Gas prices are shooting up due to President Donald Trump's war with Iran, and CNN's Harry Enten said that's exacerbating the Republican Party's problems with affordability.

The head of the National Republican Congressional Committee confessed that the GOP is failing when it comes to the economy — but thinks it's more about messaging than policies.

Speaking to CNN's Manu Raju, Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) said, “I think there's the reality and there's the messaging, and both need to be moving in the right direction for the American people. You know, people are hurting.”

President Donald Trump called the demand for documents around the Jeffrey Epstein investigation nothing more than a "Democrat hoax" when speaking from the Oval Office on Wednesday.

For the past week, Newsom's staff has adopted the Trump style of social media, with all-caps posts, finger-pointing, nicknames, and more. Supporters have responded to it with their own trolling, posting scores of AI images of Newsom as a superhero and even in bed with first lady Melania Trump.

President Donald Trump boasted that he had extracted a $600 billion "gift" from the European Union after threatening to impose 35-percent tariffs, but an economic analyst cast doubt on whether that money would ever be paid.

President Donald Trump scrambled to defend himself after firing Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) administrator Erika McEntarfer over a poor jobs report.

President Donald Trump lobbed criminal allegations at Barack Obama, Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and other political opponents during an Oval Office meeting with Philippines president Bongbong Marcos.

The U.S. president was asked about his Department of Justice seeking a meeting with Jeffrey Epstein's co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell as House speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) sends lawmakers home to avoid action on the growing scandal, and Trump instead told reporters they should be talking about his administration's criminal claims against Obama and others.

A disgraced Democratic politician says he was as surprised as anyone by his recent pardon by president Donald Trump.
