Trump calls for famed Alcatraz prison to be reopened, expanded

After meeting with Trump at the White House, House Speaker Mike Johnson is expected to convene a meeting in his office at the Capitol with top administration officials, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and leading congressional Republicans grappling over budget reconciliation.

Republicans have begun releasing legislative text to codify their lofty ambitions to cut at least $2 trillion from federal spending over the next decade, with six markups scheduled this week and additional hearings anticipated in the coming weeks as conservatives face the latest test of their narrow majority.

Republicans are heading into a pivotal period in which they hope to sharply reshape federal spending to align with the president’s domestic agenda. The meeting with Trump was a chance for the president and speaker to huddle as Congress returns to Washington following a two-week legislative recess and the president approaches 100 days in office.

At a briefing with influencers and new media, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt indicated that one of President Donald Trump's priorities is to pass reconciliation, and that the president is discussing the bill with House Speaker Mike Johnson in the Oval Office on Monday.

"It's a huge deal. We have to get it done. He's working closely with Congress. In fact, he's meeting with Speaker Johnson, I think, in a few minutes today, in the Oval Office, to discuss this very bill and measure," Leavitt said.

She said they are "very confident" the package will "include more funding for border wall construction and mass deportations."

Trump also wants to see "tax cuts passed in this reconciliation package that includes no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security for our seniors," she added.

President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on Monday that directs the Department of Transportation to "include English literacy tests for our truckers," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said at a briefing for influencers and new media.

"This is a big problem in the trucking community that unless you're in that community, you might not know, but there's a lot of communication problems between truckers on the road with federal officials and local officials as well, which obviously is a public safety risk," Leavitt said. "We're going to ensure that our truckers, who are the backbone of our economy, are all able to speak English. That's a very common-sense policy in the United States of America."

Leavitt also said Trump will sign an executive order on Monday that will direct Attorney General Pam Bondi to make a list of sanctuary cities for review.

"If those sanctuary cities are breaking federal law, well, then the Office of Management and Budget is going to look at their federal spending again. If you're defying federal law, you are threatening your own federal spending by doing that," Leavitt said.

As President Donald Trump prepares to celebrate 100 days in office, Rep. Shri Thanedar, D-Mich., has introduced seven articles of impeachment against the president -- laying out a slate of broad charges where the second-term Democrat accuses him of abusing the power of the presidency, committing "acts of tyranny" as well as "flagrant violations" of the Constitution.

"Donald Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that he is unfit to serve as President and represents a clear and present danger to our nation's constitution and our democracy," Thanedar stated. "His unlawful actions have subverted the justice system, violated the separation of powers, and placed personal power and self-interest above public service. We cannot wait for more damage to be done. Congress must act."

The ambitious resolution includes seven articles of impeachment, including obstruction of justice and abuse of executive power, usurpation of appropriations power, abuse of trade powers and international aggression, violation of First Amendment rights, creation of an unlawful office with DOGE, bribery and corruption tyrannical overreach.

There's virtually no shot that Democrats can overcome a Republican firewall to successfully impeach and convict the president, but this move foreshadows the Democratic course of action if they win back the majority in next year's midterm elections.
