Texas Redistricting WAR: Democrats Flee State to Block Republican's GOP Map |Abbott’s Vote Collapses
A dramatic showdown erupts in Texas as 51 Democratic lawmakers flee the state, heading to Illinois to block a Republican redistricting map backed by former President Donald Trump.
The GOP-drafted map would add five Republican-leaning seats to the U.S. House, but Democrats say it's a blatant power grab that silences millions of voters.
Without the two-thirds quorum needed to proceed, Governor Greg Abbott’s special session is now in chaos.
As the redistricting war intensifies, Democrats call this political exile a fight for democracy, while Republicans label it cowardice.
Will the runaway lawmakers succeed—or be hunted down, fined, or even removed from office?
President Donald Trump lashed out at a reporter during a Texas flood roundtable, calling the question about lack of early warnings “very evil.” Visiting Central Texas following massive flash floods that left over 100 dead, Trump praised FEMA and Governor Greg Abbott’s response team, pledging swift federal aid. The Texas “Flash Flood Alley” region suffered rapid water surges, catching communities unprepared. Trump claimed “fully funded within minutes” and commended responders. He reiterated that such rapid flooding was unprecedented, dismissing criticisms. Republican Rep. Chip Roy defended him, calling the question “ridiculous.” Trump also avoided answer on future FEMA role. With casualties including at least 27 campers in Kerr County, the event highlighted his administration's partnership with Texas officials. His remarks stirred controversy over leadership tone and disaster preparedness in face of growing climate disasters.

Demonstrators demand an end to Trump’s immigration crackdown and the deployment of federal forces. Clashes erupted in Dallas as police declared the protests unlawful. Texas Governor Greg Abbott praised Trump’s response, while California Governor Gavin Newsom condemned the federal overreach. The nation stands divided as immigration, law enforcement, and civil liberties collide on the streets.

As global momentum builds for Palestinian statehood, pressure is mounting on Donald Trump. Over a dozen U.S. House Democrats, led by Rep. Ro Khanna, have penned a letter urging the Trump administration to formally recognize a Palestinian state. Citing the ongoing war in Gaza and recent moves by France and the U.K., lawmakers warn that the U.S. risks diplomatic isolation if it doesn’t act. The letter references the 22-state Arab League plan and stresses the need for mutual security guarantees for both Israel and Palestine. Some Democrats, including Rep. Al Green and Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, is also pushing for further congressional action.

Tensions between the U.S. and Russia are reaching a boiling point as US President Donald Trump claims he’s ordered the deployment of nuclear submarines in response to Russian threats. The Kremlin has fired back, with President Vladimir Putin’s spokesperson warning Washington to “be very cautious” with nuclear rhetoric. As fears of a modern-day Cold War spiral, Trump insists the U.S. is “totally prepared” for a nuclear confrontation — prompting global concern over a potential clash between two nuclear superpowers. Are we on the brink of World War III?

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has delivered a fiery rebuke to the United States, accusing Washington of aiding a coup in Brazil and using economic threats as political weapons. Speaking at a Workers’ Party event in Brasília, Lula condemned the 50% tariff threat from President Donald Trump as “economic blackmail,” and vowed that Brazil would not bow to “unequal treatment.” Without specifying the incident, Lula recalled a past U.S.-backed coup, possibly referring to 1964 or the 2016 impeachment of Dilma Rousseff.
The warning comes as tensions escalate over BRICS’ growing influence and its call to reduce dollar dependence. Lula emphasized that Brazil, no longer reliant on the U.S., is ready to negotiate but only as equals. The 50% tariff would be the highest imposed on any country, signaling a major rift in U.S.-Brazil relations. Lula’s defiance now sets the stage for a global showdown over sovereignty and trade.

Donald Trump is all in on Sydney Sweeney's controversial American Eagle ad campaign ... and it's all because of her voter registration. The prez was taking.. TMZ.com
U.S. President Donald Trump is under fire after praising actress Sydney Sweeney’s controversial American Eagle jeans ad — one critics are calling a "white supremacist dog whistle." Trump called the ad “fantastic” during a media interaction, but only after being informed that Sweeney is a registered Republican voter in Florida.
The ad, which uses the pun “Sydney Sweeney has great genes,” has been accused of having racial undertones and promoting problematic narratives. Online backlash exploded, yet Trump doubled down on his support, further politicizing the already heated campaign.
This isn’t the first time Sweeney’s political affiliations have made headlines. From her MAGA-themed family party photos to her current GOP registration, the actress is quickly becoming a lightning rod in Hollywood’s culture wars.
Watch the full video to see how fashion, politics, and celebrity culture collided — and why Trump’s comments may have made it worse.

