Rep.
Scott DesJarlais has called for an amendment to
the Constitution that would require presidential
nominees to show proof of "cognitive competence.".
The amendment holds that, "No person shall be eligible to hold the office
of President or Vice President unless the person demonstrates cognitive competence.".
Fox News reports that the amendment also gives Congress the authority to determine how to test candidates for president and vice president.
The news comes just days after presidential
candidate Nikki Haley called for "mental
competency tests" for lawmakers over the age of 75.
Last week, when Haley announced
her candidacy, she said it was time for
the "permanent politician" to step aside.
.
She reportedly added that while
America is not past its prime, "our politicians are past theirs.".
According to Fox News, both statements
were widely perceived as a dig at both
President Biden and former President Trump.

As MAGA infighting deepens, Donald Trump has publicly praised far-right activist Laura Loomer, calling her a âvery nice personâ and a âpatriotâ in response to a reporter's pointed question about her influence in his circle. The endorsement comes amid Loomer's own controversy â she recently unveiled a âtip lineâ aimed at helping Trump allies report and remove âdisloyalâ government staffers. Loomer claims Biden holdovers and anti-Trump insiders are sabotaging the movement from within and insists âhundredsâ need to be purged.
The president's warm words about her raise eyebrows, especially as he attempts to consolidate power ahead of the upcoming election. Loomerâs call for a MAGA-only government has sparked concern across Washington, while Trump appears to embrace her ideology. Critics see the move as a dangerous precedent, while supporters argue it's a long-overdue loyalty check. The line between activism and influence seems blurrier than ever inside Trumpâs inner circle.

U.S President Donald Trump launched a harsh public tirade against Charlamagne âThe God,â calling him a âracist sleazebagâ and âlow IQ individualâ while questioning the acceptability of his self-appointed moniker. Trump also took aim at his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, for appearing on Charlamagneâs showâhighlighting the irony of her high ratings success. In a scathing statement, he hailed his own record of ending five wars, bolstering the economy, and slashing inflation, while denouncing âstupid and corruptâ President Joe Biden. The accusations included wiping out Iranâs nuclear ambitions and fixing the border, crafting a braggadocious defense of his performance in office. His unfiltered critique of both media and family members drew widespread attention, fueling a media storm and sparking debate about the boundaries of political discourse and public insult.

President Trump has fired Bureau of Labor Statistics Director Erika McEntarfer following a disappointing July jobs report that added only 73,000 jobs and included major downward revisions to May and June. Trump accused the agency of political manipulation, claiming the numbers were âriggedâ and damaging to the economy. Unemployment ticked up to 4.2%, sparking a 1.5% market drop. McEntarfer, a Biden appointee, became a target of Trumpâs fury as economists warn that politicizing labor data could erode trust in a cornerstone of economic governance.

A dramatic series of no-fly zone breaches rocked Bedminster, New Jersey, over the weekend while U.S. President Donald Trump was present at his private golf club. According to NORAD, at least seven violations of the Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) zone occurred, including one major incident on Sunday afternoon that required fighter jets to intercept a civilian aircraft using flares. NORAD stated the flares may have been visible to the public but were deployed safely. The intercepted aircraft was safely escorted out of the restricted airspace. These incidents are not isolated â similar breaches have occurred during Trump's visits in the past. NORAD emphasized that pilots must stay updated on FAA notices to avoid such security lapses. The situation has once again raised concerns about presidential airspace security and pilot compliance near high-risk zones, especially with such repeated breaches at the Bedminster location in a short period.

U.S. President Donald Trump has revealed that his special envoy, Steve Witkoff, may visit Russia on August 6 or 7 â just one or two days before the ceasefire deadline he has set for Moscow. If Russia fails to reach a peace deal with Ukraine by August 8, Trump says sweeping secondary tariffs will hit Russian oil and gas exports â and also target countries like India and China that continue to trade with Moscow.
Witkoff, who controversially met President Putin in April, drew criticism for echoing Kremlin narratives and using Russian translators during their talks. Despite his original role as Middle East envoy, Witkoff now appears to be Trumpâs unofficial channel to Putin. The pressure is mounting: Trump says sanctions are ready, but also admitted Russia is âpretty good at avoiding them.â A critical moment is approaching, with diplomatic brinkmanship and global trade consequences at stake.

