AP Photo/Alex Brandon The bill has passed on a narrow 215-208 vote after four Republicans crossed the floor to vote with Democrats. Another six Republicans did not vote. The resolution is a stinging rebuke to Trump, especially given enough of his own party members were willing to vote against him. There were cheers in the House as the resolution passed. “A majority of Americans are sick and tired of this president’s reckless warmongering,” Democratic Congressma...

Biden sues US justice department to block release of recordings

Getty Images Joe Biden speaks at an event for South Carolina Democrats in February 2026. Former US President Joe Biden has sued the federal government to block the release of interviews with his memoir's ghostwriter, which he has described as "private information" but could contain embarrassing details about his memory. Special Counsel Robert Hur obtained the recordings and transcripts while investigating Biden's handling of classified documents. Hur found Biden improperly retained records, but he did not recommend charges. His report, released in 2024, also raised questions about Biden's fitness for office. The justice department has accused the prior administration of trying to "hide audio recordings that clearly demonstrate a significant decline" in Biden'...

Trump’s handpicked candidate may cost his party their most important state

Republicans are fretting that a candidate endorsed by Donald Trump may cost them in their most important state. Ken Paxton has claimed the nomination as the Republican Senate candidate in Texas, beating long-time incumbent John Cornyn.

Ken Paxton lost his vision in one eye in a hide-and-seek mishap when he was 12. (AP) But Paxton has been so scandal-prone that it could give Democrats an opening in the conservative state. As Texas attorney-general, his own staff reported him to the FBI with bribery and corruption accusations. Paxton then fired the whistleblowers. He was impeached by the state House of R...
