That led to lawsuits filed by the town's residents.

Former Watergate prosecutor Nick Akerman thinks that Republicans are trying to catch former special counsel Jack Smith in a perjury trap so they can arrest him for investigating President Donald Trump.

Speaking to MSNBC on Monday morning, Akerman, a former assistant U.S. Attorney in the Southern District of New York, said that it's clear Smith is refusing to speak with Congress unless the testimony is public.

Newsmax legal analyst Andrew Napolitano suggested President Donald Trump was not telling the truth when he claimed that a billionaire's $130 million donation could be used to pay military troops during the government shutdown.

Speaking on Monday, Napolitano reacted to the $130 donation by Timothy Mellon, which Trump promised would "make sure that the military got paid."

President Donald Trump revealed Monday that he had undergone an MRI scan during a recent checkup at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center but has remained tight-lipped about what prompted the examination, leading to one medical expert raising serious questions as to the president’s health.

“It's not part of a routine screening examination,” said Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a CNN medical analyst who’s certified in interventional cardiology and internal medicine, speaking on the network Monday.

Indiana Gov. Mike Braun, a Republican, has called the GOP-controlled legislature back to Indianapolis for an emergency session to redraw the congressional district lines for President Donald Trump.

Punchbowl News congressional reporter Laura Weiss shared Braun's press release, noting that a spokesperson for Senate President Pro Temp Rodric Bray (R) said that “the votes still aren't there for redistricting."

President Donald Trump’s plan to get the Department of Justice to reimburse him for legal costs and damages, to the tune of $230 million, because he feels he was criminally pursued as part of a bogus investigation could be derailed by one of his biggest supporters.

Last week, the president floated the idea that he should be reimbursed millions because he was investigated by the DOJ over both evidence that Russia helped him get elected in 2016 as well as the search of his Mar-a-Lago resort to reclaim stolen government documents.

Americans now favor Canada to President Donald Trump by a margin of nearly 60 percentage points according to a new poll, a revelation that CNN's Harry Enten promptly ridiculed the president over on Monday.

The poll comes amid Trump’s latest spat with Canada over an advertisement that criticized Trump’s tariff policy using the words of former President Ronald Reagan. Trump falsely accused the Canadian province that paid for the ad of manipulating the late president's words and immediately cut off trade talks with the nation, and then slapped it with higher tariff rates in retaliation.

Where once it was the price of eggs, now it is the high cost of beef that is bedeviling President Donald Trump's administration, which came into office boasting it would drive down food prices.

According to a report from Politico’s Myah Ward and Grace Yarrow, the White House is dealing with fallout not just from consumers, but also “farm-state Republicans and agriculture industry groups” who are objecting to Trump's marketplace meddling involving beef from Argentina.

President Donald Trump blamed his past feud with Tesla CEO Elon Musk on the billionaire having a “stupid moment in his life," calling it a “bad moment” for the Trump ally that had once poured hundreds of millions of dollars into his 2024 campaign.

The two engaged in a messy public spat that began with Musk’s criticism of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in May, stepping down from his role as a special government employee just days later. The feud ramped up in July after Musk accused Trump of being in the files related to Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted child sex abuser who died in 2019 awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges.

President Donald Trump’s increasingly frantic rhetoric about allowing him to impose tariffs on a whim has turned into a bid for the Supreme Court to swiftly rule in his favor -- which received pushback on MSNBC on Monday morning.

Over a week ago, the president warned, “I will tell you that’s one of the most important cases in the history of our country because if we don’t win that case, we will be a weakened, troubled, financial mess for many, many years to come.”

President Donald Trump told reporters early Monday morning that he would “love to” run for president in 2028, a remark that comes shortly after a key ally revealed that there was already a “plan” in place to circumvent the constitutional amendment that prohibits presidents from serving more than two terms in the White House.

“I would love to do it – I have the best numbers ever!” Trump told reporters Monday while aboard Air Force One on whether he was considering a third run for office, Politico reported. “Am I not ruling it out? You’ll have to tell me.”

Republican officials in California are expressing dismay with President Donald Trump for staying out of the fight with Gov. Gavin Newsom over an effort to redistrict the state that could cost Republicans multiple seats in the House.

According to a report from Politico, California Republicans are choosing their words carefully when complaining about the president turning his back on their efforts to derail Proposition 50, with Politico’s Alex Gangitano writing “the White House has been backing away from campaigning against Democrats’ efforts to redraw California’s House map, appearing largely resigned to the idea it will pass given Democrats’ strong polling advantage.”

President Donald Trump floated the idea of renaming the Kennedy Center after himself Monday in just the latest example of the president’s infatuation with reshaping the historic cultural center in Washington, D.C., in his own image.

“The new TRUMP KENNEDY, whoops, I mean, KENNEDY CENTER, columns, beautifully painted in a luxuriant white enamel color, replacing the fake looking gold paint that was there for years,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
