Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) became the first Republican member of Congress to formally demand information from the Justice Department about President Donald Trump's $1.776 billion "anti-Weaponization" fund, which he created as a settlement with his own administration after dropping a $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS for failing to secure his tax information.

The fund, which was not authorized by Congress and not approved by the court overseeing his lawsuit, purports to be able to pay out money to any Trump ally who was a victim of "lawfare." Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has refused to rule out payouts to perpetrators of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

YouTube journalist Coffeezilla says a data vulnerability on TrumpMobile.com exposed customer information and indicated that the company's reported sales figures are likely fiction.

In a video posted Tuesday, Coffeezilla, whose real name is Stephen Findeisen, said he was among the customers whose personal data was exposed by the security flaw, including his mailing address and email. The vulnerability, he said, was flagged to the Trump Mobile team multiple times before he went public.

Rep. Thomas Massie's (R-KY) primary loss on Tuesday was another example of President Donald Trump's grip on the Republican Party, according to some political experts. But a new analysis suggests that Massie may get the last laugh against Trump before all is said and done.

Ben Jacobs, a political reporter for Slate, wrote in a new column that Massie appears to be growing a new "loud minority" coalition to fight against Trump. Jacobs attended Massie's watch party on Tuesday, where he noticed a peculiar energy in the air around a man who had just lost his race to the Trump-endorsed former Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin and his agency are touting a major federal law enforcement presence at this summer's FIFA World Cup — even as new data suggests the tournament may be headed for an economic disappointment.

ICE and Homeland Security Investigations will work alongside Customs and Border Protection to combat human trafficking, drug smuggling, and counterfeit tickets and merchandise during the tournament, according to an official ICE post on X.

Speaking with host Antonia Hylton on Wednesday afternoon, MS NOW’s Mychael Schnell pointed out that many Republicans who voted to oust Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) were woefully ignorant about the reasons for voting for his opponent and cast their votes purely based on the president's endorsement.

Reporting from Kentucky about the pivotal election that will likely hand Massie’s House seat to political neophyte Ed Gallrein, Schnell said that there was a great deal of misinformation that formed voters’ decisions, including a belief that Massie had voted to impeach Trump which is not true.

There could not be a worse time for Donald Trump’s pick to take over as chair of the Federal Reserve from Jerome Powell, with economic indicators trending towards a possible interest rate increase at a time when the president expects cuts.

That is according to Nobel prize-winning economist Paul Krugman, who wrote on his Substack on Wednesday that newly-appointed Kevin Warsh may find himself as the lone vote opposing a rate increase, or leaving the current rate in place until the next meeting.
