In record State of the Union, Trump spars with Dems, touts economy and immigration

Hours after the Senate failed to advance a procedural motion to fund the Department of Homeland Security, Trump is expected to demand the "full and immediate restoration of all funding for the Border Security and Homeland Security of the United States," according to an excerpt of his prepared speech.

"As we speak, Democrats in this chamber have cut off all funding for the Department of Homeland Security. They have closed the agency responsible for protecting Americans from terrorists and murderers," the excerpt of his remarks stated.

The president is expected to tout two economic policies he enacted during his first term, according to excerpts of the speech released by the White House.

Trump will talk about "ending the wildly inflated cost of prescription drugs," and will ask Congress to codify his executive order that banned investment firms from buying up single family homes.

"Now I am asking Congress to make that ban permanent, because homes are for people, not corporations," the excerpts read.

Vice President JD Vance, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and other congressional leaders have made their way into the House chamber.

House Speaker Mike Johnson was already at the dais and greeted Vance as he arrived.

President Trump left the White House just after 8:30 to make his way to the Capitol, departing hand in hand with first lady Melania Trump. Trump raised his fist as he headed toward his motorcade, and a wave as it pulled away.
