Trump proclaims ‘failing’ New York Times has no credibility, ‘running on past fumes’
President Donald Trump called out the “failing” New York Times for “running on past fumes” during a Monday press conference at the White House.
“Failing, failing!” Trump said. “Circulation way down at the New York Times. What’s going on with that?”
His comments came after New York Times reporter Zolan Kanno-Youngs asked the president whether he believed his threats to bomb Iranian structures would constitute a war crime. Kanno-Youngs had to repeat the question before Trump responded.
“No, not at all. No, no I’m not. I hope I don’t have to do it,” Trump responded. “But, again, I just said, 47 years they’ve been negotiating with these people.”
Trump reiterated his goal to prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapon before attempting to move on to another reporter. When Kanno-Youngs tried to follow up with another question, Trump cut him off.
“You no longer have credibility at The New York Times because The New York Times said, ‘Oh, Trump won’t win the election,’ and I won in a landslide, I won every swing state. The New York Times said, ‘Oh, Trump won’t win the election.’ The New York Times has no credibility. The credibility they have is it used to be all the news that’s fit to print. The Old Gray Lady. It was great. But they’re running on past fumes, and you can’t keep doing that. You have to be able to give the correct news and people like you, who I know, are fake. You’re fake!” Trump said.
In a comment to Fox News Digital, a New York Times spokesperson argued that the publication reported on Trump potentially winning the 2024 presidential election and posted links along with a statement.
“President Trump’s derisive comments to a New York Times reporter today are the latest example in his pattern of answering fair questions with inaccurate attacks. Contrary to the president’s false claims, our extensive reporting and polling during the 2024 presidential campaign captured the race in full, including his advantages. Mr. Trump himself celebrated this polling and reporting numerous times,” the statement read.

The statement continued, “We ask questions of elected leaders to hold them accountable to the public they serve. Our entire White House team—including the talented journalist who posed questions to Mr. Trump today—reports with the same rigor and scrutiny on all who hold the office.”
This was the second time Trump attacked The New York Times in less than a week after the paper published an erroneous headline referring to NATO as the “North American Treaty Organization” instead of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
“The Failing New York Times, whose lack of credibility, and their constant Fake News attacks on your favorite President, ME, has caused its circulation to absolutely PLUMMET, referred to our severely weakened and extremely unreliable ‘partner,’ NATO, as the North American Treaty Organization. The correct name is the North Atlantic Treaty Organization – A very interesting mistake! The hiring and educational standards have gone way down at the NYT. Bring back, ‘ALL THE NEWS THAT’S FIT TO PRINT’ and, Make America Great Again!” Trump wrote on Truth Social Saturday.

Vanderbilt heiress Belle Burden warns of financial ‘red flags’ she missed during marriage to hedge fund exec
Belle Burden is issuing a warning based on the “red flags” she experienced in her marriage.
Burden, a Vanderbilt heiress whose new book, “Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage,” details her bitter divorce from hedge fund executive Henry Davis, ignored several issues in her marriage, and she’s detailing some big ones in a new interview.
During an appearance on the “Financial Tea with Mrs. Dow Jones” podcast, the author described the way Davis handled the couple’s money. She explained that she gave up her career in corporate law to raise their three children and let him focus on his growing career in finance — and in doing so, she let him control their bank accounts completely.
“I think that there was something romantic, almost, about handing this over to him,” Burden admitted. “He was like the man in the gray flannel suit who had arrived. And he said to me, ‘I’m going to take care of you.’ So there was something that felt, like, wonderful about that.”
The foundation of this idea, handing over control of finances to Davis, happened early on in their relationship.
Burden had generational wealth from both sides of her family, and when she was younger, she signed a contract with her mother ensuring that she’d sign a prenup when she married. She had two trust funds, which were both protected in case of divorce, and she didn’t personally want a prenup, but the contract forced her hand.
Davis suggested a specific amendment to the draft her lawyer had sent ahead of the wedding: instead of splitting everything equally if they were to divorce, he wanted them each to keep what they had in their own names and split anything in both of their names.
NEW YORK HEIRESS BELLE BURDEN RECOUNTS THE VOICEMAIL THAT TORCHED HER HUSBAND’S DOUBLE LIFE: MEMOIR
Burden wrote in her book that when she told her lawyer about the change, he “told me it was a bad idea; it was standard to share in what was earned during a marriage, both by [Davis] and by me … It was fair. I made the counterargument, repeating the words [Davis] had given to me to explain why we should make the change. Finally, [the lawyer] said, ‘Okay, Belle, if this is what you want.'”
She admitted to feeling a “wave of anxiety,” but went through with the amended prenup because she trusted Davis.
As she said on “Mrs. Dow Jones,” another factor was the couple’s “financial inequity.” She “wanted to make him feel good and feel important” — his family was “essentially broke” when he was growing up, and it wasn’t until after they were married that his career took off — and in doing that, she made herself smaller so he could “feel bigger.”
Then, after they had their first child, and she gave up her full-time work to be a mother, another factor came into play.
“Over the course of our marriage, as I kind of handed [the financial control] off to him, you start to, or I started to believe I couldn’t understand it, even though I’m a former corporate lawyer. I paid our bills, and I signed our tax returns, but I didn’t read them and I didn’t ask him what his bonuses were. And I just trusted and trusted and trusted. And I thought, ‘Oh, it’s just so complicated. Only he can understand it.'”
In addition to not looking at the tax returns, Burden explained that a bookkeeper had kept track of every single charge she made on the couple’s credit cards.
“It was like a subtle thing that feels protective, like he was very, like, had a strong hand on our spending … did not want us to spend too much, which felt like protection,” she said. “But the flip side of that is that it is controlling, it’s really controlling … it just was like these eyes on me. And I didn’t have the same eyes on him.”
She didn’t find out until the divorce proceedings that over the course of their marriage, he’d amassed “at least eight figures of wealth.”

