Senator Pat Toomey (R-PA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that former President Donald Trump’s influence in the Republican Party is “waning.” Anchor Jake Tapper said, “Do you think Republicans are increasingly receptive to that message? Do you think Donald Trump’s hold on your party is finally slipping?” Toomey said, “Absolutely I do. First, I think his influence was waning, not as quickly as I had hoped it would. I think it was waning. But the election outcome from last month, I think, dramatically accelerates the waning, and, frankly, his unbelievably terrible rollout of his re-election, his election...

The Energy Information Administration estimates the average natural gas heating bill will go up 28% this winter when compared to last winter. About half of homes nationally rely on natural gas for heating, according to U.S. Census data.

If approved at this level, the Pentagon budget will have grown at 4.3 percent per year over the last...

NYPD officers refused to look at Ring camera surveillance footage that would have exonerated a nurse busted for domestic violence charges, according to a new federal lawsuit. Tricia Lara says she’s the one who got arrested when her cousin forced her way into her Brooklyn apartment on June 30 — even though a camera set up in her living room showed her cousin was the aggressor. The officers’ unwillingness to watch the video — despite a state law requiring cops to investigate who “primary physical aggressor” in a domestic violence case is — put Lara through the criminal justice system...
