President Donald Trump’s interview with Fox News host Bret Baier is set to air at 3 p.m. – just hours before the Super Bowl.

More than lowering the price of eggs, extending tax cuts, or launching new tariffs against China, or anything else Donald Trump campaigned on, rooting out all signs of diversity, equity, and inclusion has become the main target of Republicans.

And they have successfully wrestled control of the battleground topic from Democrats.

Donald Trump’s campaign team worried that Iran could try to shoot down his plane after threats of an alleged plot to kill him became known.

The concern grew enough that the president flew in a plane separate from his recognizable “Trump Force One” to an event, according to an upcoming book about Trump’s rise to power.

While campaigning for president last year, U.S. law enforcement officials warned Trump and his team that Tehran had placed operatives in the U.S. with access to surface-to-air missiles and there was an alleged plot to assassinate him.

After the Secret Service intervened in an almost-assassination attempt at his golf club in Florida, Trump’s security detail heightened security concerns and chose to fly the future president on a decoy plane, owned by Steve Witkoff, and allowed Trump staff to fly on Trump Force One – much to their anger.

Staff worried they would be “collateral damage” if the jet were shot down by Iranian operatives, though campaign leaders assured them they were not “bait.”

The new details are part of an upcoming book, Revenge: The Inside Story of Trump’s Return to Power, by journalist Alex Isenstadt.

Another flight carrying noncitizens to Guantanamo Bay landed at the US Naval Base in Cuba on Saturday evening, according to reports.

That brings the total number of migrants to approximately 50, two officials told CBS News.

The Trump administration said so far, those brought to Guantanamo are migrants with criminal backgrounds and ties to drug cartels. However, they have not released their identities.

Speaker Mike Johnson admitted on Sunday that he remains in a very tight spot with his caucus as he, with the president’s backing, seeks to carve out a budget proposal that addresses longstanding demands from conservatives for significant cuts to federal spending.

Appearing on Fox News Sunday, Johnson said that the legislation is still set to be rolled out as one massive bill, per President Trump’s stated wishes. But he cautioned that efforts to write a bill that could win the support of every Republican in his caucus was still ongoing.

With a single-digit margin in the lower chamber, Republicans will either have to find unity in a caucus that has repeatedly relied on Democratic votes to pass major funding resolutions or take that same politically divisive option again.

“We might push it a little bit further because the details really matter. Remember that I have the smallest margin in history, about a two-vote margin currently, so I’ve got to make sure everyone agrees before we bring the project forward, that final product,” said Johnson.

“And we’ve got a few more boxes to check, but we’re getting very, very close.”

President Donald Trump says he trusts Elon Musk and his DOGE initiative that has challenged career employees across the federal government and seemingly forced its way into sensitive systems at the Treasury and other agencies.

Republican lawmakers are exploring controversial proposals targeting higher education to offset the cost of extending Trump-era tax cuts.

These include potentially taxing college scholarships, eliminating student loan repayment plans, and significantly increasing taxes on university endowments.

The proposals, currently circulating within House committees, are part of a broader effort to identify spending cuts and revenue streams.

While still in the early stages, and with no guarantee of implementation, the mere consideration of such measures has sparked widespread concern among higher education advocates.

They argue that these changes could dramatically reshape the landscape of college affordability and accessibility.

Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy raised alarm bells over Trump’s attempts to expand executive authority beyond what other presidents have done.

“I think this is the most serious constitutional crisis the country has faced, certainly, since Watergate,” Murphy told ABC on Sunday.

Murphy has been a vocal opponent of Trump and Elon Musk as they seek to reshape the government in Trump’s vision.

Elon Musk has Donald Trump’s full support in reviewing practices throughout the government and making drastic cuts to the workforce and spending, the president told Fox News host Bret Baier

“He’s not gaining anything,” Trump said. “In fact I wonder how he could devote the time to it – he’s so into it.”

Musk and his team of allies in the Department of Government Efficiency have been directed to go to different agencies and find practices they believe should no longer exist.

Trump said this was part of him carrying out his agenda that the American people voted for.

Musk is likely to look at the Department of Education next – something Trump promised to abolish on the campaign trail.

President Donald Trump is golfing with pro-golfer Tiger Woods at his Palm Beach golf club today, before heading to New Orleans to attend the Super Bowl, according to White House reporters.
