Trump has suggested he didn’t give Democrats the customary briefing because Democrats are as untrustworthy as America’s adversaries.

McConnell’s remarks effectively slapped the door shut on negotiations for a deal to call top White House officials for the impeachment trial.

The Senate majority leader lamented Democrats’ decision to speak about the trial on TV, despite doing the very same thing himself just days earlier.

The massive report also accuses Trump of betraying the nation for political gain.

Republicans eliminated the state and local tax deduction, which disproportionally hurt taxpayers in blue states.

Mitch McConnell ‘needs to stop the stonewalling and give this bill a vote,’ Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) said.

Meanwhile, Republicans remain largely silent.

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has relented to mounting pressure to provide election security funding.

Speaker Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Schumer are demanding that the GOP ‘stem the endless massacres of our fellow Americans by gunfire.’

Trump seems to be abandoning his previous support for universal background checks, aligning with the anti-gun safety position of the NRA.

Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI) was horrified at how the Trump administration is treating migrants at border facilities.

Congressional leaders slammed Trump’s attorney general for shamefully misleading the public about the findings of the Mueller report.

The budget request is ‘not even worth the paper it’s written on,’ Rep. Nita Lowey said.

Trump has yet to master the art of dealing with Democrats in power.

He wants to troll Democrats with a vote on the Green New Deal, but Democrats are calling his bluff.

Trump spent his morning attacking Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on the day the White House is calling for ‘unity’ at the State of the Union address.

Chuck Schumer says it’s long past time for the intelligence community to ‘stage an intervention’ with Trump.

Trump gave in to what Nancy Pelosi and Democrats have demanded all along: ending the government shutdown before even beginning negotiations on border wall funding.

Trump stormed out of the meeting with Democrats after just 30 minutes.

Trump said he would be ‘proud’ to shut down the government unless he got $5 billion to build his wall. Now he’s giving in and getting nothing.

Republicans have to soothe Trump’s ego after his humiliating encounter with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer by wasting billions on a useless wall.

Republicans are not adjusting well to Democrats’ retaking power.

Trump threw a childish tantrum, while Democratic leaders in Congress showed that they’re the real adults in the room.

He wants to take the federal government hostage to get money his wall — and he’s proud of it.

Now that Trump is an unindicted co-conspirator in a federal crime, several senators say Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination is ‘tainted’ and ‘illegitimate.’

“Speaker Ryan should talk to Leader McConnell, who’s the only person in the U.S. Senate standing in the way of paying our troops.”

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is apparently a fan of “alternative facts.” After Donald Trump petulantly lashed out at Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi over their stances on immigration and taxes, the two backed out of a planned meeting with Trump intended to avert a government shutdown. “Given that the president doesn’t see a […]

The future of the Senate Obamacare repeal bill is in grave jeopardy. Republicans hoped that by writing their bill in secret, they could blunt the political backlash against stripping health insurance from 22 million people and cutting hundreds of billions from Medicaid, but their strategy backfired. Faced with intense public opposition and an increasing number […]

After Donald Trump fired FBI Director James Comey — in the midst of that agency’s investigation into the connections between Trump’s campaign and Russia’s election interference — leading Democrats are demanding that a special prosecutor must be appointed to continue that probe before the Senate votes on a new FBI director. Revelations that Trump gave highly […]

On the heels of Donald Trump’s failure to repeal Obamacare, Democrats are already formulating a strategy to capitalize on Trump’s ostensible overtures for bipartisanship. Whether those overtures are genuine or not, they provide Democrats with an opportunity to pressure Trump and the Republicans to improve the current health care system, rather than trying to make […]
