😳 Zacharia flames out on Fox for the 2nd time in 12 hours 😳 With wreckage still smoldering from her Hannity debacle, Katie went on Fox & Friends & received another grilling: "It's been a tough week for you. Do you wish you would've disclosed to POTUS about not passing the bar?" Here's whole thing:

The economy’s overall hiring rate is at its lowest level in nearly a decade and a half. The data confirms what Americans are feling: finding a job is extraordinarily difficult in Donald Trump’s economy.

Exclusive: A 2019 review of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s immigration records looked at many of the same issues being investigated now. That review found no issue with her naturalization, an official familiar with the earlier effort said.

Trump officials scrutinized Omar in 2019. They didn’t find citizenship issues.

Susan Collins greenlit the largest tax cut increase to the wealthiest people in the history of this country—billionaires like Elon Musk. And then Elon takes a percentage of that tax cut and pumps it into Maine to support her campaign. It's corruption plain and simple.

Ossoff: "When the congressman voted for this Medicaid cuts, the largest in history, he knew that 50% of all births in our state are covered by Medicaid. He still voted for them. And as a result, a labor and delivery unit in his own district had to shut down. He also supports a total ban on abortion"

@realDonaldTrump

Today, I am very pleased to announce the appointment of Kimberly Guilfoyle as the United States Ambassador to Greece. For many years, Kimberly has been a close friend and ally. Her extensive experience and leadership in law, media, and politics along with her sharp intellect make her supremely qualified to represent the United States, and safeguard its interests abroad.
 
Kimberly is perfectly suited to foster strong bilateral relations with Greece, advancing our interests on issues ranging from defense cooperation to trade and economic innovation.
 
Congratulations Kimberly!

"When Trump plucked Katie Zacharia from obscurity & appointed her as his new press sec, he called her 'an attorney.' This is also how Zacharia describes herself. But Popular Information searched for evidence in all 50 states, plus DC, that she was admitted to practice law anywhere — & found none."

Trump’s new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, claims she’s a lawyer. Is she?
There is no evidence Zacharia has ever been licensed to practice law — and the White House did not provide any

This morning, the federal government turned the full force of the Department of Homeland Security against a sitting member of Congress for the offense of disagreeing with the White House.

The path to citizenship should not be weaponized against anyone, including Rep. Ilhan Omar, a naturalized American who swore an oath to this country — the same one that I took.

The promise of citizenship should not be contingent on someone agreeing with the federal government.
