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.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who has become a star in the Democratic Party, warned on Sunday that there is a GOP leader who could decide the fate of President Donald Trump's attempts to serve a third term in 2028 during an interview with CNN.
