President Donald Trump has alienated the rest of the world, according to new polling data, and an analyst said "those chickens are coming home to roost" now that the U.S. needs allies.

The 79-year-old president authorized joint U.S.-Israeli military operations against Iran, which responded by shutting down the Strait of Hormuz and choking off the global oil supply, and Trump has been unable to pressure any nations to help reopen the crucial waterway.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's pastor threatened a leading Democrat in the Texas Senate primary race during a recent podcast interview, according to a report.

Brooks Pottegier, who preaches at Pilgrim Hill Reformed Fellowship in a suburb outside of Nashville, Tennessee, joined Christian Nationalist commentator Joshua Haymes on a recent episode of his podcast, "Reformed Red Pill," where the two discussed Texas state Rep. James Talarico's campaign for the U.S. Senate.

Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones urged President Donald Trump's MAGA supporters to follow the lead of Joe Kent, an intelligence official who quit the administration over the war in Iran.

"Well, it's historic time for America and the world. Facts are all coming out. This is truly the age of revelation," Jones declared on his Tuesday broadcast. "Joe Kent. The head of the Office of National Counterterrorism, number two under Tulsi Gabbard, who oversees all 17 intelligence agencies, went public and resigned and said Israel's basically staged a coup over the Trump White House on foreign policy."

Pro-MAGA pollster Rich Baris of Big Data Polls struggled to offer good news about the midterms to the Charlie Kirk show hosts, Andrew Kolvet and Blake Neff.

"So, you know, Rich, but like that, you're talking about 2028. What about the midterms?" Kolvet asked on a Tuesday podcast. "I mean, there's, you know, you've had Joe Kent leaving this morning announcing his, his departure from the administration... We've got affordability. There's economic things to consider. Most people just care about how much money they have in their wallet at the end of the month."

U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts insisted that members of the court did not follow the ideology of the president who appointed them.

During a Tuesday discussion at Rice University, Roberts sought to dispel the notion that Justice Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett would defer to President Donald Trump because he nominated them.

Republicans who will be out of power and, in some cases, out of a job will look back on how they let President Donald Trump use his bully pulpit to pursue his own interests while leaving them “holding the bag” with furious voters.

That was the lesson delivered by Politico’s Jonathan Martin on MS NOW Tuesday, where he vociferously asserted that GOP lawmakers are headed for a disaster in November.

Donald Trump’s attack on the president of Ireland in front of Irish Taoiseach Micheal Martin in the Oval Office hit a rough patch on Tuesday afternoon.

As the president jumped from topic to topic, he was pressed about comments made by the Irish president who stated, “The normalization of war can never be accepted. Now, more than ever, we must renew our commitment to peace and diplomacy in line with the principles of international law as set out in the United Nations charter.”

President Donald Trump lashed out at his former director of National Counterterrorism Center on Tuesday following the official’s resignation out of protest over the U.S. war against Iran, calling him “weak” and “not smart.”

Joe Kent was tapped by Trump in early 2025 to lead his administration’s key counterterrorism agency, and has long been seen as a loyal supporter of Trump and the MAGA movement. The Trump administration’s war against Iran, however, was apparently a bridge too far for Kent, who offered his resignation earlier on Tuesday in protest.

House Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to define President Donald Trump's claim that he would end the Iran war when he feels it in his bones to mean "informed by the intelligence."

"President Trump recently said that the war in Iran will be over when he feels it in his bones," a reporter told Johnson on Tuesday. "What does he mean by that?"

The abrupt resignation of Donald Trump’s director of the National Counterterrorism Center with a very public rebuttal of the Iran war could lead to more officials fleeing the embattled White House.

Early Tuesday morning, Joe Kent, who worked hand-in-hand with Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, dealt a devastating blow to the president’s war narrative that was already being greeted with no small amount of skepticism.

An explosive Senate committee meeting last week made headlines after Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) lashed out at immigration expert David Bier over what he called "hyperbolic” social media posts critical of the Trump administration, but on Monday, Bier revealed that he was taken aback by the GOP senator’s ill-prepared attacks.

“I am a little surprised that he seemed unprepared for his interrogation of me,” Bier told The Bulwark in a video interview. “He didn't really come with any arguments.”
