Law enforcement tasked with protecting President Donald Trump mistakenly talked tactics with a random cameraman, the BBC revealed Sunday.

BBC News reporter Enda McClafferty discussed the incident during a recent on-air interview about Trump's ongoing trip to Ireland, where the president has already spurred an international uproar, mass protests and questions about his cognitive health.

Influential MAGA influencer Laura Loomer took to social media Saturday to dispel claims that she disliked Vice President JD Vance, explaining that her long-running feud with the vice president was only her trying to protect him from “a demon possessed individual.”

“For the record, I do not dislike Vice President Vance. I just have a really good judge of character and the demon possessed trust fund kid who lives in Maine and pals around with jihadists and calls President [Donald] Trump the anti-Christ is a threat to our Vice President,” Loomer wrote on X to her nearly 2 million followers, referencing right-wing figure Tucker Carlson.

The White House lashed out at independent journalist Aaron Rupar Saturday night after he flagged who President Donald Trump brought with him during his trip to Ireland.

“Look who made the trip to Ireland!” Rupar wrote Saturday in a social media post on X to his more than 1.1 million followers, alongside a photograph of Trump’s 35-year-old female aide Natalie Harp, whose unusually close relationship with the president has unsettled the White House.

Republican Senate nominee Mike Rogers attacked his Democratic opponent recently for campaigning “with people who say America deserved 9/11,” but a new report published Saturday exposed Rogers' own checkered history with the terror attack.

On Thursday, Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed criticized Rogers for voting to “deny health care for 9/11 first responders” on two separate occasions. As a U.S. House member, Rogers did, in fact, vote against a 2010 bill designed to provide health care for 9/11 first responders and survivors, arguing at the time that the legislation “jeopardizes the financial health of the United States.”

Georgetown University Professor E.J. Dionne flagged a troubling “paradox” he believed President Donald Trump had gotten himself into, one that he called a “real problem” for the president that could result in widespread “chaos.”

Dionne, also a senior fellow in governance studies at the Brookings Institution, spoke with adjunct professor and columnist Carlos Lozada in an episode of The New York Times’ “The Opinions” podcast published on Saturday, during which the two discussed why they believed Trump appeared “afraid.”

Diesel prices have spiked so high in parts of the United States that some gas stations can no longer display the correct cost, sparking a fresh wave of fury at President Donald Trump for having launched his deeply unpopular war against Iran.

As reported by the Independent on Saturday, some gas station displays in California have shown diesel prices sitting at $9.99, the "maximum price that gas stations can show on their digital displays, which typically only display four digits.” The average cost for a gallon of diesel in the United States reached its all-time high on Friday at $6.06, up from $5.85 last week and up from $3.71 the same time last year.

Fox News’ Johnny Joey Jones struggled on Saturday to calculate how much the average price of gasoline had increased since President Donald Trump launched his deeply unpopular war against Iran, and ultimately conceded that he couldn’t “do math.”

Recent developments in the Middle East conflict have stoked fears that oil prices, which are already far above levels recorded before Trump launched the war, may soon skyrocket. On Feb. 27, the average cost for a gallon of regular gasoline in the United States was $2.98. On Saturday, as noted by Jones, the average cost had soared to $4.31.

Several insiders close to the Trump administration voiced fears that this week’s RNC midterm convention gave off “terrible” optics to voters as the midterms fast approach, Zeteo reported on Saturday.

“It looks bad, I am willing to admit it,” a Trump adviser told Zeteo, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

A total of 106 lawmakers have backed a new effort to compel the Trump administration to release its remaining withheld files relating to Jeffrey Epstein, but with few legislative days remaining, “time is running out,” warned the anti-human-trafficking nonprofit Freedom United.

Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Ro Khanna (D-CA), the original sponsors of last year’s Epstein Files Transparency Act, filed a successor to their successful bill in July, a bill designed to force the Trump administration to release its remaining Epstein-related files. On Sept. 1, Massie filed a discharge petition that, with 218 signatures, would force a vote on the new bill.

Alex Bruesewitz, a prominent adviser to President Donald Trump, issued a plea to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Saturday to “please stay off” television following a disastrous interview in which young Texans viciously booed the GOP lawmaker.

Cruz sat down with ESPN’s “College GameDay” ahead of the University of Texas-Austin Longhorns and the Ohio State Buckeyes football match, but throughout the 10-minute-long interview, young sports fans could be heard chanting “Ted, you suck” and other taunts. Online critics were quick to join in on the mockery of Cruz, leading Bruesewitz to issue his plea.
