12 Most Painfully Sycophantic Comments From Trump’s ‘Kim Jong Il-Style’ Cabinet Meeting

President Donald Trump assembled his cabinet Wednesday for a two-hour meeting — in which every official seated at the table went out of their way to fawn over him.

One-by-one, the Trump officials — with many clad in red ties identical to the president, and all seated with red MAGA hats before them — took turns praising their leader for the impact they believe he has made over the first 100 days of his second term.

The lengthy praise-fest left many observers scratching their heads.

“Would it be possible to have a cabinet meeting without the Kim Jong Il-style tributes?” Conservative commentator Ann Coulter asked.

Here are 12 of the most over-the-top examples of Trump’s Cabinet officials kissing up to him:

1. Attorney General Pam Bondi
“President, your first 100 days has far exceeded that of ANY other presidency in this country. Ever. Ever. Never seen anything like it. Thank you.”
2. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent
“Sir, it’s been a momentous 100 days with you at the helm. And I view this 100 days as setting the table for peace deals, trade deals, tax deals, the next 100 days we’ll be harvesting.
3. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin
“Today is a special day for many reasons. The biggest reason why we’re here is that this is the 100th day of the most consequential, historic first 100 days in the history of this country.”
4. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum
“Everybody I’ve met, whether it’s at a coal mine or the border, law enforcement, the one thing they say is please thank President Trump from all of us — the change that you’re making.”
5. Special Advisor Elon Musk
“You know, the American people voted for secure borders, safe cities, and sensible spending. And that’s what they’ve gotten. Tremendous amount has been accomplished in the first 100 days. As everyone has said, it’s more than has been in any administration before, ever, period. So this portends very well for what will happen for the rest of the administration. I think this could be the greatest administration since the founding of the country.”

RFK Jr. Goes Full Tinfoil, Pledges to Stop Chemtrails in Latest Dr. Phil Interview

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has gone full conspiracy buff. In a recent interview with Dr. Phil, the Secretary of Health and Human Services vowed to combat the entirely fabricated threat of chemtrails.

Dr. Phil, whose full name is Phil McGraw, hosted a town hall interview with RFK Jr. on his namesake show Primetime, which aired this Monday (the show is part of Dr. Phil’s self-founded streaming network Merit Street, but also appears on YouTube). At one point, Kennedy fully endorsed an audience member’s fears about chemtrails, appeared to blame another government agency for their existence, and said he would do everything in his power to stop them.

Even among conspiracy theories, the logic underlying chemtrails is especially stupid. The theory goes that planes have been secretly seeding the skies with all sorts of chemical weapons that have been poisoning people for decades—weapons that conveniently leave behind easily visible trails. Some people claim these chemicals are also—or instead—being used to modify the weather.

Columbia Student Who Was Arrested at Citizenship Interview Is Freed

Mohsen Mahdawi, an organizer of the pro-Palestinian movement at Columbia University, was freed from federal custody on Wednesday, more than two weeks after immigration officials detained him and sought to rescind his green card as part of a widening crackdown against student protesters.

In releasing Mr. Mahdawi on bail, Judge Geoffrey W. Crawford of Federal District Court in Vermont drew parallels between the current political climate and McCarthyism.

“This is not the first time that the nation has seen chilling action by the government intended to shut down debate,” Judge Crawford said.

The release of Mr. Mahdawi, a permanent legal resident, is a defeat for the Trump administration, though it does not mean the end of the federal government’s action against him. His immigration case will continue, but he will be able to fight it from outside a detention facility.

Mr. Mahdawi struck a defiant tone after his release.

“I am saying it clear and loud, to President Trump and his cabinet: I am not afraid of you,” he said.
