President Donald Trump said that the reason he directed the United States to conduct new nuclear weapons tests was that countries like China and Russia were secretly doing the same thing.  Trump made the comments during a wide-ranging interview with CBS News correspondent Nora O’Donnell on “60 Minutes” that was broadcast on Sunday. Just before he met with Chinese President Xi Jinping last week, Trump posted on Truth Social that he had directed the Department of War to start testing America’s nuclear weapons.  “You have to see how they work,” Trump said of his directive. “The reason I’m saying testing is because Russia announced that they were going to be doing a test. If you notice, North Korea’s testing constantly. Other countries are testing. We’re the only country that doesn’t test, and I don’t want to be the only country that doesn’t test.” When O’Donnell said that countries like China and Russia hadn’t done nuclear weapons testing, Trump countered that they were doing so secretly. “Russia’s testing nuclear weapons,” Trump said. “And China’s testing them too. You just don’t know about it.” “Russia’s testing, and China’s testing, but they don’t talk about it. You know, we’re an open society. We’re different. We talk about it. We have to talk about it, because otherwise you people are going to report,” Trump said. “We’re going to test, because they test and others test.” Trump then suggested that Russia and China may be testing their nuclear weapons underground.  On Monday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning denied that China was conducting nuclear weapons tests. She claimed that China has “upheld a self-defense nuclear strategy and abided by its commitment to suspend nuclear testing.” Join us now during our exclusive Deal of the Decade.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Sunday that upcoming U.S. testing would involve systems checks, not nuclear detonations. “I think the tests we’re talking about right now are system tests,” he said during an appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Briefing.” “These are not nuclear explosions. These are what we call noncritical explosions.” Wright added that the tests would include looking at “all the other parts of a nuclear weapon to make sure they deliver the appropriate geometry and they set up the nuclear explosion.” The last time the United States detonated a nuclear weapon was in 1992. In 1996, the United States, under President Bill Clinton, signed an international agreement not to test nuclear weapons, but the Senate voted against ratifying the treaty. The last publicly reported test of a nuclear weapon was by North Korea in 2017. 

Comedian Wanda Sykes is being dragged for saying the quiet part out loud and admitting she will choose job candidates based on their race and gender. The 61-year-old celebrity proudly made the admission last week at Variety’s Power of Women event in Los Angeles. “My joy is when I’m able to hire somebody. And you know who I like to hire? Women. … I’ll be upfront with you. When it comes to a position and I look on the paper — she might be right here, and he’s up there,” Sykes said, indicating with her hands that the man was in a slightly elevated position compared to the woman.  She went on, “I’m hiring the woman. That’s just how I operate. And I’ll be honest with you, if she’s a black woman — oh, pssh. Girl, you got the job.” The crowd gave her a big round of applause for acknowledging her bias. “When women thrive, the community thrives,” Sykes added, before throwing in a punch line. “We make everyone around us better. When you get women, when we win, everybody wins. When men win, sometimes they get a younger wife.” Wanda Sykes says she prefers not to hire a man or white person pic.twitter.com/2zioWv2wjS — End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) October 31, 2025 “What I plan on doing is to continue to create projects — and even in my stand-up — to speak and represent more of what powerful women can do. We’re at a moment in time where, with everything that’s going on in the government, we need to create projects where life imitates art,” she continued.  Join us now during our exclusive Deal of the Decade.

I want to do things that speak to them and uplift them. … Use your power to uplift women. If we did that, and if that’s the way we moved, we would have two female presidents by now.” Social media commenters blasted Sykes for bragging about discriminating in her hiring practices. “Haha cool this is totally illegal,” conservative commentator Megyn Kelly replied.  “Why do people think it’s OK to be so blatantly racist and sexist?” another account posted. “Where’s the outrage from the left who cry ‘racism’ at the drop of the hat?” echoed a third.

