The national debt exceeded $40 trillion for the first time in history, leading economists to warn that the United States is staring down a fiscal reckoning. The Treasury Department reported on Wednesday that the debt crossed the $40 trillion mark the day before. The government has been running budget deficits for years, and for the […]

What do you think the impact of a Trump-backed candidate winning in Florida could be on future elections and voter choices?

Tuesday is the Florida Man primary. "It's really weird," one political pro said. Why it matters: Florida, MAGA's beating heart, is President Trump's home and was a top, successful target of his redistricting push to add more GOP-leaning congressional seats. Zoom in: What makes some of the contests stand out isn't their competitiveness — it's how they invoke the wacky Florida Man internet meme. These campaigns featured carpetbaggers, racial conflict, homophobia, struggling socialists, antisemitism, and even a scandal-plagued member of Congress slapped with a restraining order."It's like Florida Man is having his own election right now," said a Republican political consultant financing one of the state's marquee races. Between the lines: As in the rest of the nation, Trump's approval ratings have declined in Florida. But it's a mostly Republican state, and oddsmakers and political insiders from both parties believe the odds still favor the GOP. Registered Republicans outnumber Democrats by about 1.5 million in Florida. In 2018, Trump's prior midterm, Democrats outnumbered registered Republicans by 245,000. Tuesday's key showdowns in Florida: 1. The governor's race: Rep. Byron Donalds is expected to cruise to a win over his lesser-known and comparatively underfunded opponents in the Republican primary. Donalds is on the cusp of becoming the GOP's first Black nominee for Florida governor, and he'd be the favorite to become the Sunshine State's first Black governor.One of Donalds' opponents — James Fishback — has generated social media buzz and snagged mainstream media coverage, partly with racist dog whistles. Two weeks ago, a federal judge ordered Fishback to pay his former hedge fund $1.3 million in attorneys' fees and costs stemming from a contentious split.On the Democratic side, former Rep. David Jolly is outraising and outspending lesser-known rivals. Jolly, a former Republican, made the unorthodox decision to pick former Democratic Rep. Gwen Graham as his running

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are being told to prioritize the arrests of Haitian nationals whose Temporary Protected Status (TPS) in the United States is officially coming to an end. Haitians have been shielded from deportation and allowed to work in the United States without permanent immigration status through the program for over a
