Video Pelosi reportedly facing revolt from progressive Democrats over border funding bill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reportedly had a tense meeting with Democrats who feel the emergency border funding bill does not do enough to address the humanitarian crisis. A coalition of moderate Democrats and Republicans approved crucial border funding legislation late Thursday in the House, sending the $4.6 billion bill to President Trump’s desk for his expected signature — after Speaker Nancy Pelosi backed down from…

Ever since Congress extended permanent normal trade relations to China nearly 20 years ago, pro-China pundits have argued that increased trade and engagement with Beijing would cause the communist regime to open up and embrace Democratic values. But China’s behavior hasn’t changed at all. To the contrary, Beijing has become more authoritarian and more adversarial. In fact, doing business with China has changed us more than it’s changed them. The…

President Trump says he has asked government lawyers if they can delay the 2020 census, after the Supreme Court ruled Thursday morning that the Trump administration cannot use it to ask census takers if they are citizens of the U.S.  The Supreme Court ruled that the proposed citizenship question won’t be added because the explanation for doing so is insufficient. “[W]e cannot ignore the disconnect between the decision made and…

There is a humanitarian crisis at our border. A record number of individuals are crossing our border, overwhelming entry points and causing a massive backlog in processing and courtroom hearings. That includes 56,278 unaccompanied minors so far in fiscal 2019, up 74% year over year. As of early June, the Department of Health and Human Services had more than 13,200 minors in custody. Yet, for months, Democrats have refused to…

“So at that point I just urged all the parties to be calm, let’s de-escalate this thing, don’t escalate, because that’s obviously the most dangerous situation at the moment is somebody decides they’re going to dial this thing up,” he added. Mr. Tillerson was also asked why no note-taker was present for a July 2017 meeting between Mr. Trump and President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia in Hamburg, Germany. The…

Acting in secret, emails and testimony show, Ohio Republicans designed the current congressional map in 2011 with a specific purpose in mind – to all-but-guarantee results of each election by creating 12 safe Republican districts and four for the Democrats. This was done by packing as many Democrats as possible into as few districts as possible. Bob Bennett, former Ohio Republican Party chairman, told The Plain Dealer ahead of 2001…

The first Democratic presidential debate featured random monologues in Spanish, a testy debate between Tulsi Gabbard and Tim Ryan, and almost no mention of the candidate polling better than everyone else in the Democratic field: Joe Biden. The challengers were reticent to mention the front-runner (why didn’t the moderators bring him up?) instead choosing to make an affirmative case for their own agenda and Trump #resistance bona fides. But Biden…

The Democratic debates seemed set up to be a disaster: Too many people on stage with too much to discuss. Instead, Wednesday night was a moment of hope in the midst of a deep political depression. Regardless of your political views, the first debate, featuring 10 candidates, was reassuring and even inspiring. All 10 people on stage were (for the most part) cogent, competent, serious, and passionate. It’s a shame…

Beto O’Rourke was asked a straightforward question by MSNBC host Savannah Guthrie during the Democratic debate about what top marginal tax rate he would support. Naturally, O’Rourke ignored it entirely. In his usual pretentious and hand-wavy style, the former Texas congressman sidestepped the question, instead launching into a long monologue about wealth inequality and an “economy that is rigged for corporations and the very wealthy.” Yet he knew he couldn’t…

Well, Ross, we can argue about Mueller on the podcast after July 17. As for tonight, as someone who wakes up in the middle of the night worrying about this primary, I feel pretty good. I still think Warren is on the rise, and nothing happened to humiliate the party. How about you two?

WASHINGTON (AP) — This was no Trump rally. Ten Democrats kicked off the presidential debate season with a sober rendering of policy that featured a smattering of missteps on climate change, the economy and more but no whoppers. The Democrats spoke largely in generalities Wednesday night and when they got into the nuts and bolts, their claims largely checked out. But not always. A look at the rhetoric from the…
