In his address to the nation, President Trump claimed “regime change has occurred” in Iran.
But the Iranian leaders who have been promoted to replace those killed in U.S. and Israeli strikes are generally just as ideological or more so than their predecessors.

Donald Trump promised almost a year ago that he'd "take care" of rebuilding after the Los Angeles firestorms, but survivors are still waiting for him to officially ask Congress for relief.
It's long past time for Trump to wake up and do his job.

If the Supreme Court strikes down Section 2 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, which has been interpreted to require the creation of majority-minority districts, Republicans could eliminate upward of a dozen Democratic-held districts across the South. Here's how.

Democrats would be in danger of losing around a dozen majority-minority districts across the South if the court struck down part of the Voting Rights Act.
