David Hogg is making it clear he’s not going anywhere — whether Democrats like it or not.
The 25-year-old gun control activist opted not to run again for his post at the Democratic National Committee after his decision to get involved in primaries sparked intense backlash. But Hogg has continued to be active on the political scene, meeting with New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and encouraging primary challenges for Democrats who support U.S. intervention in Ir...

Dr. Oz welcomes move by states to reduce migrant health coverage
Dr. Mehmet Oz, the celebrity doctor who oversees Medicaid and Medicare for the Trump administration, welcomes the move by a trio of blue states — California, Illinois and Minnesota — to freeze or reduce health care benefits for undocumented migrants.
He told NewsNation's “CUOMO” on Friday that some states broadened their public medical programs to include migrants because they could leverage federal dollars to pay for it, but Medicaid is supposed to be reserved for the most...

On Thursday, Trump determined that he would make a “decision on whether or not to go within the next two weeks,” according to a statement read by White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.
Trump had also determined there was “a chance for substantial negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future,” Leavitt said.

Trump administration makes sweeping changes to ObamaCare, ends ‘Dreamer’ coverage
The Trump administration is shortening ObamaCare’s annual open enrollment period and ending the law's coverage of immigrants who entered the U.S. illegally as children, according to a final rule announced Friday.
The Biden administration made it easier and more affordable to sign up for Affordable Care Act plans, causing enrollment to swell to an all-time high. The Trump administration claims those moves opened a wave of fraudulent enrollment that’s costing taxpayers billi...

To fulfill their promises to voters, Republicans must govern like Democrats
Say this about Democrats: They know how to pass their agenda much faster than Republicans.
Four-and-a-half months into the second Trump administration, Republicans have achieved next to nothing legislatively, despite its total control of Washington.
Sure, President Trump has issued a slew of executive orders, but all of them will be repealed the moment a Democrat wins the White House. Laws are what really matter and stand the test of time. And despite endless talk a...
