He was joined by Vice President JD Vance and Veterans Affairs Secretary Doug Collins. “This morning on these hallowed grounds where generations of American heroes rest in eternal glory, we gather to fulfill the sacred duty of every free man and woman. On Veterans Day, we honor those who have worn the uniform, who have borne the battle, who have stood to watch, and whose ranks have formed the mighty wall of flesh and blood, bravery and devotion that has defended our freedom for 250 years,” Trump said at the Memorial Amphitheater. “Today, to every veteran, we love our veterans, we say the words too often left unsaid, thank you for your service. Thank you very much. And we want to also say thank you for carrying America’s fate on your strong, very broad, proud shoulders. Each of you has earned the respect and the gratitude of our entire nation. We love you, we salute you, and we will never forget what you have done to keep America safe, sovereign, and free.” From @MargoMartin47 President @realDonaldTrumplays a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in honor of America’s fallen heroes pic.twitter.com/U5H3m53GSO — Commentary Donald J.

And with that in mind, I have prepared a very brief 1 hour and 45 minute speech on this beautiful Veterans Day.” pic.twitter.com/xyHo71K2yJ — TheBlaze (@theblaze) November 11, 2025 The Department of War provided a brief history of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier: The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier serves as a symbolic grave for all war dead whose remains have not been found or identified. The Tomb began with one unknown service member from World War I, and today is the grave of three unidentified service members. Its meaning has evolved to represent the memory of all military members throughout American history. Soldiers were first assigned to guard the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in 1926, to discourage visitors from climbing or stepping on it. In 1937, the guards became a 24/7 presence, standing watch over the Unknown Soldier at all times. The changing of the guard takes months to perfect but only minutes to perform. The routine is characterized by practiced precision performed by sentinels who are members of the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment, known as “The Old Guard.” There has been a sentinel on duty in front of the Tomb every minute of every day since 1937. Soldiers who volunteer to become Tomb Guards undergo a strict selection process and intensive training. Each element of the routine has meaning, with the number 21 repeated to represent the highest symbolic military honor that can be bestowed: the 21-gun salute.

President Trump has responded to Michelle Obama’s latest criticism. In an interview with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham, Trump was asked about Michelle Obama’s recent criticism over the East Wing’s demolition. Trump responded by bringing the facts. The 47th President shared the East Wing where the new ball room is set to be constructed has been renovated over 20 times throughout the last several decades. Fox News covered Trump’s response to Michelle’s remarks more exclusively: President Donald Trump responded to former first lady Michelle Obama’s criticism of his White House renovation plans in an interview with Laura Ingraham, boasting that the new ballroom replacing the East Wing will be “one of the greatest” in the world. “The East Wing is being spent by private donors. It’s a $250, $300 million building. It’s going to be the most beautiful anywhere in the world,” he said Monday. “They had an event [at the White House] the other day. With tables, they could hold 79 people. Now, if you have President Xi from China, or if you have some big state event, we have no place to have it. You know what they did? …They will put a tent on the lawn. It was a low section because that’s the only section you have… If it rained, you were sitting in six inches of water. It was a disaster.” Trump’s remarks came in response to Ingraham’s question about the former first lady’s recent remarks criticizing his East Wing demolition to embark upon the project, which has drawn ire from a swath of Democratic critics, including Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and others. Obama alleged the move “denigrate[s]” the East Wing, where the first lady’s office traditionally sat, and where the “heart” of her work took place. “When we talk about the East Wing, it is the heart of the work [of a first lady],” she said, according to Vanity Fair. “And to denigrate it, to tear it down, to pretend like it doesn’t matter, it’s a reflection of how you think of that role.” She also took a swipe at Trump for demolishing the East Wing during an NBC appearance. “There’s no guidebook,” Obama said of the challenges of being first lady. “There’s barely a staff. Now we don’t have a building,” she added. Acknowledging broader criticism from those who insist on the building’s historical value, Trump pointed to prior renovations made to the East Wing. “That building was renovated 20 times, including adding a floor to the top, which was terrible,” he said.

In the past, the White House’s East Wing has housed the office of the first lady and her staff. Former first lady Rosalynn Carter was the first to have an office in the East Wing.

