‘A win for humanity’: Trump’s asylum ban at US-Mexico border ruled unlawful

Republican leaders are scrambling to rally reluctant members of their own party ahead of a high-stakes vote on Trump’s sweeping legislative package. The House Freedom Caucus, a group of hardline conservatives, is threatening to derail the bill—so GOP leaders are pulling out all the stops, including a White House meeting, to get them on board.

Trump's massive tax and spending bill, dubbed the "big beautiful bill," just squeaked through the Senate with a tie-breaking vote from JD Vance. Now it heads to the House, where the vote is expected to be razor-thin. The legislation could reshape taxes and federal spending in a big way—if it survives the next hurdle.

House Republicans are gearing up to fight against the Senate's recently passed spending bill, which only squeaked through with Vice President JD Vance breaking the tie. Both conservative hardliners and more moderate GOP members are trashing the legislation, calling it bloated and problematic. Now, the bill heads back to the House, where it faces an uphill battle.

House Republicans are gearing up for a crucial vote on Donald Trump's major tax-and-spending bill, with Speaker Johnson pushing hard to rally support and fend off internal GOP dissent. The bill, a key part of Trump's policy agenda, has faced hurdles after Senate modifications, but Johnson insists they’ll "get it over the line."

Vivek Ramaswamy, the former GOP presidential hopeful turned Ohio gubernatorial candidate, has pulled in a hefty $9.7 million in donations since jumping into the race four months ago. That’s a serious war chest for someone who only entered the state-level political scene earlier this year after ending his White House bid.

Editor’s Note: Money talks in politics, and Ramaswamy’s fundraising haul signals he’s a contender—or at least someone donors are willing to bet on. Whether this cash translates to voter support in Ohio’s crowded GOP field is the real question. It also hints at his staying power post-presidential campaign, showing he’s not fading from the political spotlight anytime soon.
