He’s warned everyone that he will ‘tell it like it is’ 😳

Here’s everything Donald Trump is expected to cover in his first address to congress today.

President Trump returned to the White House 43 days ago and to say it’s been eventful and chaotic is certainly an understatement.

The Republican president has signed off on many orders – which have included halting the ban of TikTok, and declaring that there are ‘only two genders’ among others.

And across the pond, Trump has paused US military aid being sent to Ukraine after a heated meeting with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy last week where the 47th POTUS said the Ukrainian leader is ‘gambling with World War 3’.

So, with his first address to Congress coming this evening, Trump will certainly have a lot to talk about.

What will President Trump talk about in his address to Congress?

CNN reports the president’s speech to Congress tonight ‘will be an explanation of the fast-paced start to his second term’, with Trump’s address set to provide an explanation as to the decision he’s made so far.

Trump is also expected to lay out his vision for his second term after Mike Johnson, the House speaker, invited him to share his ‘America First vision for our legislative future’.

Ukraine will almost certainly be on the agenda at the Capitol building amid a minerals deal involving the US and the European county still unsigned.

When asked by a reporter recently if the deal could still happen, the president said: “I’ll let you know. We’re making a speech, you probably heard.”

Meanwhile, the White House said Trump’s speech will be ‘the renewal of the American dream’, while the president himself has hyped it up with the following statement on Truth Social: “Tomorrow night will be big. I will tell it like it is.”

Immigration and tariffs

A senior administration official within Trump’s government told NBC News last week that the president will focus on his efforts to take immigration and on the new tariffs introduced on Canadian, Mexican and Chinese exports.

Trump implemented tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China to tackle what the White House has described as an ‘extraordinary threat posed by illegal aliens and drugs, including deadly fentanyl’.

Further reasoning will likely be provided by Trump this evening.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said: “President Trump has accomplished more in one month than any president in four years, and the renewal of the American Dream is well underway.”

Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin is tasked with providing a Democrat response to the speech later today.
