Ex-CNN editor Chris Cilizza conceded on Monday that he "screwed up" in his assessment of the lab leak theory, suggesting that President Trump was likely right about COVID's origins.

The CIA says both a natural origin and a lab leak "remain plausible" as potential sources of covid-19, following a review of the pandemic's origins.

The nuanced finding suggests the agency believes the totality of evidence makes a lab origin more likely than a natural origin.

President Donald Trump signed a record number of executive orders during his first week back at the White House.

Although John Ratcliffe isn't expected to face major difficulties being confirmed, there’s still concern about his place at the top of the CIA.

A former federal prosecutor and Texas Republican, Ratcliffe gained prominence as a congressman as a staunch defender of Trump.

John Ratcliffe was director of national intelligence during Trump's first term and is the first person to have held that position and the top post at the CIA.

President Donald Trump's executive order authorized 2,500 federalized National Guardsmen to be deployed to the active duty mission. As of Thursday, the National Guard has over 1,600 Guardsmen supporting the federal border security mission, according to the statement.

The U.S. Senate is expected to hold a confirmation vote on Tuesday on John Ratcliffe, President Donald Trump's nominee for CIA Director, Senate Majority Leader John Thune said.

The CIA on Saturday offered a new assessment on the origin of the Covid outbreak, saying the coronavirus is "more likely" to have leaked from a Chinese lab than to have come from animals. But the intelligence agency cautioned it had "low confidence" in this determination.

On November 22, 1963, Lee Harvey Oswald, a former U.S. Marine and defector to the Soviet Union, fired three shots from a sixth-floor window of the Texas School Book Depository, striking President Kennedy as his motorcade passed through Dealey Plaza in Dallas.
