Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones claimed to have "sources" within President Donald Trump's administration that were orchestrating a retroactive impeachment of former President Barack Obama.

Jeffrey Clark, Trump's acting administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the Office of Management and Budget, was handcuffed outside his home in the summer of 2022. Then-special counsel Jack Smith found he was among six co-conspirators who attempted to illegally overturn the results of the 2020 election and block a peaceful transfer of power.

Far-right activist Laura Loomer has become such a close confidant of President Donald Trump and has become so influential over his hirings and firings that White House insiders are covertly recruiting her to go after each other and ruin their rivals' chances of promotions, The Free Press reported on Thursday.

In recent months, Loomer, an avowed conspiracy theorist and 9/11 truther who describes herself as a "proud Islamophobe" and a white nationalist sympathizer, has personally been responsible, through her social media rants, for some of Trump's nominees being ousted or withdrawn, with a key example being a surgeon general pick she proclaimed had fabricated medical credentials and was too pro-COVID vaccine.

President Donald Trump's government was in court on Thursday to defend his unilateral takeover of U.S. tariffs despite the Constitution allocating the job to Congress.

Writing for Politico, legal reporter Kyle Cheney characterized the judges as asking questions "sharply."

President Donald Trump signed off on a series of letters Thursday to 17 American pharmaceutical companies demanding they lower drug prices for Medicaid patients within 60 days, and under threat that his administration would “deploy every tool in our arsenal” to gain compliance.

The letters were previewed on Thursday by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, shortly before Trump posted all 17 of them to social media. Sent to major pharmaceutical companies like Boehringer Ingelheim and AbbVie, Trump demanded the companies extend to Americans what’s known as "most-favored-nation" drug pricing, which would require offering drugs at prices similar to those of other nations.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard suggested that some Democrats were guilty of crimes because they had stopped using the X social media platform.

During a Thursday interview on The Blaze, host Glenn Beck noted that former Secretary of State John Kerry had made his X account private, and Democratic attorney Marc Elias had also stopped using the platform.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) caused a stir Thursday by entertaining President Donald Trump's suggestion that he could serve a third term.

The Kentucky Republican floated the idea, which Trump has raised in the past, discussing his opposition to a bill introduced by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) that would prohibit members of Congress and their spouses, as well as the president and vice president, from trading stock.

One of Jeffrey Epstein's former lawyers, Alan Dershowitz, is claiming people on Martha's Vineyard are discriminating against him, so he intends to sue his way into the community. But an anti-LBGTQ ruling from the Supreme Court could doom his lawsuit.

Dershowitz, who defended President Donald Trump during his first impeachment hearing, was caught on video accusing a local vendor of discriminating against him. The vendor allegedly refused to serve Dershowitz, who complained about the incident during his Rumble show. Dershowitz thinks that it's due to his support for Israel, not his association with Trump or Epstein.

A number of political rivals of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth were targeted with polygraph tests to “undercut” them, four insiders told The Guardian in a report published Thursday.
