Democrat takes surprise lead once occupied by Marjorie Taylor Greene

A Democrat is topping the vote in the ruby red Georgia seat once occupied by Marjorie Taylor Greene. Democrat Shawn Harris has advanced to a runoff in Georgia's 14th Congressional District, where he'll face Clayton Fuller, President Donald Trump's pick to replace his nemesis, according to the Associated Press. With nearly 90 percent of votes tabulated, Harris is tracking ahead of Fuller. Harris, a retired Brigadier General in the United States Army, ran on a platform of paying teachers better, passing a farm bill, and protecting veterans. He also touted a 'tough but compassionate immigration policy,' during his campaign.

Report: Trump’s sons face corruption accusations over drone investment

Donald Trump's sons are facing corruption accusations after investing in a drone start-up competing for Pentagon contracts. Don Jr . and Eric Trump have poured money into Powerus, a Florida-based defense start-up competing for Pentagon drone contracts, the Wall Street Journal reported. The company, formed in 2025, is competing for a slice of the Pentagon's $1.1 billion Drone Dominance initiative and is merging with a publicly traded golf company to list on the NASDAQ. The Pentagon's push to acquire its own drone fleet has been thrown into sharp focus by Iran's battlefield deployment of Shahed drones costing approximately $25,000 per unit, as the US burns through missile stockpiles priced at up to $13 million each.

Hegseth snaps at reporter when pressed on Trump’s Iran war timeline

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth had no patience for reporters asking about the timeline for the US war with Iran . President Donald Trump told the Daily Mail on Sunday that he expected the conflict to last for four weeks or less. Hegseth refused to confirm that timeline or provide any others. He insisted that, unlike previous administrations, this one would not share minutiae about war plans, pointing out that such transparency would provide information to US adversaries.

Trump says US ready to fight Iran for ‘far longer’ than four weeks

Donald Trump on Monday assured the American public that the US was equipped to fight a lengthy war with Iran if necessary, but boasted that Operation Epic Fury was already ahead of schedule. The President also stressed he would not get 'bored' if the war dragged on longer than expected. Trump was in the East Room for a Medal of Honor ceremony when he gave his first public comments on this weekend's Iran strikes, which resulted in the deaths of four US troops. 'Today, we grieve for the four heroic American service members who have been killed in action, and send our love and support to their families,' the President said. 'In their memory, we continue this mission with ferocious, unyielding resolve to crush the threat this terrorist regime poses to the American people.'

Dan Crenshaw ousted following clashes with MAGA

Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw was ousted in a primary by a state legislator following bruising clashes with MAGA Republicans during his time on Capitol Hill. Crenshaw, a fourth-term congressman representing Texas' Houston-area Second Congressional District and former Navy Seal, was defeated Tuesday by State Representative Steve Toth, according to the Associated Press. The stunning defeat is also a victory for Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who last week came out against his congressional colleague and endorsed Toth. Toth, an ordained pastor and businessman who owns two pool maintenance companies, has come after Crenshaw for not being sufficiently conservative, as well as being too focused on international affairs.

Trump denies that Israel pushed US into war with Iran

Donald Trump strongly denied that Israel pushed the US into war with Iran, saying that he actually 'may have forced' their hand, following fury from his MAGA base. During his first interaction with members of the press after the weekend operation, Trump was asked if Israel dragged the US into conflict. 'No, I might have forced their hand,' he stated to the contrary. Trump's comments appear to contradict what Secretary of State Marco Rubio said yesterday after briefing lawmakers on Operation Epic Fury. 'We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action. We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces,' Rubio said. 'And we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties.'

