Fox News Politics: The ‘Jerry Springer’ Congress

Welcome to Fox News’ Politics newsletter with the latest political news from Washington D.C. and updates from the 2024 campaign trail. 

What’s happening:

– Trump heads to Minnesota GOP convention after son’s high school graduation

– State Department warns Americans traveling overseas

– House rep revives ‘end the Fed’ push

Fetterman vs the Mean Girls

Democratic Sen. John Fetterman called out spats between Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Marjorie Taylor Green, and his fellow Democrat is not happy about it.

“In the past, I’ve described the U.S. House as The Jerry Springer Show. Today, I’m apologizing to The Jerry Springer Show,” Fetterman posted on social media, along with a headline about a congressional hearing that devolved into sophomoric insults where AOC called MTG “baby girl” and MTG questioned AOC’s intelligence and criticized another Democrat’s fake eyelashes.

Ocasio-Cortez told Fetterman in a post that he seemed to be “confused about racism and misogyny being a ‘both sides’ issue,” and said she would “stand up to bullies, instead of becoming one.”

There have been plenty of fiery moments in the House chambers in recent years, but the Senate has seen its share of parliamentary bickering.
