President Trump made accusations against six Supreme Court justices who ruled against his tariff policies, prompting "Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough to have producers cut the clip on Monday morning. During a Friday White House press conference, Trump expressed shame at justices lacking "courage to do what's right for our country." Trump subsequently accused the justices of being under foreign influence. Scarborough responded with skepticism, questioning whether Trump's accusation represented projection or a confession. He characterized Trump's rant as "the most Orwellian thing" and noted the Wall Street Journal called it the low point of his presidency. Scarborough emphasized that Trump owes the Supreme Court and individual justices an apology for smearing them. He suggested Trump's behavior demonstrated a fundamental misunderstanding of judicial independence and institutional integrity.

Rep. James Comer (R-KY), the chair of the House Oversight Committee, promised "to do whatever the president wants" after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Donald Trump illegally imposed tariffs around the world.

During a Tuesday interview ahead of Trump's State of the Union address, Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo told Comer — whose role is to hold government accountable — that countries were backing away from negotiated trade deals after the tariffs were found to be illegal.

A growing group of Republicans who’ve labeled themselves as a “shadow RNC” are working to reclaim their party from President Donald Trump and his “MAGA takeover” of the GOP, The Hill reported on Tuesday.

“We’re concerned about the authoritarian takeover of our country by a madman who sees himself as a king,” said Michael Steele, the former chair of the Republican National Committee, speaking at the group’s conference in Maryland on Friday.

The producer of the Melania Trump documentary insists some big-name music "heroes" wanted their songs used in the film — but he won't share their names.

Marc Beckman spoke at length with Variety about music licensing for the Amazon MGM film he produced, and he expressed disappointment that Radiohead guitarist Johnny Greenwood wanted the music he composed for director Paul Thomas Anderson's 2017 film "Phantom Thread" removed to avoid association with President Donald Trump.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt pivoted to attacking the media Tuesday after being confronted with two statements put out by the Trump administration that appear to stand at complete odds with each other.

Last June, the Trump administration carried out “Operation Midnight Hammer,” a covert attack on three Iranian nuclear facilities that the president proudly boasted had successfully “obliterated” Tehran’s nuclear program. And yet, Trump administration special envoy Steve Witkoff told Fox News on Saturday that Iran was “probably a week away from having industrial-grade bomb-making material.”

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, a Trump appointee, occupies a unique position following a 6-3 decision against the president on tariffs, according to Harvard Law School professor Richard J. Lazarus.

Lazarus argued in a Washington Post column that Kavanaugh should use his current favor with Trump to defend the Court's institutional integrity after the president attacked his colleagues.

President Donald Trump was given a dressing-down by the conservative Wall Street Journal editorial board for persisting with his tariffs policy after the U.S. Supreme Court struck them down.

The court ruled 6-3 last week that Trump overstepped his authority by imposing tariffs without congressional approval. He has raged against the decision for days and threatened to implement the levies using alternative legal means.

Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) faces mounting calls to resign from fellow Republicans following allegations of an affair with Regina Santos-Áviles, who ran his congressional office in Uvalde and died after setting herself on fire last year. Newly revealed text messages show Gonzales pressured Santos-Aviles to send him "sexy pics," making her uncomfortable. Both were married. Primary challenger Brandon Herrera called Gonzales a "sexual predator" who abused his power and stated this was not an isolated case. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) posted "RESIGN" and urged redirecting campaign funds to Herrera. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) condemned the behavior as disgraceful. House Speaker Mike Johnson took a cautious approach, calling for investigations to conclude before judgment, though suggesting Gonzales' position would be untenable if allegations were proven true.

Of all the legal problems Donald Trump faced, from accusations of sexual assault to business fraud, he most feared the Florida stolen government documents investigation by special counsel Jack Smith that ended up being dropped when he won re-election.

That is according to “Morning Joe” co-host Jonathan Lemire, who reported on the president’s terror at being convicted during a discussion on U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon's Monday ruling that permanently blocked the Justice Department from releasing Smith’s final report.

President Donald Trump's mass deportation agenda is decimating the Rio Grande Valley economy, threatening to flip Republican gains in the region back to Democratic control just a year after the president's historic win in a traditionally blue area, according to a report.

Construction, retail, real estate, and hospitality sectors are collapsing as Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids disrupt the undocumented workforce that anchors the regional economy. Ronnie Cavazos, president of the South Texas Builders Association, warned bluntly: "This will put us out of business if it continues," reported NBC News.

As Donald Trump prepares to give his State of the Union speech, he will do it under a cloud of record-low approval numbers that he seemingly refuses to acknowledge — and that has Republicans living in fear.

But the president doesn’t care, reported Axios's founder Jim VandeHei on MS NOW just hours before the national address.
