Georgia Democrat Rep. Hank Johnson wants term limits for U.S. Supreme Court justices, saying such reforms are necessary to eliminate the possibility of "long-term rot and decay."

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson joined "Fox News Sunday," where he addresses claims that FEMA diverted disaster relief funds to immigration efforts.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is under fire for apparently contradicting herself regarding the use of FEMA funds for illegal immigrants.

Wednesday night’s vote also showed that former President Trump is intent on forcing a government shutdown, as are other Republicans unwilling to work with Speaker Johnson.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Republican leadership encountered resistance from all corners of the GOP conference to their government funding bill last week. The measure was intended to be the opening salvo in the budget showdown with Democrats, but Johnson was forced to cancel a planned vote on it Wednesday when it became clear it [...]

On the anniversary of 9/11, White House National Security Council communications adviser John Kirby dismissed responding to veterans who are critical of the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Johnson can only afford to lose the support of four Republicans on a party-line vote if there are no absences.

'I believe we'll get there'

House Republicans will vote on a Donald Trump-backed plan to avoid a shutdown, tied to a bill requiring proof of citizenship to vote.

The already-rocky gambit to avert a government shutdown is the last legislative trial for Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) before the November election, and it could have major implications for his political future. Successfully enacting conservative priorities or extending funding into next year with the hopes of avoiding an end-of-year omnibus would be a major win [...]

'This whole idea of negligence'

Reps. Mike Kelly, R-Pa., and Jason Crow, D-Colo., are leading the official probe, which is being paralleled by an unsanctioned group of lawmakers and experts.

Dueling Monday events focused on the assassination attempt against former President Trump highlighted the challenge that the official House task force investigating the attack could have in keeping the effort bipartisan and apolitical. In its first in-person and public official action, members of the bipartisan task force toured the Butler, Pa., Farm Show site where [...]

COLUMBIA — Florida defense contractor and U.S. Army sniper Cory Mills was not yet even a member of Congress when he made his first mission overseas.

The leaders of the House task force created to investigate the assassination attempt against former President Trump are feeling the time pressure to investigate the shooting in just a few short months — and keep the panel that got strikingly bipartisan support from succumbing to spectacle. Task force Chair Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) and ranking member [...]

Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) on Monday pledged to fund a "parallel independent investigation" into the attempted assassination of former President Trump, expressing disappointment at not being selected to sit on the task force to investigate the rally shooting. Speaker Johnson (R-La.) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) earlier on Monday announced the 13 members [...]

There was bipartisan agreement in getting to the bottom of the failures and negligence that led to the attempted assassination of former President Trump upon the naming of a new task force.

A former White House doctor released a letter Friday stating that former President Trump is “rapidly recovering" following the July 13 shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Who has endorsed Kamala Harris for president now that Joe Biden has dropped out? Here is a list of the current Democrats who support her, and a few notable figures who haven't yet.

A number of Democratic lawmakers, governors and past leaders were quick to rally behind Vice President Harris as she pursues the Democratic Party's presidential nomination following President Biden's withdrawal from the race. Shortly after dropping out of the presidential race, Biden endorsed Harris as his successor, stating it is "time to come together and beat" [...]

Fox News Digital sat down new Trump campaign senior advisor Alina Habba, who gave a preview of the former president's highly anticipated RNC speech.

MILWAUKEE — Again and again this week at their convention, Republicans have railed against a mysterious enemy responsible for many of Donald Trump's problems: "They."Why it matters: To Trump supporters speaking here, "they" are responsible for Trump's convictions in New York, his federal indictments, his multimillion-dollar fines in civil lawsuits, record illegal border crossings — and even the attempt to assassinate Trump last weekend. In Trump's MAGA world, exactly who "they" are usually isn't defined. But it's typically some combination of Democrats, the federal government, what the former president's supporters call media "elites," and other shadowy forces.Zoom in: It's all an escalation of the GOP's rhetoric about elitist forces working behind the scenes to take down Trump, whose political identity is partly rooted in playing a victim who's seeking retribution.Concepts like "the swamp" and the "deep state," working in the shadows against conservatives, have become key parts of the MAGA ideology and have even fueled conspiracy theories associated with QAnon. Now, even more mainstream Republican leaders are implying a connection between media bias, various legal investigations and the shooting — without explicitly naming the culprits.What they're saying: "They said [Trump] was a tyrant. They say he must be stopped at all costs," vice presidential nominee Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) said during his prime-time speech Wednesday night."They literally shot him," Vance claimed at a press conference earlier in the day, referring to last weekend's shooting that authorities say was done by a 20-year-old registered Republican."They use the unelected bureaucracy to impose their will on us without our consent, and they weaponize political power to target their political opponents, like they've done to our own nominee," Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in his speech Tuesday."Now, Donald Trump stands in their way, and he stands up for America."Between the lines: In reality, "they" are a composite of real but distinct controversies — often the most radical or exaggerated elements of the left — that together offer a single target to demonize."First they tried to silence him. Then they tried to imprison him. Now they try to kill him," Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) tweeted after Trump's assassination attempt.In an interview with CNN Tuesday, Mills clarified that he wasn't necessarily suggesting President Biden was responsible for the shooting. But when pressed to be specific about who "they" is, he said that was up for investigators to determine.Zoom in: There are real and serious questions about how law enforcement failed to prevent the attempted assassination at Trump's rally in Butler, Pa., last Saturday — violence that stunned the nation and drew calls from both parties to lower the temperature of political discourse.But a political motive has yet to be determined, and there's no evidence Democrats incited the shooter.To make the narrative more straightforward, Republicans have leaned on a generic bogeyman they've cast as being responsible for years of alleged "witch hunts" against Trump.And as the GOP convention has shown this week, that bogeyman is quite useful in rallying Republicans against a common enemy.
