In another stunning act of hacking, a group thought to be an offshoot of the Anonymous broke into Fox News Twitter account and tweeted that President Obama was killed.

A Twitter account belonging to the Fox News network in the U.S. was hacked by a group who falsely declared that President Barack Obama had died.

Fox News Politics, which has over thirty thousand followers on Twitter, posted today morning ‘President Barack Obama assassinated.’

A video of President Barack Obama filmed in the White House and included in a fundraising e-mail sent to supporters is not legal, two election law experts say, CNSNews.com reported.

In an attempt to put it all on the table, the U.S. Senate's top Republican invited President Obama to a GOP lunch at the Capitol to discuss the ongoing dispute over the debt ceiling and related issues, but the White House on Thursday declined the invitation.

If your adjusted gross income is under $250,000, you may get a reprieve, if the Obama administration's latest deficit reduction proposal becomes law after debt ceiling talks have concluded. The administration is now said-to-be seeking to increase taxes on a narrow slice of the mega-rich, such as owners of private jets.

President Obama wants to end a tax break worth $72 billion to U.S. businesses. Doing so would be a big mistake.

President Barack Obama will meet with leaders from both parties Monday, seeking to overcome an impasse in negotiations over a deal to raise the federal debt limit.

President Barack Obama indicated Friday he is ready to take over the budget deficit / debt ceiling negotiations, inviting Senate leaders to the White House next week, as the continuing impasse pushes the U.S. closer to a potential default.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said President Barack Obama should borrow a page from his book and personally engage in budget deficit and debt ceiling talks with lawmakers.

Las Vegas is not only place to roll the dice for really high stakes. Washington, D.C. is another, and the GOP has done exactly that in its deficit reduction talks walkout. It's a bold move, but fraught with risk: it could reshape the U.S.'s social welfare state, or trigger a market-rocking U.S. Government default on its bonds.

A year ago, it seemed implausible, perhaps absurd, to think the U.S.'s two, major parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, would disagree so much that the United States would be at risk of defaulting on its bonds, due to a failure to raise the debt ceiling before the U.S. Government runs out of money in August. Now, incredibly, it appears a U.S. default is possible.

U.S. Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., announced Thursday morning he is suspending his participation in the bipartisan negotiations to reduce the deficit, saying the talks had reached an impasse over taxes.

President Barack Obama began the steady retreat from Afghanistan Wednesday, saying in a televised speech the United States has largely achieved its goals and the withdrawal of troops will now begin.

How big could the national debt get? Well, to paraphrase a line popularized by actor William Shatner, if Congressional lawmakers can not agree on a deficit reduction package, it’s going to get ‘really big’ -- grow to a total larger than the U.S. economy.

In a speech he'll deliver to the nation Wednesday night, President Barack Obama is expected to announce the initial drawdown. However, regardless of the pace or scale of the withdrawal, the United States will maintain a substantial presence in the country, reflecting a decision on Obama's part to make the Afghanistan effort the lynchpin of his foreign policy.

President Obama is still mulling his options as he prepares to announce a schedule for withdrawing the 33,000 additional troops he committed to Afghanistan upon assuming office.

Republicans are showing an increased willingness to consider eliminating tax breaks as a weapon to reduce the deficit
