White House Border czar Tom Homan issued a warning to "Squad" member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) about continuing to help illegal immigrants evade deportation, Fox News reported. Homan said that the "tables have now turned."
Homan appeared on The Ingraham Angle Tuesday to speak out against Ocasio-Cortez and her ilk. Last week, the leftist lawmaker held a town hall event in Queens where she taunted Homan about her flippant disregard for immigration law.
This comes after her office also hosted a February "Know Your Rights" webinar to help illegal immigrants evade capture. Homan indicated he is not taking these actions lightly.
Whether she is aiming for political clout or seriously telling illegal immigrants how to break the law, Ocasio-Cortez is playing a dangerous game. Homan did not take kindly to her latest stunt and called her out on it.
"I take pleasure [that] I can live in her mind rent-free every day, but we all know exactly what she's doing. She's educating the worst of the worst [on] how do we evade law enforcement," Homan said.
"But the tables have now turned. She's educating people how to get prosecuted, because you have a final order," Homan said, referring to the last step of the legal process to deport an illegal immigrant.
"It is illegal not to comply with that order. It's a crime to take steps to... not comply with ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] removal orders or not comply with ICE actions taken in custody," Homan warned.
"You can't hinder your own removal that was ordered by the federal judge. I would like AOC to read Title 8, United States Code 1253 because it's starting tomorrow," he added.
As an elected official, Ocasio-Cortez surely knows that her role in helping lawbreakers evade capture is a crime. Still, she publicly proclaimed her intention to flout the law and help others do the same at her town hall meeting Friday.
"Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to the DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections. To that I say: Come for me, do I look like I care?" Ocasio-Cortez said.
She taunted Homan, stating that there is "nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me." However, Homan is not going to budge in this game of chicken that the two are playing.
"Game's over. We're going to look for these public safety threats, and we're going to take them off those streets in New York and every other sanctuary city," Homan said, vowing to prosecute anyone standing in the way of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Ocasio-Cortez and other leftists are brazenly encouraging others to flout immigration law because they think there will be no consequences. However, Homan doesn't seem to be a man to trifle with, and she may soon find out just how serious he is.
Democrats peppered Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem with tough questions at a hearing for the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security, Breitbart reported. Noem discussed issues such as budget cuts, immigration, and REAL ID travel requirements.
The hearing occurred on Tuesday as Noem faced the panel of four Democrats and seven Republicans. She defended President Donald Trump's positions and her own actions on several key issues.
The wide-ranging topics included Noem defending recent budget cuts and the immigration crackdown currently underway. There was also news on the REAL ID front, which has hit some snags in implementation.
As Spectrum News reported, Noem was asked about reducing the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's budget by $491 million. "Despite the growing cyber threats, your budget cuts nearly half a billion dollars—half a billion dollars from the main agency charged with protecting our federal network," Rep. Lauren Underwood (D-IL) charged.
Noem explained that it was reshifting priorities rather than cutting something necessary. "So in CISA, instead of doing censorship, misinformation and disinformation, they are back to securing our critical infrastructure," Noem explained.
She said it was the same thing for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, explaining that Trump "wants to eliminate FEMA as it exists today and to have states have more control over their emergency management response." Democrats challenged Noem on the cuts, but they clearly thought immigration was a winning issue.
Underwood pressed Noem on whether the government was able to deport American citizens. Rep. Veronica Escobar (D-TX) similarly took that line of questioning, referencing deported citizens who decided to take their American-born children with them.
"No, and we are not deporting U.S. citizens," Noem explained. "The specific cases that you're referencing with these children, it was the parents' choice to take their children, which is the policy of the Trump administration to keep families together," Noem said, destroying the narrative.
Noem also fielded questions about the REAL ID requirement that the Associated Press noted would go into effect Wednesday. All airplane travel, including domestic, requires a passport or a compliant identification card or driver's license.
This comes from a 2005 law that was a recommendation after the 9/11 Commission investigation. The thought is that state-issued identification documents must comply with uniform federal standards for national security purposes in travel and entering certain federal buildings.
During Tuesday's hearing, Noem announced that travelers without a REAL ID "may be diverted to a different line, have an extra step" at airports, but wouldn't be denied access to travel. "But people will be allowed to fly," Noem assured the public.
