Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado says she'll be back in her country soon. Machado left Venezuela last month to accept the Nobel Peace Prize and hasn't yet returned. Now that the U.S. has forcibly removed president Nicolas Maduro in a military operation, Machado told Fox News on Monday that she'll be back to help dismantle what she called the criminal structures of the Maduro government.        President Trump says Republicans will "break records" in this year's midterm elections. He addressed the annual GOP retreat Tuesday at the newly renamed Trump Kennedy Center. This year will be critical for Republicans in the House as they look to keep their slim margin.        Today marks the fifth-year anniversary of the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. A large group of Trump supporters overwhelmed police and swarmed the Capitol as lawmakers worked to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election. Trump claimed Biden and his supporters "stole" the election, and told his audience gathered at the Ellipse that day, "We fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore."        Minnesota Governor Tim Walz says he has no plans to resign before the end of his term. A day after announcing he's ending his bid for a third term, Walz said, "I'm not going anywhere" and added "over my dead body will that happen." Walz has come under scrutiny over allegations of fraud involving Somali daycares.        Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Jaime [[ HI-may ]] Moore is commenting on lessons learned one year after the deadly Palisades Fire. Moore says there were significant shortcomings in the department's preparation and response to the fire. He says those were leadership and management issues and not the fault of firefighters.        The eldest son of former President Ronald Reagan has died. According to a statement from his family, Michael Reagan passed away in Los Angeles Sunday at the age of 80. Reagan was one of five children of the former President.
