President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform on Wednesday after the Federal Reserve agreed to a significant increase in interest rates — demanding that they do the opposite and make a massive cut instead.

"Interest Rates in the United States should be 1%, or less, because we are the Best Credit in the World — BY FAR," wrote Trump. "Our Country is BOOMING with new Investment! If we stopped Trading with every country that we have a Deficit with, which is most of them, we would make, at least, 1.5 Trillion Dollars a year."

A federal judge ordered President Donald Trump and the Kennedy Center's board to respond by Thursday morning to an emergency motion filed as forklifts were seen striking the building while quickly moved to encircle it with fencing.

Judge Christopher Cooper signed the order Wednesday, less than two hours after Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH) filed the motion, the court docket shows. Trump and the other defendants must answer by 10 a.m. Thursday, and the court will schedule a prompt hearing if necessary after reviewing that response.

President Donald Trump continues to face mounting inflation woes, explained Ed Elson of Prof G Markets on MS NOW Wednesday.

A veteran conservative election analyst is sounding the alarm about polling trends that could threaten Republicans’ control of the Senate.

Henry Olsen, a senior fellow at the conservative Ethics and Public Policy Center, examined recent polls in a Washington Post opinion piece. The review left him with a stark warning for Republicans.

Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH) asked a federal judge for an emergency hearing Wednesday after the Kennedy Center abruptly closed its doors despite an order barring President Donald Trump and the center’s board from shutting it down.

A Republican congressman accused Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth of committing more illegal acts than anyone else in the administration, after Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) called off Thursday's impeachment vote of the cabinet official.

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) delivered the speech on the House floor Wednesday, one day after he introduced eight articles of impeachment against Hegseth.

President Donald Trump is on a "collision course" with his hand-picked Federal Reserve chairman after the body gave the president a startling rebuke on Wednesday, according to a new report.

The Federal Reserve voted to raise interest rates for the first time since 2023 on Wednesday, citing persistent inflation and global impacts from the war in Iran. That puts Chairman Kevin Warsh on a "collision course" with Trump, the Guardian noted, because Trump said in a Truth Social post earlier in the day that the U.S. should have "the lowest interest rates in the world." The president also threatened to cut off trade with other countries if the Federal Reserve didn't lower interest rates.

President Donald Trump’s White House responded Wednesday after fabricated images appearing to show him locked in a kiss with a close aide on a golf course spread across social media this week.

President Donald Trump boasted to his Facebook followers about turning the White House into a "palace" Wednesday as a hostile Republican fight erupted in the House of Representatives.

The 80-year-old president celebrated the completion of a new granite helipad on the White House South Lawn on Wednesday, as House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) enraged his colleagues by calling an early recess — and avoided Rep. Thomas Massie's (R-KY) impeachment resolution against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) delivered a dire warning Wednesday as the United States battles its worst measles outbreak in 35 years, saying the crisis is “going to be a terrible legacy for this administration.”

President Donald Trump's supporters in North Carolina are venting their frustration over the problematic candidate he's decided should be their senator.
