'No excuse for failing': Republicans hammered by WSJ for 'grandstanding' return to work

Despite House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) finally calling Republicans back to work, the editorial board of the conservative Wall Street Journal is still not happy because, by their words and deeds, GOP lawmakers do not appear interested in actually working for Americans.

Republican strategist Angie Wong stunned CNN’s “Table for Five” Saturday after insisting that “real American voters” don’t care about Jeffrey Epstein and his deep connections to powerful figures, including President Donald Trump.

'Rattled' Trump taking new approach to keep his base from turning on him: report

Donald Trump is finding out the hard way that anything he says about teen sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein and the notorious files the DOJ is sitting on, which are at the center of a brutal fight in Congress, is not helping his case with his base so he is being forced to change his normal strategy as he tries to rally them to his defense.

According to a report from MS NOW’s Zeeshan Aleem, the president is now visibly “rattled” that he can't make the controversy go away, so in recent days he has been keeping his distance from reporters because his off-the-cuff answers have been blowing up in his face.

Earlier this week, senior U.S. District judge Mark Wolf (an appointee of former President Ronald Reagan) retired from his post, saying President Donald Trump's "assault on the rule of law was "deeply disturbing" and that he felt "compelled to speak out." And now, he's not sparing the Supreme Court from criticism for enabling Trump.

In a recent interview with Politico legal correspondent Kyle Cheney, Wolf argued that judges need "support" from the institution of the judiciary, given that Trump and his followers are openly calling for the impeachment of federal judges for simply issuing rulings against the administration. He added that such behavior would have been seen as immediately disqualifying during the Watergate era.
