White House press chief Karoline Leavitt lamented every aspect of President Donald Trump's speech to Congress and denounced the attitudes of Democrats and corporate media on Wednesday.
Many democratic lawmakers stood and praised special guests who appeared at addresses, including a 13-year-old boy struggling with brain cancer, or a high school athlete who suffered brain damage after competing with a man who was identified as transgender. Leavitt denounced Democrats and the corporate media for their criticism of the speech and lack of sympathy for special guests.
“The Democrats' actions last night were totally shameful and showed how strict they were about not being able to contact the American people,” Leavitt said. “It was the most shameful moment in the history of that beautiful room presidential speech. And what appears to be a unified moment for our country was that Congressional Democrats shouted to the US president instead. Democrats didn't stand to keep men out of women's sports. They couldn't even applaud for the girl who slammed their heads on a man on a volleyball court. The Democrats did not represent an innocent, beautiful child surviving brain cancer.”
“They opposed the elimination of taxes on tips and Social Security. They were not supportive of cutting taxes for hardworking Americans. They couldn't even applaud the two mothers whose daughters were killed by illegal foreigners,” the spokesperson continued. “One of the only things that could have been a Democrat last night was to support Ukraine, not America.” (Related: David Axelrod says Dems' antics during Trump's Congress speech “didn't help”)

Corporate media reflected the Democrats' reaction to the address. In particular, MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace became the secret service agent on January 6, 2021, when 13-year-old brain cancer patient Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel blamed Capitol Riot.
“But I hope [Daniel] There's no need to protect the U.S. Capitol from supporters of Donald Trump. If so, I hope he is not one of the six who will lose his life due to suicide.
Leavitt was embarrassed by Wallace's comments and called out CNN for labeling the speech as “divisible” despite stating that he had a “very positive” view of the president's address in the CNN/SSRS investigation.
“The mainstream media hasn't gotten that yet. Last night, MSNBC's Nicole Wallace went into a loop until January 6th, tired of attacking the president a 13-year-old with brain cancer,” Leavitt continued. “In the first Chyron from CNN's speech, we call it “division.” President Trump was not split, Democrats did. And CNN was proven wrong by his own audience. In post-narrative polls, 69% said they had a positive response to the president's speech. It is sad and frankly pathetic that Democrats and Liberals in Legacy Media continue to negate their hatred of the President's love for our country. ”
Democrats threatened to protest the speech before it began. Some people were not present, and others brought props and former federal employees who were fired by government efficiency (DOGE). Hours before the speech, 22 Democrats released the same video on social media about denouncement of the president's economic policies, complaining about how egg prices are rising, and shamed Doge Chairman Elon Musk for shutting down what is called “critical government programs.”
Texas Democrat Al Green was escorted from the floor of the house by law enforcement to get up and scream as Trump tried to give his speech. Many council members too held Sign up while you've read a speech.[Elon] Musk Steele” and “Save Medicaid”.
Trump celebrated the legacy of 22-year-old Laken Riley and 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungarei. The two victims were killed at the hands of illegal immigrants under former President Joe Biden's administration, and their mother was present. The president signed an executive order on Tuesday, renaming the name of Anahuac National Wildlife Reserve after Nungarei to commemorate his love for animals and wildlife.
