The ouster of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy last year by a handful of renegade Republicans triggered weeks of chaos and paralysis in Congress. But that's nothing to how bad it would be if House Speaker Mike Johnson gets the boot now, election forecaster Harry Enten told CNN's John Berman on Wednesday.

This comes as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is threatening to call such a vote if Johnson moves ahead with mounting pressure to vote on renewing defense aid to Ukraine — something he has resisted for weeks under threats from GOP hardliners, but is increasingly searching for a compromise on to break the impasse. Johnson has defied calls by Greene and her allies to resign.

Share prices in Truth Social's parent company have been taking another beating this week, and CNN's John Berman found himself astonished at just how much the stock has tanked in such a short time.

In discussing the massive slide in Trump Media and Technology's share value, Berman noted that shares are now down more than 70 percent from their all-time high just weeks ago.

Donald Trump has apparently dozed off during each of the first two days of his criminal trial, and MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire said allies are concerned about the "physical toll" of sitting through hours of courtroom proceedings on the 77-year-old former president.

Judge Juan Merchan has already told the ex-president he must attend the trial or face potential jail time, and those who know Trump understand that he lacks discipline and will likely find it hard to control himself in the courtroom during a trial that's expected to last for more than a month.

Donald Trump was admonished by Judge Juan Merchan this week for making comments toward a prospective juror on the second day of his criminal trial, and attorney George Conway said he wasn't surprised by the outburst.

Seven jurors have already been sworn in after a brisk second day of jury selection, and Conway told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" that he was surprised by how quickly the pace has been so far in the unprecedented criminal trial of a former president.

A New Yorker paneled Tuesday during jury selection in former President Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial has alarm bells ringing for one legal expert following the case.

The juror in question is an IT consultant who told the court he found former President Donald Trump "fascinating and mysterious,” and said that he also found it “interesting” that Trump “walks into a room, and he sets people off one way or another," according to a CBS News report.

Alina Habba, longtime attorney for former President Donald Trump, raged on Fox News Tuesday about the fact that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg had the nerve to bring his hush money charges against the former president in Manhattan.

Her particular gripe is what a liberal area it is, making jury selection challenging — although they have already managed to agree to several jurors following Judge Juan Merchan chastising Trump's counsel for trying to take excessive time reviewing prospective jurors' social media activity for anti-Trump statements.

Alina Habba, an attorney for Donald Trump, said her client's concerns about jail would not stop him from potentially violating a judge's gag order.

During a Tuesday appearance on Fox News, host Martha MacCallum asked Habba about an upcoming sanctions hearing that was set after the New York district attorney accused Trump of violating the gag order on three occasions.

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) on Tuesday pulled out a world map as a prop to illustrate the lengthy history of racist comments made by former President Donald Trump.

During a hearing to discuss the 2025 budget request for the Department of Homeland Security, Garcia took apart Trump's recent remarks about wanting to welcome immigrants from "nice" countries like Denmark, Switzerland or Norway, which are overwhelmingly white.

Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) slammed Republicans Tuesday for obeying former President Donald Trump's request to kill a bill that he says would have helped secure the U.S. border.

"The problem is that we don't have the resources to process asylum applications as expeditiously as is necessary," Goldman said during a House Homeland Security hearing. "And in the Senate, they tried to solve the problem. They tried not just with appropriations, but with a policy bill. Unfortunately, the Republicans have put politics over our border security."

The co-hosts of "The View" came out on stage to the Wham! song "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" as part of ridiculing Donald Trump, who reportedly fell asleep in court for a second day on Tuesday.

When the panel began to discuss the first day of the Trump trial jury selection, former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin said that she's never witnessed Trump doze off in a meeting before — but it wouldn't shock her.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) mistakenly suggested that Laken Riley should have been deported before her alleged murder at the hands of an undocumented migrant.

Greene made the remark Tuesday during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing with DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
