Polish prime minister duels with US ambassador over politician saying Trump doesn’t deserve Nobel Peace Prize
Every delay has consequences.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk dueled with the U.S. ambassador to Poland after the latter voiced outrage over comments the country’s parliamentary speaker made suggesting President Donald Trump didn’t deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.

On Thursday, U.S. ambassador to Poland Tom Rose announced that the U.S. would be severing all “further dealings, contacts, or communications” with Marshal of the Sejm Włodzimierz Czarzasty, over “outrageous and unprovoked insults” directed against Trump.

The comments, Rose said, have made Czarzasty a “serious impediment to our excellent relations with Prime Minister Tusk and his government. We will not permit anyone to harm U.S.–Polish relations, nor disrespect @realDonaldTrump, who has done so much for Poland and the Polish people.”

Rose then brawled with another user who accused the ambassador of interfering in Polish politics.

“Anyone who insults and denigrates my president is interfering in my politics!! You do not tolerate being insulted and neither will we,” he said.

Czarzasty has been critical of Trump previously, but his most recent comments touched a nerve. Responding to Trump’s threats to take Greenland and tariffs, the Sejm Marshal denounced the president as following a “policy of force” in international affairs, saying it made him unworthy of the Nobel Peace Prize.

“This is a breach of the politics of principles and values, often a breach of international law,” he told reporters.

He also repeatedly bashed Trump’s downplaying of other NATO allies’ roles in the Global War on Terror, framing his criticism of Trump around respect for Polish veterans.

Czarzasty stood defiant after Rose’s rebuke, saying he wouldn’t take back his comments.

“In line with my values, I stood up for Polish soldiers fighting on missions and did not support the nomination of President @realDonaldTrump for the Nobel Peace Prize,” he said in a post on X. “I consistently respect the USA as Poland’s key partner. That is why I regretfully accept the statement by Ambassador Tom Rose, but I will not change my position on these fundamental issues for Polish women and men.”

Tusk stepped into the dispute on X, taking the side of his governing coalition ally.

“Mr. Ambassador Rose, allies should respect each other, not lecture each other,” Tusk said in a post on X. “At least this is how we, here in Poland, understand partnership.”

Rose responded with a lengthy post in a notably more respectful, though still hostile, tone than his post against …

Trump calls for nuclear experts to work on 'new, improved, and modernized treaty'
This feels like a quiet policy shift.

President Donald Trump on Thursday called for U.S. nuclear experts to begin work on what he described as a "new, improved, and modernized Treaty," arguing that the United States should move away from extending the existing New START nuclear arms agreement.
Trump made the remarks in a post on Truth Social as the administration weighs the future of U.S. nuclear arms control policy and whether it will seek to extend or replace New START, the last remaining nuclear arms control treaty between Washington and Moscow.
"Rather than extend ‘NEW START’ (A badly negotiated deal by the United States that, aside from everything else, is being grossly violated), we should have our Nuclear Experts work on a new, improved, and modernized Treaty that can last long into the future," Trump wrote.
"The president wants to have our nuclear experts work on a new, improved and modernized treaty that can last long into the future," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said during a press briefing.  "And that's what the United States will continue to discuss with the Russians."
TRUMP VOWS TO 'KNOCK THE HELL OUT OF' IRAN IF NUCLEAR PROGRAM IS REBUILT AGAIN AFTER HIGH-STAKES MEETING
Trump also made broader claims in his post about his role in preventing nuclear conflict, writing that he stopped "Nuclear Wars from breaking out across the World between Pakistan and India, Iran and Israel, and Russia and Ukraine."
A White House official told Fox News that the Trump administration is still weighing next steps on nuclear arms control and that no final decision has been announced.
"The President will decide the path forward on nuclear arms control, which he will clarify on his own timeline," the official said.
TRUMP STUNS WITH CALL TO RESUME NUCLEAR TESTS — WHY NOW, AND WHAT IT COULD MEAN
The official added that Trump "has spoken repeatedly of addressing the threat nuclear weapons pose to the world and indicated that he would like to keep limits on nuclear weapons and involve China in arms control talks."
Axios reported Thursday that U.S. and Russian officials have been discussing whether both sides could continue to observe the terms of New START after its expiration, citing multiple sources familiar with the talks. The outlet reported that no formal extension has been approved and that any arrangement would not be legally binding.
In his Truth Social post, Trump wrote that the U.S. should pursue a new agreement rather than extend New START.
According to the Associated Press, New START’s expiration leaves no caps on the U.S. and Russia’s nuclear arsenals for the first time in …

Andy Barr surges into GOP polling lead in bid to replace McConnell
Trust is earned, not demanded.