"We will make sure it’s as seamless as possible," she added. Although Noem said nearly 81% of Americans wishing to travel have the complaint IDs, many have worried about the problems it might cause for those who don't in the interim.
Noem handled herself like a pro during the onslaught of pointed questions. Officials in the Trump administration, including Noem, are doing a phenomenal job implementing and explaining his agenda.
The Trump administration filed a lawsuit Friday against Colorado and the city of Denver for providing sanctuary for illegal immigrants, the UK Daily Mail reported. Attorney General Pam Bondi previously pursued legal action against Chicago, Illinois, and Rochester, New York, for the same reason.
The Department of Justice asserted the federal government's authority in immigration law in its legal filing. "The United States has well-established, preeminent, and preemptive authority to regulate immigration matters," the lawsuit said.
Bondi said that the state's lack of cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement violated the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. The Justice Department attorneys believe that the state's "sanctuary policies" contributed to the gang takeover of an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado.
Democrats downplayed the fact that the Tren de Aragua gang occupied at least five buildings in The Edge at Lowry in the suburban area just outside of Denver. In February, the structures were condemned due to the dangerous situation the gang's occupation created.
President Donald Trump made illegal immigration a central issue during the campaign. At a presidential debate in September, Trump warned about the dire situation at The Edge at Lowry.
"We have millions of people pouring into our country from prisons and jails, from mental institutions and insane asylums. You see what's happening with towns throughout the United States. You look at Springfield, Ohio. You look at Aurora in Colorado," Trump said at the time, USA Today reported.
"They are taking over the towns. They're taking over buildings. They're going in violently," Trump added before blaming then-President Joe Biden and then-Vice President Kamala Harris for the situation.
"These are the people that she and Biden let into our country, and they're destroying our country. They're dangerous. They're at the highest level of criminality, and we have to get them out," Trump said during the debate with Harris, who was his Democratic opponent.
Although Democrats and their media accomplices attempted to deny this fact at the time, it was announced in January that the buildings would close the following month. This is all because the state chose to protect illegal immigrants over its citizens.
The residents who once called the apartment complex home finally had their say during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on April 1. One of those was Cindy Romero, who was forced out by the rampant and dangerous gang activity.
"I am a wife, a mother of five, a grandmother of three, a part-time worker and student, and a former resident of Aurora, Colorado. I am one of the many victims across the nation of the violent transnational terrorist organization Tren de Aragua and a former lifelong Democrat," she told the committee.
Her testimony was shared on X, formerly Twitter, by Libs of TikTok. "They brought prostitutes, drugs, guns, and crime. The police were instructed to ignore pleas for help. Remember when the media and Democrats said this wasn’t happening?" the caption noted.
Wow. Heartbreaking testimony from an Aurora, CO resident about Tren de Aragua gang members taking over her apartment complex.
They brought pr0stitutes, drugs, guns, and crime.
The police were instructed to ignore pleas for help.
Remember when the media and Democrats said this… pic.twitter.com/dI0vK1NQ9r

It's about time the people of Aurora, Colorado, and other sanctuary areas to see justice being served. Much to the chagrin of the Democrats, Bondi will continue to go after these places to right the wrongs, just as voters hoped when pulling the lever for Trump.
President Donald Trump has permanently ended the National Institutes of Health (NIH)'s experimentation on beagles, closing the agency's last experimentation lab over the weekend.
NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya announced the closure during an interview with Fox News's Rachel Campos-Duffy, which you can watch here:
Watch @NIHDirector_Jay on @FoxNews with @RCamposDuffy where he discusses a new NIH initiative to expand innovative, human-based science while reducing animal use in research, including getting rid of all the beagle experiments on the NIH campus. pic.twitter.com/qfL5oepOBX
— NIH (@NIH) May 4, 2025
Bhattacharya said the move was part of a broader policy change that replaced animal experimentation with AI and other technologies that better mimic human health.
“It’s very easy, for instance, to cure Alzheimer’s in mice. But those things don’t translate to humans,” Bhattacharya said.
Bhattacharya acknowledged that people have had a hard time trusting the NIH since the COVID-19 pandemic, when the organization pushed school lockdowns and vaccines way too hard.
