The White House press briefing just went completely off the rails when Press Secretary Caroline revealed a shocking chart that sent Trump into an absolute fury. What followed was the reading of Trump’s most savage letter yet to Fed Chair Jerome Powell—and the room went dead silent as she delivered his brutal message.
The chart that started it all shows something that will make every American’s blood boil: the United States, with the strongest economy in the world, is paying higher interest rates than THIRTY other countries. Switzerland pays just 0.25%. Even Cuba—CUBA—has lower rates than America. Cambodia, Japan, Denmark, Thailand, Botswana, Barbados, Taiwan, Bulgaria, Sweden, Morocco, South Korea, Algeria, Canada, Albania, Libya, Malaysia, China, New Zealand, Trinidad and Tobago, Slovakia, Bolivia, Australia, Costa Rica, the Bahamas, Kuwait, Papua New Guinea, Bosnia, and the UK all pay less than American citizens.
Then came Trump’s letter, delivered with devastating precision from the podium: "Jerome, you are as usual too late. You have cost the USA a fortune and continue to do so. You should lower the rate by a lot. Hundreds of billions of dollars are being lost, and there is no inflation." The Press Secretary didn’t stop there, revealing that Powell cut rates repeatedly for Biden but refuses to do so now when the economy is actually booming under Trump.
But this was just the beginning of an absolutely wild press conference. The bombshell announcements kept coming, starting with the revelation that tomorrow Trump will open what’s being called "Alligator Alcatraz"—a 5,000-bed detention facility in the Florida Everglades surrounded by dangerous wildlife. When asked if the alligators were intentional, the Press Secretary confirmed they’re a "design feature" to deter escapes. The facility has only one road in and the only way out is a "one-way flight" for deportation.
The shocking revelations continued as the White House announced the immediate termination of all Syria sanctions while maintaining them on Assad and Iranian proxies. They exposed CNN for promoting an app that helps people track ICE agents, leading to a 500% increase in attacks on law enforcement. Harvard University was put on blast for violating civil rights laws—Jewish students were spit on, assaulted, and forced to hide their identity while the campus was vandalized with swastikas inside Stars of David.
The Press Secretary didn’t hold back on NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani either, calling him "a Democrat socialist, really a communist" who "proudly calls to defund the police, peddles anti-Semitism, praises pro-Hamas groups, wants Israel abolished, and believes wealthy Americans should not exist." When asked if Trump could work with him, she said the president would "find it difficult to work with someone like that."
More bombshells dropped: Canada’s Prime Minister called Trump last night and completely caved on the digital services tax after Trump threatened retaliation. The White House confirmed 1.4 million illegal aliens are improperly receiving Medicaid benefits meant for American citizens. They revealed that despite 20 million illegals in the country, we only have 7,000 ICE agents to handle interior enforcement.
The Big Beautiful Bill dominated much of the briefing, with confirmation that Trump has been working the phones all weekend to get it passed. The bill includes $2 trillion in mandatory savings, will generate $4.1 trillion in economic growth, provides the largest middle-class tax cuts in history, funds the border wall, and creates the infrastructure for one million deportations per year. Every single Democrat opposes it—choosing to defend illegal aliens over American citizens.
When pressed about Senator Tillis’s criticism of the Medicaid provisions, the Press Secretary fired back that he’s wrong and noted he announced he’s no longer running for office after Trump called him out. The administration stands firm that the bill protects Medicaid for those who truly need it—pregnant women, children, seniors, and the disabled—while cutting out waste, fraud, and the 1.4 million illegals stealing benefits.
The interest rate battle with Jerome Powell reached a boiling point with reporters asking if Trump might simply fire him. The Press Secretary said that’s "a decision for him to make" while highlighting the "politicization of the Fed" and how Powell refuses to cut rates for Trump after doing so repeatedly for Biden. With inflation at historic lows thanks to Trump’s policies, there’s no excuse for keeping rates high while Americans suffer.
This press briefing will go down in history as one of the most explosive ever delivered from the White House podium. From alligator-guarded detention centers to communist mayoral candidates, from Fed Chair threats to Harvard losing federal funding, the Trump administration came out swinging on every front. The message is clear: America First isn’t just a slogan—it’s a revolution in action.
