President Donald Trump has moved to designate "antifa," or the broadly-defined collective of activists fighting against what they perceive to be fascism in America, as a terrorist organization — but an intended boast by far-right podcaster Glenn Beck accidentally revealed the effort is already "falling apart," wrote Ellie Quinlan Houghtaling for The New Republic.

Specifically, Beck said earlier this week that FBI agents from the Trump administration came to his house to ask him about everything he knows about antifa operations. "So we dove in headfirst and we analyzed the antifa network," said Beck on his show. "To say the FBI was interested in this might be an understatement. Let's just say the FBI is turning over every single stone."

Former FBI Director James Comey formally notified the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia that his attorneys would challenge President Donald Trump's appointment of Lindsey Halligan as an interim U.S. Attorney.

In a notice filed on Tuesday, Comey's attorneys said he would file his motion "challenging the lawfulness of the appointment of the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia" on Oct. 20.

With a temporary victory in hand after getting a tenuous ceasefire in place in Gaza, Donald Trump returned to the U.S., where the government is shut down, the shadow of the Jeffrey Epstein files hovers over him — and now Wall Street investors are being told by a key financial analyst that the U.S. is going broke.

According to a report from Fortune’s Eleanor Pringle, JPMorgan Asset Management’s chief global strategist David Kelly warned this week that financial ruin is on the horizon.

A journalist whose interview with Prince Andrew ended his royal career predicts Jeffrey Epstein's files will ruin more reputations.

The Duke of York invited BBC's Emily Maitlis into the palace in November 2019 to discuss his friendship with the disgraced financier shortly after his death in jail — an interview widely considered to be an own goal for the prince, who denied having sex with a 17-year-old sex trafficking victim.

President Donald Trump's upcoming tariffs on furniture were designed to be a bailout for the local furniture industry in the critical battleground state of North Carolina — but on the ground, manufacturers there have mixed feelings at best — and many are fearful the new import duties could actually hurt their local economy, CNN reported on Tuesday.

Alex Shuford, who runs Rock House Farm Furniture in Hickory, should theoretically benefit from the tariffs — but he told CNN he's worried, because his company doesn't just manufacture furniture, it also imports it and makes around 20 percent of its income from those imported items.

The Donald Trump-allied group America First Legal was denied review of a civil case that alleged staff at a Colorado school failed to inform parents about an optional after-school club meeting — and the speakers and discussions it involved.

SCOTUS Blog describes the case as having to do with "whether a school district may discard the presumption that fit parents act in the best interests of their children and arrogate to itself the right to direct the care, custody, and control of their children."

President Donald Trump's son, Eric Trump, told Fox News host Steve Doocy how the White House is being gradually modified to resemble the Mar-a-Lago resort.

During a Tuesday interview on Fox News, Doocy praised Mar-a-Lago's "fantastic view" of the ocean.

A federal judge in Rhode Island has accused the Trump administration of defying its order prohibiting officials from withholding Federal Emergency Management Agency funds from jurisdictions that refuse to cooperate with Trump's immigration policies.

U.S. District Judge William Smith in Rhode Island initially blocked the administration from enforcing this policy in September, ruling that it ran afoul of the Administrative Procedure Act.

Alex Jones, the far-right conspiracy theorist and host of InfoWars, suffered a major setback Tuesday when the Supreme Court rejected his appeal of a $1.4 billion defamation judgment over his false claims about the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

Jones has promoted theories that the 2012 school shooting was a hoax involving crisis actors. These claims, which he repeated extensively on his shows, led to a lawsuit being filed against him by families of the victims and first responders, who said they’ve faced threats and harassment due to Jones’ claims.

Conservative author and political commentator David Brooks is calling on Americans to launch a “mass movement” to combat the Trump administration’s push “into authoritarianism,” and is proposing an unlikely alliance as the best approach for such a movement to gain traction.

“Today, populists and progressives generally occupy opposing political parties. But as Richard Hofstadter noted in his classic 'The Age of Reform,' at the turn of the 20th century Populists and Progressives formed an alliance,” Brooks wrote in an op-ed published Tuesday in The Atlantic.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino slammed The New York Times Tuesday following its report exposing alleged rifts within the Justice Department, decrying the outlet’s coverage as “trash.”

Based on discussions with seven current and former Trump administration officials, The New York Times published a story Monday exposing the alleged “mutual disdain” that both Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche shared for FBI Director Kash Patel.

A new venture by the publisher of First Lady Melania Trump’s autobiography is giving fans of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement access to members of the president’s administration.

That, in turn, has led participants in the weekly “MAHA Action Media Hub” conference call to bizarre cameos from the movement's celebrities, including Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Mehmet Oz, a “recurring star” on the call, as well as “a shirtless Russell Brand [who] calls in from what appears to be a bathtub," reports Margaret Manto of NOTUS.
