Fox News legal contributor Jonathan Turley expressed surprise after President Donald Trump's Department of Justice reportedly indicted former FBI Director James Comey on charges related to an Instagram photo.

During a Fox News segment on Tuesday, host John Roberts reported that Comey had been indicted in connection with a photograph of seashells that spelled out "8647," which some have interpreted as a threat to the president's life.

The performance of the Department of Homeland Security chief Markwayne Mullin has become a Rorschach test for Donald Trump’s MAGA followers, who have already expressed widely conflicting opinions about the job he has been doing, one month after he replaced controversial Kristi Noem.

According to the Washington Post's David Nakamura, some conservative anti-immigration advocates understand the political constraints Mullin faces after Noem's controversial tenure cratered Trump's immigration approval ratings. But another faction wants immediate, aggressive action regardless of political consequences.

Political analyst David Pakman highlighted the disconnect between President Donald Trump's recount of the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting versus video footage of the actual event, arguing Trump's denials demonstrate concerning mental and physical decline.

Trump claimed he "didn't make it easy" on Secret Service agents and was fighting to stay and assess the situation. However, video from the White House Correspondents' Dinner shows Trump surrounded by Secret Service agents struggling to walk off stage, apparently falling during the evacuation.

The Trump administration has heavily promoted the larger tax refunds expected this year as a selling point for Republicans in the midterm elections, but two conservative economists refuted that narrative on Tuesday, arguing that, in aggregate, the Trump administration’s policies were, in effect, a tax increase.

Signed into law by President Donald Trump last year, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act extended a number of tax cuts implemented during his first term – tax cuts that largely benefit the wealthiest Americans, and at the expense of social safety net programs like Medicaid and food assistance. The savings for “the average American,” however, were more than offset by the price hikes caused by Trump’s tariff policy, conservative economists Phil Gramm and Michael Solon argued Tuesday in an op-ed published in The Wall Street Journal.

Major changes could be coming to U.S. passports as part of President Donald Trump's widening effort to remake the government in his own image.

The State Department is finalizing a radical redesign of the U.S. passport that will feature the 79-year-old president's portrait, according to sources with knowledge of the project who shared images currently under consideration with The Bulwark.

Rep. Dan Webster (R-FL) announced that he would not seek another term in Congress this year.

Webster, who has served three terms, revealed his retirement in a statement on Tuesday.

Amid the widely publicized White House visit Tuesday by England’s King Charles III, one photographer captured a remarkable moment on camera, one that appeared to show President Donald Trump, as one CBS News reporter put it, patting “the first lady on the tooshie.”

“Trump patted the first lady on the tooshie during [the] arrival ceremony for king and queen,” wrote CBS News reporter Jennifer Jacobs in a social media post on X, alongside an image of the photograph in question, taken by Associated Press photographer Jacquelyn Martin.

Georgetown law professor Steve Vladek expressed concern about the Supreme Court's Monday order allowing Texas to implement a new election map previously blocked by a lower court for constituting racial gerrymandering.

The three-judge panel had ruled the map illegal under Texas law, but the Supreme Court cleared its use by incorporating reasoning from a December hearing.
