Trump took to primetime from the White House in a rare national address that signaled the opening moves of the 2026 political battle. Framed as both a progress report and a warning shot, the speech laid out what Trump described as the most consequential stretch of governance in modern American history. Speaking directly to the nation, Trump highlighted what he called his administration’s biggest victories in just 11 months back in office, arguing that Washington has been reshaped at a pace never seen before. The president also went on offense over rising insurance premiums, squarely blaming Democrats while rejecting any Republican responsibility for the increases. WATCH
