A political "prairie fire" has erupted in the midwest for Republican Senators who fear President Donald Trump is only fueling the flames, Politico reported Sunday.

Republicans told Politico they're deeply concerned Democrats will regain control of the Senate in November as Trump policy wallops farmers and promotes his personal brand.

Democratic Senate nominee Angie Nixon hit back Sunday after being called a “ghetto b----” by far-right influencer and White House insider Laura Loomer, a racist attack that included a slight at her manner of speaking as a Black woman.

“These women are all ghetto, entitled, race-obsessed, destructive black B------ who are completely unfit for the power they hold,” Loomer wrote Friday in a social media post on X, referring to Nixon, two Black female lawmakers and one former lawmaker.

As his reputation circles the bowl, one particular of President Donald Trump's legacy remains: toilet paper.

That's the analysis from MS NOW Sunday morning on how Trump's trade war with Canada has Americans worrying once again about toilet paper — and raging at the president.

President Donald Trump’s revenge-fueled order to rename Lake Ontario to Lake America was validated by Google on Sunday after the technology company changed the name of the lake on its service Google Maps, sparking outrage among countless critics.

Trump imposed a 50% tariff on $20 billion of Canadian goods earlier this month after trade negotiations between Washington and Ottawa broke down. In response, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney vowed to match those tariffs “dollar for dollar.” Days later, Trump signed an executive order directing the federal government to rename the smallest of the Great Lakes after the United States.

Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) published a scathing rebuke Saturday of President Donald Trump’s Venezuela oil deal only to quietly delete it and swap it for a post championing the deal as “great,” the New York Post reported.

“Any oil ‘deal’ with Venezuela’s interim regime has an expiration date: the day President Trump leaves the White House,” Salazar wrote in a now-deleted social media post on X, according to journalist Orlando Avendaño. “A lasting deal can only be made with a democratically elected government that respects the rule of law, protects private property, and is backed by strong democratic institutions.”

The Trump administration violated the Constitution when it moved to deport or rescind visas from international students who spoke up for Palestinian rights and criticized Israel’s genocide in Gaza, a federal judge ruled on Friday.

Northern District of California Judge Noël Wise, who was appointed by former President Joe Biden, said that the administration’s actions violated both the First Amendment of the Constitution protecting free speech and the Fifth Amendment ensuring due process.

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee was condemned Saturday for ignoring a brutal attack on an American news crew that occurred earlier that same day.

A crew of three NBC News correspondents was reporting from the occupied West Bank on Saturday near the Palestinian village of Jalud when a vehicle accelerated toward them with Israeli license plates, the outlet reported.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe raised eyebrows this week after secretly jetting off to Moscow, Russia, and while the Kremlin denied that any meetings between Russian officials and Ratcliffe took place, two insiders on Saturday revealed at least one apparent reason for the mysterious trip.

Two sources briefed on the matter told Axios Saturday that while in Moscow, Ratcliffe proposed a “trilateral meeting” between President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in just the latest effort to end the Russo-Ukraine war. Since the beginning of his second term, Trump has struggled to bring about an end to the conflict despite his repeated efforts.

The devastating flash floods in Nepal this week that killed at least 670 people and left around 3,000 missing — including 90 Americans — might have claimed fewer lives if not for the actions of the Trump administration, former USAID disaster-response chief Jeremy Konyndyk suggested on Saturday.

A series of catastrophic flash floods hit Nepal near its border with China on Wednesday causing unprecedented destruction. The event is believed to have been caused by a glacier collapse in the Himalayas.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was widely scrutinized Saturday after revealing an extraordinary plan designed to stabilize the bond market, a plan described by one expert as a “band-aid on a bullet hole.”

Last week, investor Lawrence McDonald flagged a series of "red flashing signals" on Fox Business, warning that climbing global bond yields were dragging prices lower, a pattern he likened to the run-up to 1987's Black Monday crash.

The mental health and substance use organization the Trimbos Institute issued a “red alert” Friday after discovering a batch of ecstasy pills shaped like the head of President Donald Trump that contained a potentially lethal substance, a discovery that critics were quick to flag as ironic.

The pills depict the face of Trump on one side, and his last name branded on the other. Far more concerning to the Trimbos Institute, however, was that the pills contained a “high concentration of a chemical called PMMA, or para-methoxymethamphetamine,” a chemical similar to MDMA, the synthetic drug often found in ecstasy.