When Haley Sacks, the host of the podcast better known by her Mrs. Dow Jones moniker, asked if she would see it as a red flag in a future relationship if someone acted the way Davis did in the beginning, she was quick to agree.
“I think it’s a real red flag,” she said. “I don’t think I will get married again. I feel like the idea of co-mingling assets again is really unappealing to me. I’m so happy being in control of my own. So if I was in another relationship, I think I would keep it very separate. But yes, I do see it as a red flag. And I think it doesn’t mean your husband is going to walk out the way mine did, but if you ask the questions and ask to be included and ask to understand where the assets are and whose name is on them, and they don’t want to tell you, that is a real red flag. And you should really talk to a professional to try and understand what’s going on financially in your marriage.”
In March 2020, when Burden, Davis and two of their three children were quarantining in their Martha’s Vineyard home at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Burden got a phone call from a man saying that his wife was having an affair with her husband. Davis was apologetic at first, but the next morning, he told her he wanted a divorce.
“I try to hold both things in my head, that we really loved each other and had a very happy marriage for a long period of time,” she said, “but that he was pretty much programmed from long before the time he met me to really protect himself financially. And I think that was at play in the prenup. I think that was at play at every stage in our marriage. And I think that when he earned money, like when he got a bonus, there was no part of him that was ever going to put it into a joint name.”
“You were using your trust to pay for the children’s school, for the houses,” Sacks pointed out. “And he was building like a vintage Rolex collection.”
Burden wrote briefly about the Rolex collection in her book, claiming that, under his watchful eye, she put purchases like birthday presents for the children and clothes for herself on her personal credit card that he didn’t monitor, and her family paid school tuition and made college funds for the kids, while he spent money on things like “a dozen rare Rolex watches, several motorcycles, rare coins, custom suits from Zegna, a small vintage boat that had been used in ‘Live and Let Die,’ and expensive red wine, hundreds of bottles.”
The book is also where she wrote about using her trusts to purchase the family’s two homes — homes she went through extra effort to make sure were in Davis’ name as well.
In 2001, they bought a four-bedroom apartment in Manhattan, something that was “much bigger” than she thought they needed, but that Davis loved. She emptied one of her two trusts to purchase it and listed Davis as a joint owner, “even though he had not contributed to the purchase.” She said she was happy to do it.
A few years later, she used her second trust to purchase a summer home in Martha’s Vineyard. Davis had gone to look at it alone, and he’d loved it, so she wired him the funds from the trust, emptying it completely, and, as with the apartment, she made sure Davis was listed as a joint owner of the property.
Burden told Sacks that she’d had to write a formal letter to the trustees of her trusts to release the funds so she could make the purchases — another option would have been to simply buy the homes with the trusts so they would have stayed protected, but she felt like it was important for Davis’ name to be on the deeds as well.
“I felt like I was doing something so important for our marriage, for our family, that I was curing something for him,” she said.
It wouldn’t be until after Davis filed for divorce and requested the prenup be enforced that she realized the situation she was in.
In their initial conversations after she learned of the affair, she wrote in “Strangers” that he’d told her she could keep the apartment, the house and custody of their three children. While he continually refused any custody throughout the divorce proceedings and after, the enforcement of the prenup meant that while she wouldn’t be able to touch anything he’d earned in his very successful career, he would be entitled to half of the two homes.
Burden called Davis to talk to him about this after receiving a summons from court. She wrote that during the call, she asked, “Why are you doing this to me?” to which he answered, “I’m not doing anything to you.”
“I said, ‘You left us. You’ve never told me why,'” she recalled. “His voice was calm, cold. ‘I didn’t leave you. I changed residences.'”
She wrote that she felt herself “losing control” at that response, and started sobbing and telling him that he had left her and their children. In response, “he said, in a singsong voice, like a taunting child, ‘Boo-hoo. Poor Belle. Always the victim.'”
Later, she made the decision to file a counterclaim that would fight the prenup — for years, she said she and Davis agreed they should amend the prenup “since it was no longer fair” to her, given her decision to give up her career while his took off. They never went through the process, and when push came to shove, she couldn’t afford to buy Davis out of the two homes, meaning she’d be forced to sell both.

