Rep. Lauren Underwood (D-IL) grilled Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem about her agency's decision to withhold federal grant money without permission from Congress.

"Let's start with Article 1 [of the Constitution], which gives Congress and only Congress the power of the purse," Underwood told Noem at a House Appropriations Committee hearing on Tuesday. "But this administration is freezing, terminating, and even clawing back federal grants and awards that were already signed into law."

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale made clear Tuesday morning that President Donald Trump is “wildly overstating” when he bashes Canada.

The comments came ahead of Trump’s meeting Tuesday with the new Prime Minister of Canada, Mark Carney.

The Trump administration has offered $1,000 to undocumented migrants who agree to deport themselves — and MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire claimed that reveals the failure of the president's immigration policies.

The policy would offer cash stipend and a flight home for each immigrant who agrees to leave, which President Donald Trump insisted was necessary to achieve the administration's goals, but the "Morning Joe" co-host told panelists that the payouts were an admission that his campaign promises on the issue had so far fallen flat.

CNN’s data analyst Harry Enten gave President Donald Trump a rare win Tuesday after weeks of bashing his horrendous approval ratings.

The expert broke down the latest polls on how Americans feel about Trump's handling of crime — and what he saw was a bright spot for the president.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough blasted Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick for accusing Canada's "socialist regime" of stealing from the U.S. ahead of a meeting between its newly elected prime minister and President Donald Trump.

The commerce secretary cast doubt on the possibility of cutting a deal to avert a trade war, saying "they have been basically feeding off of us for decades upon decades upon decades." The "Morning Joe" host mocked his understanding of basic economics.

Mike Pence, former vice president for Donald Trump, gave his old boss a slap on the wrist late Monday during an exclusive new interview on CNN's "The Source" with anchor Kaitlan Collins.

In introducing the segment, Collins called Pence's comments "perhaps his biggest and sharpest break" with Trump.

Former Vice President Mike Pence expressed concern Monday over President Donald Trump’s approach to trade and tariffs, warning of possible economic consequences, including price shocks and product shortages.

The comments came Monday during an exclusive interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, where the former vice president aired several grievances with his ex-boss’s sweeping tariff policy. He also questioned whether Trump is backtracking on a key campaign promise to bring down prices.

Former Vice President Mike Pence continuously tried to assert in his interview with CNN that he had confidence in President Donald Trump's ability to uphold the Constitution even as he had to go against Trump to do so in 2020.

Anchor Kaitlan Collins repeatedly pressed him on her show, "The Source," about instances where Trump appeared unwilling to follow the Constitution.

President Donald Trump is scrambling to whip the votes in the Senate from reluctant members of his own party to confirm his pick for federal prosecutor in Washington, D.C., Ed Martin, CNN reporter Paula Reid told anchor Erin Burnett on Monday evening.

Martin, a far-right activist from Missouri who had no prosecutorial experience prior to his appointment to the U.S. attorney's office on an acting basis, has repeatedly come under fire for his erratic and ethically dubious behavior, including trying to dismiss cases he previously acted as defense counsel on, and threatening inappropriate criminal investigations of entities ranging from Wikipedia to the American College of Chest Physicians. He has even had to apologize for praising a Nazi sympathizer.

The founder and CEO of a clothing company made a direct appeal to Donald Trump during a CNN interview Monday, where the MAGA supporter urged the president to reconsider his sweeping tariff policy that he said is threatening small businesses like his own.

Steven Borrelli of Cuts Clothing, who said he voted for Trump three times, told CNN’s Jake Tapper that his e-commerce company has been hit hard by the 145% tariff on goods coming from China. Cuts, a California-based menswear brand, relied on a workaround known as the “3-2-1 loophole” – importing items from China through Mexico and bringing them across the U.S. border on a daily basis.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has instructed top Pentagon officials to reduce the ranks of four-star generals and admirals by at least 20%, CNN reported Monday.

This cut applies across all branches of the military, which currently has 37 four-star officers. The directive also mandates a 20% reduction in National Guard generals and a 10% overall decrease in all general and flag officers (those ranked one-star and above), who currently number around 900.

More than a dozen former employees of the powerful data-mining firm Palantir Technologies shredded their former employer in a letter obtained exclusively by NPR, in which they seek to trigger a "domino effect" that will spread throughout Silicon Valley.

The thirteen ex-workers slammed their former workplace — which was co-founded by Trump ally billionaire Peter Thiel — over revelations that Immigration and Customs Enforcement reached a deal to pay Palantir $30 million to develop "ImmigrationOS," a tracking system designed to help ICE agents identify migrants for deportation, track self-deportation cases, and share data with other agencies like Customs and Border Protection.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) warned Monday afternoon on CNN that immigrants should hear alarm bells over the Trump administration's new offer to give $1,000 to unauthorized immigrants who "self-deport" to their country of origin rather than let themselves be arrested by immigration enforcement — an arrangement some legal experts have warned is a trap.

"So President Trump says his administration's latest self-deportation policy will allow some migrants a potential path back to the U.S.," said anchor Jake Tapper, playing a clip of Trump's longtime far-right immigration adviser Stephen Miller, discussing the new plan.
