MICK MULVANEY

During his early years in the House, Rep. Jordan pressured Republican leaders to move to the right. Now as Judiciary Chairman, he is a key architect in Speaker McCarthy's oversight agenda this year.

The House Republicans aren't new deficit hawks. They aren’t opposed to racking up debt; they just want to be the ones doing it.

Former Trump acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney told Yahoo News Tuesday he could not wrap his head around the intransigence on display from nearly two dozen House Republicans who voted three times in a row to block Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., from becoming the next House Speaker.

Democrats in the House are moving swiftly to wrap up key investigations involving Trump before Republicans take control of the chamber.

The Biden administration has named former Rep. Joe Kennedy III as America's special envoy to Northern Ireland.

Some Republicans are concerned that the former president will damage the party's prospects in 2024 as he is too divisive.

Mick Mulvaney, who has described Trump as a "terrible human being," called for a new generation of Republican leaders as the GOP underperformed in Tuesday's elections.

"One politician didn't get us into this problem. One politician isn't going to get us out," said Trump's White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney.

Mick Mulvaney told CNN that a search warrant should have only been used if there was evidence the documents might be revealed or destroyed.

Former National Security Advisor John Bolton told CNN that Trump's latest declassification defense is "complete fiction."

"If you know where the safe is and you know the documents are in 10 boxes in the basement, you're pretty close to the president," said Mulvaney.

Mulvaney resigned from his post as special envoy to Northern Ireland after the riot.

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol has issued a subpoena to a former Justice Department lawyer who positioned himself as an ally of Donald Trump and aided the Republican president’s efforts to challenge the results of the 2020 election.

The latest round of subpoenas from the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection may help uncover the degree to which former President Donald Trump, his campaign and White House were involved in planning the rally that preceded the riot.

The former cultural core of the GOP is exiting the party. The Democrats should keep those voters in their corner. Here’s how to do it.

Hiring at the Kansas City site remains well below the roughly 550 high-paying jobs local leaders had anticipated. However, he said those frustrations have dealt more with reports published by other USDA agencies, and that some farmers may be confusing them. For example, a two-year research project on pollinators such as honeybees was shelved because the entire team working on it left the agency rather than move to Kansas City. In October 2016 — before Trump's first year in office — ERS had 318 permanent employees, according to USDA data. “And here in the United States, what we do with groups like that — we can’t send them to Siberia, so we send them to Kansas City.”

Rohit Chopra, President Joe Biden's nominee to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Student loansUnder Biden, the consumer bureau is expected to exercise greater enforcement of the rules on student loan servicing. Advocates have criticized student loan servicers for misleading borrowers and steering them into more expensive repayment plans. The consumer bureau will likely also take a harder stance against for-profit schools that have been known to prey on vulnerable students and make unrealistic promises.

President-elect Joe Biden is set to nominate Rohit Chopra as the director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, tapping a progressive ally of Sen. Elizabeth Warren to helm the agency whose creation she championed. Gensler, a former Goldman Sachs banker, tightened oversight of the complex financial transactions that helped cause the Great Recession. Consumer and investor advocate groups praised the selections of Gensler and Chopra. Mulvaney had been a vocal critic of the consumer agency and made deep changes to it, softening regulations on payday loans, for example, and pulling back on enforcement efforts. As one of two Democratic commissioners on the five-member Federal Trade Commission, Chopra has been an outspoken critic of practices by big companies, especially tech giant Facebook.

WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump said Friday he will skip President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, refusing to fulfill the outgoing president's traditional role in the peaceful transition of power and undercutting his own message just one day earlier on the need for “national healing and unity." Historian Douglas Brinkley said that while attending the inauguration “would be a wonderful olive branch to the country,” he wasn't surprised by the decision. “Donald Trump doesn’t want to be in Washington as the second-fiddle loser standing on stage with Joe Biden,” he said. “To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th,” Trump said in a tweet. White House counsel Pat Cipollone has repeatedly warned Trump that he could be deemed responsible for inciting Wednesday’s violence.

FILE - In this Oct. 15, 2020, file photo, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos speaks at the Phoenix International Academy in Phoenix. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao on Thursday became the highest-ranking administration officials to resign over the pro-Trump insurrection. Neither impeachment nor ouster under the 25th Amendment was considered probable with less than two weeks left in Trump's presidency. Yet many White House aides, both senior officials and lower-level staff, were struggling with whether or when to exit, according to two people familiar with internal deliberations at the White House. “They’re all going to have their historic revisionism, they’re all going to have their own imaginary heroism,” Wilson said.