Rep. Andy Barr (R-KY) has taken the lead for the first time in a Republican primary poll for Kentucky‘s Senate race, surpassing former state Attorney General Daniel Cameron, who has held the polling edge since December 2024.

Barr, Cameron, and businessman Nate Morris are facing off in a competitive GOP primary to see who will compete in the general election and likely replace retiring Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY). The primary has gone without an endorsement from President Donald Trump as the three candidates seek to tie themselves to Trump’s agenda while distancing themselves from McConnell.

The new Emerson College poll, sponsored by Nexstar, is the first independent pollster flagged by The New York Times on the 2026 Republican Senate primary in Kentucky. The poll shows the three Republican candidates locked in a close race, with 38% of voters still undecided.

Barr is ahead with 24% of the vote, Cameron is close behind with 21% of the vote, and Morris is polling at 14%. Four percent of Kentucky GOP voters polled support “other” candidates, such as small business owner Michael Faris, who remains in the race. Emerson College polled about 1,000 Kentucky voters from Jan. 31 through Feb. 2.

“With just over three months until primary day, Rep. Barr and former Attorney General Cameron start this race as frontrunners, while Nate Morris follows within striking distance,” said Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling.

The poll follows the Federal Election Commission’s release of 2025 year-end fundraising numbers for the race, which showed Barr pulling away in cash. Barr finished 2025 with $6.47 million in cash on hand, Morris held $1.42 million in cash on hand, and Cameron had just over $630,000 in cash on hand.

But lying in the background is a $10 million donation that Elon Musk made to Morris’s super PAC in mid-January, which is sure to impact the race.

Cameron’s team is bashing the Emerson College poll. Early Republican-sponsored polls, including those run by Barr and Morris affiliates, have shown Cameron in the lead by between seven and 26 points.

“No one — including Andy Barr — thinks Andy Barr is winning. This poll is unserious and silly,” Cameron campaign manager Nathanael Hirt told the Washington Examiner. “Polls one day ago and two weeks ago showed Daniel up double digits. Nothing moves that fast except lies.

Barr campaign spokesman Alex Bellizzi said the poll “shows what Kentuckians have been seeing on the ground for months: …

Paul Weiss chairman resigns after DOJ files reveals contact with Epstein after conviction
Is this competence or optics?

The chairman of one of the country’s most prestigious law firms stepped down after newly released government files indicated he maintained communication with Jeffrey Epstein years after the deceased financier registered as a sex offender. 

“Leading Paul, Weiss for the past 18 years has been the honor of my professional life,” Brad Karp, who heads Paul Weiss, said in a statement released Wednesday night. “Recent reporting has created a distraction and has placed a focus on me that is not in the best interests of the firm.”

Documents released by the Department of Justice last week show that Karp and Epstein maintained communications as recently as 2019, the year Epstein died, and roughly a decade after he registered as a sex offender in 2008. Emails reported by the Financial Times and Bloomberg Law detail some of those communications. Epstein built relationships with a range of notable figures in the United States and worldwide throughout his enigmatic career, including Harvard leadership, Hollywood celebrities, scientists, prominent politicians, and figures such as President Donald Trump and former President Bill Clinton. 

Karp was appointed chairman in 2008 and has been at Paul Weiss for over four decades. He will remain at the firm, though Scott Barshay, the previous chairman of the Paul Weiss corporate department, has been appointed chairman effective immediately. The law firm is the same one targeted by the Trump administration last year after being accused of targeting conservatives and pursuing “unlawful” diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Trump cut federal ties with the firm before Karp cut a deal with the White House, restoring the relationship. 

