These days, the news cycle seems to be spinning even quicker than before. The headlines we see are because of the constant news about the new Republican administration with Donald Trump at its helm.
President Donald Trump has been under scrutiny recently, much like any President is. People tend to focus on his every word and move. Before his speech in front of Congress, the President said something to Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, an action which raised a lot of eyebrows.
Earlier this week, Trump delivered his presidential speech to Congress, mentioning Vladimir Putin and the ‘strong signals’ he had given to the US for peace. Trump also mentioned the letter Ukraine’s President, Volodymyr Zelensky had written him
While the speech made many headlines, something that preceded it raised many eyebrows. President Trump had an exchange with Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, with a camera catching the President saying thank you. Some theories that have come out since then about the interaction, with people speculating about what he could be thanking the Justice for.
But before any of the theories could take hold, President Donald Trump took to the platform Truth Social and wrote, “The Fake ‘Play the Ref’ News, in order to create a divide between me and our great U.S. Supreme Court, heard me say last night, loudly and openly as I was walking past the Justices on the way to the podium, ‘thank you’, to Chief Justice John Roberts.”
He continued, “Like most people, I don’t watch Fake News CNN or MSDNC, but I understand they are going ‘crazy’ asking what is it that I was thanking Justice Roberts for?”
