McConnell to Step Down , as Senate Republican Leader.
The Senate's longest-serving leader
ever, Mitch McConnell, will step
down in November, AP reports.
The 82-year-old made the
announcement on Feb.
28.
One of lifeâs most underappreciated talents
is to know when itâs time to
move on to lifeâs next chapter, Mitch McConnell, via statement.
So I stand before you today ... to
say that this will be my last term
as Republican leader of the Senate, Mitch McConnell, via statement.
While McConnell will no longer serve as the Senate's Republican leader, he will complete his term,
"albeit from a different seat in the chamber," he said.
That term ends in January 2027.
President Biden, 81, commented
on the development.
Iâve trusted him and we have
a great relationship.
We fight like
hell.
But he has never, never,
never misrepresented anything, President Joe Biden, via statement.
According to McConnell's aides, the
announcement was not related to health issues.
As I have been thinking about when I would
deliver some news to the Senate, I always
imagined a moment when I had total clarity
and peace about the sunset of my work, Mitch McConnell, via statement.
A moment when I am certain I have
helped preserve the ideals I so
strongly believe.

Senator Lindsey Graham reveals that a sweeping new Senate sanctions bill is on the brink of passage, offering President Trump a âsledgehammerâ to punish not only Russia but also its key global allies like China, India, and Brazil. The legislation empowers Trump to levy up to 500% in tariffs on any nation that continues trading with Moscow â a dramatic escalation in US policy that could reshape global trade dynamics.
Graham predicts âmaximum flexibilityâ for presidential enforcement and signals an imminent surge in military aid to Ukraine, funded by frozen Russian assets. While Moscow dismisses the move as futile and claims it merely fuels Russiaâs independence, the US plans to ratchet up pressure if diplomatic efforts falter. As this bold strategy takes shape, the world braces for a seismic shift in economic warfare.

Vice President J.D. Vance cast the tie-breaking vote in the Senate to pass Trumpâs controversial "One Big, Beautiful Bill" after a night of intense Republican negotiations. The bill, which faced opposition over Medicaid and food stamp cuts, nearly failed due to concerns from Senator Lisa Murkowski. Trump, in Florida visiting the Alligator Alcatraz Detention Center, received the news mid-trip. Vance declared it a âbig win,â while critics, including Elon Musk and Democrats, called it disastrous. Musk has even threatened to form a new party in protest.

Senate narrowly rejected an amendment to fund Planned Parenthood, with a 49â51 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.

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.

Donald Trump just suggested his name appears in the Epstein files because his enemies -- Joe Biden, James Comey and Merrick Garland -- put his name in the files.. TMZ.com
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.

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.
