A transgender influencer fired back at President Donald Trump after his joke comparing the biological male to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins during Friday night’s White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) Dinner went viral.
«Maybe being publicly mocked and criticized by this administration is actually like the greatest compliment of all,» said Dylan Mulvaney in a TikTok post on Sunday. «Because it puts me in the company of some of the most brilliant, empathetic people in our world today.»
Mulvaney, once a social media star and one of the most recognizable transgender people in the United States, has maintained a low profile over the past few years since an advertising debacle featuring the influencer tanked the stock of a major beer company.

TRUMP SPARES NO ONE AT WHCA DINNER, TAKING AIM AT DEMS, PRESS AND HIS OWN CABINET
But Mulvaney was thrust back into the spotlight after Trump’s WHCA Dinner joke comparing the transgender influencer to Collins, a longtime media foe of the 45th and 47th president.
«I thought Kaitlan Collins had really made it big with a major new sponsorship, but then I informed her that it wasn’t her on the Bud Light can, it was Dylan Mulvaney,» he said, referencing the beer brand’s failed marketing campaign.
In 2023, Bud Light partnered with Mulvaney for a March Madness promotion. On Instagram, Mulvaney posted a video featuring a Bud Light can with their face on it, sparking intense backlash, a prolonged boycott and a more than $27 billion loss in market cap for Anheuser-Busch.
«To the president, thank you for reminding me that I am more powerful than I even knew,» Mulvaney said in the Sunday video. «And to quote my favorite recording artist, Shea Diamond, ‘I am America.’»

JOURNALISTS DEMAND WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS’ ASSOCIATION ‘SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER’ IN NEW DINNER WITH TRUMP
Trump took his time roasting Collins in his hour-and-four-minute remarks at the WHCA Dinner on Friday.
Besides comparing her to a biological male who transitioned to female in a TikTok series where they would chronicle every day of ‘becoming a girl,’ Trump also took a swipe at her apparently steely demeanor.
«I want to personally congratulate CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on receiving her award. It was all about me. It’s a fake. She shouldn’t get the award. It was a fake, but I didn’t mind. I said, ‘Kaitlan, congratulations.’ But it was fake. There’s no question about it,» Trump said.
Collins received the WHCA Award for Excellence in Presidential News Coverage Under Deadline Pressure for broadcast due to her reporting on the contentious Oval Office meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Trump in February 2025.
«But she’s a young, attractive woman,» Trump went on, adding, «She never smiles. I said, ‘Kaitlan, do you ever smile? Smile. You have a nice position. You’re at CNN — fake news. You should be a happy person. So smile, Kaitlan. Just smile.’»

Collins appeared to respond to Trump’s jokes at her expense in an Instagram post over the weekend featuring a quote from Eleanor Roosevelt.
«No one can make you feel inferior without your consent,» the quote said.

CNN’s public relations team also posted a statement on X after Trump’s remarks about one of their biggest stars.
«We stand by our journalists and the integrity and fair mindedness with which the CNN team reports the news,» the statement, attributed to Chairman and CEO Mark Thompson, said.
«Honest, accurate journalism may sometimes irritate politicians, but our right to report and present that reporting to the public without government interference is fully protected by the U.S. Constitution. CNN will continue to exercise this right.»

Brasil presentó un pedido de consultas contra EEUU ante la Organización Mundial del Comercio por los nuevos aranceles de Trump

Brasil presentó un pedido de consultas contra Estados Unidos ante la Organización Mundial del Comercio (OMC) por los nuevos aranceles impuestos a varios productos brasileños, en un paso que podría derivar en un proceso formal de solución de controversias.
El gobierno brasileño informó que la solicitud se presentó el 27 de julio dentro del mecanismo de resolución de disputas de la OMC. En un comunicado, la cancillería precisó que «Brasil presentó, el 27 de julio, pedido de consultas a Estados Unidos en el ámbito del sistema de solución de controversias de la OMC» porque «considera que las medidas estadounidenses son injustificadas e incompatibles» con las reglas del comercio internacional.
El pedido de consultas constituye la primera etapa del procedimiento previsto por la OMC antes de la eventual conformación de un panel que analice el caso si las partes no alcanzan un acuerdo.
El nuevo gravamen del 25%, anunciado la semana pasada por la administración Trump, surge de una investigación de la Oficina del Representante de Comercio de Estados Unidos (USTR), que concluyó que determinadas políticas brasileñas son «desleales» y perjudican a empresas estadounidenses.
Entre las prácticas cuestionadas figuran el sistema de pagos automáticos PIX, las barreras de acceso a mercados brasileños como los sectores automotriz y de combustibles, la gestión de la lucha contra la corrupción, la legislación sobre propiedad intelectual y la deforestación ilegal.
Se calcula que la nueva tarifa afectará al 18% de las exportaciones brasileñas hacia Estados Unidos, aunque algunas asociaciones comerciales estiman que el impacto podría alcanzar hasta un tercio del total. Los sectores más expuestos son máquinas industriales, azúcar, etanol, madera y calzado.
No obstante, Trump excluyó del arancel a unos 2.100 productos, entre ellos la carne, el café, el petróleo, las piezas para aviones, el zumo de naranja y las tierras raras, insumos considerados estratégicos para la industria estadounidense.
La administración de Donald Trump aplicó este mes dos nuevas rondas de aranceles contra productos brasileños. Una fija gravámenes del 25% por supuestas prácticas comerciales desleales y la otra establece un arancel adicional del 12,5% por el presunto uso de trabajo forzado.
El presidente brasileño Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva cuestionó esas medidas y sostuvo que responden a motivaciones políticas en un año electoral, cuando buscará la reelección dentro de menos de tres meses.
La disputa comercial se suma a un conflicto previo entre ambos países. En 2025, Brasil también recurrió a la OMC después de que Washington impusiera aranceles del 50% como represalia por el proceso judicial por golpismo que terminó con la condena del expresidente Jair Bolsonaro (2019-2022), padre del actual candidato presidencial Flávio Bolsonaro, principal rival de Lula en las elecciones de octubre.