U.S. President Donald Trump is under fire after praising actress Sydney Sweeneyâs controversial American Eagle jeans ad â one critics are calling a "white supremacist dog whistle." Trump called the ad âfantasticâ during a media interaction, but only after being informed that Sweeney is a registered Republican voter in Florida.
The ad, which uses the pun âSydney Sweeney has great genes,â has been accused of having racial undertones and promoting problematic narratives. Online backlash exploded, yet Trump doubled down on his support, further politicizing the already heated campaign.
This isnât the first time Sweeneyâs political affiliations have made headlines. From her MAGA-themed family party photos to her current GOP registration, the actress is quickly becoming a lightning rod in Hollywoodâs culture wars.
Watch the full video to see how fashion, politics, and celebrity culture collided â and why Trumpâs comments may have made it worse.

U.S. President Donald Trump is once again making bold claimsâthis time demanding the Nobel Peace Prize for what he calls âending 5 beautiful wars.â In a fiery Truth Social post and recent interviews, Trump insisted he played a key role in settling multiple global conflicts, saying, âWeâve settled a lot of very beautiful wars.â Without naming specifics, he credited trade deals and diplomacy under his leadership for stopping wars that âcouldâve gone nuclear.â

Outspoken Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene has condemned U.S. funding for the Ukraine war, calling it a âcomplete betrayalâ of American taxpayers. Referring to Trumpâs 2024 victory, Greene argued that voters had rejected foreign wars, yet Washington continues to finance conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. She accused Democratsâand some neocon Republicansâof pushing an âAmerica LASTâ agenda while warning that such policies will alienate younger voters permanently.
Greene even called Israelâs Gaza offensive a âgenocide,â highlighting deep fractures within Trumpâs GOP. Despite campaign promises to end the war, Trump recently approved additional military support for Kiev, including Patriot missile systems. The debate exposes growing discontent among Republican ranks about endless foreign interventions and unchecked military spending. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials praised Trumpâs support, calling it a vital deterrent against Russian advances. Greene warned that ignoring these political alarm bells could prove disastrous for U.S. unity and voter trust.

President Donald Trump has publicly backed Tulsi Gabbard after she declassified explosive findings that claim top Obama-era officials conspired to delegitimize Trumpâs 2016 election victory. Gabbard, now serving as Director of National Intelligence, revealed âoverwhelming evidenceâ that senior figuresâincluding Obama, Brennan, and Clapperâused false intelligence to initiate the TrumpâRussia collusion narrative.
She labeled the alleged actions as a "treasonous conspiracy" designed to subvert the will of American voters. Trump praised Fox News and Gabbard on Truth Social, calling the report a bombshell. Gabbard is submitting all materials to the DOJ for criminal investigation. The report also casts doubt on the Steele Dossier and claims internal memos disproved cyber tampering allegations before they were altered to implicate Russia. The revelations could reignite political tensions ahead of the 2024 elections as Republicans push for legal action.

In a scathing rebuke, top Trump aide Stephen Miller has accused India of "financing Russiaâs war in Ukraine" by continuing to import oil from Moscow. Speaking on Fox News, Miller expressed alarm over Indiaâs near-parity with China in buying Russian crude â calling it an âastonishing fact.â This comes after President Trump, escalating economic pressure, imposed a 25% tariff on Indian goods and warned of a potential 100% tariff on imports from countries dealing with Russia.
Indian officials, however, remain firm on maintaining ties with Moscow for oil purchases. The Indian Embassy in Washington has not responded, but sources told Reuters that New Delhi will not bow to threats. Miller noted Trump's "tremendous" relationship with PM Modi, but the strong rhetoric signals a shift. The stakes are high, and tensions are brewing as Trump's foreign policy sharpens its focus on global alignments.

Donald Trumpâs approval ratings have hit a second-term low across major polls. Reuters/Ipsos shows just 40% support, while Gallup reports 37%. Even traditionally favorable outlets like Fox News show net disapproval. Swing states such as Florida, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin report negative ratings, with Trump underwater in 13 of 31 states he won in 2024. Key issues include dissatisfaction over his tariff policies and handling of the Epstein case. Voters give him mixed marks on the economy and immigration.

Pam Bondi is facing intense backlash from MAGA loyalists following the DOJ and FBIâs conclusion that there is no âEpstein client list.â The admission contradicts Bondiâs claim that such a list existed and was âon her desk,â a statement she made on Fox News in February. MAGA influencers like Laura Loomer, Liz Wheeler, and Megyn Kelly have publicly criticized Bondi, accusing her of either ignorance or laziness.
Sources say FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino is considering resigning after a heated dispute with Bondi, while FBI Chief Kash Patel may follow suit. Internal friction has escalated into a full-blown crisis, with calls for Bondiâs resignation intensifying across conservative media. This debacle comes amid renewed scrutiny over Epstein documents and rising frustration that key files remain unreleased. The fallout could result in a major shakeup within the DOJ and Trump-aligned circles, with Bondi at the center of the storm.
