President Trump hasn't moved beyond executive actions, something a president normally resorts to when he can't get anything done legislatively. That's not a good sign for Trump's agenda.

Donald Trump seems to have ignited a firestorm within the Republican Party with a tweet dare to the Freedom Caucus: work with him or he will work with Democrats.

President Trump seems to have given the U.S. military a freer hand — but without apparent diplomatic or political strategies to accompany the increased military engagement.

The president told a bipartisan group of senators that there will be a deal on health care. "It's such an easy one," he said, adding that it will "happen very quickly." But it's hardly that easy.

The president on Tuesday signed an executive order with the intention of helping bring back coal jobs. But clean energy jobs, like solar, have taken off, far outpacing coal.

Democrats are calling for Nunes to recuse himself from the Russia investigation after it was revealed he was on White House grounds the day before announcing evidence of Trump's team being surveilled.

The president showed little interest in policy details. If he continues to focus superficially on getting a win instead of learning, Republicans warn that his priorities will continue to be derailed.

We look at the House Freedom Caucus, a key Republican faction that opposed the American Health Care Act. The GOP healthcare bill was later withdrawn over lack of support.

Political analyst Ken Rudin, Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post's Right Turn Blog, and NPR political editor Domenico Montanaro discuss the newsy week.

According to White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer, President Trump "left it all on the field" in terms of his efforts to gain support for the Republican bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.

The message delivered by Budget Director Mick Mulvaney came after a vote was delayed. House Speaker Paul Ryan came out of the GOP conference Thursday night and said they would proceed on Friday.

The GOP deadline to pass health care is the first week of April. If it doesn't happen, everything else gets pushed back. Trump's agenda faces two big tests this week, from the Supreme Court to Russia.

The long-awaited GOP health care plan is out. President Trump and Republicans might have an easier time passing it than Obama eight years ago, but health care is complicated and not an easy sell.

The president brought up reviving dying industries and making America great again during his address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday. But the message is a generation old with roots in music.

After the president delivered what amounted to a fairly normal address to a joint session of Congress, there were musings that maybe he would stay "presidential."

After a chaotic first month in office, Trump got good marks for delivering a speech that was normal — but his address was noticeably light on policy specifics.

In very different ways, immigration and Islam were highlights at both the Conservative Political Action Conference and the vote for a new Democratic National Committee chairman.

The president tweeted that he will not attend this year's dinner. He'll be the first president to do so since Reagan missed it in 1981, after he was shot.

Former Obama Labor Secretary Tom Perez has been elected as chairman of the DNC. Perez appointed his final opponent, Rep. Keith Ellison, as deputy chair.

Donald Trump speaks at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday morning. We discuss how Trump's idea of "America first" squares with traditional Republican ideas.
