McConnell to Step Down , as Senate Republican Leader.
The Senate's longest-serving leader
ever, Mitch McConnell, will step
down in November, AP reports.
The 82-year-old made the
announcement on Feb.
28.
One of lifeās most underappreciated talents
is to know when itās time to
move on to lifeās next chapter, Mitch McConnell, via statement.
So I stand before you today ... to
say that this will be my last term
as Republican leader of the Senate, Mitch McConnell, via statement.
While McConnell will no longer serve as the Senate's Republican leader, he will complete his term,
"albeit from a different seat in the chamber," he said.
That term ends in January 2027.
President Biden, 81, commented
on the development.
Iāve trusted him and we have
a great relationship.
We fight like
hell.
But he has never, never,
never misrepresented anything, President Joe Biden, via statement.
According to McConnell's aides, the
announcement was not related to health issues.
As I have been thinking about when I would
deliver some news to the Senate, I always
imagined a moment when I had total clarity
and peace about the sunset of my work, Mitch McConnell, via statement.
A moment when I am certain I have
helped preserve the ideals I so
strongly believe.
The Senate confirmed Tulsi Gabbard as President Trumps Director of National Intelligence, despite strong partisan opposition. The 52-48 vote reflected Trumps continued influence over the GOP, with only Sen. Mitch McConnell voting against her. Gabbard, a former congresswoman and Iraq war veteran, faced scrutiny over her controversial past stances, including her support for Edward Snowden. Critics from both parties voiced concerns, but Gabbards confirmation signals a significant shift in U.S intelligence leadership.

In a dramatic late-night session, Senate Republicans passed a budget blueprint that sets the stage for extending Donald Trumpās tax cuts ā and they did it without a single Democratic vote. By bypassing the filibuster through budget reconciliation, the GOP now has a clear path to push through Trumpās economic, military, and border priorities.
With $5 trillion in potential spending cuts and a looming debt ceiling crisis, this vote marks the beginning of a high-stakes budget war on Capitol Hill. Will this reshape Americaās economic future ā or ignite political chaos?

The U.S. has revoked all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and halted future issuances, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Saturday. The decision follows Jubaās alleged refusal to accept deported nationals. The State Department criticized South Sudanās transitional government for ātaking advantageā of U.S. leniency. The move comes amid worsening instability in South Sudan, which faces mass displacement and food crises. The Biden administration says visa restrictions will remain until full cooperation is ensured.
