Trump's Congress Speech Triggers Major Protests, Ejections

During President Donald Trump's speech to Congress, he faced significant protests from Democratic lawmakers, including a notable interruption by Rep. Al Green, who was eventually removed from the chamber for his disruptive actions. Trump's address, which he framed as a celebration of his achievements in the first 43 days of his presidency, was filled with exaggerated claims, including a promise to balance the federal budget while proposing tax cuts. He emphasized his MAGA agenda and announced plans for new tariffs on several countries, stating that these would take effect soon. The atmosphere was tense, marked by protests such as Rep. Melanie Stansbury holding a sign reading 'This is not normal,' which was quickly confiscated by a Republican member. Despite the chaos, Trump continued with his speech, boasting of his administration's successes and criticizing Democrats. The event underscored the deep divisions in Congress and the contentious political climate surrounding Trump's return to power.
