Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) delivered a scathing assessment of Donald Trump's Iran ceasefire Sunday, welcoming the end of the war while warning that the deal represents a humiliating capitulation to Tehran that leaves the United States weaker than when the conflict began.

"If this deal with Iran is real, I will welcome it because every day this insane war goes on, America gets weaker," Murphy wrote in a detailed thread on X. "But make no mistake: these are Iran's terms. Our nation emerges humiliated."

Donald Trump has been saying nice things about New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani — and Republicans are furious about it.

According to a New York Times report on GOP fears ahead of the midterms, Trump has repeatedly praised Mamdani warmly, actively undercutting his own party's efforts to use the democratic socialist mayor as a political boogeyman heading into November.

Shaun Byrnes did two tours in Vietnam. He had hoped to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery when his time came. Now he's not so sure — and Donald Trump is the reason why.

Byrnes, 83, is one of several Vietnam veterans who have filed suit to stop construction of a 250-foot triumphal arch that Trump wants to build between Arlington National Cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial. The structure, which resembles Paris's Arc de Triomphe and has been dubbed the "Arc de Trump," would stand more than double the height of the Lincoln Memorial.

Donald Trump launched a sprawling early-morning attack on Republican critics of his Iran deal Sunday, singling out three GOP lawmakers by name and calling them losers, fools, and sleazebags in a 6am Truth Social post that underscored the growing tension between the president and members of his own party.

Trump took aim at Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, who he declared would soon be "out of office." He went after Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, who last week lost his primary to a Trump-backed challenger. And he saved his sharpest words for Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, whom he called "a major sleazebag who lost in a landslide" after Massie was defeated in his own primary following a series of breaks with the president.

Breck Worsham, a prominent right-wing influencer and independent journalist who has since turned on President Donald Trump, warned Sunday night that the commander-in-chief had become a “direct threat” to the United States and called for his immediate removal.

“At this point Trump is no longer just a global novelty. He's no longer simply an embarrassment. He's a threat to the country he was elected to represent,” Worsham, who claims to be a three-time Trump voter who worked on two of his campaigns, wrote Sunday night in a social media post on X.

Republican Texas state Rep. Jeff Leach, who’s “proudly endorsed by President Donald Trump,” bucked the president Sunday night over his endorsement of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in his race for U.S. Senate, and suggested that voters support Paxton’s GOP opponent instead.

Leach’s reasoning for breaking with the president, he explained in a social media post on X, was a plea deal that Paxton’s office had offered former attorney Adam Hoffman, who last month was sentenced to 60 days in jail for “sexually abusing a young boy” over a three-year period.

President Donald Trump demanded on Saturday that Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) not be allowed back on the Fox News, but on Sunday, not only was Khanna invited back on the right-wing network, but the California Democrat expressed hope that the president may be watching and extend him an invitation to the White House.

Trump’s demand to Fox News was made on his social media network Truth Social, in which he shared an image appearing to be created with generative artificial intelligence depicting Khanna with fangs and horns. Trump also labeled Khanna as a “sleazebag” and a “Dumocrat.”

A Sunday report in The New York Times revealed how the Trump administration is using a key government agency to shut down any efforts to regulate online betting markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket.

According to the Times, the administration has stacked the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) with industry insiders who have systematically “mowed down” staffers at the agency who have expressed interest in providing oversight on prediction markets.
