Trump forces MAGA reps to pay to party at his posh resort: 'Nothing was on the House'
Mar 11, 2026 - World 
President Donald Trump was lining his pockets and simultaneously making MAGA lawmakers pay up for their stays at his Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami this week, according to reports Wednesday. The four-star luxury resort has rooms starting at $600+ per night, and "nothing was on the House" during the Republican policy retreat this week in Florida, according to The Swamp, The Daily Beast's Substack. "America is at war and casualties are mounting, gas prices and the cost of living are skyrocketing, and federal workers forgotten in a government shutdown are wondering when they’ll get their next paycheck," The Swamp reported. "So what better for GOP lawmakers to do than to head for the Miami sunshine for the annual House Republican policy retreat?"The resort also apparently has a 125-foot water slide, $420 spa treatments and a $31 burger on the menu. "Super suckup Speaker Mike Johnson gushed it was an 'amazing' venue and insisted attendees among the House’s 218 Republicans had 'so much' to celebrate while they were chatting by the pool," according to The Swamp.Republicans were reportedly using the venue to discuss talking points and consider how they could develop a legislative agenda to appeal to more voters ahead of the midterm elections this fall, according to The New York Times. Johnson also admitted there was work for Republicans ahead, as concerns over the GOP's performance grow as the party tries to maintain a sense of optimism despite a potentially grim outlook in the elections.“We’ve got a little hiccup with some of the Hispanic and Latino voters for certain, because some of the immigration enforcement was viewed to be overzealous,” Johnson said in an onstage interview.“And, you know, everybody can describe it differently. But here’s the good news: We’re in a course correction mode right now,” Johnson added. “We’re going to have a new Secretary of Homeland Security.”

'Which one is it?' Fox News tires of Trump calling Iran conflict a 'war' and 'excursion'
Mar 11, 2026 - World 
Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy seemed to tire of President Donald Trump's doublespeak on the Iran conflict and pressed him to define the operation."And we did a little excursion. We had to take this little couple of weeks, a few weeks of excursion, but it's been incredible," Trump said while touring a factory in Ohio on Wednesday. "Our military is unbelievable, the job they're doing. I would say, to put it mildly, way ahead of schedule. We've knocked out their Navy, their military in it, all forms. We've knocked out just about everything there is, including their leadership, twice. We knocked out twice their leadership.""Now they have a new group coming up," he continued. "Let's see what happens to them. But 47 bad years we suffered with them, not only us, the rest of the world. We're doing our jobs. So we had to take an excursion, but it's going well.""You just said it is a little excursion, and you said it is a war," Doocy noted. "So which one is it?""It's both," Trump replied. "It's an excursion that will keep us out of a war. And the war is going to be, I mean, for them it's a war. For us, it's turned out to be easier than we thought.""But think of it, they had thousands of missiles, 7, 8,000 missiles," he added. "We got many of them before they got to launch. They have drones all over the place. We got many now, we're knocking out the drone plants, as you know, going fast."
