President Donald Trump got more bad news on Tuesday, with a new YouGov poll that shows catastrophic numbers for public approval of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

In fact, even one in four Republican voters now support abolishing the agency, according to the new data — and a "record high" among Americans in general, noted Zeteo News' Prem Thakker on X.

The White House found itself under fire for its failure to plan ahead, as Americans find themselves stranded in the Middle East during the U.S. bombing campaign against Iran.

The Trump administration urged Americans to flee 16 Middle Eastern countries as the bombing campaign rages. Desperate citizens trying to escape were instead greeted with a cold shoulder and a recorded message saying the government wouldn't help.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has reportedly agreed to sit for an interview with the House Oversight Committee about his ties to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

On Tuesday, Axios reported that Lutnick volunteered to testify in a deposition after his name appeared in recently released files on Epstein's case.

On Monday Montana's Rep. Ryan Zinke announced he won't seek reelection, causing a shake-up among Republicans. The former Interior secretary blamed health issues for his exit, revealing he's been through "multiple surgeries" since returning to Congress in 2023 to repair injuries from his Navy SEAL days, Politico reported. In a letter, Zinke clarified his injuries are not life threatening and added, "the repair cannot be deferred any longer and recovery will require considerable time with Lola and the family.” Zinke also wrote, “my judgement and experience tell me it is better for Montana and America to have full-time representation in Congress than run the risk of uncertain absence and missed votes.” Zinke joins a handful of GOP members who are retiring ahead of the midterms. Although Republicans brace for elections with their razor-thin majority, Montana's 1st District just became a potential Democratic pickup opportunity. Party operatives had already been circling the district before Zinke's announcement.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) said he was "suspicious" that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) might have committed treason by leaking President Donald Trump's plan to strike Iranian leadership, many of whom are now dead.

On Tuesday, Sen. Johnson spoke to MAGA influencer Benny Johnson on a broadcast titled, "Ilhan Omar LEAKED U.S. Military Attack Plans to IRAN — Treason?"

The Trump administration is urging Americans to flee 16 Middle Eastern countries as the Iran bombing campaign continues — but when desperate citizens actually try to escape, they get a cold shoulder and a recorded message saying the government won't help, according to a new report.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio rolled out a video Tuesday morning directing panicked Americans to call a State Department hotline. Callers are then treated to the automated message: “Please do not rely on the U.S. government for assisted departure or evacuation. At this time, there are currently no United States evacuation points."

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) confronted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, presenting evidence that she falsely denied blaming White House adviser Stephen Miller for statements about protester killings. Noem initially claimed she never blamed Miller, citing only "anonymous sources," but Kennedy read her direct on-the-record quote from January 27, 2026: "Everything I've done, I've done at the direction of the president and Stephen." The hearing addressed the deaths of protesters Renee Good and Alex Pretti, killed by DHS agents. Kennedy questioned why Noem labeled the dead demonstrators domestic terrorists. When confronted with her own words, Noem deflected, claiming she was "working to get as much information to the American people as possible" and refused to address the contradiction. Kennedy emphasized the quote was directly attributed to her, not from unnamed sources.