One email Karp sent to Epstein in July 2015 thanked him for being “an extraordinary host.” The email referenced a dinner with Woody Allen and Karp.

“Jeffrey, I can’t thank you enough for including me in an evening I’ll never forget. It was truly ‘once in a lifetime’ in every way, though I hope to be invited again. You are an extraordinary host — and your home . . .!!!” Karp wrote the day after the scheduled dinner.

“There are many many nights of unique talents. you will be invited often,” Epstein replied. 

Another email from the DOJ indicated Karp asked Epstein in 2016 if he could find a role for his son in a Woody Allen film. Karp told Epstein that his son “doesn’t need to be paid and he’s a really good, talented kid.” “I will ask, of course,” Epstein replied. “Can you tell me what role …

Trump claims DNI Tulsi Gabbard was at Georgia election hub search because AG Pam Bondi wanted her there
This looks less like justice and more like strategy.

President Donald Trump addressed a recent controversy over Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard's presence at an FBI search of the Fulton County Election Hub and Operation Center in Georgia.
"She took a lot of heat two days ag,o because she went in at Pam's insistence. She went in, and she looked at votes ... because Pam wanted her to do it," Trump said, referring to Attorney General Pam Bondi, while speaking at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday.
The president went on to slam critics who said that Gabbard's presence during the FBI search was inappropriate and outside of her job description.
GEORGIA'S FULTON COUNTY FILES MOTION SEEKING RETURN OF 2020 ELECTION MATERIALS SEIZED BY FBI
Trump had previously spoken about the controversy at the premiere of first lady Melania Trump's movie "MELANIA" at The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center For The Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. He defended Gabbard and said she was "working very hard on trying to keep the election safe."
In a letter to Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chair Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., and House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn, which was obtained exclusively by Fox News Digital, Gabbard said that Trump had "specifically directed" her to be present at the raid. The letter was written in response to one that Warner and Himes sent in late January, in which they requested Gabbard brief them on why she was present at the FBI search.
KASH PATEL CONFIRMS FBI HAD 'PROBABLE CAUSE' FOR FULTON COUNTY ELECTION HUB RAID
In the letter, Gabbard said that her "presence was requested by the President and executed under my broad statutory authority to coordinate, integrate, and analyze intelligence related to election security, including counterintelligence (CI), foreign and other malign influence, and cybersecurity."
"The FBI’s Intelligence/Counterintelligence divisions are one of the 18 elements that I oversee," she said.
Additionally, Gabbard said in the letter that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence's (ODNI) Office of General Counsel found that her actions had been "well within my statutory authority."
Gabbard announced in April 2025 that the ODNI was investigating electronic voting systems.
On Jan. 28, the FBI searched Fulton County’s main election facility in Union City, near Atlanta, for records connected to the 2020 election. The county's officials have since filed a motion seeking the return of the 2020 ballots and other documents seized during the search.
The motion, which remains under seal, asks a federal court to compel the …

Businessman Rick Caruso considers running for LA mayor in wake of Palisades Fire report
This deserves loud pushback.

