Washington — The Supreme Court on Wednesday will hear arguments in a case that pits Idaho's near-total ban on abortion against a federal law that requires hospitals to provide stabilizing care to patients experiencing medical emergencies.

The dispute between the Biden administration and Idaho officials in the case known as Moyle v. United States is the second the justices will hear in the span of a month that follows the Supreme Court's decision less than two years ago overturning Roe v. Wade. The outcome of the case could determine whether the...

The Supreme Court is set to consider a second abortion case on Wednesday, this time dealing with claims by a Republican-led state that the Biden administration is attempting to wield a 40-year-old federal law as an "abortion mandate."

On the heels of a debate over the Federal Food and Drug Administration’s regulation of an abortion pill, the high court will consider whether the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) preempts the state of Idaho’s newly enacted Defense of Life Act – which makes it a crime for any medical provider to...

Utah Sen. Mike Lee, a Republican, criticized the Senate's passage of the foreign aid package Tuesday night, calling it "wrong," "shameful" and a "sad day for America" for spending money the government does not have to fund another country's war.

The $95 billion package includes $61 billion to support Ukraine's war against Russia, $26 billion for Israel and humanitarian aid amid the Jewish State's war against Hamas and nearly $8 billion for the Indo-Pacific and Taiwan. It would also force TikTok's China-based parent company ByteDance to sell the...

What it's like to watch Trump's "hush money" trial from inside the courtroom

Everyone but the judge and jurors are seated before Donald Trump and his team enter the courtroom each day in his New York criminal trial.

Reporters, other members of the public, prosecutors and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg himself, must all pass through security screening and be in place, and quiet, as Trump approaches the room.

The group is sometimes settled in before Trump's motorcade has even pulled up to the 17-story Art Deco-style building. The court officers' radios suddenly crackle, echoing off the high, 83-year-old ceilings...

Now that the Senate has approved a nearly $61 billion aid package to Ukraine, and with President Biden poised to sign it, desperately needed American weapons could be arriving on the battlefield within days.

The weapons package — which has been delayed over political wrangling by House Republicans since last fall — is “a lifeline” for Kyiv’s military, said Yehor Cherniev, the deputy chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament’s national security committee.

But it will not include everything that President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has asked for as his...

Sky-high mortgage rates and other elevated borrowing costs are pinching American consumers ahead of the 2024 election, threatening President Biden’s chances at a second term.

Yet so far, Mr. Biden has not called on the Federal Reserve, which has raised interest rates to their highest levels in more than two decades, to slash those costs.

The White House has repeatedly cited the Fed’s independence as the reason that Mr. Biden will not push the Fed to cut interest rates. But some Democrats are now urging the president to jettison that approach. That...
