Trump LIVE: Musk slams Pentagon critic who mocked his ultimatum to federal workers

The French president has arrived to participate in a G7 Leadership Summit call with Trump.

They’ll be speaking together later.

The president’s move to take control of Washington’s John F Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts has reportedly led to a staggering 50 percent drop in ticket sales.

I don’t know what else he thought was going to happen.

Here’s more from Graeme Massie.

The president has nominated Lt. Gen. Dan “Razin” Caine to be the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, after firing General Charles Q Brown Jr on Friday.

“Today, I am honored to announce that I am nominating Air Force Lieutenant General Dan ‘Razin’ Caine to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“General Caine is an accomplished pilot, national security expert, successful entrepreneur, and a ‘warfighter’ with significant interagency and special operations experience.”

Here’s Katie Hawkinson with everything we know about Caine – and his relationship with Trump.

In case you missed this one over the weekend, Kash Patel is going to be kept pretty busy, managing the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) on an acting basis as well as the FBI.

While we’re back on Musk, here’s James Liddell with more on his subsequent moves to downplay his weekend email.

The president’s ever-busy daughter-in-law made her debut on Fox this weekend and called in a few favors from the administration for her opening episode, interviewing Trump’s press secretary, director of national intelligence and attorney general.

Here they are knocking softballs out of the park:

He’s not sounding any less mad writing in all caps like this – and “without witch”?

Update: He’s since deleted and reposted the above with that typo corrected.

Shouldn’t he be prepping for Macron?

Migrants who once risked their lives traversing the jungles of the Darien Gap in search of asylum in the U.S. are now returning to their home countries.

After Trump’s crackdown on asylum policies, many migrants, primarily from Venezuela and Colombia, have abandoned their attempts to reach North America.

According to authorities, this has resulted in a “reverse flow” of migrants.

Speedboats are now transporting them from Panama back to Colombia, navigating the dense jungle rivers near the border.

I think it’s fair to say Minnesota Democrat Tina Smith was not impressed by the billionaire’s email antics over the weekend.

Katie Hawkinson has her scathing response.
