President Donald Trump's latest threat to shut the government is just the most recent indication that he is unfit and unprepared for the office. The notion that the president of the United States would purposefully imperil services to taxpayers if Congress doesn't approve $1.6 billion for his Mexico border wall would be far-fetched, if a credible person occupied the White House.

President Trump this week bad-mouthed Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Paul Ryan and Arizona Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake. How long will the backbiting between the White House and Capitol Hill continue?

President Donald Trump along with top GOP lawmakers have proposed ending what they call the death tax -- a 40 percent levy that's applied to estates worth more than $5.49 million for individuals and $10.98 million for married couples.

With the federal government getting closer to running out of cash to cover all bills on time, companies that evaluate bonds are having to consider how to rate America's creditworthiness. And their job didn't get any easier on Thursday when President Trump continued his attacks on congressional leaders over their failure to raise the federal debt ceiling.
Sen. Jeff Flake said Thursday he won't be able to say whether he'd vote to fund President Donald Trump's wall along the US-Mexico border until he knows whether the president wants to build a single brick-and-mortar structure or instead erect a combination of fencing and other barriers. The president threatened earlier this week at a rally in Phoenix to shut down the federal government unless the gridlocked Congress agrees to build a border wall.

In a report released Thursday, Aug. 24, 2017, federal investigators released a report that says Love took valuable stones held as evidence and distributed them "like candy" to colleagues and a contractor.
After Steve Bannon departed the White House on August 14, he contacted The Weekly Standard to make a bold proclamation. "The Trump presidency that we fought for, and won, is over," the administration's now-former chief strategist said.
Sen. Bob Corker refuses to say whether he'll seek a third term, but he has carefully said and done all the right things to avoid provoking a spirited primary challenge next year. The Tennessee Republican has limited public appearances back home largely to friendly civic clubs and chambers of commerce meetings, where he can regale members with tales of his pro-business agenda and blunt assessments of congressional dysfunction - all the while steering clear of direct criticism of President Donald Trump.

CHICAGO U.S. Senators Dick Durbin and Tammy Duckworth today announced that the U.S. Department of Labor awarded six local community colleges and non-profits in Illinois a total of $6,501,644 million through YouthBuild, a job-training and educational program for at-risk youth ages 16 to 24. Through YouthBuild, at-risk youth learn construction skills while constructing or rehabilitating affordable housing for low-income or homeless families in their own communities. Program participants split their time between the construction site and the classroom, where they earn their high school diploma or equivalency degree, learn to be community leaders, and prepare for college and other postsecondary training opportunities.

It's a marked departure from Trump's instinct to manage around Kelly's predecessor, Reince Priebus.
