Donald Trump and adviser Stephen Miller’s grand plan to ramp up the war on drugs by blowing up alleged “narcoterrorists” in attacks from above did not pass legal muster with the lawyers at the CIA.

So they ran to a more compliant Pentagon.

Two key Senate Democrats have launched an inquiry after a ProPublica investigation revealed this week that a White House official had intervened on behalf of his former legal clients — pro-Trump influencer Andrew Tate and his brother — during a federal investigation.

On Thursday, Sens. Richard Blumenthal and Gary Peters sent letters to the White House and the Department of Homeland Security asking for a full accounting of the official’s activities, calling his actions a “brazen interference with a federal investigation.”

ProPublica reported this week that the official, Paul Ingrassia, told senior DHS officials to return electronic devices seized from the Tate brothers when they arrived in the U.S. in February. Ingrassia made clear the request was coming from the White House, according to interviews and records that ProPublica reviewed.

According to a former Donald Trump administration official, the White House is currently at work making it possible to rescind whistleblower protections if Trump or his inner circle are the ones targeted.

Appearing on MS NOW’s “The Weekend,” ex-DHS chief of staff Miles Taylor explained that what the Trump White House is proposing is “insane.”

In a rare break with President Donald Trump, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) criticized the White House’s proposed Russia-Ukraine peace plan Saturday, describing it as “problematic” while also urging Trump to reconsider.

“While there are many good ideas in the proposed Russia-Ukraine peace plan, there are several areas that are very problematic and can be made better,” Graham wrote Saturday in a social media post on X.

Current and former Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffers are growing increasingly concerned that the work they did slashing government programs and eliminating jobs will come back to haunt them with the possibility of criminal prosecutions.

Worse still is their growing belief that the billionaire Elon Musk, who recruited them, won’t step up to save them by appealing to Donald Trump on their behalf should things take a turn for the worse.

As President Donald Trump attempts to claim the mantle of “affordability” and boasts that grocery prices are “way down,” a new report tracking the price of several Thanksgiving staples showed they have increased by 10% over the last year, more than three times the rate of inflation.

On social media, the president recently trumpeted that “2025 Thanksgiving dinner under Trump is 25% lower than 2024 Thanksgiving dinner under [President Joe] Biden, according to Walmart.” Claiming that grocery prices are down this year, he added: “AFFORDABILITY is a Republican Stronghold. Hopefully, Republicans will use this irrefutable fact!”

Longtime investigators in the high-profile Manhattan U.S. attorney’s office are skeptical about what is expected of them now that Attorney General Pam Bondi has instructed them to pursue Democrats over possible ties to sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein.

According to a report from Politico’s Erica Orden, newly appointed U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton has been directed by Bondi — at Donald Trump’s insistence — to target the president’s critics in what is clearly a political attack.

Several Democratic members of the House of Representatives have filed official complaints with the U.S. Capitol Police Department after President Donald Trump endorsed a call to have them hanged.

Politico reported Friday that Reps. Jason Crow (D-Colo.), Chris DeLuzio (D-Pa.) and Chrissy Houlahan (D-Pa.) contacted Capitol Police to file reports about the threat, which Trump issued after they appeared in a video encouraging military service members to defy illegal orders. The video also featured Rep. Maggie Goodlander (D-N.H.), along with Sens. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) and Elissa Slotkin. (D-Mich.)

Donald Trump’s decision to go after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) in an early Saturday morning attack is not sitting well with MAGA fans who took to Truth Social to express their displeasure with the president with one complaining, “Ohhh My God! The government looks like a kindergarten.”

Reacting to MTG’s surprise resignation announcement in a video posted to X, Friday night, Trump wrote, “Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Brown, because of PLUMMETING Poll Numbers, and not wanting to face a Primary Challenger with a strong Trump Endorsement (where she would have no chance of winning!), has decided to call it ‘quits.’ Her relationship with the WORST Republican Congressman in decades, Tom Massie of Kentucky, also known as Rand Paul Jr. because he votes against the Republican Party (and really good legislation!), did not help her. For some reason, primarily that I refused to return her never ending barrage of phone calls, Marjorie went BAD.”

Early Saturday morning, Donald Trump lashed out at Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who stunned Washington, DC, late Friday night with her plan to resign her seat in the House of Representatives in early January.

According to the controversial lawmaker who had been one of the president’s most ardent backers, “I’m going back to the people that I love to live my life to the fullest as I always have and I look forward to a new path ahead. I’ll be resigning from office with my last day being January 5, 2026, and I look forward to seeing many of you again sometime in the future.”