He didn't say it, but the Chinese facility where the virus most likely came from got funding from the NIH, which may be another reason why Americans are mistrustful of the NIH.
The NIH confirmed the policy change on social media, saying it has begun an “initiative to expand innovative, human-based science while reducing animal use in research, including getting rid of all the beagle experiments on the NIH campus.”
The watchdog group White Coat Waste said that the NIH has killed 2,100 beagles since 1986 in septic shock experiments.
“The NIH pumps pneumonia-causing bacteria into beagles’ lungs, bleeds them out, and forces dogs into septic shock,” the group's report stated. “After four days of infection, NIH kills the beagles—and stuffs their bodies into a refrigerator.”
“We applaud the President for cutting this wasteful NIH spending and will keep fighting until we defund all dog labs at home and abroad," the group said.
Other experiments on beagles that involved infesting puppies with ticks at Kansas City University became a big scandal in 2021 and turned public opinion against then-director Anthony Fauci.
DOGE has been looking for wasteful spending, and these experiments certainly don't need to be publicly funded.
If scientists want to kill beagles after torturing them, let them find someone in the private sector to fund it, if they can.
Liberals in Congress have been standing in strong opposition to President Donald Trump's immigration agenda ever since he took office in January, and one particularly outspoken lawmaker is ratcheting up the rhetoric and seemingly looking for a fight.
As Breitbart reports, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) essentially challenged the Trump administration border czar to seek charges against her for a February webinar in which she arguably provided advice on how to skirt Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) investigations.
It was several months ago that the office of Ocasio-Cortez hosted the aforementioned “Know Your Rights” live webinar, providing advice to migrants on what to do if they find themselves under ICE enforcement scrutiny, as Fox News noted at the time.
Included in the presentation was information on how to respond if ICE officials appeared at migrants' homes or workplaces and warnings of potential “ruses” used to secure compliance with search demands.
The target audience was urged to record interactions with ICE and to learn the differences between types of warrants and searches conducted by the agency.
Though the congresswoman was not a direct participant in the presentation of information, she did write with regard to its content, “Our strategic advantage in this moment is our strength in numbers. It is time to use it. In nearly every way, we outnumber those who want to abuse their power and keep people in fear,” telling constituents that “if ICE comes to your workplace or home, whether you are a citizen or noncitizen -- YOU can defend your community and our constitution by exercising your right.”
The involvement of Ocasio-Cortez drew the attention of Homan, who then said during a Fox News appearance, “Is that impeding our law enforcement efforts? If so, what are we going to do about it? Is she crossing the line? So, I'm working with the Department of Justice and finding out. Where is that line that they cross? So, maybe AOC's gonna be in trouble now.”
Shortly after Homan made his remarks, AOC offered a snarky retort to the border czar, saying, “Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start.”
During a town hall meeting last week, Ocasio-Cortez came back to the question of whether Homan was seriously pursuing prosecution over her involvement with the webinar.
AOC stated, “Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I'm using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections. To that I say: 'Come for me, do I look like I care?'”
She pressed her point further by declaring there to have been “nothing illegal about it, and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.”
In addition to defiance with regard to Homan, AOC has ramped up her rhetoric about Trump's agenda more broadly, suggesting that his administration's removals of Venezuelan gang members has been akin to “sanctioned kidnappings.”
Law professor and Fox News contributor Jonathan Turley has commented negatively on the prospect of AOC's prosecution over the webinar controversy, saying that it would amount to “an assault on free speech rights,” but the administration continues to express a hardline stance against those who would willfully interfere with the work of ICE.
With the issuance of an executive order by Trump last week designed to identify and possibly halt funding to sanctuary cities that thwart local cooperation with federal immigration authorities, it is quite clear that the administration is not backing down when it comes to its enforcement efforts, and confrontations such as the one between Homan and AOC are only likely to grow.
President Donald Trump's administration has revoked permission for Romania in the Visa Waiver Program due to national security and other concerns, Breitbart reported. Then-President Joe Biden added the nation on his way out of office.
The program allows foreign nationals from certain friendly countries admission into the U.S. for up to 90 days without securing a visa. The nations allowed in the program must have fewer than 3% of admitted individuals overstay their visits in the U.S. annually.
