"If you have patriotic masculine men, you're gonna protect Russia," Andrew Tate told RT's Sanchez Effect in an interview that aired Monday. Russia, he continued, "is a very patriotic nation, and they don't fear having a masculine population…"

“The Strategic Petroleum Reserve down by another eight million barrels last week, total of 66 million barrels have been released from the SPR since the [Iran] war started, and you might recall that four years ago, then-candidate Trump, he really blasted President Biden for aggressively draining the SPR ahead of those midterm elections in 2022,” said CNN’s Matt Egan.

David Rothkopf, a columnist for The Daily Beast, said on a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" on Monday that insiders he's spoken with were shocked when Trump appointed Bill Pulte, the administration's former mortgage chief, as the next Director of National Intelligence.

Ana Navarro, a senior political commentator on CNN, snapped at a former Trump campaign official on Monday night after the official defended the president's attacks against NBC News's Kristen Welker during an interview over the weekend.

Welker traveled to Wisconsin to interview President Donald Trump for her Sunday show, "Meet the Press."

Justice Sonia Sotomayor rebuked the Mississippi Supreme Court for applying a problematic standard in the case of Tony Terrell Clark, a Black death row inmate convicted by a jury of 11 white people and one Black juror.

The all-conservative Mississippi Supreme Court denied Clark's latest appeal, which Justice Sotomayor agreed with. However, she wrote this revealed, "A double standard where the State struck Black jurors who took anything but the most hardline pro-death penalty position, but not white jurors who expressed serious doubts about the death penalty."

President Donald Trump's efforts to attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals in New York City on Monday night astounded one political analyst because of how they blew up in the president's face.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) drew widespread mockery after blaming former President Joe Biden for the screwworm infestation threatening Texas cattle, despite the Trump administration's own cuts to monitoring programs designed to prevent it.

Rollins claimed the parasite began making its way toward America under Biden's open borders policy. Marshall went further, claiming migrants "brought this screwworm with them."

President Donald Trump was viciously booed by the crowd at Madison Square Garden on Monday night during the National Anthem for Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs.

ABC cameras caught Trump saluting in his suite while the anthem played, and it was the only time Trump was shown during the introduction. He attended the game with Jared Kushner, his son-in-law, as well as administration officials like Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and Lee Zeldin, who leads the Environmental Protection Agency.
