Neither Lara Trump nor Vivek Ramaswamy will join the Senate. But it’s likely the president-elect didn’t really go to the mat for their appointments.

U.S. stock indexes closed their best week in two months with a flourish Friday. The Standard & Poor's 500 climbed 1% to clinch its first winning week in the last three. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 0.

A recent CNN poll, conducted by SSRS and released earlier this week, found views of Trump are fairly split with 46 percent of Americans viewing him as favorable while 48 percent see him as unfavorable.

So as we anticipate what could be the immensely consequential presidency of Donald Trump, we should close the books on this particular question.

President-elect Donald Trump is returning to Washington triumphant: His legal cases are behind him, corporate executives are flocking to Mar-a-Lago to meet with him, his inaugural committee has raised record sums of money for Monday’s ceremony and the Republican Party is now fully in his control.

A Georgia appeals court has upheld the dismissal of some of the charges against President-elect Donald Trump and others in the Georgia 2020 election interference case, as the future of the case remains uncertain.

The report, which said the special counsel’s office stood “fully behind” the merits of the prosecution, amounted to an extraordinary rebuke of the president-elect.

The fast-moving legal battle over the release of special counsel Jack Smith's final report played out days before Trump's second-term inauguration.

U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith concluded that Donald Trump engaged in an "unprecedented criminal effort" to hold on to power after losing the 2020 election, but was thwarted in bringing the case to trial by the president-elect's November election victory.

Jack Smith wrote that Donald Trump would have been convicted had the case been allowed to proceed and explained why he didn’t pursue charges of incitement of the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol.
