Vice President JD Vance made demonstrably false and misleading claims about manufacturing job growth in speeches on Monday and Tuesday, according to a fact-check of his statements.

On Monday in Missouri, Vance claimed the first quarter of 2026 saw "the biggest growth in manufacturing employment last quarter that we have seen in this country since Donald J. Trump was president the first time," but CNN's Daniel Dale found no evidence to support his statement.

Sarah Kellen, Jeffrey Epstein's longtime personal assistant, told the House Oversight Committee on Thursday that she was repeatedly raped and abused by the convicted sex offender — and handed lawmakers the names of three previously unknown alleged offenders.

Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) announced the development after Kellen's closed-door, transcribed interview, calling it "by far the most substantive and productive interview that we've had. She was very brave."

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) brought a dramatic visual aid to a congressional hearing Wednesday — two jars of brown, murky water — as she pressed a Trump EPA official over the administration's push to fast-track data center construction at the expense of clean drinking water.

During a hearing of the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, Ocasio-Cortez held up the jars in front of Jessica Kramer, the EPA's Assistant Administrator for Water, and demanded answers about the contaminated drinking water in Morgan County, Georgia — ground zero for a massive Meta data center campus.

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner made it crystal clear on Thursday that any Donald Trump ally — or any federal government agent — who attempts to interfere at polling locations in November will quickly be arrested and prosecuted.

He then added that they will be facing state charges putting them beyond the reach of any possible Trump pardon.

President Donald Trump suggested Wednesday he might skip his oldest son's upcoming wedding — and social media had a field day.

Asked by a reporter whether he planned to attend Don Jr.'s Memorial Day weekend nuptials with Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson, Trump was less than enthusiastic.

The Republican Party has reached its nadir by standing by and letting Donald Trump oust incumbent GOP senators during the primaries and put in their place what a leading conservative columnist charitably called “sock puppets” who bring nothing to the table.

In a blunt column on Thursday, longtime Washington Post columnist George Will didn’t hold back, leading off by writing, “This week, the Republican Party has accomplished something difficult: It made itself stupider. It subtracted from its already shallow reservoir of intelligence by moving to purge two fine senators.”

A self-proclaimed "MAHA Mom" unloaded on President Donald Trump for engineering the defeat of Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY).

Zen Honeycutt, executive director of the grassroots group Moms Across America, warned the president on CNN's "The Situation Room" that she and others who are involved in the "Make America Healthy Again" would withhold their electoral support for betraying what they believe he promised during his 2024 campaign.

President Donald Trump said Thursday he might skip his eldest son's upcoming wedding — because the optics are a lose-lose no matter what he does.

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump acknowledged that Donald Trump Jr. and socialite Bettina Anderson are set to wed this Memorial Day weekend in what is expected to be a destination ceremony on a private island in the Bahamas, attended by a small group of friends and family.
