Fox News: Trump's third term trial balloon gets resounding response in new poll
President Donald Trump has hinted at a potential 2028 run for a third term, despite the U.S. Constitution prohibiting it. He has stated that serving multiple terms would be an honor, but a recent poll reveals that a significant majority of Americans, including 53% of Republicans, oppose his candidacy.
The 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, limits presidents to two terms, a response to Franklin D. Roosevelt's four-term presidency. Public sentiment is clear, with three-quarters of respondents in a recent survey indicating they do not want Trump to seek a third term.

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer has referred former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo to the Trump Justice Department for criminal prosecution, alleging he made false statements to Congress regarding his handling of COVID-19 nursing home deaths. Cuomo, a Democratic mayoral candidate, was previously referred to the Biden Justice Department.
Comer claims Cuomo engaged in a cover-up to evade responsibility for nursing home fatalities, asserting that lying to Congress is a federal crime. Cuomo's spokesperson dismissed the referral as politically motivated, suggesting it lacks merit and is part of a pattern of election interference.

The judge found no evidence of such attempts while under house arrest.
The two are suspected of multiple offenses related to their work for a pro-Qatar lobbying firm, with additional inquiries into a third aide in Serbia. Netanyahu has accused police of conducting a politically motivated investigation, claiming he is a victim of a "deep state" plot.

Front Page Magazine: Trade MS-13 Members for Members of Congress
Some members of Congress are advocating for the return of MS-13 gang members deported to El Salvador, suggesting a potential trade-off. The commentary humorously proposes swapping these gang members for certain congressional representatives, arguing that both groups pose significant risks to society.
The piece highlights the absurdity of Congress's desire to bring back gang members while questioning the value they add compared to the dangers posed by politicians. It suggests that if Congress members truly want MS-13 back, they should consider relocating to El Salvador instead.
