD should do so TODAY,” Huckabee wrote, using an acronym for “authorized departure.”

Huckabee’s statement came shortly after Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced he is scheduled to visit Israel on Monday regarding matters relating to Iran and the 20-Point Peace Plan for Gaza.

The U.S. Embassy is not the only embassy calling for its citizens to depart the region.

Reuters reported that China, on Friday, urged its citizens in Iran to evacuate immediately, citing escalating tensions between the United States and Iran.

Vice President JD Vance, on Thursday, told The Washington Post on the topic of potential armed conflict with Iran, shared, “I think we all prefer the diplomatic option, but it really depends on what the Iranians do and what they say.”

Last Thursday, President Trump threatened to escalate military tensions with Iran within the next ten days if they don’t make a deal regarding deconstructing their nuclear enrichment program.

The 10-day warning Trump gave will end on March 1.

Comer, House Oversight Committee Members Say Hillary Repeatedly Deferred to Her Husband, Screamed and Was Unhinged During Epstein Deposition (VIDEO)

Hillary Clinton participates in a panel discussion, seated at a table with water pitchers, alongside two other speakers.

House Oversight Committee members on Friday said Hillary Clinton was totally out of control during her deposition during remarks to reporters ahead of Bill Clinton’s testimony on Friday.

Chairman James Comer said Hillary Clinton deferred to her husband more than 10 times.

“When asked questions related to Epstein and Maxwell, Hillary Clinton deferred to her husband nearly a dozen times,” Comer said.

“Today, former President Bill Clinton is sitting down with the House Oversight Committee and answering questions under oath,” Comer added.

Congresswoman Nancy Mace said Hillary Clinton was screaming and unhinged during her testimony on Epstein and the transcript will prove it.

The transcript and video of Hillary Clinton’s deposition will likely be released on Friday.

“You’ll see how she responded. Screaming…she was unhinged. I hope President Clinton is less unhinged today than his wife was yesterday,” Mace said.

WATCH:

All hell broke loose on Thursday after a photo of Hillary Clinton mid-testimony leaked to conservative podcast host Benny Johnson.

The photo was provided by Congresswoman Lauren Boebert.

Hillary Clinton left the room over the leaked photo of her mid-testimony and when she came back, she sparred with Chairman Comer, according to MSNOW.

A crowd of people gathers inside a church with stained glass windows, engaging in conversation and using smartphones.

Update: 30 more people were arrested in connection with the Don Lemon Minnesota church storming case.

A superseding indictment was returned on Friday in the Don Lemon Minnesota church siege case.

The superseding indictment is currently under seal, however, local media is reporting that at least nine more people were taken into federal custody and charged on Friday.

It is unclear who was arrested. The names have not been released.

Kare11 reported:

KARE 11 confirmed at least nine more people were arrested in connection with a St. Paul church protest last month that already saw the high-profile arrests of journalists Georgia Fort and Don Lemon, as well as attorney and activist Nekima Levy Armstrong.

KARE’s Lou Raguse said sources reported those arrested were taken to the federal courthouse in St. Paul, where they’re expected to make their first court appearances Friday afternoon.

As of 9:30 a.m., officials had not released any identifying information about those arrested.

Lemon, Fort, Armstrong, and several other activists were taken into custody by federal authorities and subsequently released in the days following the protest. At least five of them have now pleaded not guilty to federal civil rights charges.

At least nine people, including former CNN host Don Lemon were previously charged with 18 USC 241, Conspiracy to Deprive Rights and 18 USC 248, Violation of the FACE Act.

Read the indictment here.

The indictment said Don Lemon “oppressed, threatened, and intimidated the Church’s congregants and pastors by physically occupying most of the main aisle and rows of chairs near the front of the Church, engaging in menacing and threatening behavior…”

The indictment also alleges Don Lemon “physically obstructed” congregants as they “attempted to exit and/or move about within the Church.”

Last month, Don Lemon livestreamed as anti-ICE protestors stormed a church in St. Paul because the pastor supposedly worked for ICE.

“This is the beginning of what’s going to happen here,” Lemon said as anti-ICE protestors shouted down the pastor and harassed parishioners.

Don Lemon pleaded not guilty to the charges.
