Friedrich Merz, the leader of the center-right Christian Democratic Union in Germany, wasted no time after his party's victory in national elections warning about the dangers posed by President Donald Trump and X owner Elon Musk.

CNBC is reporting that President Donald Trump and X owner Elon Musk's cuts to the federal workforce may amount to "the biggest job cut in U.S. history" that could also hurt the U.S. economy as a whole.

Depending on different variables, experts who spoke with CNBC estimate that hundreds of thousands of federal workers could soon be unemployed, which would be a significant negative economic shock felt throughout the entire country.

Some liberal critics of the New York Times in the past have accused the paper of "sane-washing" President Donald Trump by using euphemisms that downplay Trump's routine dishonesty and seeming detachment from reality.

However, a piece written by the New York Times' Peter Baker that was published on Sunday used unusually direct words to describe some of Trump's most recent statements as "lies and distortions."

First Lady Melania Trump's jet reportedly left Washington, D.C., for New York City just 24 hours after she returned to the nation's capital after a four-week absence.

CNN reported Sunday that the first lady returned to D.C. for the first time in four weeks on Saturday to attend a dinner and reception with the nation's governors.

Philadelphia Inquirer columnist Will Bunch believes that Tesla owner Elon Musk's attempts to slash and burn the federal government have awakened voters who are now engaging in what he describes as an "American uprising."

In his latest column, Bunch focuses on the protests that are targeting the showrooms at Tesla car dealerships to protest against Musk's illegal efforts to shut down entire government departments without any congressional input or authorization.

X owner Elon Musk recently demanded that all federal employees send him an email outlining five things that they accomplished in the last week -- and he warned them that failure to do so would result in their termination.

However, at least one major department is instructing its workers to not comply with Musk's demand.

The New York Times reports that even some voters sympathetic to Republican efforts to cut government spending are expressing real concerns about X owner Elon Musk.

In a lengthy piece about the backlash Republicans are receiving at town halls, the Times quotes an East Texas veteran named Louis Smith, who recently told Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX) that he was worried that Musk was hindering real efforts to root out federal waste.

A bomb threat that allegedly came from the Proud Boys interrupted a summit of conservatives who oppose President Donald Trump.

Minister and democracy advocate Reed Howard shared an announcement about the threat at Sunday's Principle's First Summit, which was set to include speakers like former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) and former Trump administration official John Bolton.

Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that Michael Taylor voted for Donald Trump in 2020 and 2024. In fact, he voted against him.

Fox News host Mike Emanuel apologized to Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) after he repeated a profane attack on Elon Musk to the senator.

Fox News host Howard Kurtz pressed Jason Miller, a senior adviser to President Donald Trump's transition team, after the commander-in-chief wrongly blamed Ukraine for Russia's invasion.

"President, as you know, has gotten absolutely hammered, not just by liberal journalists, but by National Review and the Wall Street Journal editorial page for blaming Russia for the invasion, blaming Ukraine, excuse me, for the invasion of Russia," Kurtz told Miller in a Sunday interview. "How can you defend that when the Kremlin sent troops and missiles into a sovereign country with the aim of wiping it off the map?"

Setting aside "Minnesota nice," Democratic Sen. Tina Smith told off billionaire Elon Musk after he lashed out at her for calling out his "ultimate d-ck boss move" where he threatened federal workers.

That has now grown into a social media battle.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) demanded the firing of locksmiths at national parks even if they were the only people who could save visitors "locked in restrooms."

Jordan made the remarks on Fox News Sunday after host Shannon Bream noted that government cuts recommended by billionaire Elon Musk were causing "entire offices" to be "wiped out."
