Trumps First Week: A Mixed Bag of NUTS!!!

he first week of the Trump presidency is on the books, and it went exactly as should have been expected. The businessman-turned-politician has bucked convention, promulgated falsehoods and begun the work of implementing his agenda.

President Trump’s first foray onto the global stage as president is already a mixed bag. As he hosts British Prime Minister Theresa May to discuss Brexit, Syria, and other global challenges, Trump is still smarting from the cancellation of the planned visit of Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto. The controversy was only heightened after the White House floated and then walked back a proposal for a 20% tax on Mexican imports to pay for the border wall—a plan that would have in effect had American consumers paying for it. But the more protectionist idea is something that the Trump administration is considering, if in an altered form, and signals that his rethinking of American trade policy is coming to fruition.

U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley delivered a warning to foreign countries that the U.S. involvement with the UN is changing.”For those that don’t have our back, we’re taking names,” she said Friday. It comes as the Trump administration seeks to redefine American foreign policy to one of “America First.”

In the 1980’s & 90’s he had a thriving career as a man-on-the-street interviewer for improvised TV and radio campaigns for grocery stores, bank cards, coffee makers, and a host of other clients that won awards for several major advertising agencies.

The 67th annual Grammy Awards proved to be a landmark evening for music industry veterans like Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar, who swept the three biggest categories, as well as rising stars like Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, and Doechii, each of whom took the stage to perform before taking home a prize.

The standout moments at Sunday's ceremony shone a spotlight on fresh talent and big personalities in the industry. However, they were somewhat offset by a handful of uninspired sets.

Sabrina Carpenter was nominated for each of the "Big Four" awards for her masterful pop album "Short n' Sweet," plus best pop vocal album and best pop solo performance for "Espresso," both of which she won.

Thankfully, the Grammys gave Carpenter enough time onstage to honor her breakthrough into pop royalty after years of cutting her teeth at Disney Channel, training for Broadway, and perfecting her goofy-yet-sexy onstage persona.

Carpenter showcased the full range of her skillset with a Lucille Ball-esque performance, complete with comedic bits and costumes, a jazzy blend of "Espresso" and "Please Please Please," and even a tap-dance break.

Chappell Roan made headlines throughout 2024 for drawing massive crowds at festivals like Coachella and Lollapalooza. As she proved once again on the Grammy stage, Roan is a born entertainer with the creative vision, showmanship, and soaring falsetto to match.

Rather than sticking with the obvious choice and singing her breakout hit "Good Luck, Babe!" — nominated for both record and song of the year — Roan smartly opted to perform her gay-awakening anthem "Pink Pony Club" to honor her love of Los Angeles.

Shortly after, Roan returned to the stage to accept the award for best new artist, where she boldly took the music industry to task; Roan dedicated her speech to demanding higher wages and better worker protections for herself and her peers. You just can't teach stage presence like hers.

Charli XCX was one of the most-nominated artists at the Grammys this year and one of the evening's final performers. Thankfully, the old cliché of "saving the best for last" applies here.

Charli kickstarted her "Brat" medley with "Von Dutch," strutting around the arena's parking garage while flanked by a crowd of partygoers and hot girls, including supermodel Alex Consani and internet "It Girl" Gabbriette Bechtel.

By the time Charli and her entourage arrived onstage, it felt like the whole crowd was on their feet. Even Taylor Swift, the apparent source of envy that Charli sings about in "Sympathy Is a Knife," was jumping around with a champagne bottle in her hand.

Charli capped the performance with "Guess," her hit collaboration with Billie Eilish, while panties and undergarments rained from the ceiling. It was hard not to feel jealous of the cool kids on that stage — which was, of course, exactly what Charli was going for.

How many times do we need to watch Benson Boone follow this exact blueprint?

"Beautiful Things" may have been his breakout hit, but it's a cookie-cutter pop song that doesn't need yet another televised performance — especially not if Boone insists on recycling every detail for every one, from the all-too-faithful instrumentation to the onstage backflip and the sparkly jumpsuits stolen directly from Harry Styles' playbook.

What's Happening Over The Skies of New Jersey

 Strange things are happening in the skies over the Garden State New Jersey. What are they, Where are they coming from and What do they want?

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- People from all across the Delaware Valley and up into northern New Jersey have reported seeing clusters of drones in the sky over the past several weeks.

Numerous reports were sent to Action News about flying objects in Media and Broomall in Delaware County, as well as in Philadelphia's Mayfair section and in Cherry Hill, Camden County.

We've been asking local and federal officials if they can offer an explanation. Simply put, so far, the answer is no.

We spoke with Maureen Rush who is a 45-year law enforcement veteran and president of the Philadelphia Police Foundation. She says it's important to note that many of the sightings include commercial-grade drones, some as large as small airplanes, not the kinds used by hobbyists.

"My other concern is that there are multiple drone sightings. They're almost in a flock. If they were geese, they'd be in a flock, and that's what's really unnerving for people," she said.

Over in New Jersey, Governor Phil Murphy has publicly stated that this drone activity does not pose a public safety concern, but he has offered little else regarding an explanation.

And State Senator Doug Steinhardt says that's simply not good enough.

"I'd be happy with an explanation that we've looked at it, and we don't have information, or for law enforcement to say it's an ongoing something or other, you know, and that's as much as we can tell you, but we're not even getting that which is unfortunate," said Steinhardt.

And Steinhardt says he's not just speaking as a lawmaker, he's speaking as a witness.

"I walked out of my front porch last night and saw it would look like drone activity to me. I mean, I've seen airplanes cross the sky before and this wasn't that," he says.

The FBI is involved in the investigation.
