As the 2026 Senate elections approach, both Republicans and Democrats are gearing up for a high-stakes battle.
With the GOP holding a narrow 53–47 majority, control of just five key seats could determine how much power Donald Trump holds in a possible second term.
Democrats are strategizing to flip seats across the South and Midwest, while Trump faces internal GOP rifts and divisive primaries.
The outcome could define everything from legislation to Supreme Court picks.
The fight for Congress is already underway—and it’s anything but certain.
In a fierce response, former President Obama blasts Trump’s baseless treason accusations as a desperate distraction from the Epstein scandal fallout. Despite Trump’s wild conspiracy theories naming Obama and others as the leaders of a ‘coup,’ multiple independent investigations and a bipartisan Senate report confirm Russia interfered to help Trump win in 2016. Watch as the political battle heats up with shocking revelations, misinformation, and escalating attacks. Don’t miss the full breakdown of the explosive claims and counterclaims shaking U.S. politics in 2025.

Senator Lindsey Graham reveals that a sweeping new Senate sanctions bill is on the brink of passage, offering President Trump a “sledgehammer” to punish not only Russia but also its key global allies like China, India, and Brazil. The legislation empowers Trump to levy up to 500% in tariffs on any nation that continues trading with Moscow — a dramatic escalation in US policy that could reshape global trade dynamics.
Graham predicts “maximum flexibility” for presidential enforcement and signals an imminent surge in military aid to Ukraine, funded by frozen Russian assets. While Moscow dismisses the move as futile and claims it merely fuels Russia’s independence, the US plans to ratchet up pressure if diplomatic efforts falter. As this bold strategy takes shape, the world braces for a seismic shift in economic warfare.

Vice President J.D. Vance cast the tie-breaking vote in the Senate to pass Trump’s controversial "One Big, Beautiful Bill" after a night of intense Republican negotiations. The bill, which faced opposition over Medicaid and food stamp cuts, nearly failed due to concerns from Senator Lisa Murkowski. Trump, in Florida visiting the Alligator Alcatraz Detention Center, received the news mid-trip. Vance declared it a “big win,” while critics, including Elon Musk and Democrats, called it disastrous. Musk has even threatened to form a new party in protest.

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?

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.

Rep. Nancy Mace says the hate Sydney Sweeney is getting for her controversial American Eagle commercial and for being a registered Republican sums up.. TMZ.com
Donald Trump is weighing in on reports that Sydney Sweeney is a registered republican in the wake of her controversial American Eagle jeans campaign. Citing public records, The Guardian reported over the weekend that Sweeney registered with the GOP last June in Florida. The 'Euphoria' actress has not commented on the reports. Trump was asked about the story while taking questions from reporters in Pennsylvania on Sunday. He responded, "She's a registered Republican?! Oh. Now I love her ad! Is that right? Sydney Sweeney ... You'd be surprised at how many people are Republicans. That's what I wouldn't have known, but I'm glad you told me that. If Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican, I think her ad is fantastic."

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.
