Top 10 Most Outrageous Media Moments from Trump’s First Day in Office
Some of these instances are so ridiculous that you have to see them to believe them.
🧵 THREAD
#10 - MSNBC mocks Trump’s national emergency declaration at the border.
This is downright pathetic.
MADDOW: “Does it feel like an emergency where you are standing?”
REPORTER: “Feels no different than 20 minutes ago, or 30 minutes ago, or an hour ago when we got here early this morning.”
#9 - CNN commentators watch in awe as Barron Trump’s towering height leaves them momentarily speechless.
“Yes, he’s very tall.”
“Dana Bash—just looking at Barron Trump, I think he’s like 6’5” or something… 6’9”, I’m told.”
#8 - CNN commentator boldly declares that Trump pardoning J6ers is “completely different” than Biden pardoning the likes of Fauci, his brother, and other family members.
This spin on this take is off the charts.
“I want to put those [J6] pardons in separate buckets, and I think we should be talking about them differently because they are not all—all pardons are not created equal, in my opinion.”
#7 - CNN’s Van Jones claims Joe Biden is Mr. “America First” today and gave Trump a “pretty decent economy.”
“You wanna talk about America First? That’s Joe Biden today.”
“Joe Biden’s putting America first.”
“He’s actually giving Donald Trump not just the dignity of a good transition, he’s giving a pretty decent economy.”
“I think it’s an important moment. It’s a powerful moment. Joe Biden probably stayed too long, but he stayed too long because he thought he had more good to do.”
“He won’t get a chance to do that good, but he’s handing off a better economy than he got, and he’s doing it in a more decent way, showing more decency than he received. You want to talk about America First, that’s Joe Biden today.”
#6 - CNN’s Jake Tapper has an awkward moment on air, as he is not sure how to describe Tucker Carlson.
TAPPER: “Tucker Carlson, also the former Fox host, now popular podcaster and YouTube hoster. I’m not exactly sure what they call him, but influencer, certainly very influential.”
CO-HOST: “Very influential.”
TAPPER: “Yes, absolutely. Anderson Cooper.”

#5 - CNN host interrupts the broadcast during the Inaugural Parade to let everyone know that JD Vance’s daughter had “Bluey” bandages on.
Cutting-edge journalism right here.
ERIN BURNETT: “So those are the obviously the Butler County first responders who are marching in—”
HOST 2: “Also, Erin. One quick note because our panel, Abby Philip and Jake [Tapper], were talking about it a little bit earlier. Apparently, the bandages on JD Vance’s daughter’s fingers, her name is Mirabel, by the way, are Bluey bandages. I think your kids may be a little bit older than mine. Bluey is very popular in our house. But that’s just to put a button on an earlier conversation.”
BURNETT: “Well, it is his normalcy and approachability for JD Vance that is a great appeal for many.”
#4 - MSNBC bombards its viewers with commentary while President Trump is actively speaking.
Among all the networks broadcasting right now, MSNBC stands out as the only one silencing Trump’s address and putting it in the background.
This so-called editorial policy is aimed at maintaining “journalistic integrity.”
The network has previously expressed concerns about airing content that may contain “misinformation” or unverified claims.
#3 - CNN brings on the son of a J6 defendant who claims he had to buy a gun and flee to protect himself from his dad, whom Trump is about to pardon.
They just won’t let go of this “insurrection” narrative.
Jackson Reffitt, who reported his father to the FBI, says, “I’ve taken as many precautions as I could recently. I’ve picked up a gun, I’ve moved, and I’ve gotten myself away from what I thought would be a dangerous situation and staying where I thought my dad could find me or other people.”
He added, “My father’s actions coming from the Trump presidency and what he thought he was doing was right just destroyed it [my family]. I made a very, very disgusting decision to inform authorities about what he was doing, and I still feel horrible about it every day.
