    Mar 27, 2019

    WASHINGTON — The Democratic-led House failed Tuesday to override President Donald Trump's first veto, salvaging his effort to steer billions of extra dollars to erecting border barriers and delivering a victory to the White House in a constitutional and political clash that's raged for months.

Just days after Attorney General William Barr announced that special counsel Robert Mueller had found Trump didn't scheme with Russia to h...
