An outgoing Republican member of Congress bashed President Donald Trump's "slap in the face" for everyday Americans during a tense interview with NBC News' Kristen Welker on Sunday.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who has declared herself as ex-MAGA, joined Welker on "Meet the Press" a day before Greene's last day in Congress. Greene announced her resignation in November over "growing tensions" with Trump and the administration's attempts to hide or obscure the Jeffrey Epstein files.

A foreign analyst revealed on Sunday the "most uncomfortable" part of President Donald Trump's arrest of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro.

Maduor and his wife, Cilia Flores, were detained by the U.S. Delta Force on Saturday morning at their residence and then swiftly flown to the U.S., according to multiple reports. The couple has been indicted on narco-terrorism and gun charges, and Attorney General Pam Bondi said after the arrest that the couple will face the "full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts."

The Trump administration's decision to arrest Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro early Saturday morning could have wide-reaching consequences that Trump is not prepared to deal with, according to one conservative analyst.

On Saturday morning, U.S. Delta Forces arrested Maduro and his wife at the Venezuelan presidential palace. The couple was swiftly flown to the U.S. to be prosecuted on narco-terrorism and gun charges. Trump has also said the U.S. will "run" Venezuela until a new government is formed, and suggested that the leaders of Mexico and Colombia could be arrested next.

Former FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino kicked off his first day since leaving the agency Sunday with an innocuous social media post wishing his 7.2 million followers a “happy Sunday,” but was immediately hit with demands from his followers to divulge the “corruption” they alleged to be rampant within the Trump administration.

“Good morning Dan – welcome back,” wrote Ellen Streiff, a self-proclaimed Christian Nationalist who frequently shares conservative content, in a social media post on X. “Now that you had an up-close insider’s look at what is really going on at the FBI, will you expose the corruption?”

Calls for President Donald Trump to be impeached following the administration's arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife grew louder on Sunday.

Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were arrested by U.S. troops early on Saturday morning in the Venezuelan leader's palace and flown to the U.S. to face prosecution for narco-terrorism and gun charges. Flores and Maduro's son, Nicolas, are also named in the indictment, which the administration unveiled following Maduro's arrest. Following the move, Trump announced that the U.S. would "run" Venezuela for a transition period and didn't rule out sending U.S. military troops to the country.

President Donald Trump authorized the unprecedented attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of President Nicholas Maduro Friday night after having escalated military threats against the South American nation for months, but according to two insiders who spoke with the New York Times, it was the “Maduro’s regular public dancing” that was Trump’s breaking point.

“It was one dance move too many for Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro,” the New York Times reported Sunday.

The Trump administration’s repeated justification for capturing Venezuela's president has been that he was facing criminal charges from the United States, but one political commentator noted that by that same logic, President Donald Trump had just given countries the world over the “green light” to launch their own military invasions.

“If [Chinese President] Xi Jinping invaded Taiwan right now, and toppled the president there, on what grounds would the United States object?” wrote former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan in a social media post on X. “Or have any credibility to say anything?”

Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT), the top-ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, argued Sunday that his House colleague Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) had just moments earlier accidentally given “the game away” by revealing President Donald Trump’s disregard for the legislative branch of government, and his method of weaponizing his own party's capitulation.

Jordan appeared on CNN Sunday and, when asked about the contradictions between Trump’s purported “America First” ideology and his unprecedented attack on and takeover of Venezuela on Saturday, repeatedly claimed that he trusted Trump’s judgement.
