Texas Democrat who lost to Ted Cruz 8 months ago jumps into 2026 Senate race
Tuesday, 1 July 2025 () Colin Allred, ex-NFL player and congressman, launched a Senate campaign against Sen. John Cornyn with promises to champion those who "play by the rules."
Planned Parenthood is under serious threat as Republicans move closer than ever to cutting its federal Medicaid funding. A surprise Senate ruling has allowed the GOP to include the defunding measure in their sweeping megabill—without needing to overcome a filibuster. Democrats are outraged, warning it’s a direct attack on women’s health and reproductive rights. With $792 million in funding at stake, and abortion access on the line, the battle over Planned Parenthood is reaching a boiling point.

Vice President JD Vance makes a desperate push to pass Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” as a brutal Senate vote-a-rama drags on. With time ticking toward Trump’s July 4th deadline, Vance warns of rising taxes and weakened immigration enforcement if the bill fails. Democrats slam cuts to Medicaid and food stamps, while Republicans haggle over final changes. The high-stakes vote could reshape America’s domestic policy—if it survives the chaos in Congress.

The U.S. Senate has erupted into a political firestorm as Donald Trump’s $3.3 trillion “One Big Beautiful Bill” sparks intense clashes between Republicans and Democrats. What was meant to be a victory lap for Trump ahead of July 4 has turned into a bitter war of words, with GOP lawmakers divided and Democrats pushing back fiercely. Senate Majority Leader John Thune admits there's no clear path forward, while House Speaker Mike Johnson pleads to keep the bill close to the original House version. With Elon Musk threatening to form a new “America Party” if the bill passes, the battle lines are drawn — and America is watching. Will Trump get his way? Or will the bill collapse under the weight of infighting and economic backlash?

In a fiery appearance on Meet the Press, NYC mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani declared there should be “no billionaires” in a city plagued by inequality. Right-wing MAGA figures quickly misquoted him, claiming he opposes billionaires' existence. Mamdani, who just pulled off a major upset against Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary, backs a modest tax hike on millionaires to boost public services. Trump lashed out, calling Mamdani a “communist” and threatening funding. Mamdani dismissed the attacks, saying Trump is using identity politics to distract from policies that hurt workers.

In a fiery political escalation, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took direct aim at Zohran Mamdani — the presumptive Democratic frontrunner in the New York City mayoral race — accusing him of embodying “radical” left-wing ideals. Labeling Democrats as “doubling down on craziness,” Leavitt claimed Mamdani's policies threaten the “very fabric of the country.”
The attack reflects growing Republican unease with Mamdani’s rising influence, particularly after his viral interview clip showed him eating biryani with his hands while championing Third World-inspired politics. With his open support for Palestine, socialism, and progressive reform, Mamdani has drawn praise and vitriol in equal measure. As Trump’s White House attempts to frame the 2025 elections as a choice between order and chaos, Mamdani is emerging as a lightning rod in the cultural and political battlefield. The clash signals a deeper national confrontation brewing around race, identity, and radicalism.

Senate narrowly rejected an amendment to fund Planned Parenthood, with a 49–51 vote. Demonstrators rallied in cities like Anaheim, California, demanding Congress defund the program. Pro-life advocate Lila Rose urged mass support for ending Medicaid funding. Meanwhile, Sen. Patty Murray criticized the bill, which could block reimbursement for cancer screenings and other non-abortion services. A recent Supreme Court ruling has empowered states to cut off Medicaid to Planned Parenthood, potentially closing 200 clinics and affecting millions of low-income Americans.

Senators Cory Booker and Ted Cruz engaged in a fiery exchange during a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on threats to federal judges. As Cruz accused Democrats of remaining silent during threats against conservative justices, Booker pushed back, calling the remarks “dangerous” and a “patent lie.” The tense back-and-forth highlighted rising political divisions over judicial safety, enforcement of protest laws, and the legacy of Trump-era rhetoric. The hearing, titled "The Supposedly Least Dangerous Branch," underscored growing concerns about the politicization of the judiciary and partisan responses to violence and intimidation.
