A prominent Republican senator from an agriculture-heavy state is publicly breaking with President Donald Trump over a trade move that she fears could harm American ranchers.

President Donald Trump, who has been looking for ways to both bring costs down and improve economic conditions in Argentina for the electoral prospects of his ally Javier Milei, suggested on Sunday that the U.S. could start buying up Argentine beef to solve both problems. "We would buy some beef from Argentina," Trump said to reporters on Air Force One. "If we do that, that will bring our beef prices down."

The co-hosts of "The View" added their names to the long list of angry Americans who watched President Donald Trump demolish part of the East Wing of the White House that he pledged he wouldn't touch as he built his massive ballroom.

Photos of the heavy machinery tearing down the wall of the White House spread online Monday afternoon, prompting a huge backlash that led federal workers to be told not to take photos of the destruction, according to reports.

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk suggested Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was not smart enough to lead NASA after he threatened to pull a moon landing contract from the billionaire's rocket company.

On Tuesday, Musk responded to a comment on X that criticized Duffy for his dual role as transportation secretary and NASA administrator.

President Donald Trump's officials could be putting themselves in legal peril by moving forward with plans to weaponize the Internal Revenue Service, an expert said Tuesday.

The administration reportedly intends "sweeping changes" at the tax collection agency to pursue criminal inquiries of left-leaning groups, and those moves are being driven by Gary Shapley, an adviser to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Legal expert Ezra Reese published a column for MSNBC explaining why he should know better.

A Donald Trump proposal to bail out struggling Argentina with a $40 billion loan is bumping up against economic reality with banks being asked to provide half of the amount demanding collateral or federal assurances.

According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, financial institutions, including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and Goldman Sachs, are “struggling” to come up with a loan they would feel comfortable with.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) responded to a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter's threat to kill the House Democratic leader by saying that violence was "triggered" by the recent No Kings protests opposing President Donald Trump.

At a Tuesday press conference, a reporter noted that the man accused of threatening to kill House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) had been pardoned by Trump for crimes committed on Jan. 6.

The No Kings protests exploded nationwide on a massive scale last week, with millions of peaceful demonstrators occupying public places to rail against President Donald Trump's attacks on the country's freedoms — and sending Republicans scrambling to make excuses for why it wasn't that big of a deal.

But one of the most revealing aspects of the protest wasn't to be found in the huge crowds in large cities, Ana Maria Cox argued in an interview with The New Republic's Greg Sargent — it was in the town square of New Braunfels, a small city between Austin and San Antonio where Republicans are used to dominating.

A key finding in a new Ipsos/Reuters poll, which delivered bad news to Republicans, led MSNBC host Joe Scarborough to burst out laughing on Tuesday morning.

Speaking with “Morning Joe” regular Molly Jong-Fast, Scarborough cited the poll that shows 50 percent of voters blame Republicans for the government shutdown, with 43 percent blaming Democrats.

Former Donald Trump administration official Miles Taylor warned his ex-boss Tuesday that his “loose lips” and frequent remarks about his political advisors will likely jeopardize his administration’s attempts to prosecute them.

Trump’s Justice Department has recently indicted former FBI Director James Comey, New York Attorney General Letitia James, former National Security Adviser John Bolton, and are now reportedly investigating Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis, all of whom Trump has publicly smeared, and on repeated occasions.

A Minnesota judge ordered a woman to read a book after conviction for casting a fraudulent vote for Donald Trump in last year's election.

Danielle Christine Miller, 51, of Nashwauk, was charged with three felonies after local officials flagged a pair of absentee ballots for fraud and found one of those had been cast on behalf of her late mother. She pleaded guilty last week to intentionally making or signing a false certificate, reported the Associated Press.

President Donald Trump issued a new ultimatum to Hamas as the ceasefire his administration brokered with Israel threatens to collapse after just days.

The truce agreement was presented as the first stage in a peace plan that calls for Hamas to disarm and Gaza to be handed over to a transitional government, and Trump threatened Tuesday morning to deploy allied troops to use "heavy force" to enforce those demands.
