President Donald Trump responded to last month's smackdown by the U.S. Supreme Court by imposing his will over every bastion of American power, according to new reporting.

After the court's right-wing struck down his tariff regime 6-3, the 79-year-old president has sidestepped Congress and smashed norms in a 14-day effort to reshape the global order, reported Axios.

Department of Homeland Security officials expressed relief rather than shock at Kristi Noem's firing, according to CNN correspondent Priscilla Alvarez. DHS insiders have spent months frustrated with Noem's leadership and her relationship with special government employee Corey Lewandowski, who was supposed to serve temporarily. One official told Alvarez, "People are tired of their s---. Honestly, it's been unreal." The agency experienced significant turnover under Trump's administration as DHS pivoted entirely toward mass deportation operations. Officials were particularly critical of Noem's mishandling of the Minneapolis crisis following the deaths of Americans Renee Good and Alex Pretti, killed by ICE agents. Noem called them "domestic terrorists" and refused to apologize despite lawmaker requests. These missteps, combined with her controversial leadership style, ultimately sealed her fate.

Political analysts and observers were outraged on Thursday after the White House posted its most recent "propaganda" video about the Iran war.

The White House published a montage of strikes against Iranian targets interspersed with clips from popular action movies and television shows. The video was captioned, "JUSTICE THE AMERICAN WAY," on X.

CNN's Abby Phillip delivered a brutal fact-check on Thursday over President Donald Trump's "regime change" ambitions in Iran.

Trump gave an exclusive interview to Axios on Thursday, where he claimed that he should play a role in picking Iran's next leader. Those comments seem to follow in line with one of his stated ambitions for striking Iran in the first place, which he said was to create the conditions for the Iranian people to rise up and take over their government.

President Donald Trump fired Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem on Thursday, replacing her with Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), a former MMA fighter. Noem's removal followed two brutal days of congressional testimony where lawmakers questioned her spending on luxury planes, a heated blanket incident, and an unauthorized $220 million self-promotion ad campaign. Trump confirmed to GOP lawmakers he didn't approve the advertising spending. Noem also faced direct questioning under oath about rumored romantic involvement with Corey Lewandowski, with her husband present. Trump announced Noem would be demoted to "Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas," a newly created position. Democratic leaders, including Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, celebrated her departure while criticizing her record. Social media responses ranged from celebrations to harsh critiques, with critics arguing Trump fired her because she embarrassed him, not for endangering citizens.

A former GOP speechwriter flagged a "bigger risk" that President Donald Trump just created after he fired Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

On Thursday morning, Trump posted on Truth Social that he was replacing Noem with Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), effective on March 31. Noem was given another position, Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas, for an initiative that Trump said he will announce more details on later.

Democratic Gov. Jared Polis appears to be dangling clemency for an ally of President Donald Trump's who is currently serving a nine-year prison sentence for election-related crimes.

Polis said on Wednesday that Tina Peters, a convicted felon and former Colorado county clerk, must show "contrition and apologize for her actions" if he is going to commute her sentence, journalist Kyle Clark with 9News reported. That led Clark to question whether Peters could have her sentence commuted if she faked an apology, and it appears that the answer is yes, he said on Thursday.

With President Donald Trump firing Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, his new replacement, Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), will be in the spotlight.
