Huge cuts to food stamps part of Trump's budget proposal | 22 May 2017 | President Donald Trump's budget would drive millions of people off of food stamps, part of a new wave of spending cut proposals that already are getting panned by lawmakers in both parties on Capitol Hill.

It includes a wave of cuts to benefit programs such as Medicaid, federal employee pensions, welfare benefits and farm agribusiness subsidies.

Hannity on Seth Rich coverage: 'I retracted nothing' | 23 May 2017 | Fox News' Sean Hannity ripped his critics and the mainstream media on his nationally syndicated radio program Tuesday, saying, "I am not Fox.com or FoxNews.com, I retracted nothing."