Karoline Leavitt’s swipe at conservatives against Iran war

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt took a swipe at members of President Donald Trump's MAGA base who have criticized his military action in Iran . 'X is not real life,' Leavitt said. 'This President lives in the real world.' Leavitt had stopped to gaggle with reporters Friday on the White House driveway when asked about Republican Party infighting. 'And with respect to MAGA, President Trump is the leader of MAGA,' she continued. 'He's the creator of the MAGA movement. And there is nothing more "America First" than taking out terrorists who have maimed and killed our own service men and women, who chant "death to America," and who pose a threat to the homeland.' Former Fox News hosts Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly have thus far led the Iran war opposition.

Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman moved to back his Senate colleague Markwayne Mullin for the top DHS job almost immediately — earning the vicious fury of Democrats who are growing tired of his independence. 'I'm not sure how many fellow Democrats will vote to support our colleague @SenMullin as the next DHS Secretary, but I am AYE,' Fetterman posted on X.

Rubio backtracks after Trump rewrites Iran strike narrative

Secretary of State Marco Rubio claimed the media misunderstood his comments indicating that the 'imminent threat' prompting the US to strike Iran was a pre-planned strike by Israel. Rubio, speaking to reporters on Capitol Hill before a closed-door Senate briefing on Iran Tuesday, said he was the victim of a bad clipping job and that he never indicated that Israel forced the US to strike Iran preemptively. 'I told you this had to happen anyway,' Rubio said. 'The President made a decision, and the decision he made was that Iran was not going to be allowed to hide behind its ballistic missile program, that Iran was not going to be allowed to hide behind its ability to conduct these attacks. That's what I said yesterday, and you guys need to play it. If you're going to play these statements, you need to play the whole statement, not flip it to reach a narrative that you want to,' he added.

Hillary Clinton’s heated exchange with Nancy Mace during Epstein deposition

Hillary Clinton exploded on Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace while explaining how she met Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick after the 9/11 attacks. Mace grilled Clinton over her ties to Jeffrey Epstein and the current Trump official during a marathon congressional deposition last Thursday. Lutnick had attempted to recruit Epstein to attend an 'intimate fundraiser' for Clinton during her 2016 presidential campaign. In a video of the deposition released Monday, the former first lady and secretary of state can be seen getting visibly angry after Mace interrupts her.

Trump obliterates Iran’s navy by sinking eleven boats

The US military said it struck Iran ’s largest naval warship following the launch of Trump’s ‘Operation Epic Fury.’ US Central Command also rebuked Iranian leadership for falsely claiming it had sunk an American aircraft carrier in the Gulf. 'The Iranian regime’s false messaging machine continues to falsely claim that it has sunk a US aircraft carrier. The only carrier that has been hit is the Shahid Bagheri, an Iranian drone carrier,' the US Central Command said. 'US forces struck the ship within hours of launching Operation Epic Fury.' Tehran reportedly used the IRIS Shahid Bagheri as a launching pad for drone attacks against US military base and Gulf allies following the death of the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Backlash grows after Rubio concedes Israel forced US hand in Iran war

The US launched preemptive strikes against Iran after learning Israel was about to attack — and American troops in the region faced an imminent threat of retaliation, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Monday. Rubio made the revelation on Capitol Hill, where he briefed a small group of congressional leaders on the joint US-Israel offensive. 'There absolutely was an imminent threat,' Rubio stated. 'And the imminent threat was that we knew that if Iran was attacked, and we believed they would be attacked, that they would immediately come after us, and we were not going to sit there and absorb a blow before we responded.' Rubio said the Department of War determined that a defensive posture following an Israeli attack would only open the US to more casualties. Five American soldiers have died so far in combat.

Trump breaks silence Sunday on the first US casualties of the Iran war

President Donald Trump broke his silence Sunday on the first US casualties of the Iran war in an exclusive phone interview with the Daily Mail. Three US service members were killed in the fighting. They have yet to be identified publicly. 'They're great people,' the president said. 'And, you know, we expect that to happen, unfortunately. Could happen continuous - it could happen again.' Trump acknowledged that the three casualties were the first in his second term, as the January capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro and the June bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities were pulled off without a single American death.
