Convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has reportedly been cleared to leave prison on work release.

Podcast host Allison Gill obtained information about Maxwell's security score, sex offender waiver, and other details after the former partner of Jeffrey Epstein was moved to a minimum-security prison in Texas.

President Donald Trump lashed out Tuesday at Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon over his continued criticism of the president’s tariff policy, telling the CEO he ‘ought to just focus on being a DJ.”

“I think that David should go out and get himself a new economist or, maybe, he ought to just focus on being a DJ, and not bother running a major financial institution,” Trump wrote Tuesday in an online post on his social media platform Truth Social.

"Morning Joe" co-host Joe Scarborough faced some fierce resistance from MSNBC colleague Symone Sanders Townsend after he defended Donald Trump's plan to take over the Washington, D.C, police force with an emergency declaration.

After Scarborough and his panel spent much of the morning claiming they believe the city has serious crime problems, despite statistics showing crime is on the decline, Sanders Townsend pushed back — and then lectured Scarborough after he alluded that she is part of the "defund the police" movement.

Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO Dana White confirmed Tuesday that an official UFC cage fight on the White House lawn in Washington, D.C. “is going to happen,” in what the Wall Street Journal columnist Jason Gay described as “surreal, unprecedented and maybe entirely predictable.”

“Fighters will be warming up in the White House,” said White, speaking with Gay. “It’s incredible.”

President Donald Trump may already have a plan to pardon disgraced British socialite and convicted Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell, MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell argued this week — and try to distract people from it in the process.

Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in grooming, and sometimes sexually assaulting, the young girls Epstein trafficked at his "parties."

In a trial that opened on Monday, a high-ranking California National Guard officer stated he was called out and accused of disloyalty by a Customs official for balking at deploying his troops to the streets of Los Angeles due to ICE protests.

According to a report from Politico, the lawsuit brought by Governor Gavin Newsom against the Donald Trump administration claiming it violated the Posse Comitatus Act and the 10th Amendment when the streets were militarized to prevent anti-immigrant abduction protests.

President Donald Trump took to social media Tuesday to tease the upcoming Kennedy Center Honors award ceremony — while floating the idea of renaming the national cultural center after himself.

“Great nominees for the Trump/Kennedy Center, whoops, I mean, Kennedy Center, awards,” Trump wrote in an online post on his social media platform Truth Social. “They will be announced Wednesday. Tremendous work is being done, and money being spent, on bringing it back to the absolute top level of luxury, glamour, and entertainment.”

President Donald Trump is exacting "payback" on New York Attorney General Letitia James for winning a massive civil fraud judgment against him last year, wrote MSNBC legal analyst Anthony Coley on Tuesday — by tapping a pair of highly partisan and unfit prosecutors to dig into politically charged, baseless controversies.

It's part of a broader pattern of spurious legal attacks on Trump's political enemies that also involves Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA).

A press conference in which several victims of Jeffrey Epstein will speak publicly “for the first time” has been scheduled for early September in a bipartisan effort to force President Donald Trump’s hand in releasing files on the disgraced financier.

The presser is organized by Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Ro Khanna (D-CA), and is scheduled for Sept. 3 at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. It is part of an ongoing bipartisan push to compel the Trump administration to release files on Epstein, who died in 2019 awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges and is alleged to have maintained a ‘client list’ of powerful figures for blackmail purposes.

Nothing is more illustrative of the corruption and ethical lapses within Donald Trump's administration than Kristi Noem's rumored relationship with former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, who has followed her in a "non-traditional role" at the Department of Homeland Security.

That is the opinion of Slate's Christina Cauterucci, who wrote Tuesday that the alleged relationship between the two has been an object of open speculation since Trump's first term — and has not died since.

President Donald Trump heaped praise onto longtime NBC journalist Chuck Todd Tuesday following remarks comparing Trump to former President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The gushing on Truth Social bucked years of bitter animosity between the two figures.

Donald Trump's decision to make himself the main character in every major effort by his administration runs the risk that he will make himself the central target of blame if any of those initiatives go south.

According to a report from the Washington Post, the president's decision to take federal control of the policing in Washington, D.C. is just another item he placed on his to-do list that includes negotiating with China on AI chip sales and brokering peace between Russia and Ukraine -- all of which could blow up in his face.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth may have buried President Donald Trump with remarks made to celebrate his federal takeover of Washington, D.C.'s crime-fighting.

Trump announced Monday the takeover, vowing to eradicate “slums” and crack down on crime. But Hegseth's comments during the announcement could end up undermining Trump’s legal defense in a related court case.
