Trump signs bill blocking California gas car ban plan
President Trump signed legislation on Thursday blocking California's rules to phase out the sales of gas-powered cars by 2035. Why it matters: Trump is moving to roll back environmental initiatives that were a top Biden -era priority and his action against California comes amid an escalating feud with Golden State Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) amid fiery LA protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids. Driving the news: "It's been a disaster for this country," Trump said as he signed the measure. "We officially rescue the U.S. auto industry from destruction by terminating the California electric vehicle mandate once and for all." Newsom and California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced the state and 10 others will sue the Trump administration for what they called his "illegal resolutions targeting" California's clean vehicles program. "Trump's all-out assault on California continues — and this time he's destroying our clean air and America's global competitiveness in the process," Newsom said in a statement. "We are suing to stop this latest illegal action by a President who is a wholly-owned subsidiary of big polluters." The big picture: California has the largest car market, and roughly a dozen other states can follow its rules under the Clean Air Act. Bonata has already announced a lawsuit with 10 other state attorneys general after the Republican-led Senate approved a resolution last month to revoke a waiver allowing California to set its own air quality standards. Between the lines: What Trump signed are revocations of EPA waivers that enable the California EV rule (and separate rules on trucks and nitrogen oxide). Thought bubble, via Axios' Joann Muller: States can follow California or stick with the EPA. Eleven states decided to follow these latest rules but at least one (Vermont) announced it wouldn't enforce it because there was no way they could deliver.

Tensions rising in GOP over Trump border plan as Rand Paul squares off with Stephen Miller
A bitter feud is escalating between Republican Sen. Rand Paul and Donald Trump's top border official, injecting uncertainty into Congress's attempt to pass the administration's signature policy bill this month. Key Trump adviser Stephen Miller came to Capitol Hill to meet with Senate Republicans on Thursday to resolve a major issue over the bill's border security provisions – which Paul opposes. Paul and Miller have been locked in a dispute for days over the border funding. The White House is seeking $150 billion in funds for border security and deportation. But Paul – who has repeatedly lashed out against the price tag of Trump's bill – wants to dramatically cut down that funding. Now, that tension between the two key GOP figures is spilling into the open. Paul is taking swipes at Miller to reporters on Capitol Hill, attacking Miller for his recent comments about the administration looking at suspending habeas corpus and then suggesting on Wednesday that Miller himself was the reason he was uninvited from a White House picnic. Trump has since personally asked him and his family to attend the Thursday event, the senator said. Miller, meanwhile, has been firing off social media posts at the Kentucky senator, accusing him of, for instance, trying to cut funding for border security amid the Los Angeles riots. 'They want to quiet me down, and it hasn't worked, and so they're going to try to attack me. They're going to try to destroy me in other ways, and then do petty little things like social occasions or whatever. But you know, it probably will not work. It probably will not make me cow down or bend over,' Paul told CNN on Wednesday, after saying he was disinvited from the White House picnic. Asked if he was talking about Miller, Paul nodded. Paul's strong push to limit Trump's border security cash puts him mostly on an island among Hill Republicans, according to one person familiar with the talks, though other GOP senators pressed Miller about specific funding accounts in a meeting earlier Thursday. And the back-and-forth has frustrated some of their fellow GOP senators. Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin said Miller 'did a good job' answering GOP senators' questions on Thursday about border wall money, but he added some Republicans 'were upset' or 'just didn't want to hear it.' 'I mean, Rand Paul's solution is cut everything in half and call it good. Yeah, that's not real budgeting,' Mullin added. Paul, however, has defended his stance, insisting that the White House needs to justify its funding request, especially since it was made before Trump came into office. And he specifically called out a certain GOP senator whom he accused of being a fiscal hawk only when 'convenient.' 'Senator Graham wants to make sure the president gets exactly what he wants. He's a rubber stamp, and I am a believer that we are acting fiscally responsible at every level of government, across government, and that you can't just sort of be fiscally conservative when it's convenient, when it comes to the border,' Paul told reporters Thursday. Paul did not attend Miller's visit to Senate Republicans on Thursday, citing a conflicting committee meeting. Even so, the meeting at times grew contentious over the president's plans to spend billions on the border. Florida Sen. Rick Scott, offering a defense of his GOP colleagues, said those Republicans were interested in more specifics about how the border money would be spent. 'I think what everybody was pushing back is we want more detail. I know exactly how the money is going to be spent. It's not, has nothing to do with whether we support him,' Scott said. One of those probing Miller on the border funding was GOP Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, another fiscal hawk who has been working to make sure Trump's pricey tax breaks don't add to the deficit. 'The numbers didn't quite add up,' Johnson later told reporters of his questions to Miller. 'He did a really good job of explaining why it is going to be more expensive, but then just how difficult it is going to be to create the beds and the expense of that.' 'There was just some basic numbers that we weren't aware of. We didn't have the math. We didn't have their calculation. I think he was a little blindsided from that standpoint.'

Rep. Mannion defends house floor outburst as act of patriotism: ‘I have to stop the rise of authoritarian government'
WASHINGTON, D.C. (WSYR-TV) — Congressman John Mannion is defending his vulgar outburst towards a fellow congressman on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives as an act of patriotism. Over a televised feed of the House vote, shouting can be heard in a distant part of the room. It's Representative Mannion saying, in part: 'get over there and get some f**king balls. Tell them. Tell them. You know who I am.' The comments were directed at Republican Congressman Mike Lawler, also of New York. Mannion's office said the congressman was already fired up about Senator Alex Padilla being removed from a press briefing hosted by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The tension continued into a Democrat-hosted press conference outside the house floor, which then spilled onto the house floor when the argument began the congressman began. Lawler posted a response, also profane, to his campaign's social media: 'John Mannion was entirely unhinged and unprofessional. That was a shameful display that exposed his complete lack of temperament. No wonder numerous staffers have previously alleged a toxic work environment. He should go seek help for anger management — and f**k off.' Mannion's office responded to NewsChannel 9's request for comment. Statement from Representative John Mannion: I'm a kid from Tipp Hill that's fighting for my hometown and my country. I'm giving everything I have to stop the rise of authoritarian government and the destruction of American democracy. If making some noise on the house floor and calling out Trump enablers draws attention to what's happening to our country right before our eyes – good. Today it's roughing up and handcuffing a United States Senator and a politicized military patrolling the streets of American cities. It's the willing abandonment of the rule of law and a gross fealty to a want-to-be dictator who is tearing the country apart. None of this is normal or okay. I'm always going to stand up and speak out and fight for the people of this country. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
