President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social account on Wednesday evening to brag about his freshly passed "big, beautiful bill," including a $50 billion bailout for rural hospitals — which was only necessary because the bill cuts around $1 trillion from Medicaid.

"Americans know we need a better Healthcare System to properly serve our Great Communities that were abandoned by the Radical Left Democrats," wrote Trump. "That is why Republicans included $50 Billion Dollars in the 'ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL' — to strengthen our most vulnerable Hospitals, including those in Rural areas. BUT, EVERY DEMOCRAT VOTED AGAINST THIS FUNDING!"

A prominent prosecutor in the Justice Department who investigated both Jeffrey Epstein and Sean "Diddy" Combs for sex trafficking was fired on Wednesday, Politico reported.

The reason why Maurene Comey was fired was not immediately clear, but it comes as President Donald Trump seeks to distance himself from the Epstein files scandal that has rocked his administration for the last week. Both Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi have faced bipartisan criticism for their handling of the case.

Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) tore into Republican colleagues on MSNBC for projecting concern about rural hospital closures, immediately after passing a bill for hundreds of billions in Medicaid cuts that put their funding at risk in the first place.

This comes as Markey introduces legislation to further universal health care, messaging legislation which is considered unlikely to pass in a Republican-controlled Congress.

A Justice Department prosecutor who played an outsized role in the Jeffrey Epstein case was ousted Wednesday, according to a report.

Maurene Comey, who is the daughter of former FBI director James Comey — himself a perceived foe of President Donald Trump — was fired from the Manhattan U.S. attorney’s office, two people familiar with the matter told Politico. The reasoning behind her termination wasn't immediately known.

President Donald Trump appears to be losing support from his MAGA base, and one analyst thinks the Jeffrey Epstein case exposed the real reason why.

Dan Pfeiffer, the former senior advisor on communications and strategy to Barack Obama, said on a recent episode of "Pod Save America" that it appears Trump no longer understands his base. During his first term, the president appeared to be intimately familiar with the kinds of stories that MAGA responds to, whether they were conspiracy theories or pure fiction.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) is leading the charge to warn President Donald Trump that his threats against Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, which have brewed for weeks, would be a disaster, CNN's Phil Mattingly reported on Wednesday.

"Turning back to what Trump said today, that it's highly unlikely that he will fire Powell. That's a direct contrast with what you're reporting," said anchor Jake Tapper.

President Donald Trump's wealthiest supporter, Elon Musk, unleashed a posting spree on X about the files around the federal investigation into sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

It was only a month ago that Musk had his falling out with Trump, where he alleged that the president is in the files.

CNN host Jake Tapper was shocked at President Donald Trump's new claims regarding Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.

On Wednesday, Trump told reporters that Powell is a "terrible Fed chair" and that he is "surprised [Powell] was appointed." Those comments didn't sit well with Tapper, who responded to them on his daily show, "The Lead With Jake Tapper."

U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem has a blunt message for undocumented farmworkers: “Go home.” She’s urging farmers to assist in the process — by helping those workers “self-deport.”

“I would encourage everybody,” Secretary Noem said on Wednesday, “if people are here in this country illegally, go home.”

President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that he's been at work trying to get high fructose corn syrup out of Coca-Cola-branded drinks. Instead, Trump claimed he convinced the company to move to cane sugar instead.

The Cleveland Clinic and other reputable sources have warned that excess intake of high fructose corn syrup and sugar should be avoided. Consuming high fructose corn syrup spurs a reaction that encourages the liver to create more fat, an article on the Clinic's website said.

Fox News personality Rachel Campos-Duffy rejected the notion that America is a “nation of immigrants” Wednesday in a rant aimed at opponents to President Donald Trump’s deportation policy, proclaiming the country to, in actuality, be a “nation of settlers.”

“This is the question about why the left continues to side with illegals over Americans who have been so obviously hurt by this open border illegal immigration problem that was just compounded by Joe Biden: the real question is about who we are as Americans,” Campos-Duffy said, speaking on "The Will Cain Show."
