Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) is threatening to derail House Republican leaders' legislative agenda for weeks, including a bipartisan housing bill, unless the chamber fights for the SAVE America Act, the stalled Trump-backed voter ID and citizenship-proof legislation.

"I will be voting no and oppose other bills AND rules until we fight for SAVE America Act," Luna threatened Monday on X. "That means if House GOP leadership chooses today to move the SENATE HOUSING BILL under suspension (getting rid of our house rules) I will vote to shut the floor down. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE."

President Donald Trump has turned his son-in-law's former office into a hoarding space complete with “papers, paintings, tchotchkes, MAGA paraphernalia, and various gifts he couldn’t bear to throw away," according to a new report.

The Daily Beast reported, citing details in the new book Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump by Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan of The New York Times, that Trump has been storing his stuff in so-called "Beautiful mind boxes" in Jared Kushner's old office. The boxes hold memorabilia from Trump's time in office, including papers, newspaper clippings, and other items that make Trump feel secure, according to aides who spoke with Haberman and Swan.

A White House spokesman went on the record to deny a report suggesting that President Donald Trump was granted access to an experimental obesity drug not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

STAT reported the FDA and Eli Lilly allowed one individual – a 79-year-old man – to gain access to retatrutide through a “compassionate use” program typically reserved for patients with serious and immediately life-threatening medical issues, and reporter Lizzy Lawrence asked the White House whether that patient was the president.

After yet another 6-3 Supreme Court ruling that handed Donald Trump’s administration one more victory, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson called out her conservative colleagues over their betrayal of existing green card holders.

According to The Independent, the ruling came down in Blanche v. Lau, which agrees with the administration that, if a green card holder leaves the U.S. and then returns, a border official can arbitrarily declare they may have committed a possible crime and therefore can revoke and confiscate their green card without evidence, putting them in a "legal limbo."

The case centered on Muk Choi Lau, a lawful permanent resident who returned from a short trip to China in 2012. A border officer placed him on immigration parole after he was accused of counterfeiting crimes. Lau later pleaded guilty to selling counterfeit clothes in New Jersey, but argued the officer had overstepped authority in triggering deportation proceedings, the report notes.

The conservative majority Supreme Court disagreed, with Thomas reasoning that, "Border officers did not have the burden to establish by clear and convincing evidence that Lau had committed a crime involving moral turpitude."

Jackson, joined by Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, unleashed a fierce counterattack, writing that the majority's ruling "cavalierly swept aside" the rights of green card holders and handed the government a "massive blank check" to rewrite immigration law as it sees fit at the moment.

The decision allows the government to upend a green card holder's status upon return to the U.S. "so long as the government is able to show later that he was eventually convicted," Jackson noted— calling it an astonishing reversal of the "burden of proof" standard.

"That sequencing undermines the plain terms and basic operation of the relevant statutory scheme, which guarantees that lawful permanent residents will not be 'regarded as seeking an admission' at the border unless certain exceptions apply," she added.

Reacting to reports that Donald Trump has given the okay from Iran to start selling oil to the United States, handing the extremist leadership an immediate source of billions of dollars, MS NOW host Stephanie Ruhle admitted she was dumbfounded.

On her “Money Power Politics" morning show, Ruhle, a former Wall Street executive, reported, “We learned the administration will allow Iran to sell their oil for US dollars. Why is this a big deal? It is a decision that upends decades of US policy that was meant to make it harder for them to develop their nuclear program.”

The Justice Department has withdrawn extraordinary grand jury subpoenas issued to reporters from two newspapers after they challenged the demands in federal court, marking a rare retreat from an exceedingly aggressive tactic against the press.

The DOJ had sought to compel Washington Post national security reporter Ellen Nakashima and three Wall Street Journal journalists to testify before a federal grand jury regarding their reporting on sensitive national security matters, but the Post reported that both orders were pulled back.

President Donald Trump doubled down on his theory Tuesday that vandals were responsible for his failed Reflecting Pool renovations, suggesting that “razor blades” may have been used to create a “gash” in the pool’s bottom longer than a football field “in the dark of night.”

“The 350 foot gash, made by a very sharp knife or razors, is actually numerous slashes over a very long 350 foot length,” Trump claimed on his social media platform Truth Social.

CBS News and other news organizations have investigated President Donald Trump's claim that vandals left a 350-foot gash in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and have found that there is "no sign."

On Monday, Trump doubled down on his assertions about how the Reflecting Pool fiasco happened, saying it "has been given a 300-foot-long gash." The president told CBS News that he would present the evidence in court.

Vice President JD Vance’s becoming the face of the Iran peace negotiations has all the appearances of Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Donald Trump leaving the veep out to dangle in the wind by defending a deal that will go nowhere.

That is according to MS NOW’s Jake Traylor, who told host Stephanie Ruhle on Tuesday morning that one administration insider called Vance’s hyping up the negotiators' efforts a “complete capitulation” to Iran and characterized Trump’s initial praise of it as “salesmanship,” before adding, “That’s putting lipstick on a very ugly pig.”
