MAGA Senator Slammed for False Claim: Trump Works Weekends
Senator Markwayne Mullin received criticism after posting on X that he was “working through the weekend” with President Donald Trump. Many quickly pointed out that Trump’s public schedule showed him at Mar-a-Lago, far from the Oval Office, at the time of the post. While Trump ordered the Senate to stay in D.C. to negotiate an end to the government shutdown, his weekend plans included a lavish party at his resort. Mullin, who was in D.C., later clarified that the meeting had been the prior evening, but critics continued to call out the implication that Trump was also working through the weekend.
