President Donald Trump made waves when he invited the U.S. men’s Olympic hockey team to his State of the Union address after the men struck gold at the Milan Cortina Olympics this Sunday.

But it’s not just Trump’s invitation that has the left up in arms.

FBI Director Kash Patel was also celebrating the win in the locker room with the team and held a phone up to the players on speakerphone so that Trump could deliver a message.

"We’re giving the State of the Union speech on Tuesday night," Trump said. "I can send a military plane or something, but if you would like to, it’s the coolest night, it’s the biggest speech."

As Trump spoke, one player interjected, “We’re in.”

"I must tell you: We're going to have to bring the women's team. You do know that. I do believe I probably would be impeached, okay?"

BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock was thrilled with the men’s Olympic win and calls the outrage over Trump’s invitation “fool's gold” and “phony outrage.”

“All of these feminists, all of these Marxists that are running around pretending that Donald Trump and the men’s hockey team have done something wrong. All of them running around pretending like, ‘Well, the women, they won gold too,’” he says.

“This whole controversy is a joke. Of course the women won gold in women’s hockey. What are there, like, three countries in the world that take hockey seriously for women?” he jokes.

Unlike women’s hockey, men’s hockey has been a staple of the Olympics since 1920.

“We’ve won three gold medals in men’s hockey over the course of 106 years. It’s a big deal when the men win. We’re not the most talented men’s team. Canada is. Don’t fall for the fool's gold,” Whitlock says.

“And Donald Trump doesn’t have to apologize, and Kash Patel doesn’t have to apologize, and the men’s U.S. hockey team doesn’t have to apologize,” he continues, “because Trump lives in reality and was talking to a group of men who just accomplished something incredible.”

Republicans were pleased after Trump spoke during the State of the Union about his plan to continue imposing global tariffs after the Supreme Court dealt him a setback.

Larry Summers, an economist and former treasury secretary, announced that he is stepping away from his role as a tenured professor at Harvard University following criticism for his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

In November, a document dump of 20,000 pages revealed that Summers communicated with Epstein in 2018 and 2019, including within weeks of Epstein’s arrest, the Wall Street Journal reported.

'I have made the difficult decision to retire from my Harvard professorship at the end of this academic year.'

Epstein described himself as Summers’ “wing man” in one email. Summers and his wife reportedly briefly visited Epstein’s island during their 2005 honeymoon.

Summers served as the treasury secretary under former President Bill Clinton from 1999 to 2001. He was also the director of the National Economic Council under former President Barack Obama. Summers held a position as the president of Harvard University from 2001 to 2006.

Shortly after his messages with Epstein came to light, Summers lost his partnerships and positions with several organizations, including the New York Times, the Center for American Progress, BloombergTV, and the Yale Budget Lab. He also resigned from his seat on the OpenAI board.

“I am deeply ashamed of my actions and recognize the pain they have caused,” Summers said in November. “I take full responsibility for my misguided decision to continue communicating with Mr. Epstein.”

Summers held onto his teaching and leadership positions at Harvard University amid the fallout. However, he has been on leave since November.

Summers announced Wednesday that he would retire at the end of the academic year.

“I have made the difficult decision to retire from my Harvard professorship at the end of this academic year,” Summers said. “I will always be grateful to the thousands of students and colleagues I have been privileged to teach and work with since coming to Harvard as a graduate student 50 years ago.”

“Free of formal responsibility, as President Emeritus and a retired professor, I look forward in time to engaging in research, analysis, and commentary on a range of global economic issues,” he added.

A spokesperson for Harvard told the WSJ that the school had accepted Summers’ resignation “in connection with the ongoing review by the university of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein that were recently released by the government.”
