House Oversight Committee Chair faced accusations that he was "hiding" Mar-a-Lago massage records for President Donald Trump after he shut down an attempt to subpoena them during a hearing on sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, who has been described as the president's' former best friend.

During a Wednesday hearing, Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) argued that "wealth and power cannot shield people from accountability from this committee."

Former Vice President Al Gore said he was shocked by President Donald Trump's threats against a NATO ally during a speech in Switzerland.

Trump told European leaders in Davos that he would not send troops to seize Greenland from Denmark but still demanded ownership of the world's largest island, saying he would impose severe economic and security penalties if he was not given what he wanted, and Gore reacted to the speech afterwards in an interview with CNN's Kaitlan Collins.

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) declared that Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) was "out of order" after she demanded contempt proceedings against Jeffrey Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

During Wednesday's Republican-controlled hearing seeking to hold Bill and Hillary Clinton in contempt for declining to testify on Epstein, Lee noted that Attorney General Pam Bondi had also not responded to a subpoena on the matter.

President Donald Trump, a documented liar, appeared to confirm in a televised interview that aired Tuesday night that the US military deployed a “secret sonic weapon” against Venezuelan and Cuban soldiers during the Jan. 3 raid in Caracas that killed scores of people, including civilians.

Asked about the existence or use of such a “sonic weapon” by NewsNation‘s Katie Pavlich—and whether Americans should be concerned about it—Trump responded, “No one else has it. We have weapons that no one knows about. It’s probably better not to talk about it, but we have amazing weapons. It was an amazing attack.”

Medicare and Medicaid Administrator Mehmet Oz on Wednesday said that one of the ultimate goals of President Donald Trump’s healthcare plan is to get Americans healthy enough so that they’re able to work for at least one more year during their lives.

During an interview on Fox Business to tout Trump’s recently unveiled and widely derided healthcare plan, Oz explained why it was important for Americans to be healthy so that they could be productive workers and contribute to the US gross domestic product (GDP).

Donald Trump’s administration’s unprovoked invasion of Minnesota, combined with his threats to take Greenland by force, is another sign of his commonality with convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, writes one columnist.

On Wednesday morning, as Trump was speaking at Davos and demanding Denmark turn over Greenland to the U.S. with a threat of using force, Salon’s Amanda Marcotte wrote that is the same dynamic that allowed Epstein to bully and enslave teens as his sex slaves for decades.

President Donald Trump lashed out at NATO Wednesday during his address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland over its opposition to his threats to acquire Greenland – which he appeared to confuse with Iceland – while also reminiscing of when NATO’s secretary general once referred to him as “daddy.”

Trump argued the United States’ relationship with NATO to be a “one-way street,” citing the “trillions” of dollars the United States has paid as part of the alliance while complaining that European nations have opposed his efforts to acquire Greenland. He also argued that his efforts to end the Russo-Ukrainian war have gone unappreciated by the alliance, which he said “loved” him before he launched his campaign to acquire Greenland.

President Donald Trump briefly said that he wanted to acquire Iceland instead of Greenland during a confusing moment at the World Economic Forum.

While speaking in Davos on Wednesday, Trump insisted that "all the U.S. is asking is for a place called Greenland."

Just hours before President Donald Trump was set to speak in Davos, Switzerland, one of Sweden's top pension funds, Alecta, cut its investments in U.S. Treasuries.

"Since the beginning of 2025, we have reduced our holdings in U.S. government bonds in several rounds, and together the reductions account for the majority of our holdings," Alecta's Chief Investment Officer Pablo Bernengo told Reuters.

President Donald Trump's Secretary of Commerce, Howard Lutnick, went on Fox Business on Wednesday to complain about the fact that America's NATO allies are now sending small security forces to Greenland, in response to President Donald Trump's escalating threats to annex the glaciated island territory away from the Kingdom of Denmark.

"I didn't understand why they sent a couple dozen military people to Greenland," Lutnick told anchor Maria Bartiromo. "I mean, it made no sense whatsoever. They didn't send those couple of dozen people to Ukraine before Russia came in."

Donald Trump’s bizarre rambling during his one-year anniversary in office speech where he chose to boast about his prowess on the baseball diamond when he was younger, led to no small measure of comedy on MS NOW on Wednesday morning.

During Trump's almost hour an half stream-of-consciousness televised talk, he recalled that his mother told him he had a future as a professional baseball player.
