MSNBC columnist Michael A. Cohen once believed that President Donald Trump's stated desire to take over Greenland was all hot air — but now he's not so sure.

In his latest column, Cohen — who is of no relation to the former Trump attorney of the same name — points to new evidence that the president is deadly serious about acquiring the large island nation, which would possibly require him to invade a NATO ally to get the job done.

Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is proposing security training for president Donald Trump's administration officials.

The New York Democrat is introducing the Operational Security (OPSEC) Act of 2025 on Tuesday to establish a new office to train Trump officials in security protocols and to identify counterintelligence operations after national security adviser Mike Waltz inadvertently invited a reporter to a group chat to discuss sensitive military plans, reported Axios.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has publicly raged in recent weeks about the protests being lodged against his flagship electric car company, and Mother Jones writer Timothy Murphy believes that the demonstrations have been successful beyond their organizers' wildest dreams.

Murphy in particular points to a recent rant from Musk demanding that billionaires whom he baselessly suspects of funding the protests to be arrested.

In a late-night tirade against top Senate Republicans, President Donald Trump—repeating a claim he made earlier in the week—insisted that smuggled fentanyl can be subjected to tariffs, drawing widespread ridicule, including from conservatives. He offered no explanation for how such a policy would work, nor did he clarify whether traffickers are expected to declare illegal drugs at the border.

Just before 1 AM, the President blasted former Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and his fellow Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, along with Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski and Maine’s Susan Collins, for supporting legislation that would remove the tariffs the President is imposing on the nation of Canada, one of America’s largest and oldest allies and trading partners. The Constitution grants Congress, not the President, the power over tariffs.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt slammed a report that said President Donald Trump told his cabinet that billionaire Elon Musk would soon be stepping back from his role as DOGE administrator.

Politico's Rachel Bade first reported that Trump "told his inner circle & members of his Cabinet that [Musk] will be stepping back in the coming weeks from his current role."

Republicans are having a hard time cobbling together a coherent message on the Trump administration's response to the measles outbreak spreading across the country.

Health and human services secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other administration officials have tried to downplay the escalating outbreak, which has killed a child and infected nearly 500 people in 19 states, and GOP lawmakers haven't united around a message except to say they support the administration, reported NOTUS.

Hot on the heels of billionaire and Donald Trump confidante Elon Musk suffering a humiliating defeat in Wisconsin after sinking a reported $26 million into getting a conservative elected to the state Supreme Court which turned into a massive flop, Politico is reporting Donald Trump is assuring insiders Musk will be out of their hair soon.

According to the bombshell report from Politico's Rachel Bade, "The president remains pleased with Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency initiative but both men have decided in recent days that it will soon be time for Musk to return to his businesses and take on a supporting role, according to three Trump insiders who were granted anonymity to describe the evolving relationship."

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell vowed to launch an investigation into the Wisconsin Supreme Court election a day after Judge Susan Crawford, a candidate backed by Democrats, won the race.

During a Wednesday appearance on Steve Bannon's War Room program, Lindell suggested that the race's outcome was fraudulent.

Secretary of Education Linda McMahon stormed off without answering questions after Democrats confronted her outside the department's headquarters.

During a press conference outside the department on Wednesday, Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) yielded the microphone to McMahon after she unexpectedly appeared at the event where Democrats were opposing her mission to dismantle the agency.

The U.S. Senate is poised to pass a budget that could potentially add far and away more to the national debt than any legislation in history.

Senate majority leader John Thune (R-SD) and Republicans on the Senate Budget Committee will meet Wednesday with president Donald Trump ahead of a vote later this week on a compromise budget resolution, but the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget warned the bill would add up to $5.8 trillion to the federal deficit.

President Donald Trump has reportedly determined that billionaire Elon Musk is on borrowed time in the White House.

Politico reports that Trump "has told his inner circle, including members of his Cabinet, that Elon Musk will be stepping back in the coming weeks from his current role as governing partner, ubiquitous cheerleader and Washington hatchet man."

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Wednesday accused billionaire Elon Musk of sabotaging her constituents' access to their Social Security benefits.

Writing on BlueSky, Warren revealed that she's been "hearing from Social Security recipients in MA who’ve been marked as 'not currently receiving payments,' on the Social Security website" despite the fact that they have never been marked as such in the past.
