President Trump is claiming exoneration after special counsel Robert Mueller found no evidence he conspired with Russia. But Trump opponents aren’t ready to concede there was no “collusion” as they prepare to challenge the president in 2020.

Border control agencies are already reviewing ways to slow down immigration processing at the border. A senior Homeland Security official confirmed on Friday that shutting down…

Special counsel Robert Mueller managed to attract a cult-like following over the past two years among Americans eager to see President Trump’s downfall. Despite remaining largely silent during his investigation into possible Russian collusion by the president, Mueller became a hero among many members of the Trump #Resistance, who desperately hoped the special counsel would find enough evidence to make a case for impeachment. But it might be time for…

President Trump held his first rally since mid-February on Thursday in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
