Former President Trump will address supporters in Florida after winning the presidency, holding a decisive lead over Vice President Harris in key states across the electoral map.

The Hill and Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ) projected Trump’s electoral victory shortly after 1 p.m., after declaring Trump the projected winner of Pennsylvania and Alaska, which got him to exactly 270 electoral votes.

Harris canceled an expected appearance at Howard University Tuesday night, with her campaign saying that she will address the country on Wednesday.

    President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday threatened 100% tariffs against a bloc of nine nations if they act to undermine the U.S. dollar. While the U.S. dollar is by far the most-used currency in global business and has survived past challenges to its preeminence, members of the alliance and other developing nations say they are fed up with America’s dominance of the global financial system. Trump, in a Truth Social post, said: “We require a commitment from these Countries that they will neither create a new BRICS Currency, nor back any other Currency to replace the mighty U.S. Dollar or, they will face 100% Tariffs, and should expect to say goodbye to selling into the wonderful U.S. Economy."

The choice of Patel, a lawyer who served in several roles in the president-elect’s first administration, set off a firestorm of criticism in part because of his promotion of conspiracy theories and calls for retribution against Trump’s opponents in a second term. To underscore the point, Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough repeatedly asked for a clip t

Australia approved the social media ban for children late on Thursday after an emotive debate that has gripped the nation, setting a benchmark for jurisdictions around the world with one of the toughest regulations targeting Big Tech.