Biden added Romania to the program in January as he was leaving office. It was supposed to go into effect in March, but was under review.
Romania's overstay rate was 2.61% in 2024, down from 9% in 2023, 13% in 2022, and 17% in 2021. The State Department and the Department of Homeland Security officially announced the revocation of Romania's permission on Friday.
The VWP has become another system to exploit for criminals from the nations admitted to the program, including European nations. Even the 9/11 Commission Staff Report noted the potential for abuse and advised against its continuation.
Gangs of robbers from foreign countries have gamed the system to steal from wealthy Americans without worrying about obtaining visas to get into the U.S. Despite these known problems, the number of nations included has increased under just about every U.S. president since 1986.
However, the problem for Romania goes beyond the run-of-the-mill issues of other unchecked visitors. The Trump administration pointed to Romania's recent presidential election debacle.
"The Administration notes with increasing concern the recent developments across Europe of democratic backsliding. Efforts to suppress the will of the people draw into question the strength of our shared values," a senior White House official said.
"Healthy democracies do not fear opposing perspectives. Concerted efforts to delegitimize certain political perspectives draw a striking resemblance to the American experience that President Trump faced, including lawfare and censorship," the unnamed official added.
According to Fox News, Romania's election authority canceled the results of the country's presidential election due to concerns about Russian interference in the election. In this month's do-over, the authority completely shut out frontrunner Calin Georgescu.
"A direct blow to the heart of democracy worldwide! I have one message left! If democracy in Romania falls, the entire democratic world will fall!" Georgescu warned in a post to X, formerly Twitter, on March 9. "This is just the beginning. It’s that simple! Europe is now a dictatorship, Romania is under tyranny!"

Vice President J.D. Vance echoed the warning. The vice president said "it looks more and more like old, entrenched interests hiding behind ugly Soviet-era words like misinformation and disinformation, who simply don't like the idea that somebody with an alternative viewpoint might express a different opinion or, God forbid, vote a different way, or even worse, win an election."
The visa program has its own pitfalls, and Trump was certainly correct in limiting the nations that are allowed to participate. However, the injustice in the nation's elections presents another dimension to kick them out of the program, full stop.
Former NFL and MLB player Tom Brown has died at age 84, the UK Daily Mail reported. Brown is best known for the interception that clinched the 1966 championship game for the Green Bay Packers.
Brown was a remarkable athlete who played professional baseball and football. His loss was memorialized by the former players of the National Football League Players Association on X, formerly Twitter, on Wednesday.
"Today, we mourn the loss of former player & two-time Super Bowl Champ, Tom Brown. As a passionate & determined two-sport athlete, and beloved member of the Former Player Tampa Chapter, his brothers and his union are sending love and comfort to all of Tom's loved ones," the official NFLPA Former Players account posted on X, formerly Twitter, on

The Laureldale, Pennsylvania, native also played basketball before initially settling on football and baseball as his main sports. He moved to Silver Spring, Maryland, located just outside of Washington, D.C., during his high school years.
After graduating, Brown attended the University of Maryland, where he continued playing football and baseball. Brown would ultimately back away from the sport after visiting the Packers locker room.
"These guys are big," Brown observed during his visit at the 1962 NFL championship game. "I'm going to play baseball," Brown added.
He joined the Washington Senators, skipping out on his last season of college baseball. He ended his career with a home run, 17 hits, four RBIs for a .147 batting average.
The Green Bay Packers picked Brown in the second round of the 1963 NFL Draft, while the Buffalo Bills chose him in the third round in the AFL Draft. He initially passed on the opportunity to continue playing baseball, but joined the Packers after the Senators sent him down to the minors.
Brown stuck with Green Bay for five seasons and one season with the Washington Redskins. However, it was a remarkable run for Brown, who was part of the team for coach Vince Lombardi's stellar win in three consecutive NFL championships.
From 1965 to 1967, Green Bay dominated, and Brown played an integral role in the team's success. During the 1966 NFL title game, the Packers were up 34-27 against the Dallas Cowboys in the last minute of the game.
