House Speaker Mike Johnson’s plan for a short-term bill to kick the government funding debate into early next year is getting a rocky reception from various corners of the House GOP.

Zinke said a short-term bill that kicks the fiscal year (FY) 2025 government spending fight into early next year could impede Trump’s goal of immediately implementing his agenda in the first 100 days of the new administration. "You’ve always heard the first 100 days is extremely important, and it is. But to be bogged down in the first 100 days dealing…

Arizona's Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs says the border state, which voted for President-elect Donald Trump in the presidential election this month, will not be aiding the incoming administration with its "misguided" plan to launch a mass deportation operation.

Black supporters of President-elect Donald Trump in Michigan slammed the notion that Black and Hispanic American men who voted for the incoming commander-in-chief are racist and misogynist.

Now President-Elect Trump is promising a big deportation push when he comes into office for his second term, and it’s more important than ever for immigrants to have their paperwork in order. "Immigration, legal immigration should be efficient and accessible and affordable for everyone," says Yasaman Soroori, the co-founder and…

Conservative CNN commentator Scott Jennings tore into prominent liberals on Monday who have pivoted to a more sober tone about President-elect Donald Trump after spending years lambasting him as a fascist threat to democracy. Following news that Trump held a meeting with MSNBC co-hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough this week, and Trump’s cordial summit with President Biden at the White House last week, Jennings remarked on the about-face, considering both the pundits and president have consistently labeled him a fascist threat. "I‘m amazed. I did not expect Hitler to get so many meeting requests, first from Joe Biden, now from Mika and Joe," Jennings told a panel on…

The Manhattan district attorney said a Bloomberg report on Tuesday morning claiming that Donald Trump's sentencing for 34 criminal charges had been "adjourned" was incorrect. The wire was based on an automated schedule alert sent out by the court that stemmed from a court email from last week saying that all future dates had been stayed, according to the DA's office. District Attorney Alvin Bragg is still slated to file a recommendation to Judge Juan Merchan on how to proceed. Merchan can move to either delay Trump's sentencing until after he leaves the White House, can dismiss the conviction outright, or can grant a sentence of unconditional discharge, which would leave…
