President Donald Trump described the Russiagate allegations against former President Barack Obama and members of his administration as "serious treason" on Tuesday during an interview. During a conversation on "Pod Force One," host Miranda Devine brought up Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's allegations against Obama.

Washington Post editorial slams Obama judge for blocking ‘fair and square’ GOP defunding of Planned Parenthood
The Washington Post editorial board slammed Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani's decision to block an "act of Congress" by issuing a preliminary injunction to revoke Congress's decision to divert Medicaid funds away from abortion providers like Planned Parenthood. The Post editorial argued on Tuesday that, while some of the Trump administration’s attempts to strip federal funding from disfavored programs rightly face scrutiny for bypassing Congress, the Republican effort to cut Medicaid funding for abortion care was passed "fair and square" through the legislative process."Allocating public money is Congress’s core competency.
