Thursday on CNN’s “News Central,” Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump thinks he is “the commander of the world.” Garamendi said, “Bottom line of it is, the president does some really strange things. He thinks he is the commander of the world. He also thinks he’s a dictator here in the United States. And he can do anything he wants to do. And the Congress and the courts are basically catch-me-if-you-can. We’re going to try to catch him this afternoon, which is why we believe that this War Powers Resolution, which basically pulls back to Congress the power…

Wednesday on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle,” Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) spoke favorably of the Trump administration’s Iran policy. He said while there were no guarantees, there was the possibility for positive change. “[T]he security situation for the homeland because of what is happening now in Iran is more serious, so we’re more vulnerable because Biden left the border open, and they still hold up DHS funding,” host Laura Ingraham said. “And on the issue of Iran, Senator, the Senate failed to pass Senator Kaine’s war powers resolution. You voted against it. Senator Paul was the only Republican who voted for…

At a certain point, the British elite even tried to manage the process in a way that would make it less traumatic for the metropolis. The end of empire carried obvious economic and reputational costs. Yet it also produced a deeper political dilemma. With the empire dismantled, what remained was ‘Little England’, a country with vast ambitions but far fewer resources to fulfill them.For the British establishment, finding a new international role became an urgent task. Few people embodied this dilemma more clearly than Winston Churchill. He…

During Wednesday’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) explained his support for the U.S. strikes against Iran, and why his Democrat colleagues were against it. Fetterman said many Democrats were “afraid” to agree with President Donald Trump on anything, which is why some Democrats were so outspoken against the strikes. “All right, Senator, you go to these classified briefings with your colleagues,” host Jesse Watters said. “Why are Democrats running out of the briefing and screaming that this is a Forever War, and it’s only Wednesday.” Fetterman replied, “Yes, well, I mean, I just…

The U.S. economy lost 92,000 jobs in February and the unemployment rate rose to 4.4 percent, the Labor Department said Friday. Economists had forecast the economy would add 50,000 jobs and a steady unemployment rate at 4.3 percent. The prior month’s employment gain was adjusted down to 126,000 from 130,000. The labor market in the U.S. has experienced a significant shift away from dependence on an immigration-driven workforce. Jobs numbers that may seem anemic compared with recent years may actually indicate healthy—even robust—growth under current conditions, according to economists. Many economists now estimate the so-called “break-even” rate of job growth—the…