Another lawmaker has announced they will not seek re-election. Just days after Democrat Rep. Nancy Pelosi announced she will not seek re-election in 2027, Republican Congressman Jodey Arrington of Texas has announced he will also not seek re-election. Arrington who is the chairman of the House Budget Committee announced he will not seek re-election because he believes lawmakers should not make a career out of being a lawmaker. Fox News reported more in-depth on Arrington’s surprising decision to step away from Capitol Hill: House Budget Committee Chairman Jodey Arrington, R-Texas, will not seek re-election in 2026. The senior Republican lawmaker will have finished serving a decade in Congress when he leaves at the end of next year. “I have a firm conviction, much like our founders did, that public service is a lifetime commitment, but public office is and should be a temporary stint in stewardship, not a career,” Arrington said. And the conservative Texan told Fox News Digital he felt he was leaving on a high note, having played a key role in crafting President Donald Trump’s big, beautiful bill. “It was a very unique, generational impact opportunity, to be almost ten years into this and to have the budget chairmanship, and to lead the charge to successfully pass that and to help this president fulfill his mandate from the people,” Arrington said. “It just seems like a good and right place to leave it.” He cited multiple legislative items across his tenure as Budget Committee chair when asked what he took pride in, but added, “It’s more of changing the narrative and the culture in Congress and in my party that I’m most proud of.” “I’m from a rural district and I can tell you, raising the profile among urban and suburban members as to the unique challenges of rural America and the unique contributions of rural America — like food security and energy independence and how much the nation depends on these plow boys and cowboys in rural areas — that’s another thing I’m proud of,” he said. God Bless and Go West Texas! pic.twitter.com/YLI7gAvY0l — Jodey Arrington (@JodeyArrington) November 11, 2025 USA Today reported the field is open for Arrington’s soon to be open seat: Arrington’s decision not to seek re-election leaves a wide open field for the Republican primary for the U.S. House 19 seat ahead of the March 3 primary. The registration period opened Saturday, Nov. 9. Lubbock Democrat Kyle Rable already announced he registered to run in the Democratic primary for the seat, filing for the race on Saturday, Nov. 9. Arrington and his office were not immediately available for further comment, but his statement elaborated on his accomplishments reflected on his time in office.

Wendy’s plans to close hundreds of locations across the United States due to declining revenue and profits. The fast food chain expects to begin shuttering locations in the fourth quarter of this year. According to CBS News, the company cited “cutbacks by lower-income consumers.” Wendy's plans to close hundreds U.S. restaurants over the next few months. The new round of closures comes on top of the closure of 240 U.S. Wendy's locations in 2024.https://t.co/hTXg7qAmrE pic.twitter.com/PzB6USqWJP — Action News on 6abc (@6abc) November 11, 2025 CBS News has more: On a Friday investor call, Ken Cook, Wendy’s interim CEO, didn’t disclose the exact number or locations of restaurants that it plans to shutter. But he said the Dublin, Ohio-based company is likely to close in the “mid-single digit percentage” of its 6,011 U.S locations, or roughly 300 store closures if it shuts 5% of its existing restaurants. Wendy’s said the closures will start in the fourth quarter this year. Closing underperforming locations will improve traffic and profitability at its remaining U.S. restaurants, Cook added. Fast-food chains have been struggling to lift sales as lower-income consumers feel increasingly squeezed by rising food costs. Both Wendy’s and McDonald’s have introduced value meals to entice diners, but Cook said he doesn’t expect the financial strain on these households to ease soon. “When we look at the system today, we have some restaurants that do not elevate the brand and are a drag from a franchisee financial performance perspective. The goal is to address and fix those restaurants,” Wendy’s interim CEO Ken Cook said during a conference call with investors, according to the Associated Press. Wendy’s quietly confirms 300 store closures next year https://t.co/RbizZB5DXs pic.twitter.com/LPngXngZse — New York Post (@nypost) November 11, 2025 The Associated Press shared further info: Cook said in some cases, Wendy’s will make improvements to struggling stores, including adding technology or equipment. In other cases, it will transfer ownership to a different operator or close the restaurant altogether. U.S. fast food chains have been struggling to attract lower-income consumers in the past few years as inflation has raised prices. Cook said he expects lower-income consumers to remain pressured for the rest of this year. In the first nine months of this year, Wendy’s said its U.S. same-store sales, or sales at locations open at least a year, fell 4% compared to the same period last year. Wendy’s revenue fell 2% to $1.63 billion in the same period, while its net income fell 6% to $138.6 million. Cook said $5 and $8 meal deals — which have been matched by McDonald’s — have helped bring some traffic back to its U.S. stores. But Wendy’s isn’t doing a good job of bringing in new customers, Cook said, so the company plans to shift its marketing to emphasize its value and the freshness of its ingredients.