Businessman Rick Caruso, who last month announced that he would not seek elected office after an unsuccessful run against Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, indicated this week that he is reconsidering in light of new allegations that Bass pushed for a report on the Palisades Fire to be watered down.
Caruso, who lost the 2022 Los Angeles mayoral contest to Bass, slammed the mayor in a Wednesday post on X.
"Today’s @latimes report is an absolute outrage. Karen Bass actively covered up a report meant to examine the most significant disaster in Los Angeles history. When it comes to life safety matters, this is no longer a matter of making poor judgement, apologizing and moving forward," Caruso asserted in the post. 
PALISADES FIRE DISASTER PUSHES RING TO CLOSE CRITICAL GAPS IN EMERGENCY VISIBILITY
"This is a complete loss of public trust and an intentional act of covering up the actions that led to people dying. Everyone should read this article and consider what action is warranted. She has completely failed us," he added.
In a statement issued last month, Caruso had said that he "decided not to pursue elected office at this time."
But he indicated to KTTV on Wednesday that he was reconsidering based on the Los Angeles Times report.
Asked if he was reconsidering his decision, Caruso told the outlet that he was "certainly thinking about it."
Asked if it was the article on Wednesday that made him reconsider, he said, "Yeah, yeah. Because incompetence is one thing. But it's very different to mix incompetence, and now you've got somebody who is actively lying to the people that she has sworn to serve," Caruso said.
TRUMP VOWS TO BLOCK LOW-INCOME HOUSING IN PACIFIC PALISADES: ‘I’M NOT GOING TO ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN'
Sources reportedly told the Times that two individuals close to the mayor informed them about Bass' part in watering down the fire report. The newspaper noted that one source claimed to have spoken with both individuals, while the other source claimed to have spoken with one of the individuals. The Times reported that one person asserted to one of the sources that "the mayor didn’t tell the truth when she said she had nothing to do with changing the report."
The mayor's office blasted the Times' report in a statement to Fox News Digital.
"Mayor Bass has been unequivocal for months — she reviewed an early draft of the report and only asked the LAFD to make sure it was accurate on issues like weather and budget. She and her staff made no changes to the drafts," the statement provided to Fox News Digital asserted.

Jeffries risks fresh fracture with Schumer over ICE funding red line
Same show, different day.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) could be on another collision course with Senate Democrats over how to handle the next fight over government funding as Republicans ask for more time to negotiate a deal on the Department of Homeland Security.

Senate Democrats have not ruled out a temporary funding patch for DHS, even as Jeffries and many of his Democratic colleagues in the House are refusing to extend the deadline for two or more weeks.

Jeffries argues that Republicans, staring down a Feb. 13 deadline, have enough time to agree to reform immigration enforcement. Senate Democrats, though, are more open to keeping DHS limping along if the White House appears to be making a good-faith effort in budget talks.

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA), one of eight Senate Democrats to help end last year’s record-setting government shutdown, sidestepped whether his party should let DHS lapse at the end of next week.

“Rather than assume the lack of success, let’s try to work for success, and then if we can’t get there, then we’ll see,” Kaine told the Washington Examiner.

Some centrist Senate Democrats have also encouraged colleagues to “keep as many options on the table as possible.” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), for his part, has shown a greater willingness to cut a deal and brokered an initial two-week extension with President Donald Trump last week, but so far won’t tip his hand on Jeffries’s red line.

Democrats are still in the early stages of negotiating with the White House, releasing a list of reforms on Wednesday night meant to rein in DHS after federal agents killed two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis.

But they will quickly have to decide whether to keep the department open or risk a partial shutdown at the end of next week, with Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) preparing to file a funding patch Monday or sooner.

The rest of the government has been funded through September, but Congress punted the question of DHS, which covers emergency response management and airport security on top of immigration enforcement, until mid-February as part of a larger spending bill.

Jeffries can more easily reject another extension, given that House Republicans can move legislation at a simple majority, and he’s broken with Schumer twice before — last March, when Schumer handed Thune the votes to avert a shutdown, and again this week.

Senate Democrats do not have the same luxury, however, thanks to the 60-vote filibuster threshold, and must agree to …

Arctic blast fuels scrutiny of Biden’s $8B electric bus push as watchdogs cite oversight failures
This deserves loud pushback.

