The Department of Justice's second-in-command can add "librarian" to his résumé. Todd Blanche has been appointed acting Librarian of Congress, the Justice Department confirmed Monday.

Blanche is President Trump's former personal criminal attorney. It is unclear if the career lawyer has previously done work involving the Dewey Decimal System (or the Library of Congress Classification system).

Two other Justice Department officials have also added Library of Congress positions to their portfolios.

Associate Deputy Attorney General Paul Perkins has...

The former president's win was expected, but other races in the midterms proved less predictable.

House and Senate Republicans have been working for months on a sweeping piece of legislation addressing a litany of President Donald Trump's agenda items.

Such a bill is possible via the budget reconciliation process, which allows the party controlling Congress and the White House to pass broad policy overhauls while totally sidelining the minority. It lowers the Senate’s threshold for passage from 60 votes to 51, lining it up with the House’s simple majority rules.

However, one of the caveats is that the measures tucked into the bill must deal...

President Donald Trump will visit Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates next week to advance a flurry of high-stakes negotiations, but his trip comes as cracks seem to have appeared in his relationship with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

On the agenda are reviving hostage talks with Israel and Hamas, exploring an off-ramp for the Russia-Ukraine war and potentially a civil nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia, even if the kingdom refuses to normalize ties with Israel.

However, an apparent chill between Trump and Netanyahu has...

A Democratic National Committee (DNC) vice chairman fired up a crowd outside Philadelphia on Saturday after calling President Donald Trump a "punk" and accusing his administration of modern-day book burning for adjusting content on government websites.

As part of that "strategy," Kenyatta said, "one of the first things they go after is...

The Department of Homeland Security issued subpoenas to the government of California on Monday seeking records related to alleged disbursements of federal funds to illegal immigrants.

Washington — The Defense Department has spent more than $21 million on flights to Guantanamo Bay amid the Trump administration's migrant deportation efforts, according to figures shared in a letter sent to Congress and obtained by CBS News.

The $21 million figure was first reported by NBC News.

In January, President Trump directed his administration to use the U.S. Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, as a holding site for migrants, where he said the highest priority, "worst" offenders would be held as part of his aggressive crackdown on...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is planning Monday to make a significant push to address homeless encampments.

The governor's office is framing the address as a "statewide funding announcement" regarding California's mental health and homelessness issues.

As detailed by the governor's office, Newsom will be releasing a model ordinance that cities can use as a basis for their own local ordinances against homeless encampments.

"There's nothing compassionate about letting people die on the streets," Newsom said in a statement ahead of Monday's...

Iowa Republican Rep. Randy Feenstra plans to announce a run for governor as soon as this week, two sources told CBS News, setting the stage for what could become a politically tense primary contest in the GOP.

President Donald Trump declared Monday that the U.S. "will no longer tolerate profiteering and price gouging from Big Pharma" as he signed an executive order implementing what his administration is calling "most favored nations drug pricing."

"The principle is simple – whatever the lowest price paid for a drug in other developed countries, that is the price that Americans will pay," Trump said at the White House. "Some prescription drug and pharmaceutical prices will be reduced almost immediately by 50 to 80 to 90%."

Trump said that "starting...
