EXCLUSIVE: A White House Official tells me the Administration cleared all the hurdles holding up Senators' votes for the Rate Payer Protection Act. Senator Martin Heinrich told the administration these were concerns of his preventing a yes vote. - The White House Official says the Department of War has cleared the first tranche of wind mill projects in the clearinghouse. - The Official says consistent with litigation the War Department advanced wind projects in Maine and South Dakota after undergoing a review and determining they pose no national security threat. There are more projects expected to be cleared in the coming weeks after the proper reviews. - The White House Official says there is nothing left for Senators to do, but vote on the Ratepayer Protection Act. A Senior Administration Official tells me that Act will require data centers to provide their own electricity making sure costs are not passed on. The Official tells me the Act has much needed permit reforms to move pipeline projects forward lowering energy costs long term. #Energy #RatepayerProtectAct #Congress #POTUS #Prices

That cow was really mooooving. This is utterly incredible.

Still a win overall.

President Trump says his recovery / restoration program for cybercrimes and scams has recovered close to $1 billion for Americans. The President says his Administration has prevented another $1.6 billion in losses.

The East Room decked out for an announcement by POTUS

Treasury Department announces it is sanctioning what looks like a legitimate maritime network, but Treasury believes it supports Iran's "shadow fleet". The announcement today is sanctioning a law firm that Treasury says helped set up the shadow fleet network. FinCEN also issued the first administration subpoena under the Bank Secrecy Act for more information related to a bank in Greece that may have helped support Iran's shadow fleet. 6 European banks have also been asked for more information related to dealings with Iran. #Iran #Oil

State of sanctions play on Russia: Currently, Treasury issued a general license to allow the sale of Russian diesel fuel now through 12:01a April 7, 2027. In a separate issue the 30 day clock, started when POTUS signed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia Act of 2026, ended this past weekend. The law would have to be implemented. However, sources tell me the Administration needed more time to write all the legal stuff to make sure the sanctions in the Law targeted the right areas. Because of that POTUS signed an Executive Order Friday pushing back implementation of the Law until mid-December to allow the correct language to be composed fitting the spirit of the law. The feeling within the Administration is that it was bad timing of the 30 day clock running out this weekend and this is getting conflated with the diesel sanctions beging lifted temporarily. #Russia #Ukraine #POTUS #Sanctions

A source familiar with the plans tells FOX that Vice President Vance and the Second Lady are hosting Katie Zacharia and her family for dinner tonight. @VP
