For once, things were moving fast in the nation's capital. Washington was hosting an IndyCar race through its streets Sunday, with President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump kicking off the Freedom 250 Grand Prix by leading a slow lap in the presidential limousine through the course.

Donald Trump dumped his chance to be the ceremonial pace car driver for the Indianapolis 500 in 2011, after backlash over his birther comments and rumored presidential bid pushed the race to reconsider.

The president took a ceremonial lap of the track before the race, which is the culmination of a summer of events to mark the country's 250th birthday.

President Donald Trump was riding in the Beast around the 1.7-mile D.C. track before waving the green flag as Álex Palou started on pole for the IndyCar Freedom 250 Grand Prix.

A fast-growing wildfire in Nevada has grown to 10,000 acres since it began burning just outside Reno on Saturday, forcing thousands to evacuate.

Fueled by strong winds, the Hawk fire has burned over 10,000 acres near Reno, forcing thousands of evacuations and a state of emergency.

The fast-growing Hawk Fire spread from the Sierra foothills toward the center of Reno early Sunday, growing to more than 10,500 acres. Nearly 14,000 homes were ordered evacuated, and the “G0 NOW” zone reached the edge of the University of Nevada campus.

The fast-growing Hawk Fire that was spreading toward neighborhoods and consumed some homes in northwest Reno, Nevada, was caused by humans and was 0% contained Sunday, authorities said. At least six people were injured.

Tropical Storm Moke is closing in on its closest approach to Hawaii as the state braces for its second tropical threat in less than a week after the deadly Hurricane Lala tore through parts of the

Hawaii, which rarely sees tropical activity, is facing its second tropical system in two weeks as Tropical Storm Moke tracks toward the Islands, on the heels of the torrential rain Hurricane Lala brought last week.

Tropical Storm Moke is threatening life-threatening floods in Hawaii despite being weaker than Hurricane Lala, because Lala's 40-plus inches of rain fully saturated Big Island soil eight days ago. NWS documents show a weaker second storm can flood worse than a stronger first one on saturated ground -- a pattern Hawaii experienced just six months ago in March 2026.

The system is expected to strengthen into Tropical Storm Moke on Friday. Moke should remain weaker than Hurricane Lala. It will move south of Hawaii's Big Island with rain overspreading the area on Saturday night and then hammer the island on Sunday and into Monday.

The U.S. Postal Service published a final rule late on Friday to tighten requirements ‌for mail-in voting ahead of the November congressional elections.

USPS finalized a rule requiring states to share voter lists for mail-in ballots, but a federal injunction on Trump's executive order blocks it.

The plan complies with President Trump’s executive order to restrict mail voting, which was blocked by federal courts and is under review at the Supreme Court.

Under the proposed change, states would be required to collect and report basic voter information, like a voter's name and home address, attached to a unique barcode on every mail-in ballot distributed.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and the president’s son-in-law Jared Kushner reportedly met in private to identify bipartisan issues as Democrats aim to retake control of the House in November.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Sunday downplayed the reported meeting between Jared Kushner and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.). “I don’t know what that’s about. I know Jared has

Democratic House leader Hakeem Jeffries met with President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner in recent weeks, CNBC confirmed. The timing of the meeting suggests people close to the president may be preparing for at least one chamber of Congress to flip to Democratic control as the midterm elections loom less than three months away.

Fox News correspondent Lucas Tomlinson joins 'Fox News Sunday' to discuss President Donald Trump's continuation of ballroom construction after the Supreme Court's temporary order.

President Donald Trump continued to celebrate the Supreme Court ruling that his White House ballroom project can proceed on a provisional basis. “I’m in a very good mood tonight,” Trump said shortly after taking the stage at a rally for newly appointed Sen.

The temporary order came hours before lower-court rulings would have forced a halt to aboveground construction of the project because Trump didn't get congressional approval.

The ongoing construction can continue while the full court considers Trump’s appeal of a lower court decision which ordered him to stop.
