Former President Trump is making his social media return in the near future with his own platform. On “#MediaBuzz” over the weekend Trump senior adviser Jason Miller told Fox News’ Howard Kurtz about the former President’s plans. President Trump was suspended from Twitter, Facebook and other social media sites following the January 6 riots on Capitol Hill. Kurtz joins today’s ‘Rundown’ to weigh in on the reaction of Trump’s social media comeback, how it will impact Facebook and Twitter and whether it will be successful.
There will be a Letlow in Congress. Julia Letlow was elected over the weekend in Louisiana. The fifth District House seat wasn’t supposed to be hers. Back in December her husband, Luke Letlow won a runoff election and was getting ready to go to Washington. He ended up contracting Covid-19 on December 18th and died due to complications 11 days later, less than a week before he was supposed to be sworn into the House. Now his widow, Julia Letlow will take his spot. Congresswoman-elect (R-LA) Letlow discusses her victory, her conversation with former President Trump and her move to Washington.