Six months later, a judge dismissed the counterclaim and enforced the prenup, then set a trial date to resolve the issue of child support and their joint property. Davis, Burden wrote, hadn’t brought up her counterclaim in the months after she initially filed it, but after it was dismissed, he was “inflamed by it.”
“He said he would give me only the minimum child support required by law,” she claimed. “He said I would have to face the consequences of the prenup, of my failed counterclaim.”
She grappled with the idea of her children losing the homes they’d known all their lives and with losing what her family had left to her, as well as her own financial security.
“There was no reason for it, given [Davis’] resources, given his desire to shed, given his refusal to make a home for the kids,” she wrote. “It felt like he was playing a game, or running a deal, one he was going to win at all costs, by a wide margin, regardless of the impact on me and our children.”
In the end, an hour before their trial was to begin in October 2021, Burden and Davis reached a settlement on their own. He negotiated the terms, and she said that she “had to be calm, deferential, grateful,” and that if she got her lawyer involved or “pushed him,” he would withdraw the offer altogether.
He gave up his interest in the two properties they owned and agreed to child support and to pay the children’s medical expenses and school tuition. Meanwhile, he’d keep all the money he’d earned throughout their marriage.
“I don’t know what finally made him decide to settle,” Burden admitted. “I have several guesses, but I will never know for sure. Maybe he always planned to resolve it before trial, to give me the house and the apartment. But only after he brought me to my knees.”
She told Sacks, “I had given up the fantasy of having any settlement from him, because he was not going to give me any of his money … I don’t spend a lot of time thinking about what I didn’t get or what was lost financially. I really just focus on what I have now.”

Chicago’s deadly sanctuary madness is costing innocent Americans their lives
“Law and order” is not an abstract political slogan. Without it, you do not have a civilized society. When law and order breaks down, it is the innocent who pay the price first, whether they live on the South Side, Rogers Park or anywhere in Chicago that we call home. Without it, we do not have community. We have fear and chaos. Without it, we do not have justice. We have death and, in some cases, retaliation.
I’m continuing on my Walk Across America. I was not in Chicago when I heard the news that 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman, a Loyola University freshman from New York, was gunned down in cold blood. The man who is accused of killing her is Jose Medina-Medina, a 25-year-old Venezuelan national who entered our nation illegally in 2023. He had previous arrests for shoplifting, and yet he was released onto the streets because our sanctuary politics favor illegal immigrants over law-abiding citizens.
This death comes a year after the senseless death of Katie Abraham in Urbana, Illinois. That 20-year-old girl was sitting in the back of a car at a red light in the middle of the night when a truck driven by an illegal immigrant smashed into her at 80 miles per hour. For over a year, I watched her courageous father, Joe Abraham, do everything he could to warn elected officials that their sanctuary city policies would lead to the death of more innocents.
They ignored him. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker ignored him. They all ignored him.
They valued the White-guilt virtue they believed they gained from allowing illegal immigrants into their city, unvetted and unassimilated. They didn’t care about Katie.
And now Sheridan is dead.
This is not an isolated heartbreak. This is the fruit of a city, and a nation, that has let lawlessness fester.
On the South Side, we have lived with it for years: open-air drug markets, gang shootings that turn playgrounds into war zones and politicians who lecture us about “equity” while the body count rises. We watched as certain criminals were coddled, released and protected while the Black families trying to raise children in peace paid the ultimate price. Now that same infestation of lawlessness has spread. The same lack of order that destroyed so many Black neighborhoods is now claiming the lives of other Chicagoans, young people from every background who simply wanted to walk by our city’s lake without fearing the deadly shock of a bullet.
SLAIN DC INTERN’S MOM URGES SHERIDAN GORMAN’S FAMILY TO ‘FIGHT BACK’ AFTER OBITUARY OLIVE BRANCH
What began as a crisis in our Black communities is now a citywide epidemic, proving once more that bad policy has no respect for ZIP codes or skin color. Every Chicagoan deserves a city where the police are empowered, borders are respected and criminals are put in prison instead of being released.
That is exactly why I am still walking these streets and why I am pouring my life into building our Project H.O.P.E. community center on the South Side. I am not building another warehouse for excuses or government handouts. I am building a place that teaches young people the God-given value of work, responsibility and respect for the law.

I want to welcome free thinkers who understand that safety is not optional and that no community can thrive when certain criminals are placed above the citizens they prey upon. American principles demand equal justice under the law, not justice for some and leniency for others based on political correctness.
To the families of Katie Abraham and Sheridan Gorman, my heart breaks with yours. I am praying for you and standing with you. And to every leader in my city of Chicago who still defends these sanctuary policies while our streets run with blood, I say, repent.
Put the citizens first. Enforce the law without apology. Because until we do, the next victim could be any one of our children, walking any street, at any time.
