Barely 24 hours after scraping through the Republican-controlled House by a 218-214 vote, Trump sealed his second-term hallmark with a flourish, capping a day of flyovers, fanfare and political theatr

The Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday advanced President Donald Trump's sweeping tax-cut and spending bill, a procedural step setting the stage for possible passage of the legislation in a vote expected later in the day.

The ruling is a setback for President Donald Trump, a Republican who recaptured the White House promising a vast immigration crackdown.

A federal judge blocked a Trump administration policy barring migrants who cross the US-Mexico border from seeking asylum, issuing a major blow to President Donald Trump, who has sought to seal off access to protections on the border.

A US judge ruled Wednesday that US President Trump's ban on asylum claims by migrants who cross the Mexico-U.S. border is unlawful.