EXCLUSIVE: The Arctic blast that snowed in much of the East exposed not only the need for road salt but also the possibility that untold taxpayer dollars were wasted on risky electric bus subsidy programs under the Biden administration, according to critics of those initiatives.
That’s the claim from Power the Future, a top energy advocacy and watchdog group that also compared the disbursement of more than $8 billion over at least two related federal subsidy programs to oversight failures by the Minnesota government involving its Medicaid and childcare entitlement crises recently exposed.
E-buses have been purchased by transit agencies in part through a "Low-No" emissions grant program mainly through the Federal Transit Administration that received a $1.6 billion infusion during the Biden years.
DEM-APPOINTED EDUCATION OFFICIALS FACE NEW SCRUTINY AS FEEDING OUR FUTURE SCANDAL WIDENS, TRUMP TARGETS FRAUD
"Given the scale of this investment, there must be an examination into whether taxpayers are receiving the reliable, deployable transit assets capable of serving the communities for which they were funded," Turner said.
Similarly, PTF highlighted a 2024 EPA Inspector General audit that found the agency failed to meaningfully track the deployment of electric school buses under a 2022 rebate program through which $836 million was handed out by federal officials.
Only about 7% of participating school districts had completed the processes needed to put the buses into service, such as installing charging infrastructure.
"When hundreds of millions of dollars are awarded without confirmation that buses are delivered, operable, or in service, the absence of oversight echoes the failures that are being highlighted in Minnesota," PTF wrote.
PTF said the Biden administration’s "broader record" on "green infrastructure" spending is further exposed by these and other disbursements and requires Zeldin’s immediate attention.
They cited an additional $7.5 billion spent on the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program, under which fewer than 400 charging ports were built as of late.
"When this failure is viewed alongside electric buses that cannot operate in cold weather, school buses that sit idle, and grants producing little to no functional infrastructure, a troubling pattern emerges," PTF said.
"Taken together, these outcomes raise the same red flags now familiar from the Minnesota daycare fraud scandal: large federal payouts with minimal verification, poor oversight, and taxpayers left holding the bill."

Bessent takes flak from Democrats over affordability in Senate hearing
This is performative politics again.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent faced questions about inflation and affordability during a Thursday hearing before the Senate, as Democrats work to blame the Trump administration for the dissatisfaction felt by households.

Bessent appeared before the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, where he presented the Financial Stability Oversight Council’s 2025 Annual Report. Democrats on the panel used the opportunity to push Bessent on cost-of-living-related issues.

DEMOCRATS GRILL BESSENT OVER ALLEGATIONS OF GRIFTING IN TRUMP ADMINISTRATION

Ranking member Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) pointed out that President Donald Trump ran in 2024 on lowering prices on Day One.

“One year in, affordability is the top concern for Americans across the country,” she said. “Donald Trump has called affordability, I want to get this right, a ‘hoax.’ He’s called it a ‘scam.’ He’s called it a ‘con job.’”

Bessent said that what Trump meant is that the media is fraudulently putting the onus for inflation on the Trump administration, rather than the Biden administration.

“So there is an affordability crisis, and you were front and center in it,” he retorted.

Warren then began drilling Bessent on whether grocery prices had dropped in 2025. He responded that “numerous” grocery prices have gone down, but Warren pointed out that overall grocery prices rose 2.4% last year, above the 2% level that the Federal Reserve considers healthy.

“If you’re just going to insult people by denying the facts that are out there and tell people they’re doing great when they’re struggling, I think there’s just another way to say you don’t have a plan to bring down these prices,” she said.

Inflation and cost-of-living concerns are still weighing heavily on consumers, who have been grappling with the cumulative effects of years of too-high inflation, which began spiking during the COVID-19 pandemic recovery under former President Joe Biden.

During the hearing, Bessent placed the blame for the current situation with inflation at Biden’s feet and pointed out that there have been declines in inflation under the Trump administration. He noted how much the most closely watched inflation gauge, the consumer price index, increased under Trump’s predecessor.

“During Joe Biden’s tenure, CPI was 4.7% in an annualized basis, cumulative CPI was 21.5%, there was a loss of real purchasing power for working families,” Bessent said. “Thus far, we’ve seen an increase in real wages, CPI for 2025 was …

Newsom’s book tour tests red state Democrats’ appetite for California politics ahead of 2028
Why resist verification?

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) is set to launch a book tour later this month, making his first stops in red states ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.

The governor, widely viewed as a possible contender in the 2028 Democratic presidential race, has framed his memoir tour as an opportunity to connect with voters in parts of the country where Democrats have struggled in presidential and midterm elections.

Newsom will begin the tour later this month to promote his new memoir, Young Man in a Hurry: A Memoir of Discovery, ahead of its Feb. 24 release date. Newsom will give Southerners a taste of his California politics in Nashville, Tennessee, before heading to Atlanta, Georgia, and Rock Hill, South Carolina.

