There is his tortured history with Trump, for whom he served as personal attorney and problem-zapper until his practices came under federal investigation. That led to felony convictions and prison...

During an appearance on NBC's "Meet the Press," Graham said "it's impossible to mitigate civilian deaths in Gaza as long as Hamas uses their own population as human shields."

"I've never seen in the history of warfare such blatant efforts by an enemy, Hamas, to put civilians at risk. And the last thing you want to do is reward this...

President-elect Jose Raul Mulino vowed to shut down a crucial migration gap through Panama that has been used by more than 500,000 migrants over the last year, signaling a shift in the country's policy as the U.S. continues to battle a crisis at its southern border, according to a report from Voice of America.

"Panama and our Darien [Gap] are not a transit route. It is our border," Mulino said, according to the report.
