White House Hangs Defiant Trump Portrait, Moves Obama’s Painting to Make Room | Watch

In a bold move, the White House replaced Barack Obama’s portrait in the Grand Foyer with a dramatic new painting of Donald Trump. The artwork depicts Trump bloodied but defiant, moments after surviving an assassination attempt in 2024. Created by Marc Lipp and donated by school safety advocate Andrew Pollack, the image captures Trump’s resilience and has been placed in a traditionally prestigious space. While critics noted the protocol shift, the Obama portrait remains on display elsewhere, ensuring no break in tradition while spotlighting Trump’s symbolic comeback. #TrumpPortrait #WhiteHouseArt #TrumpVsObama #ObamaPortraitMoved #TrumpAssassinationAttempt #TrumpPainting #GrandFoyer #PoliticalArt #MarcLipp #AndrewPollack #MeadowPollack #ParklandShooting #Trump2024 #TrumpDefiant #AmericanFlag #ButlerPA #WhiteHouseUpdate #PresidentialPortraits #ObamaArt #EastWing ~HT.178~GR.121~ED.102~

Trump Scraps Obama-Biden Era Water Limits, Says ‘I Need to Wash My Beautiful Hair!’

Former President Donald Trump rolled back an Obama-Biden era rule limiting showerheads to 2.5 gallons per minute, calling the regulation “ridiculous.” During his White House tenure, Trump joked about the low water pressure affecting his ability to shower and wash his “beautiful hair.” The move was part of his sweeping deregulation campaign and extended to toilets, dishwashers, and more. Supporters see it as a win for personal freedom, while critics warn it could waste water and raise energy bills. Biden later reinstated the original rule after taking office. #Trump #ShowerheadRule #WaterFlow #Deregulation #TrumpSpeech #EnvironmentalPolicy #EnergyUse #ObamaEra #BathroomPolitics #TrumpAdministration #CleanEnergy #HighFlow #WhiteHouse #EnergyBill #PersonalFreedom #HomeAppliances #TrumpJokes #RegulationRollback #Biden #EcoFriendly #WaterConservation #ClimatePolicy #PublicPolicy #ShowerPressure #TrumpVsBiden #TrumpHair #EnergyDebate #EnvironmentalImpact #HouseholdAppliances #TrumpByte #HotTake Also Read Trump Praises Chinese Counterpart Xi Jinping Amid US-China Tariff Standoff, Calls Him 'Very Smart Man' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-praises-chinese-counterpart-xi-jinping-amid-us-china-tariff-standoff-calls-him-very-smart-ma-4120019.html?ref=DMDesc Asia Shares Jump After US Stocks Soared To Historic Gains When Trump Paused Most Of His Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/asia-shares-jump-after-us-stocks-soared-to-historic-gains-when-trump-paused-most-of-his-tariffs-4119859.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Delays Tariffs for Some, Slaps China Hard: Full List of Countries With Revised Tariff Rates :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-delays-tariffs-for-some-slaps-china-hard-full-list-of-countries-with-revised-tariff-rates-4119833.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~

Trump HUMILIATES CNN’s Kaitlan Collins In Front of President Bukele | ‘You’re A LOW-RATED Anchor’

During a high-stakes White House meeting with El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele, Donald Trump publicly insulted CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins, calling her a “low-rated anchor” as she pressed him on the wrongful deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Trump mocked both Collins and CNN, claiming the network “hates our country” and “hides border data.” While Collins stayed firm, demanding accountability, Trump pivoted to attacking the media again—reviving his long-running feud. Bukele praised Trump’s border policy but sidestepped questions on returning Garcia. The moment highlights Trump’s ongoing war with the press. #Trump #KaitlanCollins #CNN #MediaWar #TrumpVsMedia #Bukele #WhiteHouse #DeportationCase #Immigration #KilmarAbregoGarcia #BorderPolicy #FakeNews #TrumpPressConference #USPolitics #NewsDrama #MediaAccountability #TrumpRhetoric #CNNNews #PresidentialInsults #PressFreedom #Journalism #Trump2025 #TrumpSpeech #BukeleMeeting #TrumpMocking #TrumpVsCNN #TrumpNews #GarciaCase #KAITrump #NewsFlash #MediaClash Also Read Trump Administration Freezes USD 2.2 Billion In Grants To Harvard University :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-administration-freezes-usd-2-2-billion-in-grants-to-harvard-university-4124075.html?ref=DMDesc US Teen Nikita Casap Accused Of Killing Parents To Fund Plot To Assassinate Donald Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-teen-nikita-casap-accused-of-killing-parents-to-fund-plot-to-assassinate-donald-trump-4123199.html?ref=DMDesc US President Trump Is Now A Comic Book Villain In Canada, Elon Musk Is His Sidekick :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-trump-is-now-a-comic-book-villain-in-canada-elon-musk-is-his-sidekick-4120951.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.410~

Trump Freezes $2bn Harvard Funding After University Defies White House Antisemitism Demands

President Trump has frozen over $2.2 billion in federal funding to Harvard University after it rejected White House demands targeting antisemitism on campus. The university refused sweeping changes that included federal oversight of governance, hiring, and admissions. Harvard's president argued the demands violated its independence and constitutional rights. The Biden-era push to enforce federal control through funding threatens academic autonomy. Harvard is the first to resist—while others like Columbia have already complied under pressure. Lawsuits are mounting as campus arrests intensify over pro-Palestinian protests nationwide. #Trump #Harvard #CampusProtests #Antisemitism #FederalFunding #AcademicFreedom #DEI #FreeSpeech #ColumbiaUniversity #GazaProtests #WhiteHouse #StudentRights #IsraelHamas #DiversityDebate #USPolitics #EducationNews #AlanGarber #UniversityFunding #CampusCrackdown #FirstAmendment
