Following his 2024 win, President Donald Trump required help from aides because he couldn't remember the names of the people he promised to retaliate against.

That's the scene described in "Regime Change," a new book by New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni wasted no time swiping back at President Donald Trump on Friday after he said that she "begged' him to take a photograph together, a spat that left one GOP strategist completely flabbergasted.

Brad Todd, a veteran GOP operative, discussed Meloni's sharp rebuke of Trump during a segment on CNN's "The Arena." Meloni released a video statement in which she said Trump's comments were "completely made up." She also canceled an upcoming trip to meet Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Miami, Florida.

With Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche refusing to commit to a federal court in writing that the Trump "Anti-Weaponization Fund" will be canceled, he has a new problem, analyst Scott MacFarlane told MS NOW's Katy Tur on Friday: backlash from the Senate Republicans reviewing his nomination to serve as attorney general permanently.

"So the question I had earlier ... is how Republicans are going to react to this," asked Tur. "Are they still going to be content to take Todd Blanche's word for it?"

Pro-MAGA influencers erupted in outrage after CNN tested the bright green water in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which President Donald Trump recently renovated.

Trump ordered the landmark repainted "American flag blue" for $14.2 million — far exceeding his initial $2 million estimate. Algae turned the water green within days of the pool being refilled in early June.

President Donald Trump's Department of Justice thrashed a federal judge in a new court filing for demanding that DOJ officials and two Trump cabinet secretaries officially declare that Trump's "anti-weaponization" slush fund is officially dead.

Last month, the Trump administration announced plans to create a $1.776 billion fund to pay claims from people who allege they were wrongfully prosecuted by the federal government. Several of Trump's allies, including formerly convicted members of the Proud Boys, declared that they would seek restitution from the fund, which sparked significant bipartisan pushback.

An elected official in a small, rural town in east Georgia bashed President Donald Trump's Department of Homeland Security after local residents defeated the department's attempt to turn a local warehouse into one of the nation's largest deportation centers, according to a new report.

Trump's DHS had planned to open a 10,000-person deportation facility in Social Circle, Georgia, which is about an hour drive east of Atlanta, until local leaders like city manager Eric Taylor decided to fight back. In February, Taylor shut off water to the warehouse Trump's DHS had purchased for the center. He has also reached out to Georgia Sens. Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, both Democrats, and Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA), who is running against Ossoff in the November election, to help stop the Trump administration's scheme, the Guardian reported.

Democratic political strategist James Carville warned President Donald Trump that the knives would be out after this fall's midterm elections.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is causing needless suffering within the military ranks by eliminating the universal flu vaccine mandate, according to a new analysis.

More than 160 soldiers at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas because of a growing influenza outbreak, which may have killed at least one person in basic training, according to a new editorial from The Washington Post's editorial board. Since the new mandate was handed down in April, at least half of Air Force cadets have skipped getting the shot, and that is part of why the virus is spreading, the editorial added.

A pro-Trump commentator triggered a White House attack after she called President Donald Trump's preliminary deal with Iran a humiliation for the United States.

Batya Ungar-Sargon, a self-described "MAGA lefty" who hosts a weekend show on NewsNation, broke with the administration over the memorandum of understanding Trump signed with Iran.

During President Donald Trump’s second term, White House staff began “monitoring” the president’s trash after it was discovered he had been discarding potentially valuable White House property, according to a new book from two New York Times reporters, the Daily Mail reported Friday.

The book, “Regime Change,” is written by Times journalists Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan and is scheduled for release next week. After getting a “sneak peek” at the book, the Daily Mail reported on one bizarre detail regarding the White House’s high-end silverware.

President Donald Trump seems to be shrinking himself down, according to a conservative columnist, and his seeming capitulation could diminish him even further.

The president signed an agreement to get out of his war in Iran just days after turning 80, and fellow octogenarian George Will published a column for the Washington Post outlining how all of Trump's flaws contributed to his disastrous military debacle.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio scrambled for a printer inside the Palace of Versailles after President Donald Trump went to the sign his Iran deal — without bringing a copy with him.

A new report sheds light on the chaotic behind-the-scenes details of how the historic agreement came together.

After sifting through Vice President JD Vance’s new book titled “Communion,” author Colin Dickey found a startling theme that appears to “telegraph” the impending implosion of the MAGA movement — an apparent precursor to a presidential run that Dickey warned may ultimately backfire.

“It’s hard to say how he thinks this is going to work out for him, but Communion makes clear how he sees his path ahead – even if, by releasing this during Trump’s reign, he may be playing his hand a bit too soon,” Dickey wrote in an analysis published Friday in The New Republic.
