FBI Director Kash Patel has purged another longtime senior official, triggering a fresh wave of fear throughout the bureau as employees brace for what appears to be another politically motivated purge of nonpartisan agents who have drawn disfavor from President Donald Trump or Republicans.

According to MS NOW's Ken Dilanian, Deputy Assistant Director Emily Morales was summarily fired and escorted out by FBI security last Friday on orders from Patel who has been keeping a low profile after being buffeted with accusations of excessive drinking.

Alexis McAdams was reporting for Will Cain's 4 p.m. show outside Delaney Hall Detention Center in Newark when a protester unleashed on her mid-broadcast. McAdams had just warned Cain that the scene could get uncomfortable, telling him she's "not the most popular reporter" at ICE protests—then almost immediately had to address a demonstrator nearby.

Questions about President Donald Trump's health and fitness have gotten urgent as he nears his 80th birthday, and Americans are increasingly concerned that he might not be up to the task.

The 79-year-old president went Tuesday to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for his third checkup in 13 months, sparking new speculation about his health, and CNN's Harry Enten presented polling data that shows those concerns are widespread.

A conservative commentator drew baffled stares from his fellow panelists on CNN after making a flagrantly false claim to justify possible government compensation for Jan. 6 rioters.

The Department of Justice established a $1.776 billion fund to repay individuals who claim to have been politically targeted by previous administrations, and anti-trans activist Terry Schilling told "CNN This Morning" that Trump allies had every right to payouts for prosecutions that resulted in convictions and guilty pleas.

CNN panelists ganged up on a conservative commentator for defending President Donald Trump's proposal to require federal workers to sign nondisclosure agreements.

The Office of Personnel Management posted a draft notice of the unprecedented order, which the administration claims is necessary to prevent “unauthorized disclosures” to the media, and anti-trans crusader Terry Schilling argued the move was both necessary and routine.

Rep. Mike Flood (R-NE) faced a hostile crowd at a Norfolk town hall Tuesday night, where constituents repeatedly battered him over his support for Donald Trump's controversial policies — from the $1.8 billion "weaponization slush fund" to soaring food and gas prices.

According to NOTUS, Flood, who was notably shouted down by voters at a Lincoln town hall last August, was forced to justify his party's loyalty to Trump across a range of contentious issues, including the unpopular Iran war, the president's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, and multi-million dollar White House renovation projects.

A right-wing activist trashed Democratic candidate James Talarico as unelectable in Texas, and a fellow panelist on CNN wiped the smirk from his face.

One of President Donald Trump's biographers shared a sobering prediction about how the second Trump administration will end during a new podcast interview on Tuesday.

Michael Wolff, a journalist who has written four books about Trump, discussed Trump's health with Joanna Coles, the Daily Beast's chief content officer, on a new episode of "Inside Trump's Head," the podcast they co-host. Wolff said Trump's "sense of the dramatic" makes it likely that his presidency will end suddenly and surprisingly, almost certainly in a way that gives Trump the place in history that he seems to crave.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton was roundly mocked on Tuesday night after he gave his victory speech for defeating incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) in the state's runoff election.

Paxton was declared the winner just after polls closed at 9 p.m. ET. He will move on to face Democratic Texas state lawmaker James Talarico in November, a race that some GOP pundits have suggested will be expensive because Paxton is not known for his fundraising skills.

CNN election guru John King was stunned on Tuesday after the Texas Senate primary race showed how much President Donald Trump's grip on the Republican Party had grown.

Scandal-plagued Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton defeated incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) resoundingly in the runoff elections, with CNN and the Wall Street Journal calling the race for Paxton just after polls closed at 9 p.m. ET. Paxton will face Democratic Texas state lawmaker James Talarico in the November election.
