Trump Calls Catching COVID-19 “A Blessing From God” In White House Video
After spending a few days in the hospital receiving treatment for COVID-19, President Donald Trump is back in the White House. America’s controversial leader has been reguarly updating his world audience since he was released from Walter Reed Hospital, and just hours ago he returned with a video where he spoke about his treatment, his plans for coronavirus patients currently battling COVID-19, and why he believes his diagnosis was a “blessing in disguise.”

“Perhaps you recognize me, it’s your favorite president, and I’m standing in front of the Oval Office at the White House which is always an exciting place to be,” said Trump. “I got back a day ago from Walter Reed medical center. I spent four days there. Didn’t have to. I could have stayed at the White House but the doctor said because you’re President, let’s do it. I said fine. You tell me what to do and I’m gonna listen.”
He praised the doctoral staff at Walter Reed before giving a nod to all hospital care and law enforcement workers, as well as firefighters around the country. “I went in, I wasn’t feeling so hot and within a very short period of time, they gave me Regeneron and other things, too. I think this was the key. But they gave me Regeneron and it was like, unbelievable. I felt good immediately. I felt as good three days ago as I do now.”
The President added that he authorized the emergency use of Regeneron and other drugs to help those in dire need, stating that they would be available for free. He also gave an update on companies who have been working on finding a COVID-19 vaccaine, but said in the meantime, he wants to see citizen treated with the same care that he received.
“I want everybody to be given the same treatment as your President,” Trump said. “‘Cause I feel great. I feel like, perfect. So, I think this was a blessing from God that I caught it. This was a blessing in disguise. I caught it, I heard about this drug, I said let me take it, it was my suggestion, and it was incredible the way it worked.” Watch his update in its entirety below.

PLAN-A-EMCEE unveils a call to see clearly with latest release “Lyrically Reclaim Your Brain”
PLAN-A-EMCEE‘s latest release, “Lyrically Reclaim Your Brain,” is a lo-fi hip hop and cloud rap album with a waking-up theme. This one is for those stuck in an NPC-like life, moving toward awakening and ready to challenge their environment. The infectious hook is hard to miss, and delivers the song’s main message, “unmask the blindfold, that you might see!”
The track concept is simple and focused, produced by and rapped by Emcee PLAN-A-EMCEE, aka Anwar. The combination creates a direct relationship between the beat and the vocals, keeping the message front and center. The busy musical approach lets the words do the heavy lifting over the cold lo-fi base.
“Lyrically Reclaim Your Brain” is a musical reminder to pause, look closer, and be more aware of your surroundings. PLAN-A-EMCEE turns that idea into a memorable hip-hop statement, with an infectious refrain and an undeniably purposeful edge.

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show Just Swept The Emmys
Bad Bunny is officially an Emmy winner — and not just once. At Saturday’s Creative Arts Emmys, his Super Bowl LX Halftime Show swept every single category it was nominated in, all seven of them, making it the most-decorated nominee of the night.
The headline win was Outstanding Variety Special (Live), a category the show became only the third halftime show ever to claim. From there it just kept going: music direction, choreography, sound mixing, lighting design, technical direction and camerawork, and directing all went home with the Puerto Rican star’s team. There’s technically an eighth trophy with his name attached, too, though it won’t land in his hands — the “Saturday Night Live” episode he hosted last season separately won Outstanding Makeup for a Variety, Nonfiction, or Reality Program.
The sweep is good news for Jay-Z as well. As an executive producer on the halftime show, he now has two Emmys to his name, having previously won for producing Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl LIX performance in 2025 — the show that, until Saturday, held the record for most Emmys won by a Super Bowl performance.
Bad Bunny wasn’t the only one having a night. Sabrina Carpenter picked up her first Emmy as a performer and executive producer on “The Muppet Show,” edging out Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour | The Final Show” for Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded). The Billy Joel HBO miniseries “And So It Goes” won for sound mixing on a nonfiction program, and 50 Cent’s Diddy documentary “Sean Combs: The Reckoning” took home picture editing honors. A big weekend for live spectacle, all around.
