Trump, and the rest of his administration, love to complain about the Times and other big, mainstream media outfits. They also love talking to them. Earlier this week, for instance, key Trump advisor Stephen Miller appeared on CNN for a much-discussed interview with Jake Tapper, where he laid out a bellicose view of America's role in the world. A few days before that, Trump talked to The Wall Street Journal - another publication he's currently suing - for a story about his health and fitness.
Trump posted on Truth Social at 8:20 pm ET on Thursday a chart that included unreleased figures. On Friday morning, economists were able to connect the dots following the release of the December jobs report to the public.

However, Musk, back in Trump's good graces, stands to get some assistance for Tesla from the White House moving forward, especially as he and the President are back to being friends and allies. Reduced Scrutiny from a Regulatory Standpoint Tesla has been the subject of several National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) probes, including ones that dive into Autopilot and Full Self-Driving and incidents involving the two. Trump has already initiated a more relaxed environment for autonomous vehicle oversight.
Driving the news: "You've got to win the midterms," he said to an audience of House Republicans during their member retreat. "Because if we don't win the midterms, it's just going to be, I mean, they'll find a reason to impeach me." Trump said his first term impeachments were "for nothing."

As justifications for Donald Trump's invasion of Venezuela proliferate and change, a video of former Fox host Tucker Carlson in which he claims that the U.S. wants Venezuela to legalize marriage for same-sex couples has resurfaced.
The President does not have the unilateral authority to invade foreign countries, oust their governments, and seize their resources. Under the Constitution, the power to go to war lies with the people's branch. It's time for Republicans and Democrats in Congress to reassert our constitutional role in authorizing military force when needed and holding President Trump accountable before the United States is engaged in another war the American people did not choose.
United States President Donald Trump has set out to justify the attack launched on Venezuela and Washington imposing its will in Latin America by citing a policy from a 19th century president. Trump on Saturday called the raid that led to Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro being abducted an update to the Monroe Doctrine, the 1823 declaration by the fifth US president, James Monroe, adding that the US will run the country until a safe, proper and judicious transition could be carried out.
Long a favored getaway for presidents seeking a few hours' solace from the stress of running the free world, the Courses at Andrews - inside the secure confines of Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, about 15 miles (24 kilometers) from the White House - are known as the "president's golf course."

Toby Morton, a TV writer and producer who has worked on the long-running and joyfully offensive sitcom, said he purchased the domain in August after predicting the president would change the name from the Kennedy Center to the Trump Kennedy Center after he installed himself as chair and stocked the board with loyalists.

Would you like to have food, or would you consider that a bribe? Trump asked. And therefore you could not write honestly, or therefore you have to write a bad story. Trump started to smirk as he made his quip, and his son-in-law Jared Kushner appeared to get a kick out of the question while sitting at the end of the table. Would you like something to eat at this time? Yes or no? You can speak, Trump continued. Yes sir, the reporter told him.

Writer Toby Morton bought the trumpkennedycenter.org and trumpkennedycenter.com domains back in August and is now plotting how best to parody Trump's vanity, according to The Washington Post.
