House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) blamed "unhinged rhetoric" for Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) being run off the road Thursday morning while he was in Washington, D.C.

"What happened to Max this morning is yet another outrageous example of unhinged rhetoric inspiring unstable people to threaten and attack elected officials who are serving their communities," Johnson posted on X. "We must turn down the temperature in this country."

What was supposed to be a routine White House visit for Italian soccer club Juventus turned into an uncomfortable political spectacle Wednesday, with Donald Trump trapping professional athletes in the Oval Office while he ranted about Iran missile strikes and transgender women in sports.

U.S. Men's National Team player Tim Weah didn't mince words about the bizarre experience: "I was caught by surprise, honestly. It was a bit weird. When he started talking about the politics with Iran and everything, it's kind of like, I just want to play football, man!"

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth just "threw Jesus under the bus," according to MSNBC's Morning Joe Thursday.

Joe Scarborough, a former Republican lawmaker with experience around White House appointees, raised his concern early on in the show. While the hosts were introducing the topics of the day, Scarborough asks, "Did you see he threw Jesus under the bus?" while he was being grilled by lawmakers.

President Donald Trump is relying on a quieter group of experienced aides rather than his more high-profile Cabinet picks as he weighs whether to join Israel’s military campaign against Iran, according to a Washington Post report.

Despite being tapped for top national security posts, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Trump’s director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, have found themselves outside of Trump's inner circle as he weighs what the Post called “perhaps the most momentous” decision of his presidency.

Most Senate Democrats refused to participate in a hearing about former President Joe Biden's mental fitness on Wednesday.

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT) were the only senators who attended, albeit briefly, the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. Durbin said the hearing was an example of Republicans' refusal to address "numerous critical challenges" the nation faces.

President Donald Trump claimed Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell was resisting his call to lower interest rates for personal reasons.

U.S. stocks opened flat Wednesday ahead of the central bank's rate decision announcement Wednesday afternoon, and the president suggested during a press event on the White House lawn that Powell would not cut rates because he has a personal grudge against him.
