Former U.S. President Donald Trump is making headlines again, after his outlandish claims at the annual CPAC meet

At this year’s annual Conservative Political Action conference, CPAC, Conservatives showed their loyalty to Donald Trump, as preferred Presidential candidate for 2024.

A straw poll shows Trump as favourite, followed by Florida’s Ron DeSantis and Senator Ted Cruz in third.

The former President used the platform to slam the Democratic party on issues of education, inflation and the transgender debate.

Hungarian leader Viktor Orban also laid out his political views to the American right, and they loved it.

In concluding the conference, Trump boasted to attendees that majority of them use Truth Social, coming in second to Facebook. However, this was after making them complete a survey on what platforms they use.

Viral moment

The entire conference included outlandish claims in true Trump style. However, it was the moment Trump tried to kiss swimmer Riley Gaines on stage that has everyone talking.

Senate upholds vote to release Epstein files despite White House delay attempt; Trump signals intent to sign bill.

The White House tried to delay a vote on the release of Justice Department files connected to Jeffrey Epstein, even as former President Trump insisted there was nothing to hide.

Despite this, the Senate approved the measure exactly as it passed the House, ignoring amendments proposed by Trump’s aides. This move clears the path for the files to be made public in full.

Trump has indicated he intends to sign the bill, marking a significant shift after the White House’s attempt to block or delay the vote proved unsuccessful. The decision could have wide-reaching implications for transparency and ongoing investigations.
