(AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin) President Donald Trump lashed out at the four Republican congressmen who joined Democrats to pass a war powers resolution on Wednesday — in a stunning rebuke to the president. In a post to his Truth Social platform on Thursday morning, the president tried to downplay the resolution and proceeded to blast the four Republicans — Reps. Tom Barrett (MI), Warren Davidson (OH), Brian Fitzpatrick (PA), and frequent critic Thomas Massie (KY). “Yesterday, in a meaningless vote, the House voted, 4 bad Republicans and all of the Dumocrats, to limit my War Powers, right in the middle of my final negotiations to end the War with the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Trump wrote. “Who would do such an unpatriotic thing. They know where the negotiations stand. The Democrats are fueled by Trump Derangement Syndrome. They would rather have our Country fail than give me another, of many, victories. The four Republicans, that’s a whole other story – They’re GRANDSTANDERS! They should be ashamed of themselves.” The resolution — which, if enacted, would direct the president to withdraw forces from Iran — passed by a 215-208 margin in the house. The resolution now heads to the Senate, but even if passed, it would certainly face a veto from Trump — and the Senate would almost certainly not have the votes to overcome that veto. Still, the passage in the House is an extremely rare rebuke of Trump’s handling of the war. Republican leadership had tried to delay the vote several weeks ago when they saw they could not defeat the measure, but the War Powers Resolution requires such measures be taken up within a short time frame — forcing the vote on Wednesday. ——The post Trump Lashes Out at ‘4 Bad Republicans’ Who Crossed Him on Shocking War Powers Vote: ‘They’re GRANDSTANDERS!’ first appeared on Mediaite.

Kuwaiti authorities released dramatic footage that they claim shows the moment an Iranian drone struck the country’s international airport on Wednesday, an attack that killed one person and injured dozens. The video, published by officials on Wednesday, appears to capture the drone landing in a massive explosion that rips through part of the airport complex as smoke billows into the air. Kuwaiti officials said one person was killed and more than 60 others were injured in the attack. The deceased was later identified as an Indian citizen. India’s foreign ministry condemned the strike and confirmed that several other Indian nationals were among the wounded. Kuwait’s defense ministry described the incident as “criminal Iranian aggression” but Iran has denied responsibility. In a statement, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed the destruction was caused by a malfunction involving a U.S. missile interceptor rather than an Iranian strike. That claim was rejected by U.S. Central Command, which accused Tehran of carrying out a “deliberate, calculated and unjustified attack” on the airport. Earlier, the IRGC said it had targeted U.S. military facilities across the Gulf in retaliation for U.S. strikes on an Iranian oil tanker and Iran’s Qeshm Island. Washington said its operations were conducted in “self-defence” and claimed U.S. forces intercepted or shot down Iranian missiles aimed at Kuwait and Bahrain. The latest confrontation comes during an already-fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, as the two countries negotiate an end to the conflict.

(AP Photo/Richard Drew, File) Veteran CBS correspondent Steve Kroft warned that the 60 Minutes viewers have known for decades “no longer exists” as he argued the news magazine has been fundamentally altered after a slew of firings. Kroft, who spent three decades at 60 Minutes before retiring in 2019, spoke to New York Magazine for an interview published on Thursday, just days after the tumultuous dismissal of correspondent Scott Pelley after a fierce clash with the show’s new executive producer Nick Bilton at his first team meeting. Pelley’s exit was just one of several in recent months that impacted the show’s executive and reporting teams. “I think basically 60 Minutes, as the audience has known it, no longer exists,” Kroft said. “The firings are too substantial.” He continued: “All of the people involved are very good journalists, and the new management, [CBS News editor-in-chief] Bari Weiss and [Paramount CEO] David Ellison, have made it clear they want to go to a completely different format, model, call it what you want. They thought that what 60 Minutes was doing had become outdated and old and musty and needed to be changed, in spite of the fact that the audience has gone up 9 percent in the last year.” The former correspondent said, given the upheaval, he struggled to envision what the show will look like when it returns in the fall. “It seems almost impossible for me to imagine what kind of a show they can put on in September,” Kroft added. Kroft traced the current crisis back to President Donald Trump’s lawsuit against CBS News over the editing of a 2024 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris. Paramount, CBS’s parent company, later settled the case while seeking regulatory approval for its merger with Skydance. According to Kroft, that dispute marked the beginning of a broader conflict over editorial independence at the network. “There was the intimidation factor,” he said. “People had become extremely nervous about what kinds of stories they could suggest, what kinds of stories they could work on, and how any story that would be critical of the Trump administration would face major obstacles to getting on the air.” Kroft argued that “what made 60 Minutes great” was that the show’s team was “unafraid to take on the government.” “It’s very difficult for me to imagine a world without 60 Minutes, or a show like 60 Minutes, which… [TheTopNews] Read More.4 hours ago - New Fox News Poll Shows GOP Senator Trailing Democrat in State Trump Won by 11 P...
Screenshots via Jon Husted and Sherrod Brown on Facebook. President Donald Trump won the state of Ohio by solid margins all three times he has run for president, but in 2026, his abysmal polls seem to be dragging down the incumbent Republican senator’s fortunes for this November’s ballot. Trump beat Hillary Clinton in Ohio by over eight points in 2016, lost the 2020 election overall but beat Joe Biden in Ohio by over eight points, and then improved his margin in the Buckeye State in 2024 to beat then-Vice President Kamala Harris by over 11 points. Sen. Jon Husted (R-OH) was appointed to the Senate in 2025 when JD Vance became vice president. He previously served as Ohio’s lieutenant governor, secretary of state, a state senator, speaker of the Ohio House, and a state representative. This year, he is running in a special election in November to fill the remainder of Vance’s Senate term, which will be up for re-election in 2028. Challenging Husted is former Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), who was first elected to the Senate in 2006 and served until he was defeated by Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) in 2024. Before he was in the Senate, Brown represented Ohio’s 13th congressional district, and previously served as Ohio secretary of state and several years in the state house. The polling numbers for Trump and the GOP have been brutal as his second term has progressed, with his immigration crackdown cratering his support, the handling of the Epstein files getting abysmal marks, and even Americans’ views on his handling of the economy and inflation taking body blows. The president’s social media posts and public comments about the Iran war sparked new negative chatter, with reporters openly asking him about his “mental health” and critics accusing him of advocating for war crimes. With the midterm elections coming up in November, majority control of the House and Senate is on the line, and both Democrats and Republicans have been strategizing to defend their at-risk seats while seizing opportunities to flip others. A new Fox News poll taken from May 28 to June 1 reveals that Trump’s favorability in Ohio “has deteriorated,” to Brown’s benefit. The survey was conducted among registered voters in Ohio “randomly selected from a statewide voter file” by live phone calls on landlines and cell phones or online after responding to a text message. The full sample has a… [TheTopNews] Read More.4 hours ago
