WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (FNN) – President-elect Donald Trump announced today that Kari Lake will serve as the next Director of the Voice of America (VOA). Lake, a former Arizona news anchor and two-time political candidate, will assume the role upon the inauguration of Trump’s administration.
The Voice of America, an integral part of the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), plays a key role in disseminating American values and perspectives to international audiences. Trump emphasized the importance of the appointment in a statement: “Kari Lake will ensure that the American values of freedom and liberty are broadcast around the world fairly and accurately, unlike the lies spread by the Fake News Media.”
Lake’s leadership will align closely with the yet-to-be-announced head of USAGM, a position Trump pledged to fill with a strong advocate for journalistic integrity and patriotic messaging.
Kari Lake gained prominence as a trusted news anchor in Arizona, a state that delivered significant support for Trump in previous elections. Despite her recent political losses in high-profile races for governor and U.S. Senate, Trump praised Lake for her enduring connection with the public and her commitment to truth and transparency.
Lake’s career spans over 20 years in broadcast journalism, during which she built a reputation for delivering impactful stories to Arizona’s viewers. She remains a polarizing figure nationally, often criticized by her detractors but celebrated by her supporters for her vocal advocacy of conservative values.
This appointment signals a clear direction for Trump’s media strategy, prioritizing leaders who will confront misinformation and promote a patriotic narrative on the global stage.

“Rep. Maxwell Frost Condemns Trump for Shutting Down White House Gun Violence Prevention Office”

WASHINGTON (FNN) – Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost (FL-10) expressed outrage as President Donald Trump’s administration swiftly dismantled the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention (OGVP) within 24 hours of taking office. The OGVP, established by the Biden-Harris Administration in 2023 after significant advocacy by Frost, was a critical initiative aimed at addressing America’s gun violence crisis.
The OGVP provided federal leadership in responding to mass shootings, connecting municipalities with vital resources for victims, and implementing the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act. The office’s accomplishments included distributing millions in federal grants, such as $1.5 million to the City of Orlando’s Community Violence Intervention Program. Frost criticized Trump’s decision as a significant step backward in the fight to protect communities from gun violence.
In his statement, Frost emphasized the bipartisan need for gun reform:
“Donald Trump’s reckless decision to close the Office of Gun Violence Prevention is a betrayal of the American people. This office was saving lives, not playing politics. We need leaders on both sides of the aisle to prioritize the safety of our communities. The fight for common-sense gun reform is far from over.”
Impact of Ending the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention:
The closure of OGVP signals a troubling shift in federal priorities. Without a central office to coordinate responses to mass shootings and gun violence, victims and communities may face delays in accessing critical resources. Federal grants for community violence intervention programs could be slashed, stalling progress in violence prevention efforts. The decision also halts federal oversight of initiatives such as the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, leaving a gap in addressing the growing epidemic of gun violence.
What’s Next?
Congressman Maxwell Frost has vowed to lead the charge in reestablishing the Office of Gun Violence Prevention. He plans to work with advocacy groups, local governments, and bipartisan leaders to pass new legislation ensuring a federal response to gun violence remains a priority. Frost urges Americans to contact their representatives to demand action and support initiatives aimed at protecting communities from gun-related tragedies.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (FNN) – On the historic day of his second inauguration, President Donald J. Trump wasted no time delivering on his promises to the American people. Declaring the beginning of a new “Golden Age,” the 47th President signed a series of sweeping executive orders aimed at transforming energy, immigration, government accountability, and national security policies.
President Trump Ushers in a New Era of American Greatness with Day One Executive Orders
Day One: A Legacy of Action
President Trump emphasized his commitment to reversing policies from the previous administration and implementing bold reforms to restore America’s global standing and economic prosperity.
Energy Independence Revived
President Trump fulfilled key campaign promises by launching a national energy emergency, lifting restrictive regulations, and reopening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) for energy development. He also ended the Biden administration’s electric vehicle mandate and paused offshore wind projects, declaring these actions necessary to unlock America’s full energy potential.
“With today’s actions, we’re bringing energy costs down for hardworking families and restoring our nation’s energy independence,” President Trump announced during his speech.
Securing America’s Borders
Trump made border security a cornerstone of his campaign and wasted no time in addressing immigration policies. His executive orders reinstated the “Remain in Mexico” policy, resumed border wall construction, and designated international cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. Additionally, he halted refugee admissions and closed loopholes to end “birth tourism” and catch-and-release policies.
“America’s borders will no longer be wide open,” Trump asserted. “We will protect our citizens, prioritize safety, and ensure that immigration laws serve the interests of our country.”
Draining the Swamp
In an aggressive push to reform government, President Trump created the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut waste and streamline operations. He also reinstated merit-based hiring practices and signed an order to root out corruption by making it easier to fire underperforming federal employees.
“Today, we begin the process of taking back control of our government and holding it accountable to the American people,” Trump declared.
Restoring American Values and Sovereignty
Key executive orders targeted cultural and foreign policy shifts. President Trump reinstated the death penalty for drug dealers and human traffickers, declared the United States would officially recognize only two genders, and renamed the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America.”
On foreign policy, he renewed his America First trade agenda and redirected foreign aid to align with U.S. interests and values.
“Our policies will always put America first,” President Trump said, reiterating his focus on prioritizing the welfare of American citizens.
President Trump’s Executive Orders Kickstart a Bold Vision for America’s Future
The sweeping reforms enacted by President Trump on his first day in office signal a dramatic shift in national priorities. His decisive actions aim to bolster the economy, secure the border, restore traditional values, and dismantle bureaucracy.
As President Trump stated, “This is just the beginning. Together, we will bring about an era of unmatched greatness for our nation.”
