Where once it was the price of eggs, now it is the high cost of beef that is bedeviling President Donald Trump's administration, which came into office boasting it would drive down food prices.

According to a report from Politico’s Myah Ward and Grace Yarrow, the White House is dealing with fallout not just from consumers, but also “farm-state Republicans and agriculture industry groups” who are objecting to Trump's marketplace meddling involving beef from Argentina.

President Donald Trump blamed his past feud with Tesla CEO Elon Musk on the billionaire having a “stupid moment in his life," calling it a “bad moment” for the Trump ally that had once poured hundreds of millions of dollars into his 2024 campaign.

The two engaged in a messy public spat that began with Musk’s criticism of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in May, stepping down from his role as a special government employee just days later. The feud ramped up in July after Musk accused Trump of being in the files related to Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted child sex abuser who died in 2019 awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges.

A senior U.S. official admitted that many of the sea vessels targeted by the Trump administration suspected of drug trafficking did not have the motor capacity or necessary gasoline to reach the United States, according to a report from Drop Site News.

The Trump administration has ramped up hostilities with Venezuela in recent weeks, deploying an aircraft carrier strike group to the Caribbean last week, and destroying at least 10 suspected drug-carrying sea vessels since September, killing at least 43 people that the administration has labeled as “narco-terrorists.”

President Donald Trump’s increasingly frantic rhetoric about allowing him to impose tariffs on a whim has turned into a bid for the Supreme Court to swiftly rule in his favor -- which received pushback on MSNBC on Monday morning.

Over a week ago, the president warned, “I will tell you that’s one of the most important cases in the history of our country because if we don’t win that case, we will be a weakened, troubled, financial mess for many, many years to come.”

President Donald Trump told reporters early Monday morning that he would “love to” run for president in 2028, a remark that comes shortly after a key ally revealed that there was already a “plan” in place to circumvent the constitutional amendment that prohibits presidents from serving more than two terms in the White House.

“I would love to do it – I have the best numbers ever!” Trump told reporters Monday while aboard Air Force One on whether he was considering a third run for office, Politico reported. “Am I not ruling it out? You’ll have to tell me.”

Republican officials in California are expressing dismay with President Donald Trump for staying out of the fight with Gov. Gavin Newsom over an effort to redistrict the state that could cost Republicans multiple seats in the House.

According to a report from Politico, California Republicans are choosing their words carefully when complaining about the president turning his back on their efforts to derail Proposition 50, with Politico’s Alex Gangitano writing “the White House has been backing away from campaigning against Democrats’ efforts to redraw California’s House map, appearing largely resigned to the idea it will pass given Democrats’ strong polling advantage.”

President Donald Trump said he underwent an MRI scan during his recent checkup at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

The 79-year-old president went to the hospital Oct. 10 for his second exam since returning to the White House in January, and he told reporters Monday morning aboard Air Force One that doctors had offered them a “very conclusive” report of the exam that had previously been unknown, reported CNN.

President Donald Trump floated the idea of renaming the Kennedy Center after himself Monday in just the latest example of the president’s infatuation with reshaping the historic cultural center in Washington, D.C., in his own image.

“The new TRUMP KENNEDY, whoops, I mean, KENNEDY CENTER, columns, beautifully painted in a luxuriant white enamel color, replacing the fake looking gold paint that was there for years,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's latest move to restrict press access to the Pentagon shows he seems to be "growing even more paranoid," and that could cause him to make "all kinds of mistakes," according to two analysts.

Eric Edelman and Eliot A. Cohen, co-hosts of the "Shield of the Republic" podcast, discussed Hegseth's new press rules, including one requiring reporters to publish only information approved for release by the Department of Defense. The discussion comes at a time when major news outlets like the Associated Press, New York Times, and Washington Post no longer have press access at the Pentagon, but right-wing outlets like Alex Jones' InfoWars do.

No sooner had President Donald Trump touched down in Japan as part of his Asia tour, he was frantically posting on his Truth Social website that his fans should not believe ads illustrating his declining popularity.

As of late, the president has been furious about ads that showing him in a bad light, including one from Canada featuring an older clip of former President Ronald Reagan talking down using tariffs — a favorite weapon in Trump’s trade war.

A pair of political analysts were stunned on Sunday after they saw President Donald Trump's response to an advertisement created by the Canadian government about his signature tariff policies.

The Canadian government's ad features video of former President Ronald Reagan arguing against tariffs in a speech, saying "American jobs and growth are at stake. In response, Trump issued a threatening statement increasing tariffs on Canadian goods and cut off trade negotiations with the country, according to reports. The Canadian government has since agreed to pull the ad.

Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales bashed President Donald Trump's attacks on the American press and the truth during an interview with Times Radio on Sunday.

Wales, who co-founded Wikipedia in 2001 with entrepreneur Larry Sanger, said during the interview that Trump's attacks are reminiscent of other strongmen across the globe. He added that there seems to be a "real undermining" of truth by people like Elon Musk, who have attacked Wikipedia for being a left-wing activist organization.
