Former Trump administration Homeland Security staffer Miles Taylor tore apart the president's recent wave of strikes on ships off the coast of Venezuela on MS NOW, saying that even Trump's own supporters know his stated motive for the attacks is nonsense.

This comes amid a bipartisan investigation in Congress over one particular strike in September, in which military officials apparently fired on survivors who were surrendering and likely hadn't even been heading toward the United States.

The Supreme Court fell silent when Justice Sonia Sotomayor blasted President Donald Trump's Solicitor General D. John Sauer for arguing presidents should be able to fire independent agency officials at will, warning his bid would “destroy the structure of government.” Sauer insisted the sky wouldn’t fall if the Court overturned the 90-year Humphrey’s Executor precedent, but Sotomayor’s sharp claim that he was letting presidents “do more than the law permits” forced him to hurriedly walk back his argument.

More than 100 former civil rights lawyers at the Department of Justice shredded their former employer in a new letter for "largely abandoning its duty to protect civil rights."

In the letter, the lawyers argued that Harmeet Dhillon, assistant attorney general for the DOJ's civil rights division, has fundamentally reshaped the division to serve the Trump administration's aims rather than administer justice. The letter was released at a time when the DOJ's civil rights office is pursuing lawsuits against several states for failing to turn over their voter rolls and focus its efforts on prosecuting anti-white discrimination.

Gene Simmons, frontman for the rock band KISS, called out lawmakers on Tuesday during a hearing on a bill that would increase musician pay for songs played on AM/FM radio stations.

Gene Simmons, bassist and vocalist for the 70s rock band KISS, testified on Tuesday in support of The American Music Fairness Act during a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Intellectual Property. The bill would require radio stations to pay royalties for sound recordings, a loophole that Simmons said has been used to prevent American music legends like Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley from getting paid when their songs are played on the radio.

Katie Miller’s sweeping claims of “terroristic” threats against her family unraveled after a police report revealed the supposed danger was nothing more than non-threatening political chalk outside her $3.75 million home. Despite her Fox News warnings of doxing, death threats, and unsafe neighbors, Virginia police found no crimes — undercutting her recent dramatic retellings and her vow that the family “will not cower in fear,” even as they quietly moved to a military base.

White House adviser Stephen Miller melted down in a Fox News interview while insisting that descendants of immigrants often failed in society.

"And so what you saw between 1965 and today was the single largest experiment on a society, on a civilization that had ever been conducted in human history," Miller told Fox News host Will Cain on Tuesday. "Not just the 76 million immigrants that were brought in, largely from the third world, but their descendants too."

President Donald Trump's recent remarks on football have enraged one of his strongest supporters in the Senate.

During the FIFA World Cup draw last week, Trump suggested in a stream-of-consciousness moment that Americans should stop using the term "soccer" for association football, and just call it "football" as much of the rest of the world does.

A former Republican lawmaker cringed during a segment on CNN after she was shown a clip of President Donald Trump grading his economy on Tuesday.

Trump told Politico's podcast, "The Conversation," earlier on Tuesday that his economy gets an "A+++++" for its performance. That's despite public polling showing that about half of Americans see the rising cost of living as their top concern heading into the 2026 midterm.

President Donald Trump's Justice Department has come up with a new way to try to pressure the state of Colorado to release Tina Peters, a MAGA-favoring former elections clerk who went to prison for tampering with election equipment to try to prove Trump's 2020 election conspiracy theories.

According to The New Republic, "Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon and the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division are pretending to care about prisoners’ human rights in an apparent effort to get conspiracy theorist, former state official, and convicted 2020 election fraudster Tina Peters out of a Colorado jail."

The Department of Defense has launched a new generative artificial intelligence tool that will help the agency identify and engage military targets, according to a DOD source and an explosive leak reported on by journalist Jessica Burbank and Drop Site News.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced the new AI tool – dubbed “Gemini” – in a Tuesday memo obtained by Burbank, informing all DOD personnel that they are expected to incorporate the technology into their “workflows immediately.” Hegseth wrote that Gemini would help the agency “out-think, out-decide, and out-pace any adversary.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s leadership is deteriorating under the weight of mounting war-crimes allegations, triggering a wave of resignations from Pentagon officials who want no part of the chaos he’s unleashed. Reporting on MS NOW’s Morning Joe, Atlantic correspondent Nancy Youssef said that while Donald Trump isn’t on the brink of firing Hegseth, the fallout from disputed “double-tap” strikes, lawsuits from victims’ families, and a growing stack of questions about his judgment has left his credibility in shambles. Inside the Pentagon, officials fear they’ll end up like Admiral Bradley — carrying out Hegseth’s orders only to shoulder the political and moral blowback he’s created.
