LOS ANGELES — The Federal Communications Commission is taking aim at broadcast networks’ late-night and daytime talk shows, including ABC’s “The View,” which often feature politicians as guests. With the new guidance, FCC appears to take a dim view of whether late-night and daytime talk shows deserve an exemption from the “equal time” rules for stations that transmit programming over the public airwaves. There’s a difference between a “bona fide” news interview and partisan politics, the FCC said. Recently, “The View” featured former U.S. Rep.

In several instances, Trump framed the transatlantic alliance as one that benefits other countries more than the United States.

The Supreme Court gave a skeptical hearing Wednesday to President Trump’s claim that he has the power, acting alone, to fire Federal Reserve Board governor Lisa Cook for a past mistake on a mortgage application. Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh told Trump’s lawyer he had overplayed his hand. He has clashed with Federal Reserve Board Chairman Jerome H. Powell and threatened to fire him. But Roberts and the conservatives were also ready to make an exception for the Federal Reserve Board. Under your position, it doesn’t make a difference, right?”Sauer had argued the courts could not review Trump’s decision to fire a Federal Reserve Board governor.

Trump tells CNN that 'everybody's very happy with' Greenland framework dealPresident Donald Trump stopped short of saying his new framework deal for Greenland would include US ownership of the island.
