President Donald Trump proclaimed on Wednesday that he executed a "secret mission" in the Strait of Hormuz that saw 100 million barrels of oil make safe passage through the crucial shipping artery — but ranking House Intelligence Committee member Rep.

Following the clip, anchor Erin Burnett appeared genuinely confused about exactly what Trump was trying to say.

President Donald Trump's latest late-night social media ranting spree astounded one political analyst because of what it revealed about the president's personality.

Late last night, Trump took to Truth Social to lambaste people who recently criticized him, like Joe Scarborough of MS NOW's "Morning Joe" and ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith, as well as the Iranian army, for their various offenses. Trump described Smith as a "low-IQ" individual, a moniker that the president has often given to people of color, and lashed out at Scarborough for his show's ratings. Trump also claimed that Iran's army was "a complete and total mess" despite the ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

President Donald Trump has put himself in a "weak" position in his war against Iran, the conservative Wall Street Journal editorial board wrote in an analysis published on Wednesday.

"For nine weeks, the cease-fire has let Iran dictate events in the Gulf," wrote the board. The way things have progressed, they argued, Iran itself "gets to start each 'skirmish' — shooting at U.S. forces, U.S. allies, or commercial ships — and then decide when the exchange ends," all while attacking Israel through its Hezbollah proxies in Lebanon and using the conflict there as "an excuse to stall talks with the U.S."

Doctors are demanding that the American Medical Association step up and take a true offensive posture against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

An election expert exposed the "great irony" behind Speaker Mike Johnson's claims that the recent California primary elections were "rigged" in a new podcast interview.

Stephen Richer, a fellow at the Cato Institute, told Adam Klasfeld of All Rise News on Wednesday that Johnson's claim that election fraud exists "so far upstream that it's hard to prove" shows how illogical the GOP's argument about election fraud is. Several of the party's top officials, including President Donald Trump himself, have said Republican candidate Spencer Pratt was cheated in the election because Democratic candidate Nithya Raman leapfrogged Spencer late in the race due to mail-in ballots. However, the officials have not provided any evidence of fraud.

The Trump administration's Postal Service has proposed rules to restrict the delivery of mail-in ballots from states that do not comply with an executive order the president signed last week, which revamps mail-in ballot regulations. Several state Attorneys General have sued the Trump administration in response, and the court case remains ongoing.

The Trump administration's legal arguments for why federal courts should not interfere in the controversial UFC fight set to take place on the White House lawn were derided as ridiculous by former White House ethics lawyer Norm Eisen on MS NOW's "Deadline: White House" Wednesday.

The match, part of Trump's series of events ostensibly celebrating America's 250th anniversary, has come under fire as an event that Trump has a personal financial stake in and stands to profit massively from. Veterans in Washington, D.C. are currently suing to stop it.
