Trump to speak to Putin and Zelenskyy about Ukraine ceasefire – US politics live
Unclear what US president can achieve after direct talks between Russia and Ukraine ended without conclusion
US advocacy groups are waging an intensive campaign to protect Medicaid and Obamacare from Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill”, after House Republicans proposed an $880bn cut that could leave an estimated 13 million Americans without health insurance.
The House bill left Republicans’ most controversial proposals on the table, but has divided Senate Repu...
Deportations, tariffs, pardons: what Trump has planned for day one
The incoming president is ready to sign a slew of executive orders on day one of his second term. Here’s what’s planned
In the grand theatre of American politics, presidential inaugurations typically follow a familiar script: the oath, the speech, a few carefully chosen executive orders to satisfy campaign promises. Franklin D Roosevelt used his first day to tackle the banking crisis. Barack Obama moved to close Guantánamo Bay (though it remains open). Donald Trump’s first term began...
Voters need a second presidential debate that looks very different than the first
In every presidential election year since 1976, the main contenders have had at least two debates; in many years, there have been three.
However, we might only get one between the two nominees in 2024, now that former President Donald Trump has announced he will not debate President Kamala Harris again, claiming the original ABC debate was “rigged” against him.
That’s not good enough. If this is indeed the most important election o...

Lev Parnas, a convicted former aide to Rudy Giuliani, named members of Congress on Wednesday he alleged were “doing the bidding” of Russia by attempting to dig up “dirt” on President Biden during his 2020 campaign.

Zelensky helps Pelosi exit House in historic fashion
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is ending her long leadership tenure with an historic flourish, wrapping up two decades at the top of the party with a string of major victories — political, legislative and diplomatic — that are putting a remarkable cap on a landmark era.
This week alone, House Democrats have released the tax records of former President Trump following a years-long legal battle.
They wrapped up their marathon investigation into last year’s Capitol att...

Senator Ron Johnson is now backtracking from his comments on Breitbart News Radio, in which he discussed repealing and replacing Obamacare - the Affordable Care Act - if Republicans win the White House and the House and senate majorities in 2024.
