A local prosecutor lobbed a subtle threat at President Donald Trump's immigration forces during a podcast interview on Wednesday.

Mary Moriarty, the Hennepin County, Minnesota, prosecutor, discussed the latest development on the investigation into the killing of Alex Pretti and Renee Good during the Trump administration's "Operation Metro Surge" on a new episode of "All Rise News" with Adam Klasfeld. Last week, the FBI sent a formal letter to local authorities notifying them that they will not be sharing evidence collected during the investigation, a move Moriarty said "wasn't a surprise."

The estranged husband of a congressional aide who died by setting herself on fire is breaking his five-month silence with explosive accusations, speaking out to protect his late wife's reputation and to hold the Texas congressman accountable with whom she alleged she had an affair.

Adrian Aviles claimed Wednesday to the San Antonio Express-News that U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) "abused his power" by seducing his late wife, Regina Ann "Regi" Santos-Aviles, who worked in the congressman's Uvalde office.

President Donald Trump is reportedly mulling an unconventional new strategy to try to turn around his flagging polls ahead of the midterm elections — and former Joe Biden press secretary turned MS NOW commentator Jen Psaki urged him to go for it.

"I just want to start with something that happened actually last night, because last night, Trump's top political advisers met for a private meeting," said Psaki. "This included his former campaign manager, his pollster, his chief of staff. They all huddled together at the private members-only Capitol Hill Club in D.C. to discuss what they think should be Trump's midterm strategy. And according to the Wall Street Journal's Josh Dawsey, a big part of that crack team's plan is to encourage Trump's Cabinet secretaries to visit competitive districts."

Federal immigration officers are routinely lying to people watching and tracking them, alleging they're violating federal law, with legal experts clapping back that the vast majority of community observers are simply exercising their constitutional rights.

A Minneapolis-area woman named Jess learned this the hard way when agents smashed her car window with a baton and detained her for eight hours for legally tracking U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity.

Vice President JD Vance is having an "unnerving" impact on US allies, and some of them "freeze like a deer in headlights" when he's brought up in conversation, according to a report.

Vance's name has been tossed around as the eventual heir to the MAGA throne once the second Trump administration ends in 2028. While some allies see Vance as a more predictable policymaker than Trump, others are growing concerned that he may throw a wrench into global affairs because he lacks sufficient knowledge of the world and is willing to put ideology over reality, Politico reported.

A group of criminal defense attorneys has launched a war against the Trump Department of Justice's "abnormal behavior," according to a report.

The lawyers banded together and created a tool called Case Tracker, a database of federal cases in which eyewitness testimony undermines government charges. The tracker is sponsored by The National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, KBPS reported.

A trio of House Democratic lawmakers sent a letter to multiple Trump administration agency heads demanding a classified briefing on the bungled operation in El Paso, Texas, airspace that triggered a shutdown of the airport.

The closure, which was initially set to last 10 days but was lifted after seven hours, still has multiple agencies offering conflicting reports of what happened — and frenzied finger-pointing at high levels.

A federal judge held a lawyer from President Donald Trump's Department of Justice in contempt on Wednesday for failing to return a detainee's identification paperwork after the detainee was released from immigration custody, according to a report.

Judge Laura Provinzino of the District Court of Minnesota held Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Matt Isihara in civil contempt for failing to return the documents. Beginning on Friday, Isihara will be responsible for paying a $500 for every day the plaintiff is not in receipt of his ID documents, according to the order.

Communities around the country are rising up to oppose Immigration and Customs Enforcement building new prison facilities in their backyards — and some of the people leading the charge are President Donald Trump's own voters.

According to The New York Times, "Stacy Bradley voted for President Trump because of his border policies, and she likes that he has restored 'law and order.' But she is unsettled by one aspect of his immigration agenda. Last month, the federal government bought a warehouse next to her cheerleading gym in Surprise, Ariz., which the administration plans to convert into a detention center for up to 1,500 immigrants."

Donald Trump Jr. had no valid excuse when trying to defend the crypto firm he helped found taking in a $500 million investment from a company tied to the United Arab Emirates, David Kirkpatrick of The New Yorker told CNN's Jake Tapper on Wednesday.

This comes after the firm, World Liberty Financial, issued a statement to CNN denying any link between the Emirati investment and a controversial agreement to render chips to the Middle Eastern country.

Political analysts were aghast on Wednesday after ProPublica published a "soul-crushing" report about 911 calls made by people detained in an Immigration and Customs Enforcement center in Texas.

ProPublica recently investigated the living conditions at the Dilley detention center outside of San Antonio, Texas, where the Trump administration has sent roughly 3,500 detainees since they reopened the facility.

"60 Minutes" star Anderson Cooper delivered a stunning rebuke to CBS News's new MAGA-friendly boss Bari Weiss — and the message was unmistakable, insiders say.

Months after Weiss desperately courted the veteran broadcaster to helm "CBS Evening News," Cooper chose to walk away from his two-decade tenure as correspondent entirely, effectively rejecting the network altogether.

Former Trump administration White House lawyer Ty Cobb delivered a dire warning Wednesday on MS NOW about the growing network of Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facilities that are planned and funded — and suggested that Trump having that much detention power and resources at his disposal is horrifying.

Cobb's warning came in the middle of a discussion with anchor Ari Melber, about the possibility ICE might try to engage in election interference by stationing agents at polling places.