In the final play, Dallas had possession at the 2-yard line and could have tied up the game. Instead, Brown intercepted a pass to Don Meredith, thus ending the game and securing the win. Brown would make a similar game-saving play in the 1967 playoffs that allowed Green Bay to beat the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Packers would go on to win their third NFL title against Dallas with Brown on the team. In 1969, Brown followed Lombardi to play his final season for Washington. He ended his career with six fumble recoveries and 13 interceptions over 71 regular-season games, plus the championship plays.
Brown's contributions to his team and the sport were significant. Although he passed away at an advanced age, sports enthusiasts will still mourn his loss.
A federal judge has blocked local law enforcement officials in Florida from enforcing a new state immigration law, Breitbart reported. The local law was enacted to pursue illegal immigrants who enter the Sunshine State.
Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the bill into law in February. His state attempted to work in conjunction with President Donald Trump's hard line against illegal immigration, which was a priority since the president's first term.
However, U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams imposed a preliminary injunction on the new law and extended the stay as of Tuesday. So far, 15 arrests have been made under the statute.
After the initial strike down, Florida Attorney General James Ulthmeier told police officers to ignore Williams' injunction, which did not sit well with the judge. "What I am offended by is someone suggesting you don’t have to follow my order, that it’s not legitimate," the judge said.
According to a Feb. 19 news release from the governor's office, DeSantis gave Florida authorities the ability to enforce immigration law. He signed an agreement with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to further Trump's agenda.
It allowed law enforcement to perform duties such as questioning immigration status, making arrests based on federal immigration law, and collecting statements and data from suspects. DeSantis touted it as a framework for other states to follow.
"Florida is setting the example for states in combating illegal immigration and working with the Trump Administration to restore the rule of law. By allowing our state agents and law enforcement officers to be trained and approved by ICE, Florida will now have more enforcement personnel deputized to assist federal partners," DeSantis said at the time.
"That means deportations can be carried out more efficiently, making our communities safer as illegal aliens are removed," the governor added. DeSantis also set aside $298 million for the cause, including hiring at least 50 new officers to carry out immigration enforcement as well as funding for training, equipment, and facilities required, the Associated Press reported.
One of the more controversial provisions allowed for the death penalty for illegal aliens who commit crimes such as murder. Opponents, including Democratic politicians and civil rights groups, said that this was unconstitutional.
This recent attack on the Florida law is part of a larger trend of judges attempting to block Trump's agenda. On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Fernando Rodriguez Jr. opened the door for a class action lawsuit against the administration for applying the Alien Enemies Act against Venezuelans, Fox News reported.
Trump had signed the executive order "Invocation of the Alien Enemies Act Regarding the Invasion of the United States by Tren De Aragua" on March 14. On the very next day, the administration deported 137 Venezuelans as families protested that those targeted were not members of the crime organization.
Rodriguez granted the plaintiffs "class certification" in a lawsuit in the Southern District of Texas. "The unusual circumstances of this case present a compelling justification to utilize a procedure equivalent to a class action authorized by Rule 23," Rodriguez, a Trump appointee, wrote.
The problem of illegal immigration has persisted because many officials are squeamish about enforcing the law. Several of Trump's provisions have faced challenges before liberal judges, who have struck them down.
Florida should have the ability to enforce immigration laws because the federal government has been unable or unwilling to do so for a long time. Instead, the courts continue to resist while the states are left to clean up the damage.
Legendary conservative opinion leader and author David Horowitz passed away Tuesday at age 86, Breitbart reported. The news was shared to his official X, formerly Twitter, along with a video of personal and career highlights.
In the video caption, his account noted the correct date and that Horowitz died from cancer, though he didn't publicize what type. "On behalf of the David Horowitz Freedom Center, we are very saddened to announce the passing of the Center’s founder, David Horowitz," the account captioned the video.
"After a lengthy battle with cancer, David passed yesterday at the age of 86. David Horowitz, 1939-2025. Requiescat in pace," it added.

— David Horowitz (@horowitz39) April 29, 2025
The early life of Horowitz was surprising for a man who would go on to shape the conservative movement. He began his life in Forest Hills, New York, as the son of schoolteachers.
As he revealed in his book Radical Son, Horowitz's parents also happened to be members of the Communist Party USA. They believed they were "secret agents" of the movement who would bring the ideology to their fellow Americans.
