Former Republican National Committee chair Michael Steele, also on the panel, suggested Democrats call the bluff and demand election monitors in a bunch of Republican-favoring areas.

The Wall Street Journal's conservative editorial board ripped a pair of Trump administration officials in a new editorial on Monday over their efforts to kill a drug that treats melanoma.

As President Donald Trump is in the midst of a trip to multiple Asian countries, one Virginia-based soybean farmer is accusing him of weakness in standing up for the American agricultural sector.

During a Monday segment on MSNBC, John Boyd — who operates Boyd Farms out of Baskerville, Virginia — said Trump abandoned his "America first" agenda by bailing out Argentina to the tune of $40 billion while leaving American farmers out to dry. He pointed out that China, which used to be the top buyer of American soybeans, now buys most of its soybeans elsewhere due to Trump's tariffs.

Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-TX) bashed the GOP on Monday for slow-walking a high-profile investigation that the MAGA base expects them to execute during President Donald Trump's second term.

During an interview on MAGA influencer Benny Johnson's eponymous podcast, Hunt said Republicans have not been focused on re-investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection and releasing new evidence and footage of the event. He said Republicans appear uninterested in fighting back against the narrative surrounding Jan. 6.

The Trump administration has added a new requirement to its performance reviews this year that requires workers in the Department of Health and Human Services to produce evidence that they “clearly and demonstrably support implementation” of President Donald Trump's agenda, according to a new report.

HuffPost reported on Monday that "tens of thousands" of HHS employees have received notice that the new requirements will be on their end-of-year reviews. The new metric, dubbed “Faithful Support of Administration of the Law and the President’s Policies,” is one of four new "critical elements" added to their performance reviews, according to the report.

MAGA fans melted down on Monday after a judge ruled that Tyler Robinson, who is accused of killing conservative activist Charlie Kirk during a speaking engagement at a Utah university in September, is allowed to wear street clothes during his trial.

The New York Post reported on Monday that Robinson's lawyers requested that he be allowed to wear civilian clothing during the trial. Judge Tony Graf of Utah's Fourth District Court ruled in favor of the motion but denied another motion that would have allowed Robinson to attend trial without shackles or restraints, according to the report.

Former Labor Secretary and class warrior Robert Reich took to social media on Monday to sound the alarm about something "flying under the radar that you should know about."
