UPDATE: In a statement, the Pentagon said: "An F-16 fired an AIM9x to successfully shoot down an airborne object flying at approximately 20,000 feet altitude in the U.S. airspace over Lake Huron in the state of Michigan. Its path and altitude raised concerns, including that it could be a hazard to civil aviation.... Based on its flight path and data we can reasonably connect this object to the radar signal picked up over Montana, which flew in proximity to sensitive DOD sites."

The Super Bowl will be broadcast this year on Fox, and "The View" co-hosts debated whether President Joe Biden should take part in the traditional pregame interview with the network's conservative news hosts.

Barack Obama sat down with then-Fox News host Bill O'Reilly before the 2014 game and endured questions about controversies about the Obamacare website, Benghazi and the IRS. "The View" panelists were split over whether Biden should put himself in the same position.

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu thinks Donald Trump might be "crazy," but he wouldn't rule out voting for him in 2024.

Panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" cackled at Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) sticking a knife in his biggest would-be Republican rival.

President Joe Biden called out Sen. Rick Scott's plan to wind down Social Security and Medicare during his State of the Union speech, and he has continued to remind supporters of the proposal floated by the Florida Republican -- who mounted an unsuccessful challenge against McConnell for the top seat on the National Republican Senatorial Committee.

Legal experts came together with MSNBC's Joy Reid on Thursday to talk about the significance of special counsel Jack Smith subpoenaing former Vice President Mike Pence.

Civil Rights lawyer Charles Coleman walked through some of the questions that Smith will probably ask. He explained that it became clear that Pence knew that the attempt to overthrow the election by refusing to accept the electoral college votes wasn't legal.

ABC News broke the story on Thursday that Mike Pence had been subpoenaed by special counsel Jack Smith.

Speaking to MSNBC's Ari Melber, former prosecutor Renato Mariotti said that it's not clear that it's necessarily an escalation in the investigation, but he explained that Pence wouldn't be a target in Donald Trump's document scandal or the Jan. 6 scandal.

Nicolle Wallace started her Thursday show addressing the House "weaponization subcommittee" that claims to be investigating what they believe is the Justice Department's war against conservatives.

In the first hearing, two members of the U.S. Senate spoke as did former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who has left the Democratic Party.

Lawyer Jonathan Turley has become one of the Republican Party's favorite lawyers. A self-proclaimed Democrat, he frequently appears in Congress as an expert witness for Republicans.

Such is the case this week in the first hearing from the so-called "weaponization committee," when Turley was there to comment on Twitter and other issues.

In the first hearing by the so-called "weaponization committee" in the U.S. House, former Democrat Tulsi Gabbard was welcomed along with Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA).

Gabbard abandoned the Democratic Party during the 2020 election, but her posture towards Russia drew a lot of concern about her by Republicans in 2017.

"The View" co-hosts cracked up at Rep. Nancy Mace's cracks against fellow Republicans at the annual Washington Press Club Foundation Congressional Dinner.

The South Carolina Republican took swipes at House majority leader Kevin McCarthy and Donald Trump -- in the same joke -- along with Reps. Matt Gaetz, Lauren Boebert and George Santos.

Donald Trump's post-election acting secretary of defense refused to denounce the former president under questioning on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

Christopher Miller, who served as defense secretary from Nov. 9, 2020, until Jan. 20, 2021, filibustered when asked a direct question about the ex-president's role in the Jan. 6 insurrection.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough mocked House Republicans after their hearing on Twitter's content moderation blew up in their faces.

The House Oversight Committee hauled former officials from the social media platform before a hearing to investigate whether conservative voices and causes were unfairly suppressed, but the witnesses instead testified that Twitter changed its own rules to allow Donald Trump to hurl racist abuse at his political opponents.

Former Democratic strategist and infamous southerner James Carville bashed Republicans for their behavior during the State of the Union Address on Tuesday, calling them "white trash."

"Well, you know, I told people I have a PhD in white trashology, you saw real white trash on display," said Carville, speaking to MSNBC's Ari Melber. "Let me say something about congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), she dresses like white trash. She really needs a fashion consultant. I recommend George Santos. He could do a good job of dressing up where she doesn't announce her white trashdom by her own clothes."
