In the first hour of the evening, WarRoom, a video was shown of President Donald J. Trump delivering a wide-ranging briefing from the Oval Office, outlining his administration’s latest achievements and priorities.
He announced a new immigration initiative called the "Gold Card,” a paid pathway designed to attract the world’s most highly skilled talent while protecting American workers. Trump said the program would generate revenue for tax relief and reduce low-skilled visa intake that undercuts U.S. wages.
The president also reaffirmed his commitment to law and order, calling out violent crime in cities such as Portland and Chicago. He said federal authorities, including the National Guard if necessary, would step in where local officials fail to act.
On foreign policy, Trump highlighted his record of avoiding new wars, securing the release of hostages, and promoting peace in the Middle East. He questioned continued funding for the Ukraine conflict, emphasizing that U.S. resources must serve American interests first.
Trump also addressed media accountability, pointing to recent defamation settlements as evidence that outlets have spread falsehoods about him and his supporters. While defending free speech, he criticized dishonest reporting and called for higher journalistic standards.
The president concluded by highlighting past successes, such as Operation Warp Speed, and previewed new health policy initiatives, including autism research.
Confident and direct, Trump’s briefing combined new policy announcements with a reaffirmation of his central themes: securing borders, promoting safer communities, fostering economic growth, and putting America First.
