House GOP braces for Epstein files vote as concerns remain despite Trump’s green light

House Republicans are cautiously supportive of a bipartisan bill aimed at forcing the Department of Justice (DOJ) to release all its files on Jeffrey Epstein’s case after President Donald Trump gave the bill his stamp of approval on Sunday night.

UN Security Council backs Trump’s Gaza peace plan after Waltz calls territory ‘hell on earth’

The U.N. Security Council on Monday adopted a U.S.-backed resolution to end the Gaza war and deploy an international stabilization force after Ambassador Mike Waltz urged members to support what he called ‘a bold, pragmatic blueprint’ born from President Donald Trump’s 20-point peace plan. In an address to the council, Waltz described Gaza as ‘a hell on earth’ after two years of conflict, saying the resolution offered the world a chance to replace ‘rubble where...

Pro-life pregnancy centers see client increase after Supreme Court decision: study

Raspy-voiced Trump reveals reason he ‘blew my stack’ in heated discussion

President Donald Trump blamed his hoarse voice on a tense discussion with a foreign nation who attempted to renegotiate the terms of their trade deal.  Trump sported a raspy voice during a meeting with the White House’s task force on the FIFA World Cup 2026, prompting a reporter to ask if he felt alright. ‘I feel great. I was shouting at people because they were stupid about something having to do with trade and a...

China military reaches ‘war footing’ with new missile silos and advanced AI warfare systems

China’s military buildup has reached what a new congressional report calls a ‘war footing,’ with hundreds of new missile silos and expanding nuclear capabilities that could erode America’s long-standing deterrence edge in the Indo-Pacific. China has built roughly 350 new intercontinental missile silos and expanded its nuclear warhead stockpile by 20% in the past year, part of a sweeping military expansion that the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission says could strain U.S. readiness to...

‘Radical Left’ shutdown message ignites firestorm as Democrats push for federal probe

Senate Democrats are requesting an investigation into what they say is ‘partisan messaging’ that the Trump administration used on official government websites during the longest government shutdown in U.S. history.  Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Adam Schiff of California and others are urging the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office (GAO) to launch a probe into whether the Trump administration crossed a line and broke federal laws due to messages posted on official government websites that...

Cruz keeps 2028 door open as speculation grows over GOP’s post-Trump future

Amid rumors he may pursue a 2028 bid for the White House, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, didn’t deny the possibility when asked about it on Monday morning. ‘Reporters are going to write headlines that get clicks and get eyeballs. I got a job — it’s representing 31 million Texans. And I’ll tell you right now, the wins we are getting are historic,’ Cruz said on ‘The Faulkner Focus.’ Cruz highlighted his participation in President Donald...

Epstein referenced Trump in private emails to Ghislaine Maxwell and others, new records show

The late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein discussed President Donald Trump in emails released by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Wednesday. The Democrats on the committee released three emails Wednesday that Epstein’s estate provided them — prompting Republicans to release their own stash of 20,000 pages of Epstein documents hours later, while the White House accused Democrats of seeking to distract from the government shutdown. In response, Trump announced Friday that...

China’s energy siege of Taiwan could cripple US supply chains, report warns

Instead of waging a bloody battle that could ignite a clash between nuclear-armed states, China may be betting it can conquer Taiwan without firing a shot — by choking off the island’s fuel and electricity until its government capitulates. China’s campaign wouldn’t start with missiles but with paperwork and patrol boats — ‘routine’ inspections, new customs rules and cyber intrusions designed to quietly strangle Taiwan’s imports while giving Beijing plausible deniability, according to a new...

House Republicans say Dems twisting Epstein probe to smear Trump in new memo

Oversight Committee Republicans are accusing their Democratic counterparts of using the House’s ongoing investigation into Jeffrey Epstein to attack President Donald Trump rather than find closure for the late pedophile’s victims. Fox News Digital obtained a 10-page internal memo written by GOP committee staff for lawmakers on the panel that argued Democrats intentionally misrepresented information obtained by Republicans to create a narrative that was not there. ‘Unfortunately, during this investigation, Oversight Committee Democrats, led by...