"Underneath the ordinary surfaces of their lives, my parents and their friends thought of themselves as secret agents. Even if we never encountered a Soviet agent or engaged in a single illegal act, each of us knew that our commitment to socialism implied the obligation to commit treason, too," Horowitz wrote.
As a young man in the 1960s, Horowitz was a radical in his own right. He was a leader of the New Left, which included far-left activist groups like the Black Panther Party. He would go on to write for Ramparts magazine, which advanced the cause of radical leftists.
In the 1970s, Horowitz officially became part of the Black Panther Party, but that all changed with the murder of his friend Betty Van Patter. Horowitz believed they were responsible for killing her after she was found dead on a California beach after he introduced her to the movement.
As fate would have it, Horowitz turned his zeal completely to the conservative movement after Patter's murder. He voted for Ronald Reagan in the 1980s and was a prominent proponent of the emerging conservative movement.
In 1998, he founded the David Horowitz Freedom Center with the mission of restoring the culture and political landscape for the right. After the 9/11 attacks, Horowitz warned against the proliferation of radical Islam and its accompanying sin of antisemitism.
In 2010, an exchange with a student at the University of California, San Diego demonstrated just how severe the problem had become. "I’m a Jew. The head of Hezbollah has said that he hopes we will gather in Israel so he doesn’t have to hunt us down globally," Horowitz began when speaking to a female Muslim student.
"For it or against it?" he asked her directly. "For it," the young woman responded, which proved Horowitz's central thesis about the extent of the problem. "Thank you for coming and showing everybody what’s here," Horowitz flatly added.
Horowitz was a prominent figure in the conservative movement. His legacy will not soon be forgotten, even as the man himself is laid to his eternal rest.
Meghan Markle insisted her marriage to Prince Harry is in the "honeymoon period," Fox News reported. Rumors persist about the pair, who have been married for seven years, and whether they may be getting a divorce.
The Duchess of Sussex appeared on an episode of The Jamie Kern Lima Show podcast released Monday. In an effort to address persistent rumors of divorce, host Lima asked Markle if she thinks she "will be married forever" to the Duke of Sussex.
Markle gave a firm "yes" to the question before protesting a little too much. "He’s also a fox, if you haven’t noticed. My husband’s very, very handsome. But his heart is even more beautiful," Markle responded.
As part of a softball setup, Lima quoted Harry's recent praise of his wife that was given to the press. "I'm so happy for my wife and fully support absolutely everything she’s done and continues to do," Harry said, no doubt also trying to dispel rumors of an impending split.
"He’s such a great partner. I feel that every day, how supportive he's been and is, but I didn't know he said that, so that's really nice," Markle responded to Harry's supportive words.
"That man loves me so much and, you know, look what we’ve built. We’ve built a beautiful life, and we have two healthy, beautiful children." However, this life they built came after Harry and Meghan famously left the royal family to pursue their current endeavors.
Markle leaned into the royal angle, perhaps having learned that it was the only thing that made her and her husband interesting. "I always think about it like the end of Super Mario Brothers, and you get to the final final level, and what’s the goal in Super Mario Brothers? Slay the dragon, save the princess," the 43-year-old As Ever founder claimed.
"I’m like, that’s my husband. He’s just out there constantly… going to do whatever he can to make sure our family is safe and protected and uplifted, and still make time for date nights," Markle claimed.
Markle's over-the-top praise for her husband and their marriage continued when she claimed they were more in love now than ever. "You have to imagine, at the beginning, everyone has butterflies, and then we immediately went into the trenches together right out of the gate, six months into dating," Markle claimed.
"So now, seven years later when you have a little bit of breathing space, you can just enjoy each other in a new way, and that's why I feel like it's more of a honeymoon period for us now," Markle claimed. The host then gave the duchess a letter "via Papa" from her children, Archie and Lilibet.
"We love your cooking. We love your pancakes and we love love love your hugs," they purportedly wrote.
"You're the best mummy, and we love you," Markle read from the letter. Of course, this all seemed a little too on the nose since, Markle has been trying to brand herself as a homemaker and mom influencer in her With Love, Meghan series on Netflix.
Whatever is happening in their marriage is their business. However, Markle seems to be trying extra hard to be more likable while also trying to convince everyone that her marriage is solid, and this smacks of overcompensation.
