A Republican lawmaker has been boasting about delivering $1.4 million to a children’s hospital despite having voted against the bill that secured the funding.

In a press release earlier this month, Rep. Maria Salazar (R-FL) said the doctors and staff "at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital are nothing short of miracle workers, and I am proud to support their work in Congress."

Judge Aileen Cannon ruled against Donald Trump's request to have access to classified filings in the documents case Wednesday.

The content of the classified documents found at Mar-a-Lago have complicated special counsel Jack Smith's federal court case against Trump as both sides navigate the Classified Information Procedures Act that protects them.

Moments after Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced he would relinquish his position as leader of the Senate Republicans, a new search term began to trend on X: "Good riddance."

This might be because the tenure of McConnell, 82, was dominated by two leading passions that the New Republic argued Wednesday "both sucked for America."

Former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) thinks the reason Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced the end of his reign is part of a strategy to deal with Donald Trump.

It was reported Tuesday that McConnell was in talks with Trump and his campaign about supporting the former president's 2024 campaign efforts. But, within 48 hours, McConnell was announcing he would retire from the leadership role after the election.

Outside of the hearing room where Hunter Biden was answering questions to the House Oversight and Reform and Judiciary Committees, Democrats said that the Republicans' impeachment inquiry for Joe Biden had passed away.

Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) stood with other Democrats on the committee, explaining that as a Jewish American, "I will say Mourner’s Kaddish" once the hearing ended.

A young man's future could be forever changed after felony charges were levied against him in the state of Colorado on Tuesday evening.

Former President Donald Trump Wednesday asked the court to accept a $100 million bond instead of the demanded $450 million Judge Arthur Engoron ruled he's liable for in fraud damages, according to court records and legal experts.

Trump filed an emergency application to a New York appeals court arguing it was not necessary for him to pay the full amount because Engoron's ruling was faulty and the Trump Organization is watched by a court-appointed monitor, MSNBC legal analyst Lisa Rubin noted.

A judge has agreed to let former Donald Trump adviser Steve Bannon stay out of jail while he appeals his contempt of Congress conviction.

Bannon was convicted in July 2022 after refusing to speak to the House Select Committee investigating the 2020 election overthrow attempts and Jan. 6 attack in 2021. Bannon was no longer employed at the White House when he was called.

Texas billionaire hedge funder Kyle Bass took to the internet to complain about paying $14 for orange juice while having a room-service breakfast in a five-star hotel in New York City.

It didn't go down well.

Hunter Biden arrived on Capitol Hill Wednesday to answer questions about whether his father benefited financially from his international business — just days after the GOP's top witness was arrested and charged with lying to the FBI about the investigation.

The development involving ex-FBI informant Alexander Smirnov is considered by some as the point the case against the president collapsed, as Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) put it.

Former President Donald Trump literally phoned in his victory speech after winning the Michigan primary, then took to Truth Social to complain his more-than-$450 million fraud judgment has companies fleeing New York like wounded birds.

Which companies, or how exactly wounded birds flee, remains unclear.

A heckler at the main Michigan primary watch party for former President Donald Trump was shut down by a Republican lawmaker who quickly delivered this hot take: "Jan. 6th was bad."

Former Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI), now running for the U.S. Senate, issued this decree during a Trump watch party in Grand Rapids, Michigan on election night Tuesday, reports NBC.

Former prosecutor Barbara McQuade appeared on "The Last Word" after the Michigan primary Tuesday night to explain how, as Lawrence O'Donnell put it, former President Donald Trump "brainwashed those voters."

McQuade is also the author of the newly released book "Attack from Within: How Disinformation Is Sabotaging America," which details how Trump's 2020 election fraud lies have penetrated Ameica's political narrative.
