Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Thursday defended his strange trip to Disney World amid the ongoing partial government shutdown.

Over the weekend, photos of Graham visiting Disney appeared on social media. Graham, who is unmarried and has no children, told TMZ on Tuesday that the trip was planned as part of his efforts to work with special envoy Steve Witkoff to normalize relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel. But questions still swirled about why he chose to blow off steam at Disney World.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has reportedly pushed Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George to resign.

Jennifer Jacobs of CBS News first reported that Hegseth had asked George to take early retirement.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) criticized former Attorney General Pam Bondi after President Donald Trump confirmed that he had fired her.

"Bondi handled the Epstein Files in a terrible manner and seriously undermined President Trump," Mace wrote in a Thursday post on social media. "She has stonewalled every effort to hold the guilty accountable. The American people deserve an Attorney General who is transparent and delivers real accountability."

Fox News legal pundit Jonathan Turley warned that Pam Bondi was a "torpedo in the water" after she was fired as attorney general by President Donald Trump.

"Well, I think that the president obviously is trying to prepare for what he sees as coming," Turley explained on Thursday. "I would say that when Chuck Schumer celebrates this, he should think again. Pam Bondi is still in good favor with not just the president, but most people in that party."

Top House Republicans were reportedly scrambling after Attorney General Pam Bondi's firing threw a wrench into her possible testimony on files related to Jeffrey Epstein.

"Since Pam Bondi is no longer Attorney General, Chairman Comer will speak with Republican members and the Department of Justice about the status of the deposition subpoena and confer on next steps," a spokesperson for the GOP-controlled House Oversight Committee told NBC News correspondent Ryan Nobles.

Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones slammed the White House over an event where President Donald Trump was compared to Jesus Christ.

During his Thursday show, Jones noted that White House adviser Paula Jones had likened Trump to the Christian savior during an Easter celebration. The president also praised hawkish Fox News host Mark Levin at the same event.

Speaking just as Fox News was reporting that Attorney General Pam Bondi was relieved of her duties by Donald Trump, MS NOW’s Laura Barrón-López listed off possible long-term candidates for the job which included former Trump lawyer Alina Habba.

Speaking with host Chris Jansing, the White House correspondent reported, “I know that Fox News is reporting that this decision has come down, but our sources have told us that it was going to be, you know, potentially as early as today, but that she is out.“

President Donald Trump announced that Attorney General Pam Bondi would not have a role in his administration after she was fired from her current job.

In a Truth Social post on Thursday, Trump personally confirmed that he had ousted Bondi.

A decision by Donald Trump to praise Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) for working with House Majority Leader Mike Johnson (R-LA) to get funding for the Department of Homeland Security did not sit well with all of the president’s hardcore supporters.

On Thursday morning, the president took to Truth Social to write, in part: “Thank you to all of our Great Congressional Republicans, House Speaker Mike Johnson, and Senate Leader John Thune, for their work this week. Republicans are UNIFIED, and moving forward on a plan that will reload funding for our FANTASTIC Border Patrol and Immigration Enforcement Officers.”
