AXIOS (Kate Santaliz) - House GOP's parting message for Senate on reconciliation

House GOP leaders are turning up the heat on Senate Republicans, calling on them to move quickly on the House's $95 billion reconciliation package despite resistance from Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.). Why it matters: Before they split town, House leaders left some instructions for their Senate colleagues. - "The Senate needs to move on reconciliation before November, and I think the pressure from the American people is going to be unbearable if they refuse to act," NRCC Chair Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) told Axios on Thursday. - "For the Senate to sit on their hands and do nothing, I think, will be unsustainable." Driving the news: Thune poured cold water on the House's timeline, telling reporters this week that he plans to wait…

How has the White House responded to the situation regarding Senator Thune and the SAVE Act?
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated during a press briefing on Thursday that President Trump's "patience is running out" with Thune regarding the SAVE Act.

Why does House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) believe Senate Republicans cannot use the filibuster to block the SAVE Act within the reconciliation package?

YOUTUBE (NewsNation) - Has AI Become Too Powerful to Control? | Hot Take with Jesse Weber

▶️

For decades, Hollywood warned us about artificial intelligence — from "2001: A Space Odyssey" to "The Terminator" to "The Matrix." Now, some of the people building the world's most advanced AI are asking a question that sounds straight out of science fiction: Has AI become too powerful to control? Tuesday’s "Hot Take with Jesse Weber" breaks down a stunning development: OpenAI says two of its experimental models, during an internal cybersecurity test, "escaped" a sealed sandbox environment, exploited a software vulnerability, and worked their way onto real company servers — all without being told to. The company called it an "unprecedented" cyber incident. Security systems detected and stopped the activity before it went further. Are…

THENATIONALPULSE (Pulse Wires) - Houthi Strikes on Saudi Tankers Send Oil Prices Past $100.

Houthi attacks on Saudi vessels in the Red Sea have further restricted the global oil supply, causing prices to surge and prompting President Trump to threaten military action in Yemen.

PULSE POINTS WHAT HAPPENED: Houthi militants allied with Iran claim to have struck two Saudi Arabian-flagged tankers in the Red Sea, causing oil prices to pass $100 a barrel for the first time since May. The Red Sea had become a significant alternative trade route for global oil, natural gas, and fertilizer supplies after Iran had largely closed down the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald J. Trump has threatened expanded military action against both Iran and the Houthis if further attacks occur. KEY QUOTE: “A year ago the United States of America attacked, very powerfully, the Houthis, for their interference with commerce and trade, by shooting at ships. Since that time, and during our conflict with Iran, they have acted very…Open

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, formally referred former Special Counsel Jack Smith to the Department of Justice for potential criminal prosecution on Wednesday.  The referral accuses Smith of making “willfully and intentionally false statements” during a closed-door deposition before the committee on December 17, 2025. Jordan’s letter to Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche cites “strong evidence” that Smith’s testimony contradicted newly obtained documents regarding his team’s access to congressional communications in the Trump investigations. The allegation centers on Smith’s responses about whether his office subpoenaed or reviewed text messages from members of Congress. In the…Open

How did Jack Smith's legal team respond to the criminal referral from Rep. Jim Jordan?
Smith's legal team rejected the allegations, stating that the referral "reflects a chilling eagerness to weaponize the justice system" and maintained that Smith answered truthfully.

What were the two high-profile federal cases led by Jack Smith against Donald Trump?

How were the text messages involving 44 lawmakers and Trump officials obtained according to the documents released by Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans?
The documents, which include information from Sen. Chuck Grassley, show that the messages were obtained as presidential records from the National Archives, rather than through direct subpoenas of the members' phones.
Q&A ID 00160ccb-a806-492f-b777-04af2f13bcd2
What specific allegations were made against Jack Smith regarding his testimony on December 17, 2025?
The allegation is that Smith provided "half-truths" and intentionally false statements regarding whether his office subpoenaed or reviewed text messages from members of Congress. While Smith testified that his team had not received the contents of phone calls or text messages from lawmakers and described records as limited “tolling” data, documents obtained by Senate Judiciary Committee Republicans show his investigators reviewed the content of text messages involving 44 lawmakers and Trump officials.
