House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) laid down a warning on Tuesday: when Democrats retake control of the House of Representatives, there will be consequences for Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL).

Fine, a far-right lawmaker who gained office in a special election last year, has made a series of virulently racist and Islamophobic comments and posts, most recently a statement that “If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one. We will not be shamed into being conquered like the Europeans” — which revolted even some MAGA commentators, including Megyn Kelly.

Corporate executives are being warned of a "tsunami" of potential high-profile investigations related to Donald Trump and his administration, should Democrats gain House control following the November midterms.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) maintains a narrow majority threatened by Republican retirements and Trump's declining popularity. If Democrats assume House control, they would gain the chairmanships and majority control of the powerful Oversight and Judiciary Committees.

President Donald Trump announced a new agreement with Japan on his Truth Social platform Tuesday — and attributed it all to his controversial tariff policies.

"Our MASSIVE Trade Deal with Japan has just launched!" wrote Trump. "Japan is now officially, and financially, moving forward with the FIRST set of Investments under its $550 BILLION Dollar Commitment to invest in the United States of America — part of our Historic Trade Deal to REVITALIZE the American Industrial Base, create HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of GREAT American Jobs, and strengthen our National and Economic Security like never before."

News broke this week that Juan Nicolás, the two-month-old detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the detention center in Dilley, Texas, was hospitalized over an episode of bronchitis that at one point rendered him "unresponsive."

Dilley has become infamous as a facility that warehouses large numbers of children, and is a focal point of anti-deportation protests in Texas.

President Donald Trump's pardon process doesn't make sense to many observers, including some inside the White House.

Nearly three dozen sources spoke to NOTUS, including lawyers and lobbyists and people inside the White House, about what they described as an ever-changing process that depended on access to the president and creating an appealing story about those seeking pardons.

President Donald Trump's Federal Communications Commission began its long-threatened crackdown on political late-night talk show interviews by pressuring CBS to pull an already-filmed interview on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" with Texas U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico.

But that move appears to have blown up in their faces — and some political observers are saying this could be a "boon" for Talarico's campaign.

President Donald Trump posted nearly a dozen photos of himself with the late civil rights icon Jesse Jackson in quick succession Tuesday, hours after complaining about being called “racist” – a label he appeared to be attempting to rebut by highlighting his past association with the Black civil rights leader.

Jackson died Tuesday at 84, prompting an outpour of condolences to his family from political figures across the political spectrum, including Trump. The president called Jackson a “good guy” who “truly loved people” in a social media post shortly after his passing.

Officials in Fulton County, Georgia, accused the Department of Justice of misleading a judge to obtain a search warrant last month for 2020 election ballots.

Local officials accused President Donald Trump's DOJ of making “serious” omissions in the application filed by the FBI that fails to allege probable cause that a crime had been committed, reported CNN, but instead “does nothing more than describe the types of human errors that its own sources confirm occur in almost every election — without any intentional wrongdoing whatsoever.”
