Jimmy Kimmel apparently drew blood with his monologue Tuesday night mocking the value of Donald Trump's social media company.

The late-night talk show host skewered the plunging value of Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent company to his Truth Social platform, during a monologue that warned Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump that "daddy is running out of money."

Senate candidate Kari Lake became the latest Republican to invoke the specter of political violence, and the co-hosts of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" expressed their disgust toward this alarming trend.

The failed Arizona gubernatorial candidate urged supporters to "put on the armor of God" and "strap on a Glock" ahead of the 2024 election, and host Joe Scarborough placed those comments into the same context as numerous calls for violence from Donald Trump and recent remarks by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) suggesting that protesters should be tossed from the Golden Gate Bridge for blocking traffic.

Share prices in Truth Social's parent company have been taking another beating this week, and CNN's John Berman found himself astonished at just how much the stock has tanked in such a short time.

In discussing the massive slide in Trump Media and Technology's share value, Berman noted that shares are now down more than 70 percent from their all-time high just weeks ago.

Donald Trump has apparently dozed off during each of the first two days of his criminal trial, and MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire said allies are concerned about the "physical toll" of sitting through hours of courtroom proceedings on the 77-year-old former president.

Judge Juan Merchan has already told the ex-president he must attend the trial or face potential jail time, and those who know Trump understand that he lacks discipline and will likely find it hard to control himself in the courtroom during a trial that's expected to last for more than a month.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Tuesday accused her Republican colleagues of dangerously trying to cloak their own legislative impotence in a flurry of anti-Iran bills—including a bipartisan proposal to ban Americans from traveling to the country.

"Following last weekend's unprecedented response by Iran to Israel's attack on its consulate, the Republican majority is explicitly leveraging a series of bills to further escalate tensions in the Middle East," Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said in a statement. "This is a blatant attempt to distract from their own incompetence."

Donald Trump was admonished by Judge Juan Merchan this week for making comments toward a prospective juror on the second day of his criminal trial, and attorney George Conway said he wasn't surprised by the outburst.

Seven jurors have already been sworn in after a brisk second day of jury selection, and Conway told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" that he was surprised by how quickly the pace has been so far in the unprecedented criminal trial of a former president.

Hardline Trump adviser Stephen Miller drew derision this week after he described former President Donald Trump, a.k.a., the mastermind behind the gold "Never Surrender" sneakers, as a "style icon."

Miller made these remarks during an appearance on Fox News where he hyped up his boss's fashion sense to be on par with Gianni Versace.

Attorney Alina Habba said Tuesday former President Trump was likely seen dozing during the first day of his hush money trial because court proceedings are so boring it's "painful."

Habba made two television appearances during which she defended Trump's right to snooze — much mocked on social media — the first of which was with Fox News' Martha MacCallum.

Former President Donald Trump experienced a fresh form of humiliation during the second day of his criminal hush money trial, listening to a cavalcade of negative social media posts about him without reacting, according to new piece from Daily Beast writer David Mack.

Mack revels in "the Joy of making Trump listen to mean tweets About himself" in his new op-ed.

Following the second day of his criminal trial in Manhattan, former President Donald Trump was interviewed on the far-right Newsmax TV while he visited a bodega in New York City — and wasted no time in lobbing yet another attack on the criminal justice system.

"Do you believe you violated the gag order?" a reporter asked the former president.