“My sisters are out there right now, and they’re rooting for him. I understand that. I come from a place of love toward them. I want to be there for them, but I can’t. It just isn’t safe for people like me who have done what I did to protect my family... I cannot feel safe around him [father].”
#2 - CNN commentator stuns the panel with a HUGE compliment for President Trump.
“There’s something about him. It’s probably the word charisma, and it’s attributable to him being elected again.”
Michael Smerconish made these comments after thinking it would be impossible for Trump to make a political return after J6.
“I would never have believed that we’d be back in this position today, as he was headed back to Florida, not having attended Joe Biden’s inaugural. And I don’t think you can attribute that solely to issues like the economy and immigration.”
#1 - CNN suggests Elon Musk made a Nazi salute during Trump's event at Capitol One arena, purposely leaves out Musk's comments when he said his heart goes out to the crowd.
CNN: "It's a salute. It was quick. I think our viewers are smart and they can take a look at that, but it certainly was, it's not something that you typically see at American political rallies."
Musk: "My heart goes out to you."

BONUS #1 - Joe Rogan, Tim Cook (Apple), Mark Zuckerberg (Meta), Shou Zi Chew (TikTok CEO), and Jeff Bezos (Amazon) were all spotted arriving at President Donald Trump’s inauguration.

BONUS #4 - Donald Trump signs a wave of game-changing executive orders in front of a crowd of tens of thousands after the Inaugural Parade.
This includes:
1. Rescinding 78 Biden-era executive actions, orders, and memoranda.
2. Implementing a regulatory freeze to halt new regulations until full control of the government is achieved.
3. Freezing federal hiring, with exceptions for the military and other specified categories.
4. Requiring all federal workers to return to full-time in-person work immediately.
5. Directing every federal department and agency to address the ongoing cost of living crisis.
6. Withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, saving over a trillion dollars.
7. Sending a letter to the United Nations to formally announce the U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement.
8. Restoring freedom of speech and preventing government censorship of free speech.
9. Ending the weaponization of government against political adversaries of the previous administration.
BONUS #5 - Trump gives his son, Barron, an epic shout-out, and Barron takes it in like a total rock star.
“Then I have a very tall son named Barron. Has anyone ever heard of him?”
“He knew the youth vote… And he was saying, Dad, you got to go out and do this [podcast] or that one.”
“He understood the market.”

In other news, Dave Chappelle recently made comments about Trump. See what he said about the president below:
An illegal alien just shot a Border Patrol agent in the face.
Now that agent is fighting for his life.
The worst part?
This violent offender had been released onto the streets FIVE TIMES before the attack.
And the numbers are beyond TERRIFYING:
Secretary Noem says violence against immigration officers is up over 830% in recent days.
Now she and Tom Homan are vowing to take the fight directly to the source....Democrat-run sanctuary cities.
🧵 THREAD
It’s a tough video to stomach.
On Saturday, July 19, an off-duty CBP officer was ambushed in New York City’s Fort Washington Park by two illegal aliens from the Dominican Republic.
The attempted robbery, caught on camera, shows the suspects approaching the officer on a moped.
Without warning, 21-year-old Miguel Francisco Mora pulled a gun and shot the officer in the face and arm.
Wounded but alert, the hero officer returned fire...hitting Mora in the chest.
Both assailants fled on the moped, but Mora didn’t get far.
Thanks to the officer’s quick response, he was later taken into custody while seeking treatment for his gunshot wound.
The officer is expected to make it, thank God.
The shooting was horrifying.
But the more disturbing part was what was revealed after.
At a press conference in New York City this morning, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed the shooter was in the country illegally....and that the Biden administration had released him back into the public after detaining him in 2023.
“We just recently in the last couple of days have had one of our own that has been attacked and has been harmed dangerously by violent criminals that have been run loose here in New York City but also in this country,” she said.
“As a result of sanctuary city policies and the policies of the Biden administration.”
According to Noem, the off-duty officer and his friend were simply walking when the attempted robbery began.
