A GOP strategist on Wednesday chided Florida's new plan for vaccines during an interview on CNN.

T.W. Arrighi, the former press secretary for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, joined CNN's "The Lead with Jake Tapper" to discuss the Trump administration's approach to vaccines and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s handling of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Retired Green Beret Anthony Aguilar was escorted from the U.S. Senate while yelling that the country was complicit in genocide.

The Drop Site News substack posted the video on social media, noting that Aguilar is perhaps most known as the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation subcontractor who was fired after he was accused of creating "a hostile work environment" and was “disruptive and confrontational."

As President Donald Trump continues to threaten federal military action in Chicago, Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D-IL) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) traded attacks in public.

Pritzker, the billionaire heir of the Hyatt hotel fortune and a progressive politician in his second term as governor, has taken the gloves off in recent speeches, warning the president to back off his threats, attacking Trump's "slipping mental faculties," and telling him, "do not come" to Chicago.

One reporter dedicated to the story of Jeffrey Epstein and the investigation around an alleged trafficking ring of underage girls revealed that the survivors thought that MAGA followers were dedicated to accountability for Epstein and those like him.

Speaking to MSNBC on Wednesday, Tara Palmeri told Nicolle Wallace that the survivors, who came forward for the Wednesday press conference, are largely Republicans. They trusted that conservatives would fight to ensure they and others like them got justice.

Donald Trump Jr. suggested that New York City "needs" a disaster to teach voters not to elect politicians like mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani (D).

On Wednesday, Trump spoke to Fox News after The New York Times reported that his father's advisors were discussing possible jobs for mayoral candidates Eric Adams and Curtis Sliwa to clear the field for Andrew Cuomo to defeat Mamdani.

A GOP strategist said Wednesday that President Donald Trump is violating a "cardinal rule" of politics by picking a fight with victims of Jeffrey Epstein's crimes.

Survivors of Epstein's crimes held a press conference outside of the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, where several of them shared their personal stories and called on Congress to release the files. A few moments after the press conference ended, Trump spoke with reporters in the Oval Office, where he said the Epstein files are "a Democrat hoax that won't go away."

Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping were caught discussing how to use organ harvesting to become immortal.

During Putin's visit with Xi on Wednesday, the two leaders spoke while attending China's Victory Day parade. The men, both 72, could be heard on CCTV discussing aspirations to live to 150.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) spoke out against President Donald Trump after the White House said that an effort in Congress to force the release of files on sex offender Jeffrey Epstein would be seen as a "hostile act."

During a House Judiciary Committee hearing on Wednesday, Crockett accused Trump of "weaponizing his idea of free speech to force folks and companies to become his political puppets to promote his propaganda."

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) defied President Donald Trump to vote to advance the release of files from the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case — but then quickly stepped in to give a full-throated MAGA defense of Trump's own involvement with the late financier.

Mace was one of a small handful of Republicans to sign the discharge petition from Reps. Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY), compelling the release of the remaining Epstein files. The Trump administration has warned GOP lawmakers that backing the petition is a "hostile act" against Trump, and Massie, a frequent thorn in the side of GOP leadership, hit back by suggesting Trump “may be covering for some rich and powerful people that are friends of his.”

Donald Trump Jr. said he called his father over the weekend "to make sure" he wasn't dead.

During a Wednesday interview on Newsmax, host Bianca de la Garza noted that rumors had circulated about the president's demise.

President Donald Trump called the demand for documents around the Jeffrey Epstein investigation nothing more than a "Democrat hoax" when speaking from the Oval Office on Wednesday.

However, one legal expert warned that the press conference of Epstein survivors outside of the U.S. Capitol will inspire more survivors to come forward, including those who are unrelated to the Epstein matter. She noted perhaps there might be more new indictments.
