O'DONNELL: Well, just after midnight, the night before Donald Trump left Washington headed for Israel and Egypt, he had one of his most serious hallucinations yet. It was another Trump self-administered dementia test that he published on social media. At 12:38 a.m., Donald Trump said the Biden FBI placed 274 agents into the crowd on January 6th. If this is so, which it is, a lot of very good people will be owed big apologies. What a scam. Do something. Three exclamation points.

We can only rejoice that, for now, Israel's genocide in Gaza has halted. The killing has stopped. Food is being allowed in, easing the starvation. Palestinians forcibly displaced from their homes are returning to their cities, if not their homes, most of which Israel has pulverized. Yet celebration must be tempered by the gnawing reality that the conditions for a lasting peace are, in classic Middle East fashion, being kicked down the road for future resolution if ever at all.

When it comes to vaccines, president Donald Trump's attitude tends to be "do what I say, not what I do." Over the weekend, it was revealed that Trump received both a flu shot and a COVID-19 booster during his second physical of 2025. News of Trump's inoculations came from Trump's personal physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, who wrote that the shots were part of a preventative health battery "in preparation for upcoming international travel."

That old line that politics is showbiz for ugly people is so good it should be true, but it isn't really. Politics has always been politics, and showbiz is something different. Not, however, in the unique case of Donald Trump. The current US president is best understood as a pomp-era megastar. Extraordinary, really, that Trump never even needed to get into cocaine. I think when he dies scientists will discover that his body naturally produced coke as a byproduct of digesting overcooked hamburgers.

Speaking with reporters aboard Air Force One late Monday, the president randomly pivoted from a question about whether Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan could help bring an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine to banter with the White House press corps about the performance of his press secretary. How's Karoline doing? Trump asked. Is she doing good? Then, Trump clearly in jest floated the prospect of ousting Leavitt.

Popular opinion in the Arab nations is always going to hate Israel. That has not changed. Tonight they hate Israel, last night they hated Israel, said O'Reilly during an appearance on NewsNation's On Balance with Leland Vittert. What has changed is the view toward the United States. In Trump's first term, the Arabs were neutral In the second term of Trump, that is totally different.

Donald Trump shows me what's politically possible, he said on The Breakfast Club on Monday. Trump shows me what presidents can do when they want to do it. Donald Trump shows me what can be said if you're willing to say it. It's not about what can't be done; it's about who has the political will to do it. I don't want to hear a peep from Democrats about nothing until they get the ball to say what's really on their mind in regards to this country and this world," he said.

I watched your coverage, and I really appreciate it. You are a real professional not because it's good or bad, you're just really professional, Trump told Yingst during a brief TV interview from Israel. It would be great if other people could do what you do, because, you know, they put negative spin [in their news stories]. The president then said he has been pleasantly surprised that has not been the case with the recent coverage of the Israel-Hamas hostage deal he spearheaded.

So there's a lot of respect, and I think you'll see some tremendous progress, both in the Middle East. This country is doing very well. It has good leadership, Trump said of Sisi, who came to power following a coup in 2013 and has since been accused of widespread oppression and anti-democratic tactics. Trump continued: It's about leadership, and it's really nice when you say, How is your crime situation? and they don't even know what you're talking about.

Fox's Peter Doocy asked Trump about comments he made in August about how he is trying to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine in order to "try and get to heaven if possible." "I'm hearing I'm not doing well. I am really at the bottom of the totem pole," he said at the time. "But if I can get to heaven, this will be one of the reasons." Doocy asked Trump if he thought his more recent actions would help him get into heaven.

The White House released audio of Trump's press gaggle on Sunday, during which he praised Larry and David Ellison, the father-son duo that now owns Paramount, CBS's parent company. Larry Ellison, the founder of Oracle, is a close ally of Trump and is taking part in the U.S.-backed takeover of TikTok, a deal brokered by the Trump administration. He's doing pretty well, huh? So who's going to be the head anchor at CBS? Trump quipped at one point during the gaggle.

It's good that President Trump adopted and built on the plan the Biden Administration developed after months of discussion with Arab partners, Israel and the Palestinian Authority. (6/12) It starts with a clear and comprehensive post conflict plan for Gaza. It's good that President Trump adopted and built on the plan the Biden Administration developed after months of discussion with Arab partners, Israel and the Palestinian Authority. It centers on

My friends, this is only a partial list, but it's enough to affirm what I've said time and again. Donald Trump is the greatest friend that the state of Israel has ever had in the White House.

President Donald Trump was able to chuckle about needing a lot of security after nearly being assassinated multiple times during a round of golf with his granddaughter, Kai Trump, that she posted to her YouTube channel on Saturday. Kai Trump, as the president drove the golf cart they were using between holes, pointed out there were plenty of Secret Service members off-camera.

Donald Trump claimed on Saturday that he has found a way to pay US military troops despite the ongoing federal government shutdown, saying he has instructed his defence secretary, Pete Hegseth, to release funds. Posting on his Truth Social platform, Trump wrote: I am using my authority, as commander-in-chief, to direct our secretary of war, Pete Hegseth, to use all available funds to get our troops PAID on October 15. Trump said he had identified the funds to make the payments happen, adding: I will not allow the Democrats to hold our military, and the entire security of our nation, HOSTAGE, with their dangerous government shutdown. The radical left Democrats should OPEN THE GOVERNMENT.

Phillip shared her thoughts on CNN's Table for Five on Saturday morning. Honestly, it's not unfair to say, if President Obama is going to write a whole post about a peace deal, maybe he should acknowledge the president who brokered it, she said. Her comment comes two days after Obama posted on X, saying, we should all be encouraged and relieved that an end to the conflict is within sight.

He was flanked by President Trump's daughter, Ivanka Trump, and her husband, Jared Kushner, who played a key role in getting the Israel-Hamas deal done. Out of the 48 hostages remaining, 20 are believed to be alive. To President Donald J. Trump, a man who is a humanitarian through and through, with the indomitable spirit who once again proved that bold leadership and moral clarity can reshape history and change the world, Witkoff told the crowd, right after it shouted its appreciation for the commander-in-chief.

And I tell the story, Glenn, that in my first term, I had the honor of being the first president in 28 years to lower drug prices during the course of the year. And we actually did. And I was so proud of myself. We called a news conference. I announced it. It was one-eighth of 1 percent. One-eighth of 1 percent.

If it were President Biden and he had sent a direct message that was made public directing his attorney general to prosecute someone, you guys would have been calling for impeachment, she said to GOP strategist Lance Trover.

I think it was a mistake, as I already mentioned. Him putting out these demands for indictmentsI don't think it's right. I think, again, it's unseemly. Presidents don't normally do this. And to me, I think he's foolish, Bacon replied, adding: He's hurting his own case by making these demands, because I guarantee you, Director Comey and James here are going to use his words against him as the first part of their defense during these cases.

When Donald Trump appointed Lindsey Halligan to act as the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, critics worried that he had tapped her specifically to bring prosecutions against his enemies. It didn't take long for Halligan to prove the critics right. On September 25, she successfully persuaded a Virginia grand jury to indict former FBI Director James Comey. Yesterday, she secured an indictment against New York Attorney General Letitia James.
