Former Senator Claire McCaskill warned that the Trump administration could be undone by last month’s controversial boat strike in the Caribbean, which reportedly targeted survivors clinging to wreckage — actions that whistleblowers say may constitute war crimes. Appearing on MSNBC, McCaskill slammed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for withholding video footage, arguing the administration’s secrecy proves how damaging the strike is. She also criticized Trump’s handling of the military and highlighted growing Republican concern, calling the episode a “story that will consume” the administration until fully exposed.

Host cities for the 2026 World Cup are staring down a combined $250 million shortfall after what insiders call a disastrous, lopsided deal with FIFA — one so restrictive cities can’t even partner with local businesses to recoup costs. With FIFA keeping nearly all expected revenue and governments left holding the bag, sources describe the event as “the worst deal in World Cup history,” raising fears of cutbacks, financial desperation, and political fallout tied to Donald Trump’s close ties to FIFA leadership.

Nobel Prize–winning economist Paul Krugman said Donald Trump could have avoided today’s economic backlash if he’d simply kept Biden’s policies with a few “cosmetic changes.” Instead, Krugman argued, Trump’s sweeping tariffs and denial of economic problems have backfired, leaving him unable to blame Democrats without admitting his own failures — and turning his so-called upcoming “affordability tour” into a political disaster.

A rising Gen Z MAGA star with millions of followers is openly breaking with the movement’s standard-bearer, signaling a crack in Trump’s online youth base. Conservative influencer and Fox News analyst Brett Cooper told NPR she’s not interested in parroting Trump’s every line, criticizing him for claiming Americans lack high-skilled talent and for brushing off soaring prices as a “Democratic hoax.” Cooper — whose YouTube show reaches a massive audience — said her disappointment reflects the mood of young conservatives who don’t view loyalty to Trump as a requirement.

Donald Trump erupted on Truth Social Tuesday night, accusing The New York Times of committing “sedition” and even “treason” for reporting on his apparent physical and cognitive decline. Fresh off a meandering Pennsylvania speech that drifted far from its billed focus on affordability, Trump insisted he is the “hardest-working” president in history and raged that any suggestion he’s “slowing up” is a deliberate lie. He attacked the outlet as “Enemies of the People” and said the country would be better off if it “ceased publication,” even as medical experts point to recent cognitive tests, MRIs, and visible physical changes as signs of his deteriorating health.

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins put a Trump-aligned congresswoman on the defensive after a Washington Post report alleged she hurled profanities at TSA staff during an airport blowup. Pressed on quotes calling workers “f------ idiots” and “f------ incompetent,” Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) denied everything — even accusing police officers who documented the incident of lying. As Collins repeatedly challenged her denials, the congresswoman insisted the entire report was “100% fictitious,” dismissing the detailed transcripts and footage as false.

Political commentator Jim Acosta warned that Donald Trump “may not make it to the end of this term,” arguing on Fast Politics that the 79-year-old president is showing stark signs of decline just a year into his second run in the White House. Acosta said Trump’s inner circle has shifted from treating him like a “dear leader” to a “goodnight grandpa,” with cabinet members effectively soothing him through meetings as he avoids rallies, press conferences, and anything requiring sustained stamina. Describing a president who seems “extremely tired,” increasingly detached, and far removed from the figure he covered on the campaign trail, Acosta said Trump’s fading public presence — from phoned-in events to rambling outbursts — raises real questions about whether he can handle the rest of his presidency.

White House adviser Stephen Miller erupted on Fox News in a furious rant claiming that entire generations of immigrants and their descendants “fail” in America, singling out Somali immigrants as he shouted about crime, welfare, and “replicating” supposedly failing societies in the U.S. Miller declared that post-1965 immigration was the “largest experiment” ever inflicted on a civilization and blamed immigrants for everything from test scores to public policy challenges, escalating into a full-blown meltdown as he insisted the country would “replicate the conditions” of nations he labeled failures.

Gene Simmons, legendary frontman and bassist for KISS, sharply criticized lawmakers on Tuesday while testifying before the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Intellectual Property.

Speaking in support of the American Music Fairness Act — a bill that would require AM/FM radio stations to pay royalties for sound recordings — Simmons argued that a decades-old loophole has deprived generations of American artists, from Bing Crosby to Elvis Presley, of fair compensation whenever their songs are played on the radio.

A federal judge ripped into the Trump administration for “misleading” Epstein victims and the public after the DOJ sought to unseal Ghislaine Maxwell’s records while pretending it was a major act of transparency. Judge Paul Engelmayer accused the department of using the move as a distraction from the looming court-ordered release of its full Epstein files, blasting officials for paying “lip service” to victims while pushing a request that added nothing to public knowledge. The rebuke landed as Trump faced intensifying scrutiny over his past ties to Epstein and pushes for grand jury testimony critics say is meant to divert attention from far more revealing DOJ documents.

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.

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.

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.
