Police are responding to reports of an “active shooter” at a synagogue outside Detroit, where smoke is billowing from the roof.

The Oakland County Sheriff’s office said authorities are clearing the building. About a dozen parents sprinted to get their children from an early childhood learning center inside the building after getting approval from police.

Trump says when oil prices go up, the US makes a lot of money

President Donald Trump on Thursday said that when oil prices go up in the U.S., the country makes a lot of money.

Sen. Kim: "The people I talk are thinking about their grocery prices, housing prices. They're not thinking about how much money American corporations are going to make off of higher oil prices, because that's just gonna raise all of our prices at home. That's where the president is just so detached"

We don’t have to worry about Iranian sleeper cells when we have this guy on the job.

Sen. Kim: A couple of years ago we created the Civilian Protection Center. Hegseth decided to gut this office last year. And now we find ourselves facing one of the worst losses of life for civilians at the hands of Americans in decades.
