President Trump said on Saturday he was considering revoking Rosie O’Donnell’s U.S. citizenship. Trump has feuded with the comedian and actress since before he became president. Experts said the president does not have the power to take away the citizenship of a U.S.-born citizen.

Trump Threatens to Strip Rosie O’Donnell of U.S. Citizenship

President Trump called Ms. O’Donnell, who has feuded with him since before he became president, a “threat to humanity.”

RFK Jr. wants to Make America Healthy Again. But he's ignoring the country's leading cause of preventable deaths: smoking.

The health secretary, who wants Americans to make healthier choices, rarely mentions smoking.