Had the officer not been carrying his weapon, she said, the outcome could’ve been far worse.
“They were attacked by two individuals that were set on robbing them and thankfully he had his service weapon with him and able to defend himself and his friend and injured one of those individuals that was trying to do them harm.”
Then she dropped the detail that stunned the room.
“One of the suspected attackers, the one that was injured, his name is Miguel Francisco Mora Nunez, a Dominican national that was entering into this country illegally back in 2023. He was then released back into this country by the Biden administration.”
This common drug can feel like a miracle in the doctor’s office, then turn into a nightmare after you leave.
You throw out your back. The pain’s awful. And your doctor gives you a steroid shot.
Boom—pain gone.
But here’s what he didn’t tell you:
That one shot could trigger weight gain, adrenal shutdown, bone loss, or something even worse.
In fact, 90% of steroid users report side effects.
Medical researcher @MidwesternDoc has seen how steroids quietly destroy health over time.
Read this before your next appointment. It could save you from lasting harm.
🧵 THREAD
First, let’s get one thing straight:
Modern medicine isn’t the only system that’s ever existed—it just violently erased the others.
What we now call “health care” is actually built on suppressing symptoms instead of healing the body.
It isn’t really health care at all… And it’s a dangerous foundation.

Doctors removed his testicle and gave him 60 days to live.
But Rick Hill refused to die.
He found a natural cancer protocol so effective, he was off morphine and gaining strength in just three weeks.
What happened next was a wake-up call.
After Rick began sharing his story, the American Cancer Society planted letters in local newspapers claiming he never had cancer because he looked too healthy for someone who had been terminal.
Why would a cancer survivor be treated like a threat?
Discover how Rick beat cancer—and why the cancer industry fought harder to silence his story than they did to cure him.
🧵 THREAD
We’re extremely passionate about bringing you the truth when it comes to your health.
Pharmaceutical companies, the media, and the medical industrial complex have been lying to us for years about wellness. And one of the biggest webs of lies they feed us is about cancer. Fifty years ago, Rick Hill was given 60 days to live by the Mayo Clinic where he was having his cancer treated.
After grueling surgery and morphine for pain management, the cancer spread throughout his entire body. With no real hope left, Rick was told about an alternative treatment that was helping a whole host of people recover—for good.
He took a risk and traveled to Tijuana for something that was not widely available previously and something that the medical industrial complex warns us about. It’s not ivermectin, and it’s not fenbendazole. It’s a combination of Laetrile, enzymes, and a few other key factors. And this treatment saved Rick’s life.
He’s now been cancer-free for 50 years because of it. Rick joins us today to tell his story and explain how this treatment is saving the lives of those experiencing aggressive forms of cancer we’re seeing right now.
Rick Hill was 24, newly married, and terminally ill. The Mayo Clinic gave him just 60 days to live, telling Rick that all of his organs were about to shut down. They offered chemotherapy—and told him to call his family to say goodbye.
Then Rick got a letter in the mail. Just one sentence, from a pastor affiliated with the John Birch Society: “If you want to live, you’re going to need to leave the Mayo Clinic.”
Rick called the pastor in disbelief. “You want me to leave the citadel of modern medicine?” he asked.
“Yeah,” the man replied. “They know all about medicine—but they don’t know much about the immune system.”
The pastor told Rick to fly to San Diego… then cross into Tijuana—as soon as possible. At first, Rick thought it was a joke. “I don’t want to drink tequila,” he said. “You want me to go eat apricots in Tijuana?”
Later that night, Rick broke the news to his family.
They stared at him in stunned silence. One brother said, “We always knew you were stupid—we just didn’t know how stupid.”
But then something unexpected happened.
“My father-in-law stood up and said, ‘I like it. I’ll take him. And I’ll help pay for it.’”
EXCLUSIVE: Top Forecaster Issues a Chilling War Prediction
Martin Armstrong says the West is baiting Putin, pushing him to strike NATO first so they can justify all-out war.