Outspoken Republican lawmaker Marjorie Taylor Greene has condemned U.S. funding for the Ukraine war, calling it a “complete betrayal” of American taxpayers. Referring to Trump’s 2024 victory, Greene argued that voters had rejected foreign wars, yet Washington continues to finance conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. She accused Democrats—and some neocon Republicans—of pushing an “America LAST” agenda while warning that such policies will alienate younger voters permanently.
Greene even called Israel’s Gaza offensive a “genocide,” highlighting deep fractures within Trump’s GOP. Despite campaign promises to end the war, Trump recently approved additional military support for Kiev, including Patriot missile systems. The debate exposes growing discontent among Republican ranks about endless foreign interventions and unchecked military spending. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials praised Trump’s support, calling it a vital deterrent against Russian advances. Greene warned that ignoring these political alarm bells could prove disastrous for U.S. unity and voter trust.

U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a political firestorm by accusing the Democratic Party of committing “fraud” during the 2024 election campaign. In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed that Democrats paid millions to celebrities for endorsements—an act he called “totally illegal.”
He alleged $11 million was funneled to Beyoncé, $3 million to Oprah Winfrey, and $600,000 to Reverend Al Sharpton. Trump emphasized that none of the celebrities performed or contributed meaningfully, calling it a misuse of campaign funds and accusing them of falsifying financial records. He concluded with a demand for the prosecution of Vice President Kamala Harris and others “who broke the law.” Trump's latest explosive allegations have reignited debates on the legality of political endorsements, celebrity influence in elections, and campaign financing ethics. His claims, if proven, could carry legal and electoral consequences. The White House and Democratic Party are yet to respond.

Epstein Files: A political firestorm has erupted in Washington as the House passed a resolution demanding the release of all DOJ documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. The resolution, introduced by Rep. Ralph Norman and backed by multiple Republican lawmakers, orders Attorney General Pam Bondi to make all credible files public within 30 days.
These include files related to Epstein’s detention, death, his ties to Ghislaine Maxwell, and internal DOJ communications. Though symbolic and non-binding, the move has fueled public pressure to unseal Epstein's elusive “client list.” Critics call the vote a partisan stunt, while others hail it as a breakthrough for accountability. Social media exploded with demands for transparency. The question now: Will Bondi comply? Or will the cover-up claims grow louder?

Historic TRUMP'S Victory: President Donald Trump celebrates his first major legislative victory of his second term as the U.S. Congress passes the “One Big Beautiful Bill” — a sweeping package of tax cuts and federal spending reforms. The bill’s passage marks a turning point for Trump's domestic agenda and highlights strong GOP unity, led by House Speaker Mike Johnson. Trump praised Johnson, Scalise, Emmer, and Thune for delivering the win, calling it a “historic moment” and the “beauty of unified government.” The legislation sets the stage for more executive orders and deeper conservative reforms ahead.

A major political crisis is unfolding within the Republican party as former President Donald Trump lashes out at House Republicans for blocking what he calls his "big beautiful bill." The proposed legislation, designed to be the largest tax cut in modern history, has stalled due to significant infighting and a shocking lack of support from within Trump's own party. The bill's failure to move forward represents a major defiance against Trump's leadership and has sent shockwaves through the MAGA base.
The core of the crisis lies in the vote count. The House requires 217 votes to pass the legislation, but so far, only 181 Republicans have offered their support. The opposition is led by a small but determined group of four GOP Representatives—Keith Self, Victoria Spartz, Andrew Clyde, and Brian Fitzpatrick—who have publicly voted against the bill. Adding to the chaos, a staggering 35 Republicans did not cast a vote at all, leaving the bill's fate hanging in the balance ahead of a critical July 4 deadline set by Trump himself.
In a scathing rant on his Truth Social platform, Trump questioned the motives of his fellow Republicans, asking, "What are you trying to prove?" He framed the situation as a battle between "the largest tax cut vs. biggest tax hike," warning that this opposition is damaging the party's credibility and momentum. Trump stated that "MAGA is not happy" and cautioned that this defiance could lead to significant voter backlash in swing districts, with his supporters threatening to withdraw support from non-compliant lawmakers in upcoming primaries.
This internal conflict highlights a deeper debate within the GOP concerning federal spending levels, national deficits, and Trump's continued dominance over the party's direction. As the deadline looms, the standoff between Trump and the defiant House Republicans threatens to cause a permanent fracture in the party ahead of the crucial election season.

President Donald Trump’s massive $3.3 trillion tax and spending bill has hit a major roadblock in the House of Representatives. In a critical procedural vote held Wednesday, only 181 GOP lawmakers backed the bill, with four Republicans — Andrew Clyd, Victoria Sparta, Keith Self, and Brian Fitzpatrick — voting against it and 35 not voting.
With Trump demanding passage by July 4, the GOP now faces a race against time to secure the 217 votes needed. The defections have rattled Republican leadership, already under pressure from internal divisions over the bill’s spending cuts and debt ceiling provisions. Trump, who branded the bill “One Big Beautiful Bill,” now faces growing resistance within his own party. Will GOP unity crumble, or will backroom deals seal a victory before the deadline?
