Jeffrey Epstein's relationship with the British royal family may be much deeper than previously reported, according to one of the royal family's biographers.

Andrew Lownie, who has written two books about the royal family, including a biography of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's relationship with Epstein, revealed during a new episode of the Daily Beast’s "The Royalist Podcast" that another member of the royal family also kept company with Epstein. Lownie said that Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, had dinner with Epstein in the mid-1990s and may have helped give him credibility he didn't deserve.

President Donald Trump dumbfounded CNN's Erin Burnett on Tuesday after he shrugged off the economic pain Americans are feeling because of his war with Iran.

Burnett played a clip of Trump speaking to reporters outside the White House during the opening segment of her show, "OutFront," where he was asked about what Americans should think of the economic toll the war is taking. The question was asked at a time when the most recent economic data showed inflation spiked 3.8% over the last year, the highest reading in multiple years, driven primarily by energy price increases resulting from the war.

President Donald Trump has found himself in an "unprecedented position of political weakness" as poll after poll shows his policies are dragging the GOP down ahead of the midterms, according to one analyst.

Rick Wilson, co-founder of The Lincoln Project, said in a recent podcast episode that the GOP's efforts to redraw several state election maps are a sign of how weak Trump has become as the 2026 midterms approach. He argued that Trump has effectively erased any positive messaging Republicans can use to attract voters because the war in Iran has caused consumer prices to surge and has eaten away at the gains that Trump's tax cuts would have given voters.

Republicans are probing whether OpenAI founder Sam Altman may have violated conflict-of-interest laws through some of his personal investments, while turning a blind eye to the Trump family's investments, according to a new report.

The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday that the House of Representatives Oversight Committee sent Altman a letter on Friday alerting him that they are probing whether funds donated to OpenAI's charitable arm were "diverted for unintended uses." They are also looking at whether Altman's deals with companies like Helion, a nuclear fusion startup, are boosting OpenAI's value.

Political analysts and observers were wide-eyed after President Donald Trump came unglued over the media coverage of the war in Iran on Tuesday.

Trump posted on Truth Social that media outlets that report Iran is doing well in the war are committing "virtual treason." He's made similar statements in the past, and the president's new post came at a time when negotiations between the U.S. and Iran seem to be at an impasse.

GOP senators are throwing cold water on President Donald Trump's latest plan to reduce gas prices, according to a new report.

Trump has proposed suspending the federal gas tax to help lower prices at the pump for American consumers. The plan is strikingly similar to the one former President Joe Biden proposed in 2022, which GOP senators fiercely rejected, and Congress needs to approve it before the tax is officially suspended.
