Republicans panicking after Trump 'cut their legs out' with slush fund move: CNN
President Donald Trump gave Republicans another reason to pull their hair out on Wednesday after he refused to confirm whether he would pursue a controversial move that has received a lot of blowback. Trump has teased establishing a $1.776 billion fund to pay people who claim that they were wrongfully prosecuted by the government. The fund would have been established as part of a settlement of a private lawsuit Trump filed against the IRS in 2019 over his leaked tax returns. The fund received blowback after several of Trump's allies said they would seek restitution. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told Congress repeatedly on Tuesday that the administration was abandoning the fund. But Trump refused to confirm that plan when asked during a press gaggle on Wednesday, which seemed to spook some Republicans, according to CNN's Manu Raju. "This is just another example where Republicans want to pull their hair out on Capitol Hill," Raju told Kaitlan Collins on "The Source." "A perfectly laid plan, so they thought, until Trump comes out and says something else and completely cuts their legs from underneath them."

Republican barred from speaking after 'butcher' remark attacking Dem colleague
A House debate over Rep. Rashida Tlaib's (D-MI) resolution to withdraw U.S. troops from Lebanon devolved into personal attacks Wednesday night when embattled Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) accused the Detroit Democrat of "advocating for terrorists on a daily basis."Miller, who has faced his own controversies, including domestic abuse allegations from his ex-wife, said Tlaib and her allies would "cheer on" the elimination of Hezbollah if they truly cared about Lebanon rather than advancing "meaningless resolutions to denigrate American foreign policy.""Its members are butchers that you like to hang out with to a certain extent," Miller told Tlaib on the floor. "Yes, you advocate for terrorists on a daily basis."Tlaib, the only Palestinian American member of Congress, immediately demanded that Miller's words be stricken from the House record. "That is a direct attack on my character," she said.The presiding officer ruled Miller's remarks violated House rules of decorum by impugning Tlaib's "patriotism and loyalty" — and barred him from speaking for the rest of the day, The Detroit News reported. Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL) then read Miller's defiant response from the floor: "Yes, I said it. I own it. I stand by it."Tlaib's underlying resolution seeks to withdraw U.S. forces from Lebanon, arguing that Congress has not authorized U.S. military involvement. She told colleagues that 3,400 people have died, 1.2 million have been displaced, and called it "an ethnic cleansing campaign."A House vote on the resolution is expected as early as Thursday.
