President Donald Trump finished a press conference on Tuesday with an angry rant against Somali-American Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), as well as the Somali community in general.

The tirade began as a complaint against Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), who was on the opposing presidential ticket as former Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate in last year's election. The Minneapolis-St. Paul area, which Omar represents, has one of America's largest Somali diasporas.

CNN's Daniel Dale provided one of his signature fact checks to President Donald Trump's blizzard of "lies" during his latest cabinet meeting.

The president insisted "affordability" was a meaningless word made up by Democrats to make him look bad and offered an unbidden "soliloquy" about cognitive tests he recently took, and the 79-year-old Trump then made a series of boasts about the economy that Dale told "Inside Politics" were mathematically impossible.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth insisted that he wasn't in the room when the U.S. military ordered a second strike that killed the survivors from an alleged drug boat off the coast of Venezuela, which some lawmakers have warned could be a war crime.

During a White House cabinet meeting on Tuesday, a reporter noted that President Donald Trump had previously said that there had not been a second strike on the survivors of the targeted boat.

Vaccine advisers appointed by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are on the verge of ending the practice of vaccinating all newborns against hepatitis B, which would represent a betrayal of a key Republican senator.

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA), who expressed skepticism about Kennedy's nomination until receiving assurances about his stance on vaccines, has said he's "very concerned" about possible changes to the hepatitis B vaccine schedule for infants.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was dragged Tuesday over appearing at a cabinet meeting with a misspelled name placard, a misspelling that some critics alleged to be an intentional “wink at Nazis.”

Hegseth was seated next to President Donald Trump during Tuesday’s cabinet meeting in the White House, although his name placard stood out from those of other top officials attending the meeting. Hegseth’s name was spelled correctly, but his title – “secretary of war” – included an extra “s” in the word “secretary.”

A Tennessee special election that polls show could potentially flip a GOP stronghold has Republicans scrambling, including Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), who took to Fox News on Tuesday to beg GOP voters to get out the vote.

"We've already got people leaving, talks of others leaving... this is the proverbial canary in the cave!” Burchett said, speaking with Fox News’ Bill Hemmer. “If Matt Van Epps – a qualified candidate [in] a district that [President Donald] Trump won by over 15 points – can't carry this thing, we're in trouble. Republicans are asleep at the switch!”

President Donald Trump appeared to struggle to fight off sleep during a Cabinet meeting as questions continue to swirl about his age and mental fitness.

The president boasted without prompting Tuesday about passing a "very hard" cognitive test at Walter Reed Hospital after telling reporters Sunday night aboard that he wasn't sure what part of his body doctors examined with magnetic resonance imaging before blurting out "it wasn’t the brain."

A recording of a supporter of Donald Trump hoping he can watch a Democratic lawmaker get his brains “blown out” left MS NOW host Ana Cabrera searching for words on Tuesday morning.

Appearing on the network to discuss war crime allegations made against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO), a veteran who served as a captain in the 82nd Airborne Division, was asked about threats he has received since urging military members to refuse to follow illegal orders.