President Donald Trump sat for an interview with CBS News anchor Norah O’Donnell on October 31 — which aired Sunday on “60 Minutes” — and the pair discussed everything from China and tariffs to former President Joe Biden, former Vice President Kamala Harris, and recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids. For those who don’t spend their Sunday mornings glued to the television — and their Sunday afternoons attempting to dig through a week’s worth of network and cable news media spin — The Daily Wire has compiled a short summary of what you may have missed. Trump himself teased the interview that aired Sunday evening, but he could not resist taking a jab at the network over the recent lawsuit — which he won — over a pre-election “60 Minutes” interview with Harris. CBS parent company Paramount paid out millions after the parts of the interview that made the cut for the final broadcast were apparently edited to make Harris sound less incoherent. Aboard Air Force One, Trump joked about the Harris interview as he previewed his own appearance. Saying that he’d likely be delayed but planned to watch his own interview, he added, “Let’s see if they treat me better than they treat other people. Although, I do say this, they treated Kamala very well. In fact, they changed her answers.” ? JUST IN – PRESIDENT TRUMP: I’ll try to watch my 60 Minutes interview. Let’s see if they treated me better. I will say THIS – they treated KAMALA very well! In fact, they changed her answers! ? pic.twitter.com/Ek5YFNNmoS — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) November 2, 2025 Trump also jabbed at the network during the interview, but those comments never made it to air. “And actually ’60 Minutes’ paid me a lot of money. And you don’t have to put this on because I don’t want to embarrass you, and I’m sure you’re not. I think you have a great new leader, frankly, because the young woman that’s leading your whole enterprise is a great, from what I know, I don’t know her, but I hear she’s a great person,” Trump said, referencing Free Press founder Bari Weiss. “[They replaced [former President Joe Biden] with somebody, the press got behind her. Oh, they were so behind her. But eventually she failed because she couldn’t speak. She wasn’t a very intelligent person, in my opinion. But she couldn’t speak properly. She could not speak,” Trump said of Harris. “And actually, ’60 Minutes’ paid me a lotta money … But ’60 Minutes’ was forced to pay me — a lot of money because they took her answer out that was so bad, it was election-changing, two nights before the election. And they put a new answer in. And they paid me a lot of money for that. You can’t have fake news.” In another segment that never aired, Trump once again brushed off the possibility that he would run for president again in 2028 — while taking aim at the 2020 election in the process. “I like so many people. We have an unbelievable bench. We could run two people together. We have a great bench. So I don’t wanna start talking about elections. It’s too early. One thing I can tell you, the 2020 election was rigged,” he said. “And a lotta people say when it’s rigged you’re allowed to do it again. It was rigged. And it’s been caught. And they — and you see the same information that everybody else does. And it’s coming out now in spades. But with all of that, we have a great bench.” In some of the comments that did make it to air, Trump scolded O’Donnell for asking him to reveal military plans with regard to Taiwan. When the CBS anchor asked Trump why he wouldn’t just announce now what he might do if China were to invade Taiwan, the president balked. “Well — I don’t want to give away — I can’t give away my secrets,” Trump shot back. “I don’t want to be one of these guys that tells you exactly what’s gonna happen if something happens. The other side knows, but — I’m not somebody that tells you everything because you’re asking me a question. But they understand what’s gonna happen. And — he has openly said, and his people have openly said at meetings, ‘We would never do anything while President Trump is president,’ because they know the consequences.” ?

I’m not somebody that tells YOU everything because you’re asking me a question!”… pic.twitter.com/R1MwGAOX5F — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) November 2, 2025 As the wide ranging interview continued, Trump called for Republicans to remove the filibuster — or at least carve out an exception to put an end to the ongoing government shutdown, touted his recent meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, pushed back on claims that prosecutions of former National Security Adviser John Bolton and former FBI Director James Comey were politically motivated, and claimed that ICE agents were not going far enough to remove illegal aliens from the country. 60 minutes tries baiting Trump and getting him to condemn ICE and say they’ve gone too far but Trump had the perfect response: “I think they [ICE] HAVEN’T GONE FAR ENOUGH.. you have to get the people out… Many of them are m*rderers.. criminals.” BOOM ? WE STAND WITH ICE ?? pic.twitter.com/kQwCEKkOt4 — Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) November 2, 2025 “I think they haven’t gone far enough because we’ve been held back by the judges, by the liberal judges that were put in by Biden and by Obama,” Trump told O’Donnell.