Aquel primer paquete de sanciones comerciales se revirtió posteriormente en gran parte, aunque la relación bilateral volvió a tensarse tras la imposición de los nuevos gravámenes estadounidenses.
Lula también sostuvo que Flávio Bolsonaro, aliado político de Trump, impulsó la presión arancelaria de Washington durante la campaña electoral brasileña. El dirigente opositor rechazó esa acusación.
La tensión entre ambos gobiernos también alcanzó el plano diplomático. El sábado, Brasil negó las visas a dos funcionarios estadounidenses que pretendían reunirse con autoridades electorales brasileñas, después de que Flávio Bolsonaro cuestionara la fiabilidad del sistema de votación electrónica del país.

Fox News Poll: Cool your servers! Voters reject data centers

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
While U.S. tech companies race for AI dominance, the latest Fox News nationwide survey finds voters hitting the brakes on data centers, as more prefer taking time to address local concerns than rushing expansion to maintain a competitive global edge.
By a 40-point margin, voters oppose building data centers in their area to support artificial intelligence (30% favor, 70% oppose).
MAGA supporters (46% favor) and Republican men (45%) are the groups most likely to favor data centers, while White women with a college degree (84% oppose) and liberal voters (80%) are the most opposed.
FOX NEWS POLL: VOTERS WANT MAJOR CHANGE AMID ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL DISCONTENT
Among those favoring data centers, 60% cite economic benefits, including jobs, economic growth, community investment, and tax revenue as the reason for their support. Another 21% point to technological benefits, saying the centers are useful, necessary, or important for future progress. Just 2% say staying ahead of competitors is the primary reason for their support.
Those opposing data centers emphasize a different set of considerations. Half (50%) say environmental issues are their main concern, including energy and water use, pollution, noise, and overall environmental impact, while far fewer mention quality-of-life concerns (14%), economic effects (11%), or simply having a negative view of AI (11%).
FOX NEWS POLL: SIGNIFICANT SUPPORT FOR BOTH VOTER ID LAWS AND MAIL-IN BALLOTS
While data centers are broadly unpopular, views of artificial intelligence technology itself are somewhat less negative. Overall, 45% view AI favorably versus 54% unfavorably, underwater by 9 points. In April, it was -11 points.
Positive views of AI are higher among MAGA Republicans (55% favorable), voters with graduate degrees (52%), conservatives (50%), and men (49%) than among Democrats (41%), those without a college degree (43%), liberals (37%), and women (40%).
Nearly 8 in 10 voters prefer slower data center construction to address environmental and community concerns, while 2 in 10 favor building them as quickly as possible to maintain a competitive advantage over China and other countries.
While majorities across the board prefer the slow adoption of the centers, MAGA Republicans (36%) and very conservatives (35%) are the most likely to prioritize rapid expansion to maintain international competitiveness.
AI won’t find an ally in the under 30 crowd
Although younger voters are often viewed as more tech-savvy, that does not translate into warm views of artificial intelligence.
Voters under age 30 are the least likely to view AI favorably, at 38%, compared with 48% of those ages 30-44 and 44% of those 45 and over.

Regardless of differences in views of AI, attitudes toward data centers are pretty consistent across generations. Roughly 7 in 10 in every age group oppose building data centers, and about 8 in 10 prefer slowing construction to address environmental and local concerns.
Conducted July 17–20, 2026, under the direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company Research (R), this Fox News survey includes interviews with a sample of 1,003 registered voters randomly selected from a national voter file. Respondents spoke with live interviewers on landlines (70) and cellphones (681) or completed the survey online after receiving a text (252). Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of ±3 percentage points. The survey includes an oversample of 200 voters aged 18–29, bringing the sample size for that subgroup to 350 (±5). Sampling error for results among subgroups is higher. In addition to sampling errors, question wording and order can influence results. Weights are generally applied to age, race, education, and area variables to ensure the demographics are representative of the registered voter population. Sources for developing weight targets include the most recent American Community Survey, Fox News Voter Analysis, and voter file data.