He calls it engineered chaos.
What he says happens next should terrify every US citizen.
🧵 THREAD
We recently had top forecaster and economist Martin Armstrong on the show, who warned that the fall of Ukraine—and Europe as a whole—is imminent. Many European countries, he noted, are already reinstituting drafts.
“They want war,” he said.
Well, this week we saw President Trump make a stunning reversal on the Ukraine-Russia conflict—and Armstrong is back with another warning.
He says NATO is preparing to send 250,000 troops into Russia, and World War III is an absolute certainty. The reason? Collapsing economies—and a looming push to roll out central bank digital currencies. Despite promises to the contrary, it appears the U.S. is quietly moving forward with CBDCs, just like the rest of the world.
Every nation, Armstrong warns, is preparing for what comes after the war.
He joins us now to discuss.
@zeee_media opened the conversation by asking about Trump’s unexpected shift on Ukraine—and Martin Armstrong didn’t hold back. “I’m very disappointed in Trump,” he said. “I think he’s succumbed to the neocons.”
The first major red flag, Armstrong noted, was Trump naming Marco Rubio as Secretary of State—a move his sources described as a “peace offering to the neocons.”
But Armstrong’s warning isn’t about politics. It’s about your money.
“We’re just in this serious debt crisis,” he explained—and that crisis, he warned, is pushing governments toward reckless, authoritarian measures.
He pointed to Europe, where EU chief Ursula von der Leyen proposed seizing unused assets from private citizens to fund war with Russia. Armstrong said it echoes post–World War I Germany, when the government confiscated 10% of people’s savings—triggering hyperinflation, economic ruin, and paving the way for Hitler’s rise.
“If Ursula is going to just take 10% of people's money,” he warned, “it’s the same thing all over again.”
His message was clear: this war isn’t really about Ukraine. It’s about collapsing economies—and global elites using chaos as cover to plunder the public’s wealth.
#10 - Democrat reveals Jeffrey Epstein received $1.1 BILLION in wire transfers from a SINGLE bank account.
It’s not often you see a Democrat laser-focused on Epstein.
Sen. Ron Wyden dropped the unexpected bomb. He revealed:
“4,725 wire transfers adding up to nearly $1.1 billion flowing in and out of just one of Mr. Epstein’s bank accounts. If you ask me, that is more than 4,000 potential lines of investigation right there. Hundreds of millions more flowed through other accounts.”
Let that sink in.
One account, over a billion dollars. And no one seems to know who was sending it or why.

#9 – Johnson & Johnson Lead Regulatory Scientist Admits Company’s Baby Powder Contained Heavy Metals That Caused Cancer
This was uncovered via hidden camera footage from @OKeefeMedia.
Joshua Rys admitted that the company’s baby powder wasn’t dangerous because of the talc itself, but because of toxic heavy metal impurities found in the mined product.
“It’s not the talc itself that gives you the cancer,” Rys said. “It’s the heavy metals that are in it.”
He also revealed the legal maneuver J&J used to shield itself from liability. According to Rys, the company created a shell entity specifically designed to absorb the lawsuits and then go bankrupt, leaving the parent company insulated.
This admission confirms long-standing suspicions about J&J’s legal strategy.
#8 - Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo says mRNA COVID-19 shots are “terrible vaccines” and “not fit for human use.”
“Fortunately, very few people … are putting these mRNA COVID-19 vaccines in their bodies … And they shouldn't be doing it because they are not fit for human use … They are terrible vaccines.”
To truly understand modern medicine, you must first see that the industry operates exactly like a sales funnel.
Step 1: Screen everyone.
Step 2: Redefine “normal” so millions are suddenly “sick.”
Step 3: Sell them drugs.
Step 4: Treat the inevitable side effects with more drugs.
Step 5: Repeat.
That’s not healthcare. That’s a really effective business model.
