President Donald J. Trump and Vice President JD Vance are unleashing an unrelenting, full-scale assault on the fraudsters, scammers, and corrupt operators who have looted billions from American taxpayers. The White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud is moving at unprecedented speed and ferocity to root out the waste, abuse, and criminal exploitation of government programs that have drained billions from hardworking…
As of 9:12, the pool is holding at Walter Reed Military Hospital. We are holding on a floor that houses the facility's dental school classrooms.

The White House called a lunch lid until 3:30 p.m. Natalie Allison White House Reporter The Washington Post @natalie_allison
The president’s motorcade arrived at the White House at 1:37 p.m. He walked inside the north entrance at 1:43 p.m. after lingering outside for several minutes, appearing to closely examine a column at the north portico. He did not respond to your pooler shouting a question about the status of a deal with Iran. On the ride back from the cemetery this time, three demonstrators stood inside the roundabout where the arc…
The pool, from a distance, could spot President Trump and VP Vance walking back to the motorcade at 1:25 p.m. Motorcade departed at 1:27 p.m. en route to White House. Photographers spotted Vance still behind, waiting for his own motorcade, as we drove by to leave. Another gun salute is ongoing as the president’s motorcade travels through the cemetery to the exit. — Natalie Allison White House Reporter The Washington…
President Trump began speaking at 12:53 p.m. Like VP Vance, he received a standing ovation and cheers as he was announced. (Sending late because there was no cell service in amphitheater. We are still at the cemetery.) “What a beautiful day, as it turns out,” the president said to the crowd sitting in the rain in the amphitheater. “It’s just perfect. We’d rather have this than the heat.” He called it a “momentous ye…
The audience applauded as President Trump, VP Vance, Secretary Hegseth and General Caine, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, walked onto a stage at the front of the amphitheater at 12:30 p.m. Rain has begun falling, prompting many in the crowd, which is exposed to the elements, to hurriedly put on ponchos. The president is expected to speak last, and the speeches are being live streamed. Tulsi Gabbard, the outgo…
Apologies for leaving off the number of the last report, which should have been #3. President Trump, VP Vance and Secretary Hegseth approached the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at 12:10 p.m., as an elderly man standing on the steps nearby seemed to fall. He appears to be ok and is now seated in a chair. They saluted as the national anthem is played. The president then stepped forward for the wreath presentation, stand…
The motorcade arrived at Arlington National Cemetery at 11:59 a.m., after passing the site of the president’s planned Triumphal Arch in a roundabout just past the Arlington Memorial Bridge. The president passed anti-arch protestors on the way in, including some with a large fake arch on the Lincoln Memorial side of the bridge that read “86 Trump’s Arch.” Additional protestors held signs on the cemetery side of the b…
The president stepped out of the North Portico of the White House at 11:51 a.m. The motorcade is en route to Arlington National Cemetery. — Natalie Allison White House Reporter The Washington Post
