A state legislative district in New Mexico suddenly has no official candidates on the ballot, after a judge disqualified the incumbent Republican's re-election campaign.

According to the Santa Fe New Mexican, "A judge on Wednesday disqualified state Rep. Rebecca Dow’s nominating petitions, ruling screenshots Dow submitted do not comply with the statutorily required language that would 'enable or allow a voter to review and challenge the nominating petitions.'" Doña Ana County 3rd District Judge Manuel Arrieta concluded in his opinion, “For the foregoing reasons, the Plaintiff’s challenge as to Dow’s nominating petitions is upheld and they are disqualified.”

President Donald Trump and his GOP allies in Congress sold their "Big Beautiful Bill," cutting taxes on the rich and slashing funding for Medicaid, in part by arguing that the handful of tax cuts that affect lower-income workers, like the temporary elimination of the tax on tips, would provide relief from inflation for consumers.

But Trump's war with Iran, and the shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz, has already more than wiped out any of those hypothetical savings, economic strategist Henrietta Treyz told MS NOW's Katy Tur on Monday morning.

A recent survey by a Democratic group projects voters in deep red Iowa have cooled on President Donald Trump — and have the state in serious contention for the 2026 midterm elections, according to reporting by Politico.

The Democratic pollster GBAO for the center-left ModSquad, led by Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), found Republicans are barely favored in both the Senate and general ballots for Congress. Currently, Democratic Iowa State Auditor Rob Sand is leading the governor’s race 50 to 42 percent – surpassing GOP Representative Randy Feenstra by eight points.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a glowing report Monday about President Donald Trump’s decision to enact a U.S. Navy blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, which called the decision “brilliant” – and immediately drew widespread ridicule from critics.

“President Trump brilliantly calls Iran’s bluff – with his own Strait of Hormuz blockade,” Leavitt wrote in a social media post on X, sharing the headline from a New York Post report.

President Donald Trump failed to persuade critics with his explanation for a post depicting himself as a Christlike figure healing a bedridden man.

A DoorDash delivery driver bringing President Donald Trump two bags of food from McDonald’s Monday at the White House was pressed by the president on whether she voted for him, drawing nervous laughter and an ambiguous response.

“Well you're really nice. Would you like to do a little news conference with me with these people? These are not the nicest people, they're not nice like you, you know that, right?” Trump told the delivery driver, the two of them standing just outside the White House in front of a group of reporters.

There is a perceptible sea change at the White House as Donald Trump’s fortunes take a turn for the worse, and press secretary Karoline Leavitt is showing visible signs of stress dealing with it.

According to White House correspondent Anushka Asthana writing for The i Paper, the shift is unmistakable. More journalists are cramming into the briefing room daily, sensing that unpredictable chaos could erupt at any moment.

The contrast to six weeks ago is stark, she wrote. In his State of the Union Address, Trump spent a 107-minute speech boasting about falling gas prices — his centerpiece achievement. Iran merited roughly three minutes near the end, almost as an afterthought.

Now the Iran war is all-consuming, along with the dire economic consequences it has unleashed. In a recent Ipsos poll, 66 percent said they wanted the US to end its involvement quickly, even if all goals aren't achieved, compared with just 27 percent who support Trump pushing on.

Trump's mental state is visibly deteriorating under the pressure, according to Asthana.

"There is no question that he has become more erratic in recent weeks; that the frustration and anger he is feeling is bubbling up to the surface and causing him to lash out," she wrote.

Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) called for the hanging of Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) following allegations of sexual misconduct against him.
