A Department of Homeland Security whistleblower has allegedly released the personal information of about 4,500 Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol employees to an activist database in what may be the largest personnel data breach in the agency’s history, with the fallout tied to outrage over the fatal ICE shooting of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. According to reports, the leaked dataset — shared with the volunteer-run ICE List project — includes names, work emails, phone numbers and job roles for thousands of frontline agents and supervisors, prompting concerns about safety, internal dissent at DHS and the risks of exposing federal law-enforcement personnel to public scrutiny.

President Donald Trump’s expanding use of presidential pardons is eroding morale inside the Justice Department, according to more than a dozen current and former federal prosecutors who spoke to The Washington Post. By granting clemency to high-profile figures ranging from disgraced ex–Rep. George Santos to reality TV stars, Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, and hundreds of Jan. 6 defendants, Trump has undone years of investigative and trial work, prosecutors said, leaving many questioning whether accountability still matters. Career officials described the pardons as a gut punch that nullifies jury verdicts, vacates restitution for victims, and wipes away painstakingly built cases, including complex financial prosecutions. Even some Trump supporters inside law enforcement said they were baffled by certain pardons, arguing that they appeared to be based on misleading lobbying rather than the facts of the cases.

A columnist detailed how White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller has shaped some of the Trump administration’s harshest policies, from immigration crackdowns to birthright citizenship attacks, portraying him as a central force driving authoritarian impulses. The column emphasized that while Miller craves power and aims to inspire fear, he is ultimately still just a man, urging critics to confront his dangerous influence with both vigilance and ridicule.

Kyle Langford, a Republican-turned-Democrat in California, is now running for Congress despite previously calling Auschwitz his “0% Unemployment Plan.” Langford shared a photo of himself at the Nazi concentration camp and claimed his plan would “stabilize California,” drawing condemnation from the Auschwitz Memorial as a “profound moral failure.” He will compete for Rep. Julia Brownley’s vacated 26th District seat, raising alarm over his shocking rhetoric and poor judgment.

An anti-ICE activist says she was effectively hired as a deportation officer despite openly opposing the agency, exposing what she described as shockingly lax recruitment and screening practices. Slate columnist Laura Jedeed revealed she received a final job offer, complete with a duty station and start date, even though medical, fitness, and background checks were marked complete before they occurred — and despite her public record of harsh criticism of ICE and the Trump administration. Jedeed said her experience suggests the agency is prioritizing speed and a willingness to enforce deportations over basic due diligence, as recruiters emphasized pushing “as many guns and badges out in the field as possible.” She warned the episode points to a “leaky ship” inside ICE, with minimal oversight and a troubling drive to rapidly expand on-the-ground enforcement.

President Donald Trump took to social media Monday to issue a menacing “day of reckoning and retribution” warning to Minnesota after weeks of intense backlash to a federal immigration sweep and the fatal ICE shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis. Trump’s Truth Social post blasted the state’s leaders and insisted the surge of federal agents was necessary to rid neighborhoods of “deadly criminals,” even as critics and local officials have decried the operation as heavy-handed and unnecessary, and protests continue to swell across the state and the country.

President Donald Trump reportedly bristled after Exxon Mobil CEO Darren Woods bluntly told him that Venezuela remains “uninvestable,” undercutting the president’s push for U.S. oil giants to pour billions into rebuilding the country’s oil sector after Nicolás Maduro’s capture. According to Bloomberg, Woods raised basic concerns about legal protections, commercial frameworks, and long-term returns — comments that infuriated Trump, who later complained the executive was “playing too cute” and threatened to freeze Exxon out of Venezuela. Industry experts say Woods was simply stating reality, noting that despite Trump’s pressure, the financial and political risks of investing in Venezuela remain massive and unresolved.

At least four senior Justice Department officials resigned in protest after the Trump administration declined to investigate the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Good by an ICE officer in Minneapolis, according to multiple sources. The departures from the Civil Rights Division’s criminal section signal deep frustration with Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon’s decision to forgo a probe into whether the officer unlawfully used deadly force, despite video evidence contradicting administration claims. The mass exit marks the most significant DOJ resignation wave since Trump’s return to office and underscores growing internal dissent over what critics say is a pattern of shielding law enforcement tied to the administration’s aggressive immigration agenda.

A prominent political columnist sparked alarm Monday by arguing that recent behavior from President Donald Trump shows parts of his brain “just aren’t working anymore,” with aides and allies exploiting what he described as a growing “mental vacancy” to push extreme agendas. On The Daily Beast Podcast, the columnist pointed to Trump’s unauthorized attack on Venezuela, saber-rattling over Greenland, an unprecedented investigation into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and bizarre social posts claiming he’s Venezuela’s leader as signs of accelerating decline. The remarks amplify ongoing concerns about Trump’s cognitive state as he navigates increasingly erratic executive actions that critics say are destabilizing U.S. foreign policy and governance.

A buried exchange in Donald Trump’s sprawling New York Times interview is now setting off alarm bells after the president declared that the only thing restraining his power on the world stage is his own “morality.” Writing in The Hill, Bill Press said the remark initially sounded so absurd he assumed Trump meant “mortality,” not morality — before realizing the president likely meant exactly what he said. Trump also brushed off international law as irrelevant, insisting he didn’t “need” it, a combination Press warned paints a chilling picture of unchecked authority resting solely on a man whose record, critics argue, offers little evidence of moral restraint.

A Trump administration official lashed out Monday after leaked emails revealed the EPA plans to abandon its decades-old practice of assigning a dollar value to lives saved by pollution regulations — while continuing to calculate costs to industry. The shift, first reported by The New York Times, would make it easier to roll back limits on deadly air pollutants like fine particulate matter and ozone, a move critics say favors corporate profits over public health. EPA chief Lee Zeldin angrily denied the agency was ignoring human lives, insisting health impacts would still be considered even if not monetized, as administration allies dismissed concerns and attacked the press.

President Donald Trump went into full panic mode on Truth Social as the Supreme Court prepares to rule on the legality of his sweeping tariffs, warning that an adverse decision could cost the U.S. hundreds of billions — or even trillions — of dollars. Trump claimed repayment would be “almost impossible” and repeatedly suggested the nation would be economically crippled if the court rules against him. His administration has argued the tariffs are justified under emergency powers tied to trade deficits, a rationale that has already drawn skepticism from several justices. With the court appearing unconvinced, Trump’s increasingly frantic rhetoric underscores growing fears that his signature trade policy could soon collapse under legal scrutiny.

After President Donald Trump warned Cuba to “make a deal” or face dire consequences, one of his former national security aides went on Fox Business to openly boast that the U.S. could starve the island into submission within days by cutting off Venezuelan oil and money. The remarks followed the administration’s unprecedented attack on Venezuela and capture of Nicolás Maduro, with Trump allies now openly signaling that Cuba could be next. Critics say the comments underscore how Trump’s foreign policy is sliding into raw coercion, with U.S. officials casually discussing civilian suffering as a negotiating tool while television hosts cheer an expanding list of nations in Washington’s crosshairs.
