  President Donald Trump With Tesla CEO Elon Musk EU Targets Elon Musk After 2024 Election Censorship Clash, Musk Reminds Trump at 2 AM In a late-night development that has reignited debates around digital censorship and global political influence, Elon Musk reminded former President Donald Trump at around 2 AM that the European Union had previously pressured him to censor Trump’s content during the 2024 U.S. presidential election . According to Musk, EU officials approached X (formerly Twitter) demanding restrictions on Trump’s posts during the heated election cycle — a move Musk refused, calling it a violation of democratic speech principles. Now, the situation has escalated. Musk claims the EU is no longer just pressuring him behind the scenes but is launching direct actions against him and X , investigating alleged violations under the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA). Critics argue this is political retaliation tied to Musk’s refusal to censor political speech. Musk: “Th...

The only way to know what you are voting for.” 🇪🇺 EU Defends I...

Ron DeSantis Urges Supreme Court to Overturn Birthright Citizenship Protections December 5, 2025 Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is calling on the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the long-standing interpretation of birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment, arguing that the provision was never intended to grant automatic citizenship to children born to undocumented immigrants. Speaking on Monday, DeSantis echoed former President Donald Trump’s earlier attempts to challenge birthright citizenship and vowed to support a constitutional reinterpretation that would exclude children of illegal immigrants from automatic U.S. citizenship. DeSantis: “The Framers Intended No Such Thing” “The framers of that amendment intended no such thing, but it has been interpreted to be a blanket grant of birthright citizenship for any child birthed on U.S. soil to illegal alien parents,” DeSantis argued. “Correcting this would r...

Dept. of Homeland Security ICE Arrests Harvard Law Professor After Anti-Semitic BB Gun Incident Outside Boston Synagogue By Political Hub News Desk December 4, 2025 In a major development, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has arrested Harvard Law School professor Carlos Portugal Gouvêa , a Brazilian national, after he refused to self-deport following the revocation of his visa tied to an anti-Semitic shooting incident earlier this year.

According to the records, the President logged at least ten 12-hour workdays last month and averaged 50-hour workweeks , excluding weekends.