Education Secretary Betsy DeVos announced her resignation Thursday night in the wake of the assault on the U.S. Capitol. Her resignation came hours after Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, the wife of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, announced her resignation, effective Monday. Chao and DeVos are both members of Mr. Trump's Cabinet, and President-elect Joe Biden had already announced his choices to replace them. "The president has long disregarded and diminished the rule of law and the constitution," said Costello, the deputy assistant secretary of commerce for intelligence and security. "Yesterday, that culminated in violent sedition against the U.S. Congress for the purposes of overturning a legally recognized and valid election."

WASHINGTON – With 13 days left in his term, President Donald Trump finally bent to reality Thursday amid growing talk of trying to force him out early, acknowledging he’ll peacefully leave after Congress affirmed his defeat. Trump led off a video from the White House by condemning the violence carried out in his name a day earlier at the Capitol. Deprived of that social media lifeblood, Trump remained silent and ensconced in the executive mansion until Thursday evening. Staff-level discussions on the matter took place across multiple departments and even in parts of the White House, according to two people briefed on the talks. Few aides had any sense of the president’s plans, with some wondering if Trump would largely remain out of sight until he left the White House.

WASHINGTON – Donald Trump, who defied political gravity with his extraordinary rise from reality star and businessman to the presidency, has fallen back to earth. “When Donald Trump loses there will never be a peaceful transition to power,” said Trump’s longtime lawyer and fixer-turned-critic Michael Cohen. And Trump squandered it,” he said, arguing that Trump would likely be seen as “an insurgent figure,” even though 25% of the American public “will always see Donald Trump as their Rambo and John Wayne figure combined." Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., has become a particular favorite with the president’s loyal supporters on the campaign trail, meaning the Trump name could endure. Many of Trump’s supporters see his influence continuing.

Press Secretary Stephanie Grisham, who has been quarantined since coming in contact with Brazilian officials almost two weeks ago and working from home, has received negative COVID-19 test results and will be back to work tomorrow, White House spokesman Judd Deere said. Bolsonaros press secretary Fabio Wajngarten was the aide who tested positive and was at the Mar-a-Lago event.

Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney (R) and Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) talk as they wait for U.S. President Donald Trump to speak to the media, one day after the U.S. Senate acquitted on two articles of impeachment, in the East Room of the White House February 6, 2020 in Washington, DC. President Trump on Friday named Representative Mark Meadows his White House chief of staff, replacing Mick Mulvaney. Trump said that Mulvaney will become the United States special envoy for Northern Ireland. Trump and other officials had denied seeking a quid pro quo of any kind regarding Ukraine. The GOP-controlled Senate voted to acquit Trump on two impeachment articles: abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

Mick Mulvaney, President Trumps third and least powerful chief of staff, was replaced Friday by North Carolina Rep. Mark Meadows, an announcement Trump made in an evening tweet. But Trump, who prefers to keep staffers on a short leash, never gave Mulvaney the formal title of chief of staff, calling him acting chief of staff throughout his tenure. Its the fact that this president has never been interested in having an empowered chief of staff, Whipple continued. Before working for Trump, Mulvaney as a South Carolina congressman made his name in the fiscally conservative tea party movement. In addition to serving as budget chief, Mulvaney also took on the role of acting director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for more than a year.

(AP Photo/Susan Walsh)WASHINGTON, D.C. – A top aide to President Donald Trump complained Friday that the news media doesn't pay enough attention to the president's loving relationship with his 13-year-old son, Barron. The first lady's office has requested that the media respect the privacy of the youngest of the president's five children and discourages writing about him. Her office declined to comment on Mulvaney's remarks.

REUTERS/Joshua RobertsThe reason youre seeing so much attention to it today is that they think this is going to be what brings down the President. Thats what this is all about, Mulvaney said at a meeting of the Conservative Political Action Conference, where Republican Party superstars and right wing media personalities gather each year. Mulvaneys characterization of media coverage of the virus came as the S&P 500 was headed for its worst week since the Great Recession. Goldman Sachs said on Wednesday that economic impacts from the virus could threaten Trumps chances of re-election. This is something we know how to deal with, said Mulvaney.

That assertion could undercut a key defense argument — that Trump never tied the suspension of security aid to political investigations. Bolton writes that Trump told him he wanted to withhold security aid from Ukraine until it helped with investigations. Trump's legal team has insisted otherwise, and Trump tweeted Monday that he never told Bolton such a thing. “I NEVER told John Bolton that the aid to Ukraine was tied to investigations into Democrats, including the Bidens," Trump said. They are being told that if there is agreement to summon Bolton, the White House will resist, claiming executive privilege.

Earlier in the summer, most members and aides hadn't raised a red flag on Ukraine aid. And, it was after that fight was over, members began to wonder why military aid to Ukraine still had not gone out. At the end of August, Politico reported millions in military aid to Ukraine was still being slow-walked. Ukraine military aid was a rare, foreign policy issue that united members of both parties. Graham announced the Trump administration had finally released the military aid for Ukraine.