Other tour stops include New York and cities in Newsom’s home state, including San Francisco and Los Angeles.

The first three states Newsom plans to visit all voted for President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.

Newsom will likely find more friends than foes in Nashville and Atlanta, as both cities voted primarily for former Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024.

Rock Hill voters sided with Trump, although the city is less than 30 miles from blue-voting Charlotte, North Carolina.

Newsom said his memoir will cover his early life and his time as mayor and governor. He told the Democratic National Committee that it is not a “politician’s book,” but its release comes as Democrats are gearing up for midterm elections.

Hitting the South on a book tour is not a unique play by Newsom. Harris has also been traveling extensively on her own book tour for 107 Days, a memoir detailing her 2024 presidential campaign.

Harris’s tour, which began last year, was recently extended to visit several swing states and South Carolina.

The strategies implemented by Newsom and Harris aim to sustain engagement in the South and other areas critical to national political races.

National political strategists have categorized book tours as a way for political figures to tell their stories or to introduce themselves to possible voters.

Newsom and Harris are among a field of well-known Democrats who have written books and are heading on tour.

BOOKS BY POLITICIANS TO LOOK OUT FOR IN 2026 AHEAD OF MIDTERM ELECTIONS

Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) announced a tour promoting his book, Stand, which he said “offers a hopeful and urgent call to action rooted in enduring American ideals.” It will be released on March 24.

Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA) launched his first memoir, titled …

House GOP moves to require proof of citizenship, photo ID to vote in federal election
Are they actually going to vote on something real?

House GOP leaders are forging ahead on legislation aimed at imposing new federal guardrails to ensure only U.S. citizens vote in national elections.
House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., confirmed to Fox News Digital that the chamber would vote on the SAVE America Act introduced by Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, next week.
It comes after conservatives threatened to extend the partial government shutdown earlier this week if the legislation was not included in Congress' bipartisan funding bills. But those lawmakers backed off their demands after getting assurances from the White House that the Senate would give the bill serious consideration.
SENATE REPUBLICANS PUSH TO DEPORT, DENATURALIZE FRAUDSTERS AMID MINNESOTA SCANDAL
The House's vote next week hikes the growing pressure on the Senate to take up the bill, where it will face long odds of passing. Its backers are hoping a little-known maneuver called a "standing filibuster" will be key to breaking through Democratic opposition, however. 
"These are common-sense measures that protect American voters," Scalise explained to Fox News Digital on Thursday.
"Only Democrats in Congress could oppose these basic requirements that prevent voter fraud, and that’s because they want illegal aliens to vote in our elections. Why else would they support open borders, oppose deporting illegal aliens, and oppose election security like picture ID?"
The SAVE America Act is an updated version of Roy's Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which passed the House in April 2025 but was never taken up in the Senate.
Whereas the SAVE Act would create a new federal proof of citizenship mandate in the voter registration process and impose requirements for states to keep their rolls clear of ineligible voters, the updated bill would also require photo ID to vote in any federal elections.
"It's all the same concept, right? I mean, you want citizenship, and then you want to guarantee that the person voting is the person voting. Photo ID is, I think, a critically important element to that, and we want to require that for federal elections," Roy told Fox News Digital on Thursday.
SCHUMER FACES BACKLASH AFTER CALLING SAVE ACT 'JIM CROW' DESPITE PREVIOUS ALLEGATION FALLING FLAT
The bill is expected to easily pass the House — the original SAVE Act got support from all Republicans and four Democrats — but its survival in the Senate is more complicated.
Most legislation needs 60 votes to break through a filibuster, meaning at least seven Democrats will need to vote with Republicans to advance the bill. 
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, …

Nancy Pelosi swipes at Trump, accusing him of crowning himself as 'king'
Are they actually going to vote on something real?

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi took a jab at President Donald Trump during a speech on Wednesday, saying that he "crowned himself king."
During her remarks at the Washington Press Club Foundation's annual congressional dinner, Pelosi claimed that the nation "is in a crisis of conscience."
She said the country's president "has crowned himself king," the nation's Congress has "abolished itself" and the U.S. Supreme Court "has gone rogue."
