CNN political commentator Van Jones said on Wednesday that Donald Trump showed something surprising during his address to the nation.

Trump addressed the nation on Wednesday night at a time when public polling shows support for his economic policies is crumbling. A recent NPR poll found that 36% of Americans support Trump's economic policies, which is a record low for his second administration.

A CNN political commentator mocked President Donald Trump's address to the nation on Wednesday night.

Trump's address to the nation comes at a time when public polls show support for some of his signature policies is fading. A recent NPR poll found just 36% of Americans support his economic policies, which many experts have said are the reason Trump was elected to office in the first place.

President Donald Trump was addressing the nation on Wednesday night, his first public address in several months.

His speech comes at a time when his poll numbers slide, and Democrats appear to have significant momentum heading into the 2026 midterm election. A recent NPR/PBS News/Marist poll found just 36% of voters approve of Trump's handling of the economy, which is the lowest of his presidency.

Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) hit back on Wednesday night, after President Donald Trump lashed out at him on his Truth Social platform to attack his Christian faith.

"Warnock spent the entire show using Religion to try and divide the Country! If a Republican, in particular ME, made those statements, it would be FRONT PAGE NEWS," Trump proclaimed, adding that Warnock is "a bad guy" whose wife "correctly states that he tried to run her over with a car" and NBC News won't "get away" with interviewing him.

A Senate Democrat bashed the Trump administration's classified briefing on its strikes against alleged drug boats during an interview on CNN.

On Tuesday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Secretary of State Marco Rubio gave a classified briefing to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, where they contradicted several key parts of the administration's narrative about the strikes. For instance, they said the boats were likely traveling to Europe, not the United States, as the administration claimed. They also admitted that the ships were likely carrying cocaine and not fentanyl, which President Donald Trump recently declared a "weapon of mass destruction."

Following the meeting with the wife of the slain Turning Point USA founder, Owens said she would focus on Patel during her Wednesday show.

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) accused President Donald Trump of following former President George W. Bush's playbook by lying to the country to start a war.

"The framers understood a simple truth. To the extent that war-making power devolves to one person, liberty dissolves," Massie said during a Wednesday speech on the House floor. "If the president believes military action against Venezuela is justified and needed, he should make the case, and Congress should vote before American lives and treasure are spent on regime change in South America."

A former U.S. Army Reserve lieutenant colonel and Green Beret who has become a far-right political operative and activist recorded himself heckling former special counsel Jack Smith on Capitol Hill, following Smith and shouting derogatory names.

Ivan Raiklin, who previously billed himself as Donald Trump's “secretary of retribution” during the campaign, recorded himself hassling Jack Smith for targeting him with a subpoena.
