In the midst of a week in which Democrats are setting their sights on winning back the White House this November, the Senate's top Democrat offered a reminder of what could be possible if they were also to capture the Senate majority as well.

With the federal unemployment compensation benefit having expired last month and negotiations over a new economic rescue package having broken down, a top House Democrat is pointing fingers at the one individual responsible for preventing a deal from happening.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi clearly pinned blame on Republicans for a failure thus far of negotiations to produce a new economic stimulus package, which is a goal both sides say that they want.

In a rare show of bipartisanship, the Senate's top Democrat is echoing Donald Trump's call to shut down operations of the social media provider known as TikTok or transfer control to a US company like Microsoft.

It's a hell of a send-off for a man who had been one of last of the great fighters for civil rights and so revered for so long that he was known as the "conscience of the Congress."

A top House Democrat who has a long history of investigating Donald Trump called out the Trump's use of unidentified paramilitary federal agents as nothing more than a political stunt.

A US senator from Illinois is warning Donald Trump not to send the kind of unidentified, paramilitary federal agents who have been snatching protesters from the streets of Portland Ore., also to the streets of Chicago.

It is the unidentified federal agents--not the local protesters--inflaming conditions on the streets of Portland, Ore., according to a congresswoman whose district includes the city.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi clapped back at Donald Trump and Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, who began this week demanding that all of the nation's schools re-open this fall in the midst of the novel coronavirus pandemic.

With most states prioritizing their economies over stay-at-home orders, and a federal response which has been largely MIA, the novel coronavirus pandemic will only get worse in the United States, according to one of the top US experts on the matter.
