Right-wing radio host Eric Metaxas told thousands gathered on the National Mall on Sunday that the Almighty spent two centuries waiting to deliver one Donald Trump so the president could finally build his $400 million ballroom.

"Yes, it's hard to believe that it would take two centuries for the Lord to raise up a great man to bring that ballroom finally to stand where it needs to stand," Metaxas said at the taxpayer-backed "Rededicate 250" prayer event. "It's extraordinary. We only had to wait 200 years."

The Republican Party seems to be winning the redistricting wars as the 2026 midterm elections approach, but a legal expert on Sunday compared the GOP's efforts to an own goal that will likely haunt them going forward.

So far, the Republicans have gained about seven seats in Congress through mid-cycle redistricting as states like Texas, Louisiana, and Tennessee have redrawn their maps. The Center for Politics at the University of Virginia estimates the party could gain as many as 10 total seats, even as Democrats attempt to counter the GOP's moves with new maps of their own.

A prominent Evangelical reverend stunned political analysts and observers on Sunday with his speech during President Donald Trump's "Rededicate 250" prayer event at the National Mall.

The Rev. Franklin Graham, the son of the late preacher Billy Graham, spoke via a pre-recorded video at the prayer event, describing America as a country that has become "morally rotten" and "completely sick with sin." He mentioned issues like "transgenderism" and "opening women's locker rooms to men" as a couple of examples.

Much has been written about President Donald Trump’s tendency to fudge the truth, with The Washington Post having tracked more than 30,000 individual false or misleading claims made by the president during his first term – but nearly 16 months into his second term, Americans by the millions are largely disregarding Trump’s words entirely, one columnist argued on Sunday.

“Trump’s credibility gap endangers our national security,” wrote attorney, columnist and former television host Alan Scott Bolden in an op-ed published Sunday in The Hill.

Anthony Scaramucci, the former White House communications director turned vocal Trump critic, is offering a window into what he says is President Donald Trump's secret psychological weakness — and it's not what most of the commander-in-chief's critics think.

In a lengthy post on X published Saturday, "The Mooch" argued that observers who can't fathom how Trump rose to the presidency are missing one key thing: they've never been in a room with him.

A U.S. official’s statement to Axios published on Sunday has a number of journalists bracing for impact, several of whom accused the Trump administration of “misleading” the American public in a “deplorable” attempt to “justify” a U.S. invasion of a sovereign nation.

Axios’ report claims that Cuban leaders had recently discussed plans to “attack” the United States and its assets abroad using military drones, with Axios’ Marc Caputo citing an anonymous U.S. official as the source of the claim.

Just ahead of making his appearance at a national prayer event at the nation’s capital, President Donald Trump issued yet another genocidal threat against Iran on Sunday, warning the Middle East nation that if its leaders didn’t “get moving fast” on agreeing to a deal, there would soon be nothing “left of them.”

“For Iran, the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

Iconic Democratic strategist James Carville gave President Donald Trump a backhanded compliment on Sunday in response to the president’s controversial remarks last week – remarks, he contended, that were perhaps the “greatest” presidential gaffe in U.S. history.

Standing on the White House lawn last Tuesday, Trump admitted that, when it came to decisions related to his unpopular war against Iran, he did not take Americans’ financial situations into account.

A stunningly brazen admission from President Donald Trump last week that sent shockwaves across the nation may very well end up being the catalyst that sinks the Republican Party in the impending midterm elections come November, one GOP strategist warned on Sunday.

That admission, which Trump made in the span of five seconds when speaking with reporters on the White House lawn last Tuesday, was that he didn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation” as it relates to his ongoing and deeply unpopular war against Iran. When asked for clarification on his remarks on Friday, Trump doubled down on his statement, calling it “perfect,” and noting that he’d “make it again.”

President Donald Trump is expected to be joined by several of his top officials and allies Sunday in Washington, D.C. for Rededicate 250, a national prayer event hosted on the National Mall, and one Christian group is working to erect a “15-foot-tall” surprise for the president in protest.

Organized by Freedom250, a Trump-aligned group that has received millions of taxpayer dollars, the event has been decried by some critics as promoting Christian nationalism. The government watchdog group Public Citizen, for instance, condemned the event as being “less like a traditional religious event and more like a program for the Church of Trump.”

President Donald Trump has poured considerable political capital into ousting Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), who infamously bucked the president by leading the charge to force the release of the administration's files on Jeffrey Epstein – a move one Trump voter recently condemned as a "slap in the face.”

“We love our congressman, and the fact that the president is trying to pick our next congressman for us is kind of a slap in the face to Kentuckians,” said John Detherage, a 62-year old Kentucky resident who voted for Trump, speaking with The Wall Street Journal in its report Sunday.

With the Trump administration having failed to achieve its stated objectives in its war against Iran, President Donald Trump has increasingly set his sights on a new objective: one he appears ready to authorize a “dangerous mission” to achieve at any moment, but also one that several high-ranking Trump officials think is a “resoundingly terrible idea,” Zeteo reported Saturday.

Trump explicitly called for regime change just moments after first authorizing strikes on Iran in late February, and while the president has claimed to have accomplished that goal, experts have largely dismissed the president’s assertion. Now, Trump appears ready to greenlight an operation to achieve another goal: seizing Iran’s supply of enriched uranium.
