Warren tells Trump to ‘sign the damn bill’ as bipartisan housing package remains stalled in Washington
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., lashed out at President Donald Trump during a recent local television interview, labeling him a “man-child” throwing a “tantrum” over his refusal to sign a sweeping bipartisan housing package. Appearing on WCVB‘s “On the Record,” the left-wing senator did not hold back her frustration over the stalled legislation, delivering a blunt message to the president: “Sign the damn bill.” “If he cared about the American people, he’d have already signed the damn thing,” Warren said during the interview, arguing that Trump “does not care about the economic survival of America’s working families.” TRUMP-BACKED HOUSING BILL CLEARS HOUSE AFTER GOP DEFIES SENATE PRESSURE CAMPAIGN The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is an expansive bipartisan package that she said contains nearly 50 provisions designed to address the nationwide housing emergency. Warren noted that decades of under-building have driven prices up, leaving the U.S. in need of millions of new units. The primary focus of the bill is to lower the costs of construction and make it easier to build new homes. BIPARTISAN HOUSING PUSH ADVANCES, BUT TRUMP-BACKED INVESTOR BAN FACES RESISTANCE The bill, which was co-sponsored by Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., also includes a secondary focus aimed at blocking corporate consolidation of the housing market. Warren explained that the legislation is designed to keep private equity firms from buying up local neighborhoods and turning America “into a nation of renters.” According to Warren, the legislation had widespread support from both sides of the aisle before it was stalled. TRUMP VOWS BLOCK ON SIGNING NEW LAWS UNTIL SAVE AMERICA ACT PASSES SENATE She claimed the bill was “handed to the president on a silver platter” and that lawmakers from both parties were eagerly taking credit for the legislation. “Republicans were all going online, saying, ‘well, I helped write that bill. This bill is terrific,’” Warren said. “So everybody’s out there saying, ‘my bill, I helped make this happen,’ right up until the man-child has a tantrum and announces he will not be signing it.” Critics of the legislation claim it does not allocate fresh federal funding, directly address rising costs of homeownership, or go far enough to address permitting issues. The president previously canceled a scheduled signing event, insisting lawmakers must first approve the unrelated SAVE America Act, a voting-focused measure, before he moves forward. The White House did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. Fox News Digital’s Alex Miller contributed to this report.
‘Baked to death’: Homan rips media while sharing horrific scenes from border enforcement career
White House border czar Tom Homan erupted at critics of President Donald Trump’s immigration agenda Friday, recalling horrific scenes from his decades in border enforcement — including migrants he said were “baked to death” in a tractor-trailer — as he argued that secure borders save lives. Homan used the graphic stories during remarks at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority Policy Conference in Washington, D.C., to push back on critics who have accused the Trump administration of being inhumane, arguing instead that tougher border enforcement saves lives by deterring migrants from making dangerous journeys controlled by cartels. “I want to talk about why I’m pissed off this morning,” Homan told the crowd, arguing that media coverage has falsely portrayed Trump’s immigration policies as cruel or inhumane. BORDER CZAR TOM HOMAN SLAMS CATHOLIC CHURCH, SAYS ‘SECURE BORDER SAVES LIVES’ “There’s nothing further from the truth,” Homan said. Rather, the border czar said critics have it backward, arguing that lax border enforcement creates the conditions for migrants to be exploited, assaulted or killed by smugglers and cartels. “What President Trump is doing is saving lives,” Homan told the crowd. He then described one of the most graphic scenes he said he witnessed during his career in border enforcement. “I’ve stood in the back of a tractor-trailer with 19 dead people at my feet,” Homan told the crowd at the Washington Hilton Friday morning, adding that the victims included a young boy and that they were found in their underwear while trying to escape extreme heat in the back of the truck. “They all baked to death,” Homan said. “I got to that crime scene. They’re all in underwear, trying to get some relief from the 170 degree heat in the back of a steel truck with no air. Think of the way these people died.” TRUMP BORDER CZAR HAS BLUNT MESSAGE FOR SELENA GOMEZ: ‘WHERE’S THE TEARS’ FOR SEX TRAFFICKED CHILDREN? Homan also said he has spoken with young girls who were raped by cartel members while making the journey to the U.S. border. “I’ve gotten on my knees to talk to little girls as young as 9 that were raped multiple times by members of a cartel,” Homan said. “That’s what happens when you have an unsecured border,” he added. “Well, guess what? There’s no little 9-year-old girl right now that everybody’s getting on their knees and talking to. President Trump has closed the border down.” Homan repeatedly defended Trump personally and politically, saying the president has delivered the “most secure border in the history of this nation” and arguing that the administration’s immigration crackdown is aimed at preventing more deaths, trafficking and cartel exploitation. “Secure borders save lives,” Homan said near the end of his remarks. “Secure borders protect our national security. No one’s done it better than President Trump. And we ain’t finished yet.” The remarks came as the Trump administration continues to face criticism from Democrats and immigrant-rights advocates over its mass deportation push, expanded immigration enforcement and efforts to reverse Biden-era border policies. Homan, however, framed the crackdown as a moral necessity, saying the administration is making the country safer while reducing incentives for migrants to place themselves in the hands of criminal cartels.
New limited-edition US passport features Trump’s image and a warning
President Donald Trump on Friday unveiled the inside of the new United States passport, which shows his own image gracing a page in front of the Declaration of Independence, while warning those coming to the U.S. to behave appropriately. “The U.S.A.’s New Passport, which says, ‘Welcome, but be good!’ President DJT,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post accompanied by the image. The image of one page shows a stern-looking Trump over his signature, while another page features a mock-up of the Founding Fathers signing the Declaration of Independence, with “United States of America 250” written below. TRUMP URGED TO DECLARE ‘AMERICAN’ THE OFFICIAL US LANGUAGE AHEAD OF 250TH ANNIVERSARY Fox News Digital previously reported that the State Department would be rolling out limited-edition U.S. passports to commemorate the 250th anniversary of American independence, with Trump featured prominently. The passports are slated to be released this summer and are part of the Trump administration’s broader “America250” celebration, which also includes a Grand Prix race on the National Mall in August and a UFC fight on the White House South Lawn that took place earlier this month. EXCLUSIVE: STATE DEPARTMENT INTRODUCES NEW US PASSPORTS CELEBRATING AMERICA250 A State Department official previously told Fox News Digital that the new designs will be available to “any American citizen” who applies for a passport during the rollout and will continue for as long as there is availability. Trump’s social media post comes as the U.S. has enacted stricter vetting policies for foreign visitors, explicitly demanding that tourists and nonimmigrants respect and follow U.S. laws and institutions. The tighter rules coincide with the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where hundreds of thousands of foreigners have come to the U.S. to watch the games, which end in July.
