Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) won Georgia's Republican Senate primary Tuesday night with President Donald Trump's backing, defeating former football coach Derek Dooley (R-GA).

Collins now faces Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) in what experts predict will be one of the country's most contentious Senate races.

The widow of a flight test engineer killed in Monday's B-52 bomber crash at Edwards Air Force Base says her husband knew the aircraft was having problems in the days before the deadly flight.

Monday’s deadly plane crash in California killed all eight of its passengers, including Defense Department contractor Jeromy Smith, who flagged the B-52’s technical difficulties days prior, according to KTLA.

Conservative former Naval War College professor and writer for The Atlantic, Tom Nichols, had a blunt assessment of President Donald Trump's pie-in-the-sky dreams for the Iran war, as the president goes all in on a deal to end it that makes Iran considerably stronger than before everything started and left many of his own supporters furious.

MS NOW's Melissa Murray showed him a clip of Trump justifying the deal on the world stage, saying, "The alternative would be a worldwide depression. We run out of reserves in about four weeks. You know, there are reserves all over the world. And we would really run out. And there would be a time when you couldn't get it. And you would've seen bedlam."

President Donald Trump floored onlookers on Wednesday after he dismissed a reporter's question about the bombing strike on an Iranian girls' school more than three months ago that left about 175 people dead, many of whom were children.

Trump was asked during a press conference at the G7 Summit in Evian-les-Bains, France, whether he would hold anyone in his administration accountable for the strike. Trump's ambivalent reply left some political analysts and observers stunned.

Former Department of Homeland Security Chief of Staff Miles Taylor warned President Donald Trump's preference for authoritarian leaders over democratic allies has evolved from a personal quirk into consequential national policy.

In his op-ed for The i Paper, Taylor traced the pattern to Trump's 2018 G7 disruption in Canada — where he arrived late, lectured allies, disavowed a joint communiqué, and called for Russia's reinstatement — and argued Trump's mood swings have upended the world order.

A swing-state senator targeted by President Donald Trump was not impressed with the obscene nickname the president had come up with for him.

Trump launched his new attack on Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) following a closely watched Republican primary runoff on Tuesday night that saw his preferred challenger, Rep. Mike Collins, get the Republican nomination to take him on.

Former Republican strategist Steve Schmidt unloaded on Vice President JD Vance in a YouTube video published this week, zeroing in on Vance's interview on "The View" and pinpointing a key moment when one co-host tore a hole in his lies.

"Here's Vance explaining that you don't understand the Epstein files," said Schmidt. In Vance's reckoning, he said, "it was Donald, like a latter-day Magnum P.I. dropping the dime, narcing on [Epstein], as JD Vance says, communicating to the police the crimes of Epstein. You see, it was Trump that brought Epstein to justice like the Lone Ranger."

Fox News host Mark Levin criticized President Donald Trump's Memorandum of Understanding with Iran across a series of posts on X, with his sharpest break coming over the deal's soft treatment of Hezbollah.

"On top of this, we do the unthinkable," wrote Levin, a longtime Trump defender who has broken with the president over the agreement. "We capitulate to Iran's demand to protect Hezbollah."

The U.S. may have narrowly avoided a Constitutional crisis after insiders in the Trump administration temporarily thwarted a plan to suspend habeas corpus, but the risks don't end there, one legal expert warned on Wednesday.

Earlier this week, the New York Times reported that White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and President Donald Trump had cooked up an idea to suspend habeas corpus, the right that requires the government to explain why they have detained someone. The idea was to speed up Trump's deportation operations by arguing that illegal immigration constituted an "invasion" that required the president to enact his emergency powers, according to the report.

The Bulwark's editor Jonathan V. Last argues President Donald Trump's deteriorating relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could inadvertently boost Vice President JD Vance's 2028 presidential ambitions.

A potential U.S. and Israel split could reshape the MAGA coalition, positioning Vance to appeal to both pro-war Republicans frustrated with surrender and America First isolationists skeptical of the Israeli relationship, argues Last. He also writes, Israel will become one of the big cleavages in the post-Trump GOP, with younger base members opposing continued American support while establishment MAGA remains pro-Israel.
