Democratic Rep. Emilia Sykes is projected to survive her closely watched re-election bid by defeating her GOP challenger. The Associated Press called the race for Ohio’s 13th Congressional District for Sykes over former Ohio state Sen. Kevin Coughlin on Wednesday just before 3 p.m. ET. Sykes, a first-term Democrat who won in 2022 by five points, was defending her seat in a district that includes parts of two counties that former President Trump comfortably won in 2020.

Former "The View" co-host Meghan McCain accused ABC News of "malfeasance" for not having any conservative women who voted for President-elect Donald Trump on the political talk show the morning after his historic win. "It is actual malfeasance on the part of ABC News that there isn't one single conservative woman on The View this morning who voted for Trump or simply isn't repulsed by his supporters to explain to America why he is still so popular," she posted to X on Wednesday. ABC News did not respond to a request for comment by Fox News Digital. McCain was the lone conservative voice during her four-year stint on the political talk show, from 2017-2021. Her criticism …

The Justice Department is looking to wind down two federal criminal cases against President-elect Donald Trump as he prepares to be sworn in to a second term in the White House— a decision that upholds longstanding policy that prevents Justice Department attorneys from prosecuting a sitting president. In making this argument, Justice Department officials cited a memo from the Office of Legal Counsel filed in 2000, which upholds a Watergate-era argument that asserts it is a violation of the separation of powers doctrine for the Justice Department to investigate a sitting president. It further notes that such proceedings would "unduly interfere in a direct or formal sense…

With Republicans projected to win the Senate majority in the 2024 election, "the filibuster will stand," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell noted on Wednesday. Even when one party controls a slim majority of Senate seats, the other party can still block legislation from advancing due to the significant threshold required for overcoming the filibuster. "In 1975 the Senate reduced the number of votes required for cloture from two-thirds of senators voting to three-fifths of all senators duly chosen and sworn, or 60 of the 100-member Senate," senate.gov notes.

Gundy has been the head coach of the Cowboys since 2005.

Tears shed at Vice President Kamala Harris’ election night event caused déjà vu for some Americans. Harris failed to defeat President-elect Donald Trump in the 2024 election, as the vice president became the second Democratic nominee in recent years to disappoint supporters who expected to attend a historic victory party. CNN’s election night panel began to realize the race was over when Harris campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond announced to those gathered at Howard University that Harris wouldn’t speak to supporters on election night. His remarks mirrored 2016, when Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta spoke briefly in front of a somber crowd before announcin…

Democrats are growing increasingly concerned that they will narrowly lose the House of Representatives after Republican victories in the Senate and White House. The balance of power in the House is expected to run razor-thin no matter who wins, but sources who spoke with Fox News Digital are worried that the Democrats' path is narrowing. "We're almost certainly going to lose the House by a narrow margin," a senior House Democratic aide told Fox News Digital. "We got our a--es kicked." The House aide found optimism, however, in Republicans' comparatively decisive victories in the upper chamber and presidential race. THOUSANDS OF NONCITIZENS REMOVED FROM VOTER ROLLS, DOZENS…
