Barring a few exceptions, Senate Republicans on Tuesday largely deflected or altogether avoided questions about President Donald Trump’s broad clemency for over 1,500 defendants who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan.

The letter supporting Pam Bondi's nomination to attorney general was previewed exclusively to Fox News Digital and includes support from more than 20 Democrats.

Justice was officially sworn into the United States Senate Tuesday, replacing long-time Democratic Senator Joe Manchin. Justice, who previously served two terms as Governor of West Virginia, was joined by his Republican colleague Senator Shelley Moore Capito on the Senate floor for his swearing in.

Sen. Chris Coons suggested that there might be common ground with Congress and the attorney general to institutionalize reforms to the clemency process.

It is the first full day of President Trump's second term. After the inauguration at the Capitol Rotunda, he signed dozens of executive actions rolling back Democratic policies on immigration, energy, trade, diversity policies and more.

Serving as the nation’s chief law enforcement officer requires independence and sound judgment and the ability to accept court rulings even when you disagree with them.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Pam Bondi, Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general, said she accepted the results of the 2020 election that Trump lost to President Joe Biden but suggested during a confirmation hearing Wednesday that she had witnessed significant problems in Pennsylvania when she traveled to state as an advocate for the Republican’s campaign.

Sen. Marco Rubio, President-elect Donald Trump's pick to lead the State Department as secretary of state, answered questions Wednesday from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

President Trump wasted no time asserting his second-term agenda Monday – signing dozens of executive orders in a flurry of activity that began just moments after taking the oath of office.

The Senate confirmed Senator Marco Rubio, Republican of Florida, on Monday as America’s 72nd secretary of state, putting a former political rival of President Trump at the helm of American diplomacy.

Donald Trump’s attorney general nominee Pam Bondi vowed she would remove politics from the Department of Justice during the first day of her confirmation hearing, though her refusal to answer key questions about Trump’s 2020 election loss and his outspoken desire for retribution raised concerns about how she would execute her promise.

Pam Bondi was pressed about the 2020 election and Trump's influence over the Justice Department, while Marco Rubio struck a more measured tone on the Russia-Ukraine war.
