New Schiff leak claim from whistleblower echoes years of similar accusations

Longtime Trump political foe Democrat Sen. Adam Schiff for years has been accused of leaking classified documents — long before the release of a ‘bombshell’ whistleblower testimony claiming the California lawmaker approved leaking classified information in order to discredit the president during the Russiagate probe, Fox News Digital found.  Schiff, who served in the U.S. House for more than two decades before securing his spot in the U.S. Senate in 2024, is facing heightened scrutiny...

A moderate House Democrat’s town hall devolved into chaos minutes after it began on Tuesday night, with pro-Palestinian activists clashing with both the congressman and fellow attendees in what became a near-constant torrent of interruptions and protests.

Wesley Bell, D-Mo., who defeated far-left ‘Squad’ member Cori Bush in the Democratic primary last year, repeatedly pleaded with protesters to allow him to speak while defending his position on Israel and Hamas. ‘Stop talking. This is...

Giving Putin the Donbas would hand Moscow powerful leverage over Kyiv’s financial survival

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has firmly rejected proposals to concede land to Russian President Vladimir Putin, particularly the hotly-contested Donbas region. The Donbas, which includes Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts, is Ukraine’s industrial heartland where coal mining and steel production are the main drivers of economic growth. Ultimately, control of the region’s mines and factories would hand Moscow powerful leverage over Kyiv’s post-war economic survival. ‘Donbas offers both a military advantage and significant economic resources, making...

I made memes for the White House. Here’s what I learned

‘oMg, diD tHe wHiTE hOuSE reALLy PosT tHis?’ That became one of the most common reactions across the White House’s feeds. The answer was always yes.

Trump slams mail-in ballots as corrupt, but may not have the power to derail them

President Trump told Brian Glenn of the conservative Real America’s Voice that he didn’t want to answer his question because it was ‘off-topic’ as he stood there with Volodymyr Zelenskyy and European leaders. Then he proceeded to answer it at great length. The idea, it turns out, began with Vladimir Putin, who has a bit of experience at keeping himself in power, which isn’t all that hard if you’re a dictator. My source? Donald Trump....

Justice Barrett teases new memoir in abrupt conference exit

Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett knows how to command an audience.  This was crystallized Monday night at the Swissotel in Chicago, where she spoke for just three minutes to several hundred judges and legal professionals gathered for the Seventh Circuit Judicial Conference. Her remarks, though short, were optimistic and warm. She urged the courts to keep their sense of ‘camaraderie and professionalism’ despite inevitable, sharp disagreements. This, she said, is ‘what enables the judicial...

Schiff launches legal defense fund in response to claims Trump is ‘weaponizing’ justice system

Sen. Adam Schiff launched a legal defense fund as the California Democrat faces a federal investigation for alleged mortgage fraud and President Donald Trump repeatedly condemns him for years of allegedly promoting the ‘Russiagate’ hoax, according to a report published Tuesday.  ‘It’s clear that Donald Trump and his MAGA allies will continue weaponizing the justice process to attack Senator Schiff for holding this corrupt administration accountable,’ a spokeswoman for Schiff told the New York Times....
