Fox News host brutally mocked for startling monologue: 'Move over, North Korean state TV'

Onlookers mocked Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday after she shared a startling monologue during the opening segment of her weekend show, "Sunday Morning Futures."

In the monologue, Bartiromo claimed that her show had been one of the "leading critical journalists" covering government mismanagement, ranging from the "made-up Russia collusion story" that "ripped the country apart" to the "coordinated attack on the American people" by Democrats trying to "hide serious mental incapacitation" of former President Joe Biden.

Trump calls for 'weak' Republican to be 'thrown out of office' as he stumps for rival

President Donald Trump called for Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) to be "thrown out of office" on Sunday in a Truth Social post endorsing Massie's primary challenger.

Trump has sought to remake the Republican Party in his image during his second term in office by supporting candidates who run against Republicans who have challenged the president. For instance, Trump endorsed four candidates in Indiana's state primary race who won elections to replace Republicans who voted against Trump's redistricting push. Trump also supported Sen. Bill Cassidy's (R-LA) primary challenger because Cassidy voted to convict Trump during one of his impeachment hearings in his first administration.

MAGA evangelical tells thousands Lord 'raised up' Trump for ballroom: 'Gift from God'

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."

GOP's tremendous own goal likely to haunt them in the midterms and beyond: expert

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.

He mentioned issues like "transgenderism" and "opening women's locker rooms to men" as a couple of examples.

Attorney flags overlooked Trump liability that could be Democrats' midterm superweapon

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.

Ex-Trump insider exposes president's secret psychological tell: 'He just can't admit it'

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.

'False flag incoming': Journalists wince as Trump admin hints at major military operation

James Carville: Trump just made 'greatest' gaffe in US presidential history

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.

Trump's five-second 'truth bomb' may single-handedly doom GOP in November: GOP strategist

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.”
