What’s happening with Marjorie Taylor Greene? Why the Maga loyalist has won some Democratic fans | Marjorie Taylor Greene

For years she was one of Donald Trump’s most loyal foot soldiers. Marjorie Taylor Greene trafficked in racist statements, indicated support for executing Democrats and even floated conspiracy theories about Jewish space lasers. Beneath a red “Make America great again” cap she became an instantly recognisable face of the Maga movement. Yet in recent months the Georgia congresswoman has surprised friend and foe alike. On issues ranging from healthcare to Gaza to the Jeffrey Epstein files, she has broken ranks with Republicans and won unlikely fans among Democrats. The streak of independence has stirred speculation about her motives – and

Outdated intel likely led to deadly U.S. strike on Iranian elementary school, sources say

The ongoing investigation has so far found that the munition did not go off target, but rather hit the school because old intelligence showed it to be a military target, the four sources said. Witnesses and an Iranian Education Ministry official said previously that the school was located on a compound that was a base for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps until about 15 years ago. The two sources said the Defense Intelligence Agency was one of the agencies responsible for providing targeting information that could have led to the school strike, though other sources likely contributed to verifying the

Trump announced the pause in attacks on April 7. In a fresh statement on Sunday, Trump said negotiators had made progress on several points

U.S. says Strait of Hormuz blockade will start Monday after Iran peace talks stumble

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday the U.S. navy would start blockading the Strait of Hormuz, raising the stakes after marathon talks with Iran failed to reach a deal to end the war, jeopardizing a fragile two-week ceasefire. The U.S. Central Command said U.S. forces would begin implementing the blockade of all maritime traffic entering and exiting Iranian ports at ‌10 a.m. ET on Monday. It would be “enforced impartially against vessels of all nations entering or departing Iranian ports and coastal areas, including all Iranian ports on the Arabian Gulf and Gulf of Oman,” a CENTCOM statement on X said. U.S. forces would not impede freedom

Trump family dealings may forever break taboo on US presidents profiting from office

NEW YORK (AP) — For decades, American presidents avoided even the appearance of profiting from their office. Harry Truman refused to lend his name to any business, even in retirement. Richard Nixon so feared a brother might profit off their ties, he had his phone tapped. And George W. Bush dumped his individual stock holdings before taking office. US President Donald Trump is taking a different approach. The family real estate business is undergoing the fastest overseas expansion since its founding a century ago, each deal potentially shaping everything from tariffs to military aid. Led by Eric Trump and his

U.S. will begin blockading ships in Strait of Hormuz on Monday after Iran talks yield no deal

Michael Leiter, the Israeli ambassador to the U.S., disputed reporting Sunday about a White House meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that preceded the war. “This whole thing about the prime minister coming in and dragging the president into this, it’s all, you know, for publicity purposes,” Leiter said on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan.” The New York Times reported last week that Netanyahu pitched President Trump on bombing Iran in a Feb. 11 visit to the White House, forecasting that a joint effort between Israel and the U.S. could bring an end to the Islamic Republic.  According
