On April 25, 2026, there was an event at the White House Correspondents Dinner, the aftermath of which is still unfolding. President Trump responded immediately after the event calling for calm and restoration of sanity. Karoline Leavitt returned from her maternity leave to address the Nation during a press conference on April 27, 2026. During the press conference, she noted that the Secret Service Agents who put their lives on the line have gone for 72 days without a paycheck because our National Security (DHS) is NOT being funded.
On April 27, 2026, the White House published the Presidential Message on National Apprenticeship Week announcing that the Trump Administration is recommitting to advancing apprenticeship opportunities to unleash the full might and potential of the American workforce. Apprenticeships have a long and storied history in the world and in our country. Apprentices are the next generation of our skilled workforce. The Trump Administration is ensuring that today's apprenticeships reflect advancements in technology. President Trump writes:
By bolstering apprenticeship opportunities, we are preparing American workers with the skills they need to succeed in industries vital to our economic success, including in construction, manufacturing, energy, and emerging technological fields. We are increasing access to stable, high-paying jobs, boosting wages, and providing Americans with alternate pathways to pursue successful careers beyond a traditional college degree. In the last year alone, 300,000 Americans started apprenticeships, building a stronger workforce that is ready to meet the tremendous surge of industry and innovation ahead.
This National Apprenticeship Week, we celebrate the value of apprenticeships and the hardworking Americans—not illegal immigrants—who are building the future of this country with their own hands. My Administration remains steadfast in our resolve to build a future defined by opportunity, innovation, and strength—where every citizen has the tools to succeed and our workforce remains the strongest and brightest in the world.
On April 26, 2026, Melania Trump celebrated her 56th birthday. I would like to extend belated birthday wishes to Melania. I hope future birthdays will not be as 'eventful' in the same way as this year.
On April 27, 2026, in a post on X, our First Lady responded to a hateful and violent rhetoric filled late-night-show monologue announcing that her family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America. She calls for ABC to take a stand to prevent hate spreading into our homes through their TV station. She asks: How many times will ABC’s leadership enable this atrocious behavior by late-night-show-hosts at the expense of our community?
On April 27, 2026, Day 72 of the Democrat's Partial Federal Government Shutdown, DHS remains unfunded, the SAVE America Act remains in the shadows, and everything We The People voted for is being ignored by Congress.
On April 27, 2026 the Senate convened at 3pm. After a few speeches, the Senate voted to:
The Senate then adjourned at 7:21pm. Their next meeting is scheduled for 10am on April 28, 2026.
On April 27, 2026, the House convened at noon. They debated 14 bills - NONE of which fund DHS, pass the SAVE America Act, or codify President Trump's EOs that were demanded by We The People when we voted for President Trump:
HR8364 To amend title 5, United States Code, to authorize the increase of the retirement age in the United States Capitol Police.
HCR75Directing the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove the United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

HR3317 Honoring Civil Servants Killed in the Line of Duty Act
The House then adjourned at 7:30pm. Their next meeting is scheduled for 9am on April 28, 2026.
It is past time for Congress to fund DHS and get our Secret Service Agents, FEMA employees, US Coast Guard members, NICE (National Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents, and others within DHS fully funded and receiving their paychecks - whatever it takes. And for every Congress member who votes against funding DHS, efforts need to be made to primary them come November and replace them with representatives who will do the bidding of We The People - NOT illegal aliens, criminals, grifters, law breakers, and the like.
This joint resolution nullifies Public Land Order 7917, which withdrew approximately 225,504 acres of National Forest System lands in Cook, Lake, and Saint Louis Counties, Minnesota, from mineral and geothermal leasing for 20 years. In 2023, the Bureau of Land Management issued the order to protect and preserve the Rainy River Watershed, the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness Mining Protection Area, and the 1854 Ceded Territory of the Lake Superior Chippewa from the potential adverse effects of mineral and geothermal exploration and development. The joint resolution removes such protections and allows such land to be leased for the exploration and development of minerals and geothermal energy.

The British did not have the wagons needed to remove the supplies meant for the Continental Army, so the General ordered everything destroyed. Well, except for the homes of their loyalists, that is. The attack lasted almost one week before the Continental Army leaders were informed. Luckily, most of the townspeople had left Danbury for New Milford before the British arrived.
On April 26, 1777, as the British arrived at Danbury, Sybil Ludington (discussed in my April 25, 2026 ANP Article) made her 40-mile, round trip, one day ride to alert the militia in nearby towns.
Almost a week later, Generals Benedict Arnold, David Wooster, and Gold Selleck Silliman led a contingent of more than 500 Continental troops (and 200 volunteers) in a surprise attack on the British who were starting to withdraw from Danbury (having destroyed it most effectively). While they could not stop the British retreat back to their ships on Compo Beach, they did manage to harass them.
In total, of the 700 troops in the Continental army, 20 were killed and 80 were wounded. Of the 2,000 British troops, 154 were killed or wounded and 40 missing or captured.
It is said that when the Continental troops saw what the British had done to Danbury, their resolve to beat the British hardened. While the British were successful in destroying Danbury, their actions galvanized Patriot support in Connecticut. The British decided to focus on raiding the coastal communities instead of heading inland to fact the now resolved and galvanized Patriots. For the first 2 years of the Revolutionary War, Connecticut had remained unscathed. Then, General Tryon marched his troops to the town of Danbury and razed it to the ground.
The skirmish in Danbury was part of the series of American Revolutionary War skirmishes collectively known as the Battle of Ridgefield.
Those are some of the exact words used by Google’s censors, aka 'Orwellian content police,' in describing many of our controversial stories. Stories later proven to be truthful and light years ahead of the mainstream media. But because we reported those 'inconvenient truths' they're trying to bankrupt ANP.
