President Donald Trump addressed reporters Tuesday before a closed door meeting at which he was expected to pressure Republican members of Congress in an attempt to pass through his ‘big, beautiful bill.”

Some congressional Republicans are balking at passing the budget, claiming it does not go far enough to cut "waste, fraud, and abuse." Other members of the party claim the cuts go too far and will have a negative impact on their constituents.

As Republican lawmakers fight to lower the United States' deficit, CNN’s Harry Enten claims Americans just don’t care about the country’s deficit as much as they do about tax breaks.

“All right, as we speak, President Trump is getting ready to head up to Capitol Hill to try to salvage his multi-trillion-dollar tax and spending cut program,” anchor John Berman said.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough warned that President Donald Trump had little room to maneuver in negotiating an end to Russia's war in Ukraine — and he said the stakes were exceedingly high for him.

The U.S. president spoke to Russian President Vladimir Putin by phone Monday, and afterward said the two adversaries must hash out a peace deal with one another, possibly with the pope's help.

A prominent legal analyst delivered a scathing takedown of the Justice Department's decision to charge a New Jersey congresswoman for her role in a confrontation outside a federal detention facility earlier this month.

Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) was charged by federal prosecutors with assaulting, impeding, and interfering with law enforcement officers during a clash outside the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark. Federal prosecutors said McIver elbowed an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent during the arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, who was part of a group of Democratic lawmakers and local officials visiting the facility to protest its use as a migrant holding center. The group said they sought to conduct legitimate congressional oversight.

President Donald Trump told Walmart executives that they must be the ones responsible for the tariffs on foreign goods coming into the United States, reports revealed Monday. Now, Trump is being compared to the former Queen of France, Marie Antoinette, who was accused of ignoring the suffering of her people.

Lucy Caldwell, the campaign manager for former Republican Rep. Joe Walsh's (IL) presidential campaign, joined with "The Weeknight" hosts as Alecia Menendez walked through the report.

President Donald Trump's administration has finally stopped "lying," at least when it comes to tariffs, remarked an MSNBC host on Monday.

At the top of their show, "The Weeknight," co-host Symone Sanders Townsend responded to recent reports about a key confession from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

When asked about former President Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis, current President Donald Trump said that his predecessor clearly knew about it years ago because he is at "stage nine."

After citing Biden as "stage nine," Trump attacked his cognition, prompting attacks and ridicule.

Many Republicans offered their sympathy and put politics aside at the news of former President Joe Biden's diagnosis of an aggressive, metastasizing form of prostate cancer over the weekend. But far-right commentator Eric Bolling had other ideas.

On his Real America's Voice show, Bolling used the moment to push the unsubstantiated narrative that there was a cover-up and the former president's cancer was known all along — and buried for nefarious purposes.

President Donald Trump was asked about President Joe Biden's cancer diagnosis at the White House on Monday and took a swipe at the former president's doctor.

"I think it's very sad, actually. I'm surprised that it wasn't, you know, the public wasn't notified a long time ago," Trump said. "Again, because to get to stage nine, that's a long time."

Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R) said Monday afternoon he wasn't certain the timing of former President Joe Biden's cancer announcement was genuine.

"It's interesting — the timing of them releasing the cancer, right?" Mullin said from Arlington, Virginia.

Former FBI Director James Comey spoke to MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace on Monday, describing finding the shells on the beach that he posted on his Instagram account last week, which caused an uproar.

Comey said he and his wife were walking on the beach when they came across the shells that spelled out "86 47." At first, Comey said his wife wondered why someone would put their address in the sand.

MSNBC host Katy Tur mocked President Donald Trump on Monday as he backed off peace talks between Ukraine and Russia.

Speaking in the White House garden for an event about artificial intelligence, Trump told the gathering a little about his conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

President Donald Trump revealed that Russian President Vladimir Putin respects First Lady Melania Trump more than her husband.

At a signing ceremony for the Take It Down Act — a bill to fight revenge porn — the U.S. president said he had recently spoken to Putin about ending the war in Ukraine.
