Fox News: Elon Musk embraces X platform as key tool in DOGE transparency amid onslaught of attacks from Dems
President Donald Trump is leveraging Truth Social for his second term, using it similarly to how he used Twitter in his first term. His posts serve as a direct line to his supporters, announcing policies and engaging in discussions. Meanwhile, Elon Musk, as owner of X, engages a broader audience through political debates and real-time updates about his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Musk's approach contrasts with Trump's, as he actively invites public participation and commentary on government actions, while facing criticism from Democrats. The dynamics between Trump and Musk reflect a shift in political communication, with Musk's platform fostering a more interactive political discourse.
Fox News: House, Senate lawmakers move to slap limits on NGOs aiding illegal immigrants amid Trump funding crackdown
Two lawmakers are introducing bills aimed at limiting the influence of NGOs that allegedly undermine U.S. immigration laws. Rep.

Bill Hagerty's proposal would revoke tax-exempt status for organizations aiding illegal immigrants.
These legislative efforts come amid concerns over the role of NGOs during the migration crisis at the southern border, with claims that they exploit taxpayer funds. The Trump administration is also reviewing federal funding to NGOs, asserting that many operate in Mexico to facilitate illegal immigration.
